Lucasfilm and EA unite for Bioware's MMO The Old Republic...
Following months of intense rumour and speculation, EA CEO John Riccitiello has confirmed that the Bioware MMO is tied to Knights of the Old Republic and hinted towards a stronger involvement with Lucasfilm.
Speaking to Portfolio.com, Riccitiello proclaims, "We've got two of the most compelling MMOs in the industry in development."
"And the one that people are dying for us to talk to them about, in partnership with Lucas, coming out of BioWare, which is, I think, quite possibly the most anticipated game, full stop, for the industry at the point when we get closer to telling you about it."
When pressed for clarification as to whether this referred to a Knights of the Old Republic MMO, Riccitiello answered, "Yes."
Revealing Lucas as opposed to LucasArts is, perhaps, a little telling following recent Lucasfilm trademark registrations for 'The Old Republic' and 'Star Wars The Old Republic'. Having reportedly shed much of its workforce, this information seems to suggest that George Lucas himself will be having a greater role during development.

I don't know that George cares that much about the droids. Perhaps just, "Give us KOTOR 3 or Jar Jar gets it," and then kill Jar Jar regardless.

Get an online petition made, e-mail LucasArts' community guys, get on the LucasArts boards etc. There are many ways but I'm pretty sure that LucasArts is already well aware that there's a huge demand for KOTOR 3. Right now they'll be focusing on the TOR MMO though.
