Ever wonder what life would be like as a regular Trooper in the Star Wars universe? Neither have I, but Star Wars: The Old Republic makes them look just as thrilling as the Jedi or Smuggler. Thank you, BioWare, for making it harder to choose what class to be.

Video Blips:

• The more I see of Star Wars: The Old Republic, the more I wish the damn thing would hurry up and launch. I’ve already planned on playing through the entire story with my girlfriend...and then stabbing her in the back. My motivation for the betrayal has yet to be determined, though; I’ll get back to you on that.

After the break, soak in the extreme cuteness of Disney Universe, wash off the dust and grime of Monaco in Dirt 3, and burn away the filth of odd characters in Fireburst.

• Disney has decided -- yet again -- to cash in on their lineup of endearing characters with Disney Universe. As a 24-year old, hot-blooded male who listens to metal, I can’t say Disney appeals to me much anymore. That all depends on how much I’ve had to drink, though; Ariel looks pretty damn good after about five shots of Jim Beam.

• The videos of Dirt 3 sure do a nice job of showcasing how pretty the game looks. One thing I’ve noticed is how majestically the cars turn corners -- probably because they’re being driven by professionals. That’s a different story when my pessimistic ass gets behind the wheel.

• For those of you with felonies for driving a flaming car wildly through town, Fireburst might be your game. I can’t quite understand the concepts behind the characters, though. I get that nutty car games usually have equally batty characters, but these are just embarrassing.
