Hello

I found more talk on Kotor III specuation. I must admit there is qutie a bit of talk about it.

Even More KOTOR?

What happen to Kotor 3? Last time I heard it was being made for Xbox and its story was to involve finding out more about the robots that where chasing you in Kotor 2.

But Xbox 360 is out and Xbox slowly dying, I doubt that Microsoft would bring a "Killer App" to Xbox. And with Mass Effect in the work, I was wondering what the plans are for Kotor 3?

The notion that there will be a third Knights of the Old Republic game seems like a foregone conclusion. However, the game itself has not been officially announced yet, so any info on said game is purely speculative at this point. Again, there's no doubt in my mind that there will be a third game. Odds are, though, that it would come sometime after Mass Effect's release, and I certainly wouldn't be surprised if it were a 360 game.

And for the record, please don't use terms like "killer app" around me. It makes my head and face swell with rage. -- A.N.

No it's not.

Knights of the Old Republic III will come out Q3 probably of 2006. Obsidian, the same developer that made The Sith Lords is doing it.

I imagine it'll be for the XBOX 360 as well as the PC.

It is more than likely to follow the story of Revan and the Exile into the Old Sith Empire. Very cool, too bad you couldn't bring Visas Marr with you, she was the best...

It appears to be yet another speculation post. Another poster who wants to show off any information she may have, or, more likely, does not have. Some of what she says is a given... such as the part about it being on the Xbox 360.

marten0305 · #35 (**permalink**) 12-15-2005, 12:12 AM

well i would still like to know where to find info on the game.

And doesn't she mean it will follow Revan and exile story into the True Sith cause isn't that where they went if i'm correct?

What we know: "are you planning to purchase an Xbox 360?" asks the currant poll on LucasArts offical site. As well it might-because a third round of Jedi justice is already coding up nicely, we hear. Osidian cut chunks of KOTOR II's story that "[didn't make sense when put in the context of the final game"- they'll likely be reinstalled for a juicy tying together of the trilogys's

This is no joke, I swear!

I will scan the proof for you shortly.

The first and third picture feature Darth Bandon and Sion.

Seeing how this officially came from a magazine, I don't know what to say. Well, I know what to say - wow.

I sincerely hope it's true.

*goes into irrational euphoric frenzy*

Hill-Shatar · #38 (**permalink**) 12-24-2005, 12:38 AM

Mmm... most seem to be sequels of games already out, and if I am not mistaken, some of these games appear to be skipping sequels. Such as Jade 3, when Jade 2 has not yet been announceed, nor as Bioware shown any overt interest in the project.

From reading through the thread, I read that another one of the games that was mentioned seems to have missed 2/3 sequels, although that may have been a typo on the writer's part.

Also, some seem contradictory on the list to the thread you posted, which is strange. They said that Bioware had another project in the making, and that it was not Jade 2. Then, Jade 3 is on that list?

Also read something about the same information coming from a magazine like this, or the same one, who put in information on Halo 3 which turned out to be... false?

The screenshots with Bandon and the like make no sense either, especially since they appear to have been dropped on the skyramp. I am heavily leaning towards little fact and heavy rumour. Sorry to spoil the euphoric mood. Hopefully it will come out, eventually...

Am I confused, or did I miss something vital?

Bastila_Shan · #39 (**permalink**) 12-24-2005, 06:19 PM

Actually I seemed to have mis-typed a dew games. I just gotta get aroun to editing my post when I can be bothered too. ;/

Hill-Shatar · #40 (**permalink**) 12-24-2005, 09:18 PM

Still Bioware has denied, fairly frankly, not to mention forcefully, that they are not currently working on anything regarding Jade 2, other than perhaps a team seeing whether or not it would be worth it.

Hi all (again)

I have found some more Kotor III talk but this time from theforce.net

feel free to agree or diagree, I won't stop you.

Cheero Bas

www.theforce.net

The last of the Star Wars prequels leaves many fans questioning the future of the franchise. While we already know the direction of Star Wars on the small screen, it's the video game future that we're all waiting with interest to see.

Kicking things off next year will be Empire At War, and judging by early previews and screenshots, this will be the strategy title that all fans have been wanting since Force Commander all those years ago.

But so far little has been mentioned about the rest of 2006 and what we can expect. So, being the curious type, I've decided to make mention a few New Years Resolutions that hopefully will come true:

* Knights of the Old Republic III: This one is a given. After the amazing results of the first two titles, LucasArts would be silly not to explore this series just a little bit further. Most will recall that some of KOTORII was removed due to time constraints, and that before LucasArts culled it's staff, KOTORIII was in some form of pre-production. So there must be something bubbling away in the pot. If there is, look towards E3 for the announcements, if not sooner.

* LEGO Star Wars II: The 2005 sleeper hit, without a doubt, was LEGO Star Wars. While not a LucasArts developed game, the title went on to become a huge success, possibly even bigger then anyone expected. Again, it would be silly not to expand this into a franchise. Personally, I believe you could get more then just one sequel out of it. But for now, look for a Classic Trilogy edition of LEGO Star Wars some time next year.

* Star Wars Galaxies: As we've already mentioned, Galaxies pulled many punches this year, some hits some misses, but mostly the series of expansion packs this year based around Episode III has helped settle the fanbase after the major changes made. There should be at least another expansion in the wings for 2006, it's just a question of what content will be included. Wise men will put money on a title forming the links between Episode III and IV. The outsider's vote may fall upon an Expanded Universe title.

* Darth Vader: This is an interesting one. Many rumours have been around for some time regarding a Jedi Knight/Outcast style game revolving around the rise of Vader and the Empire. It's all quiet on the Vader front lately, but it's possible this game may re-appear around E3 time if LucasArts make it a reality.

* Indiana Jones: We might not see our old friend till 2007, but there will be some announcements and screenshots of the new adventure over the year.

* PS3/Xbox 360/Revolution: Who knows what may come of our favourite Star Wars titles for the new console war. Already Nintendo's Revolution controller has people thinking of many original ideas, while the power of Sony and Microsoft's entries will always be interesting to follow. LucasArts' next generation titles will be on show over the coming year. Don't forget, of course, the PSP and Nintendo DS, both of which should have at least one Star Wars title released over '06.

After that, who knows. What we can be sure of is that Star Wars within the video game circle won't be vanishing into the night just yet. If anything, the new TV and animated adventures may inspire LucasArts. On the plus side, it also leaves the company with a little extra time to develop some original titles. Or there is always Monkey Island ... or Grim Fandango ... hmmm ...

Don't have the itch to argue here, since it is true, they would be foolish to let the game go unannounced or even unconsidered (to an extent) for much longer.

While it does sound true keep in mind that no official announcement has been made and as such, KOTR 3 remains little more than a hope. If we hear any new rumors on this popular Star Wars title we'll let you know.

It's nice to know that other sites hold the opinion (logical) that a new KotOR game will eventually come out. Considering Lucas Arts gave there support to the project and is basically waiting for it to be put into production.

Intrigued by the rumours in the second one about KotOR III being in production over at Obsidian Entertainment.

a good sign that kotor III is about to come is the fact that dark horse comics - the comicbook developer that gave birth to the kotor univers in the first place - is about to recontinue the all so very old sw kotor univers with a new comicbook series. will it have the same succes? will it influence kotor III? we'll see...

"Our current ongoing monthly series, Republic and Empire, will be put to rest, making way for several bright and exciting projects, beginning in January with an all-new ongoing series called Knights of the Old Republic. Set 4,000 years before the films and eight years before the very successful video game of the same name, it's a return to the Old Republic time period Dark Horse created twelve years ago in our popular Tales of the Jedi series. Written by John Jackson Miller, Illustrated by Brian Ching and Michael Atiyeh, with covers by Travis Charest (WildC.A.T.s), it's sure to get your Star Wars groove on, no matter your level of fandom."
