...with KotOR III? I have heard rumours everywhere about it, but can't find any substantial information (or I'm not looking hard enough, which is most likely the case).
Is it in development - and if that's the case, by whom?
Okay, so what's the deal...

It's unofficial information for the most part, but there are indeed rumours flying around that it is being developed by Obsidian Entertaiment, with expected announcement in 2007.
There are multiple sources to these bits of info, but I'm pretty confident that to some extend they are true, since there is no reason to suspect that Obsidian should abandon its flagship game series
Edit: And George Lucas has been positive about the games so far, and that is somewhat important considering he holds the Star Wars merchandise license.

Cool. All things considered, KotOR II had the premisss of being a much better game than the first one, but it all fell through on Obsidian being rushed by the publisher (IIRC). I hope they get enough time with this one. 
...and it's making him bloody rich, too. Anyone else but me looking forward to the TV-series?Edit: And George Lucas has been positive about the games so far, and that is somewhat important considering he holds the Star Wars merchandise license.

Yeah, I sure hope they get the time they need. I think they received well enough feedback to warrant more time for development, but as we know, they don't always get that time.Cool.

I'll probably buy the new series when they release season boxes, I'm awful at watching anything on TV, I always miss an episode or two.

Uh guys, what have you been doing since I've been gone? I posted news on who's involved in making it including details on the story, characters, plot, etc... in the 'Any News' section of the boards. Reallly, I surprised you missed it, it's been sitting there for months...so go and check it out, all the info is in the attachments. Your Welcome, Anonymous...

I was sifting around the web today when I discovered some interesting stuff about the Exile character in Kotor II...
Just go to Wikipedia.com and type in Jedi Exile.
They have some good insights on the Kotor II plot that was at times hard to follow, it really fills in a lot of the gaps...
And the most shocking is the Jedi Exile cannically is female, their even thinking of giving her a name for the third installment of the series...
So go check it out, it blew me away...

One thing wrong there tho...Azkul had no connection to Czerka...he was hiring some mercs away from them, but even those mercs werent loyal to Czerka (as you seen if you helped czerka on telos). But yeh...I already knew that the exile was (in canon) female (and if I'm not mistaken, darkside)...while Revan is (in canon) male (and if I'm not mistaken, lightside)

I posted what I think will take place in Knights III on my board a while back but I'll try to keep it short here...
I believe in the end of the game Revan (lightside) the Exile (darkside) will fight at the Trayus Core on Malachor V to decide the fate of the galaxy....obviosly it will take different angles in the story to get them there but I am convinced that's what they'll lean towards...Revan will find a way to defeat the real Sith (either killing them or casting them out) and restore order in the galaxy and the Exile will try and form a union with the true Sith to destroy what's left of the Republic and Jedi...however they piece it together I think this next Kotor will be the end of the three story saga ending it in true Star Wars fashion...where they take the Kotor series after that is anyones guess....
Your thoughts???...

For the third game, I think it will be Revan and the Exile teaming up to fight the true source of evil. It was alluded to a couple of times in the game. I'm assuming it is some sort of uber-Sith force. I don't think it will matter then whether Revan and the Exile were light-side or dark-side...this Sith force is going to destroy them all, hence the need to team up to defeat them.
As a player, I would like to be given the option to play through as either Revan or the Exile. I would also like to see some characters from KotOR I & II. It would also be nice if the loose ends from KotOR II were tied up.

Well that's a nice thought but I think your wrong...the storry I think will be much more complex than that...that way it gives you different angles like the previous two games to complete it...but everyones entitled to their own opinion so no harm meant...Anonymous.
