BioWare-LucasArts Joint Project Announcement Coming Oct. 21, Probably KOTOR MMO
Posted 10/07/08 at 07:03:34 PM | by Nathan Grayson

We don't get excited about much these days. When all we could muster over Deus Ex 3 deets was a guarded "Neat," it began to dawn on us that we might be suffering from chronic peace of mind, and that made us kind of upset, but not really. Fortunately, the kings of inapproPriate capitaLization have alerted various media outlets that they plan to trot out their highly anticipated collaborative effort on October 21. It's been all but confirmed that the LucasArts-BioWare tango has birthed a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic MMO. And we're totally stoked.
The invitation, stamped with both LucasArts and BioWare's respective logos, boasts that "The wait is over," and gives members of the press a come-hither look with promises of "the official unveiling of the game that's been rumored about for years."
Gamasutra notes that the public may not see the game until a few days after the unveiling, thanks to embargos. Even so, we're marking down the minutes until BioWare and LucasArts yank the curtain off their latest (final?) group project. We'll make sure to give you a heads-up when it happens, assuming our keyboard doesn't malfunction while it's floating in a puddle of our drool.
Lookout SOE

If this game is implemented correctly, something tells me that Star Wars Galaxies days are numbered. Then again, the last time I logged in when SOE sent me a freebie month, the server was pretty much dead at that time, and I played on a server with one of the largest populations (Ahazi).
I hope LucasArts gets that Star Wars fans don't want another game showing up with great potiential that ends up getting trashed by people like John Smedley.
I liked the two games, but

I liked the two games, but neither one of them really had enough personality to warrant an MMO. Bioware almost always makes a good game, so it will probablly be a pretty good game.
