Knights Of The Online Republic: KOTOR MMO Is Go

Hopefully not. Bioware are developing it, and it's EA not Sony who're publishing it. MMass Effect?

Hopefully you can play as the Death Star.
Actually more realistically I hope the missions won't be like the side-missions in Mass Effect and that you won't constantly be ganked by twenty Jedi. Also, I would have preferred KoTOR3.

Obsidian are sitting on the script for KOTOR3 apparently, just waiting on a green light to make it.

Mass Effect-esque would be nice, but I'd better be able to play that blue alien type that Ayla Secura is. Oh, and Simon, the Killer Ewok.

She looks like a Twilek, which was a playable race in SWG wasn't it? Jabba's dancer and his right hand man, Bib Fortuna, were the same race. They're a pretty well established (storywise) race.

Yeah, she's a Twi'lek. I know they were playable in the old RPG, as my character was a rather grumpy one.

I might be interested, given that every other MMONG has bored me shitless recently.
