KotOR III: Here's Who, How, and Why

Allan Muir of VGUtv makes a plea for a third Knights of the Old Republic game.
Late last year EA bought the rights from Disney to make games based on the Star Wars saga for a decade. Currently there are three games in the works that we know of.

Thats the same story as the first two, although they where amazing i want something new and out there like imagine a rogue group out to destroy both the republic and sith with sleeper jedi and sith. Now that would be something.

Let us hope.

Since SWTOR failed theres more of a chance for KOTOR 3 now.

Playing the first one on my iPad man the nostalgia.

I'm sorry but that book is an abomination to the KOTOR universe and I would advise every fan of the series to completely ignore it.

Unfortunately, the old republic was the 'next game' in the Kotor franchise. Revans story was told in the game.

DarthJay, Revan himself was in The old republic :( as one of those spirits, and we were told what happened to him too. Kotor 3 would only be retelling the story now.

Really, any and every story from Revans era was told in Tor. They would have to have a sequel to Tor or something, or set it after Lukes time. Kotor and it's story have been finished.

I expect something more along the lines of Star Wars: Knights of the New Republic after Episode 7 is released. I expect it to be like Episode 1 release with lots of things aimed around it. So far we know of two things out of possibly 4 games that could exist in some stage of development even if its just conceptual for now.

EA did already state awhile back since getting the rights to them after Star Wars: TOR release mind you. That Three studios would be making Star Wars games. One of them is Bioware. The other is Visceral, and the third is DICE. Obviously they are going after Battlefront as its the biggest IP they can think of at the moment. So that is the first to come out of the deal.

Disney also has its own projects or things filtered through EA. Like Attack Squadrons or something like that.

@spinal how are you measuring SWTOR a failure, against WOW?
WOW was a once in ten years mega hit nothing comes close so if thats the measuring stick all mmo's have failed. SWTOR is 2 years in still up and running with new content added regularly and another expansion on the way. I say SWTOR is doing fine.

Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition: Was it Really Needed?

The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition has arrived for $399.99, but we wonder if it was really needed or just a simple cash-in.

We're talking about a limited edition item here, and by definition, those aren’t exactly 'needed'. But when you look at what’s included, the controller, the strap, and a few months of Game Pass, it actually turns out to be a surprisingly good deal.

What’s weird is that this is a VR headset branded with Xbox, a platform that doesn’t even support VR. And Xbox is part of Microsoft, a company that more or less walked away from all of its VR efforts. Yet somehow, this ends up being the best value available for a VR headset. If you're looking to get into VR, unless you're buying used, it’s hard to find anything that offers more for the price.

Nope, wasn't need, but It's another incentive to try GP, and retain increase or maintain subs.

It lends to the "Everything is an Xbox" marketing they have going on...if it has a screen, it's a Xbox.

I don't see the harm here, it's a limited item...shit MS and Sony have Sneaker deals as well, are those necessary? Nope, but if you like PS or Xbox, or are a collector of limited edition of stuff then, why not?

Any multiplayer online game that doesn't launch with crossplay is a big skip from me...
