Knights of the Old Republic MMO Confirmed

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the long-time-coming dept.

Zafsk writes to tell us Gamespot is reporting that in a surprise move from E3 2008, EA's CEO John Riccitello announced that the long debated BioWare MMORPG is going to be a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic sequel of sorts. Currently the KOTOR MMO is slated for a 2009 release. "BioWare's first Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic game was released in 2003 for the original Xbox and PC, and was named the year's top RPG by GameSpot. An Obsidian Entertainment-developed sequel was released in 2004 and 2005 on the same two respective platforms. Both critically acclaimed games are set several thousand years before the events of the Star Wars films, and cast players as adventurers who eventually become powerful Jedi Knights."

    It doesn't matter to me. I sold my copy to EB and used the credits to buy Wii games.

    I heard that the reason they cut so much out was that EA brass HAD TO HAVE THE GAME OUT NOW. It didn't matter how much got cut out, left out, or left in.

    After all, it's just a game. Who cares if it's fucked up?
