This should have been in the original release. What little there existed of space missions was appalling. Then again, if the space combat is as boring and stupid as the land combat it won't be any better than what was there. What a terrible, terrible game. To think they abandoned making Knights of the Old Republic 3 for this abomination. Ugh.
Haven't you heard? Single player is dead. There are too many pirates and no money to be made. Everyone wants all online all the time.
Ha - I know you're being facetious but sadly the people who run things at EA really believe that despite there being plenty of evidence to the contrary.

When I first saw that title I saw this:
The Old Republic Galactic Surfer Expansion
And I thought "Cool!"
You're right, JD, we do need a Silver Surfer game.
