Did you have a Star Wars Galaxies account and were just itching to try out the Galactic Civil War content? Maybe the interviews with Tony Tyson or Lydia Pope made you consider trying out the new Witches of Dathomir content? Now is your chance! If you had an active account between January 1st, 2008 and September 15th, 2010, then you are eligible to log in for the free week of SWG, which started yesterday November 23rd and goes to November 30th at 4 a.m PST.
All week, those players will receive a whip decorative item and a fedora decorative item. These items are replicas of the items worn by Indiana Jones from another LucasFilm franchise: Raiders of the Lost Ark. The film starring Harrison Ford is coming up on its 30th anniversary, and the current LucasArts MMO is giving away the fedora and whip in-game items to celebrate.
As an added bonus, if you choose to renew your subscription before midnight (PST) December 31st, you will be given the option to make the whip and fedora wearable items. Check the official website to find out how you can take advantage of this offer, and may the Force be with you, always.

I can't help but think this is just a sad attempt to try drum up some more interest in this game before the next batch of big MMO's comes out and buries it. Free week is all good but the free items are stupid.

With all the items in the Star Wars Universe, the depth of the Expanded Universe, the amount of fan based material, the huge numbers of books and other items from the IP, the fact there are over 14 hours of film, and they do this, it's kinda mind boggling, it really is...

Oh man...Smed just keeps reaching new lows. If I was dumb enough to still pay for this game I'd make sure nobody I knew was aware of it.
What a shame considering how amazing it used to be.
