EA, BioWare: 'The Wait Is Over'

Posted by John Manalang - Tuesday, October 07, 2008 2:17 PM

There it is, the ultimate teaser image for the as-of-yet to be confirmed MMORPG based on the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic universe:

The image has a definite influence from the KOTOR level design as well as the font, but again, we'll see what they have in store for us...possibly this October 21.

It's going to play 10x better on the PS3!

Posted by chaos189 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 2:45 PM

my guess is its really KOTOR III, and the MMO was probably just to throw us off

The wait is over? So, I can go buy this game now? Sweet!

@ GayForSony

I am confused, when did KOTOR ever get released for PS3 that you could make a comparison....better yet any BioWare game


On topic I have mixed feelings about a KOTOR MMO. Kind of hope is is KOTOR 3.

Posted by neoix - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 2:55 PM

ditto on that one, I'd buy KOTOR III instantly

Posted by xSniper209LHSx - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:06 PM

KOTOR sux anyway

Posted by Cheapy - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:06 PM

So many questions, like will it follow the story lines of the other two? What are the systems requirements, because if I can't play this I'm going to rob a Best Buy.

Posted by gravy666 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:15 PM

So, they tell us that the wait is over but don't tell us what to wait for. We're actually still waiting. The wait is not over yet.

single player = good

MMO = gay

Posted by UsefulPlayer1 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:41 PM

Is it PC or console I think is going to be a big question. I mean if its an MMO, there are MMOs for the consoles so I wouldn't take a look at my system specs just yet.

Posted by Warheart1188 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:44 PM

@GayForSony

PS3??? Are you kidding me? BioWare never made anything for Sony.

We all know this will be for PC and maybe even 360 since KOTOR 1&2 (and Jade Empire) was such a huge success on the original Xbox.

Posted by purewitz - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:56 PM

You know I've been one that has been hoping its an MMO. Although after looking at the original press release again, it does only say that LucasArts and BioWare are working on a Ground-Breaking Interactive Entertainment Product. It could be an MMO, but again it could be an offline game as well.

Posted by coolperson - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 3:57 PM

Please don't be an MMO!!!!!!!

Posted by skywalker1055 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 4:02 PM

I'm not paying a monthly fee, even if it is KOTOR. sigh...I just want KOTOR III.

I'll have to check it out.

Posted by xBlaCkBiRdx02 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 4:16 PM

@GayForSony

Umm... When did any game from Bioware go to a Playstation Platform... None! This game will most likely come to Only Xbox 360 & Pc only.. Dont get mad, Because its true, Bioware has always been Supportive to Only Xbox and Pc..

Posted by mr_nice_guy - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 4:20 PM

John Manalang... you dont even know if it is star wars so how can you be so certain that it is something as crazy as a kotor mmo? im not saying its not, i just think that is a ridiculous assumption for something you hardly know about

a kotor mmo would be dumb anyways, kotor 3 would be the biches

The pic says LucasArts, has the same text as the other KotOR games and has a Sith Temple environment.

i agree pure more likely thats gunna happen guess we"ll just have to wait

Posted by cogadh - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 4:59 PM

Apparently a lot of people missed when EA's John Riccitiello "accidentally" revealed back in July that BioWare's upcoming MMO actually is the mysterious partnership with LucasArts. Since this seems to be a KotOR announcement from LucasArts and BioWare, that pretty much confirms that the game will be a KotOR MMO.

Way to ruin a great game, LucasArts.

Posted by The_Big_Ed - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 5:12 PM

I think its KOTOR 3

Posted by PukeFaceFatty - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 5:18 PM

I hope its KOTOR3 and not an mmo to. MMO's are for people with no life, I just dont have the time or will power to play a game for almost a year just to level up to the last level.

Posted by puffdaddyben - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 5:38 PM

uber pwn but plz be koto 3!!!!

Posted by PkrPlr4LIFE - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 5:47 PM

The last thing the world needs right now is another MMO. There are too many as it is. They haven't even put one out on the 360 yet. If they want to make an MMO, Make 3 first then the MMO.

Posted by DaBigFatCow - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 6:45 PM

I almost hope that it is KOTOR 3, however an MMO would be ok. I have been waiting..... KOTOR is my second favourite game of all time next to StarCraft.

Posted by LeadCommandoXBOX - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 7:05 PM

OMG!!! If it is I will have to get it. Whether it be an MMO or reg RPG I dont care! This is my favorite game series and made by favorite company!

Posted by deleted_C7D2E261-C77D-4DB7-8461-CE9C18D86FF6 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 7:20 PM

Please god be KOTOR 3 I mean an MMO would be cool but that can wait I want number 3

Posted by Shadow_B_jamin - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 7:31 PM

yes!!!

Posted by amaya8550 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 7:36 PM

I LOVE the KOTOR series, but I will truly cry if this is an MMO. KOTOR 2 from Obsidian left off on that stupid Cliffhanger, and nothing personal I want to know what happened to Revan and my other character. Besides, I can't afford a PC capable of an MMO

Posted by autowolf - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 7:41 PM

I'll be happy weather its kotor three or a kotor mmo.

Posted by KobraKid - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 8:02 PM

well i just peed on myself....FINALY YESSSSSSS
FINALY!!!!!!!

Posted by stageNinja - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 8:12 PM

Maybe this one will have a decent storyline.

Posted by The_Big_Ed - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 9:01 PM

Hopefully its for PC as well cause I cant afford a 360 atm.

Posted by ps3_fanboy - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 9:43 PM

@ the_big_ed

You cant afford $200. Lame and at that KOTOR Rocks out and regardless of system and or specs this game will be bad ass. and honestly i have both systems and i play my 360 more for online. sony has alright games but 360 by far has more.

Posted by implodinggoat - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 10:12 PM

Great, another damn MMO; maybe one day we'll get a real KOTOR 3.

Posted by smroadkill15 - Tuesday, October 7, 2008 11:10 PM

KOTOR 3 will probably be on the 360 and pc only.

SPAM DARKSIDE CHARS

Posted by purewitz - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 3:32 AM

I don't know where people got the idea its going to be an MMO. According to the original official press release from October 30th, 2007. It only states that LucasArts and BioWare are working on a "Ground-Breaking Interactive Entertainment Product". So that could be online, offline, or both for that matter. Plus no where in the press release does it say its a Star Wars game either, but who knows it might be. So stop spreading rumors, just wait until October 21st and we will all know what they are working on. Also where this "The Wait is Over" pic come from? I have not see it up on LucasArts' website or BioWare's website either. For all we know it could be some photoshop joke like those Transformers 2 poster awhile back.

note: The original press release can be found at www.lucasartsbioware.com .

BioWare I love you

Posted by tvj2004 - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 9:24 AM

New KOTOR?! Yes!

My jedi will be so strong in the force...I won't even have to use my lightsaber.

I wonder will the new title use that HAVOK technology.

Posted by cogadh - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 9:36 AM

@purewitz
On July 17th, John Riccitiello from EA said:
"We've got two of the most compelling MMOs in the industry in development... the one that people are dying for us to talk to them about in partnership with Lucas [Arts is] coming out of BioWare, which is, I think, quite possibly the most anticipated game, full stop, for the industry."
Now we have a postcard (the picture above) sent to the gaming media from LA and BioWare, obviously picturing a Star Wars environment and using the KotOR font. Combine the two and you come to the conclusion that this is going to be a KotOR MMO.

Posted by Shockwave562 - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 10:42 AM

i don't understand why it would be an mmo. what will the reaction be from it's biggest fans? I want a compelling bioware story not 800,000 jedi wandering around different planets! have they not seen how upset kotor fans are about the mere possibility of an mmo. i guess we'll all know soon

Posted by Shockwave562 - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 10:46 AM

“BioWare’s mission is to deliver the best story and character-driven games in the world, delivering powerful emotional experiences to our fans.” said Ray Muzyka, chief executive officer, BioWare."

How then do you explain an MMO? where does the story and character driven experience come in? how is that possible

Posted by opticzero - Wednesday, October 8, 2008 3:12 PM

I hope it's better than Galaxies...that game sux!!!

Posted by chainer098 - Thursday, October 9, 2008 10:59 AM

Why are there so many people complaining and saying that they should just go ahead and make KoTor 3 first. when they are unvailing what it is on Oct 21 you do realize that this means that the game has been in development for awhile and that they are almost done with it right. Besides ITS JUST A GAME GET OVER IT. they will still end up make a KoToR 3 SP so STFU and let is go already. Just sit there pop your zits and wait you frikin no life children.
