    So there's a new SW space combat game on the way. I'm hesitant to call it a sim, but it's free to play, and features several PvP modes including free for all, team dogfight and base defense.

    Looks very interesting indeed.
    X Wing Alliance and Tie Fighter were favourites of mine, back in the day.
    Hunting down Rebel scum could be a great way to relax after work!

    Yet is the important word there. Next up, complaints about OP Tie Defenders.

    The site works, but it wants me make an account with Disney, and screw that concept.

    Exactly my feelings on the matter, until I see gameplay i'm not creating a disney account, which if you actually say the words "disney account" out loud sounds pretty ridiculous

    Ironically, "Disney" makes it sound more like a Star Trek game than a Star Wars game

    "It Disney make any sense, cap'n! Ah cannae go to wahrp withoot me crystals!"

    Surprised it wasn't done when 1313 was, hopefully Battlefront won't suck will have something. One of the other Battlefront games had some nice space maps but flight gameplay wasn't really there.
