No matter what comes out, the fun factor can never be compared to the first several months in your first MMORPG. I've played SWG, EQ2, WoW, EQ1, and CoH; Nothing has been comparable to the first few months in SWG (My first MMORPG).

Obviously, I'm biased, being the original Producer and co-designer of the game, but EQ 1 I think was the best for quite some time. It certainly was number one in subscribers for quite a while until finally dethroned by FFXI and then later WoW. That said, it's still around and still a great game after 7 years.

There were other games around when it game out (UO, Meridian 59), and soon after games like DAoC and AO. I also don't doubt that you had a blast in SW:G, but it was a 2nd gen game, and EQ a first. SW:G, at least in its initial form, was very much UO 2, worked on by most of the people who had been the key people in the UO dev team.
