i didn't play it so i'm not familiar but in reading an article they quote it in a way that made me feel like it is. iv'e read the darth bane books and as far as i know they represent the oldest time period represented. i know there are three books due out pre bane era but is there something else i'm missing that represents early galactic republic era thats canon?

"The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in."
cool thanks i missed that.
"The analogy is that every piece of published Star Wars fiction is a window into the 'real' Star Wars universe. Some windows are a bit foggier than others. Some are decidedly abstract. But each contains a nugget of truth to them."
Star Wars Galaxies must require a putty knife and a blowtorch to see through, then.

You mean zombie storm troopers and flying cupid ewoks aren't canon?
...The spread of secondary and latterly of tertiary education has created a large population of people, often with well developed literary and scholarly tastes, who have been educated far beyond their capacity to undertake analytical thought.

According to George, Star Wars Galaxies gets a special mention as being second to lowest as far as canon ( not even counted with every other Star Wars game ), just above crossovers like Darth Vader in Soul Caliber IV. While KorOR would be second only to the films.
SWTOR would be green while SWG would be yellow.
"G-canon is absolute canon; the movies (their most recent release), the scripts, the novelizations of the movies, the radio plays, and any statements by George Lucas himself. G-canon overrides the lower levels of canon when there is a contradiction. Within G-canon, many fans follow an unofficial progression of canonicity where the movies are the highest canon, followed by the scripts, the novelizations, and then the radio plays.
T-canon[1] refers to the canon level comprising only the two television shows: Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the Star Wars live-action TV series. Its precedence over C-Level canon was confirmed by Chee[2].
C-canon is primarily composed of elements from the Expanded Universe including books, comics, and games bearing the label of Star Wars. Games and RPG sourcebooks are a special case; the stories and general background information are themselves fully C-canon, but the other elements such as character/item statistics and gameplay are, with few exceptions, N-canon.
S-canon is secondary canon; the story itself is considered non-continuity, but the non-contradicting elements are still a canon part of the Star Wars universe. This includes things like the online roleplaying game Star Wars: Galaxies and certain elements of a few N-canon stories.
N-canon is non-canon. "What-if" stories (such as stories published under the Star Wars: Infinities label), crossover appearances (such as the Star Wars character appearances in Soulcalibur IV), game statistics, and anything else directly contradicted by higher canon ends up here. N-canon is the only level that is not considered official canon by Lucasfilm. A significant amount of material that was previously C-canon was rendered N-canon by the release of Episodes I-III."
i actually thought the early devs did a decent job of keeping the physical world of star wars gallaxies relatively close although i'm not sure if its ever been covered where specific cities reside geographically on a planet. i will guess that part is iffy.
