The Second Life Of Star Wars

Game developers haven't catered very well to Star Wars fans who want to live in George Lucas' world. While there's innumerable action and strategy titles based on the franchise, and the single-player RPG Knights of the Old Republic series is beloved, fans who joined Sony Online's Star Wars Galaxies hoping to roleplay together were soon disappointed. Though lead designer Raph Koster originally envisioned a complex society where players could live and work in the Star Wars milieu, Sony eventually revamped it as an action game-- provoking player mutiny. (Among the disgruntled roleplayers, by the way, was the leader of a large Galaxies players association, who left for Second Life, re-dubbed herself Suzanne Soyinka, and founded a popular mini-MMO of her own: City of Lost Angels.)
