It seems that SOE is
working on a new free to play MMO based off the Star Wars: Clone Wars cartoon. Free to play with micro transactions of course.
Based on the successful Clone Wars animated TV series, Clone Wars Adventures will be a free-to-play MMO that, like Free Realms, will be targeted at a younger audience. The virtual world will let players take on the role of a Jedi, Padawan, or Clone Trooper and will feature popular characters like Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Yoda. The game will also feature a number of minigames, ranging from lightsaber duels to speeder bike racing. Players can also decorate their own living space, customize a droid companion, pilot a spaceship, and play an in-game collectible card game.
Update: Added debut trailer:

SWG was fucking awesome tbh before all that big combat update shit. But i played that game from launch all the way up to that update that tried to make it like WoW and changed the classes from like 34, to 8 or whatever. So fucking dumb.
Player base was good, wasn't very noob friendly/learning curve was huge so the faggots were few and far between. I'll give this a shot but i really doubt its gonna come close to what SWG used to be.
Man i hope Star wars: The old republic is good.

I cant see myself playing this though, definitely waiting for SWTOR.
although my fondest memory of swg was cruising with my guild on landspeeders just outside bestine and seeing our first jedi on bria. word spread quick and a large crowd gathered at a safe distance away from the jedi to watch him slaughter trash mobs lol.
Noone attacked him even the BH's cause it was just so cool to watch!
But man i remember before they had transports...going to krayt graveyards lol...such a hike..then some tool saying "will duel no killing blows" then KB's you and your back 10km away respawning lol..
This mmo looks like it will be too arcadey for my liking.
