Knights of the Old Republic MMORPG

I’m a huge fan of Star Wars and many many things Star Wars related (but not all). I was just reading The Flog and was alerted to this awesome news about BioWare‘s new MMORPG.

New MMORPG? Yup. And it turns out that it may very well be based on the Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) universe. Now that would be super sexy. Star Wars: Galaxies was a definite flop…but BioWare is a whole different caliber of game development. I have serious high hopes in their abilities and will be excitedly watching as information on this game becomes available! My fingers are crossed that the game actually is a Star Wars game. With EA Games’ recent acquisition of BioWare and Pandemic Studios (pdf), this seems like more of a possibility.

w00t!

    oh great… Now a gotta pay ten bucks a month. Why couldn’t it be a singe-player RPG like the first 2 games? It’ld be so much better ‘cuz then I won’t be wasting 10 bucks each month to catch up with all those geeks who would play 6-8 hours each day.

  2. Good lord i hate mmo’s expecialy one based around the sw universe, seriously this game has a record of 2 succesful rpgs, one not as astounding as the other but still pretty good, then there gonna catch it all on fire with a mmo. Really, i dont like dealing with people in the real world as it is, but now if i buy this i will be doing it in the virtual world too? Please let these rumors stay rumors.

    I think this is a great idea. Hopefully they will not repeat the mistakes of StarWars Galaxies though. I doubt that they will. Notice that Sony is not associated with this project.
