Yep, it's not a typo, <b>KOTOR 3</b> is on hold, as the team was let go. <a href=http://www.gamespot.com>GameSpot</a> <a href=http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/08/13/news_6104775.html>reports</a> that <b>LucasArts</b> is restructuring, they kicked out 31 people including the entire <b>KOTOR 3 </b> team. The fate of <b>KOTOR 4 & 5</b> teams is still unknown.

Die, Lucas. Just die and take the curse of sequilitis to the grave with you.

So why did you put "Gamespot" and "reports" in two different hyperlinks?

Wtf? KOTOR1 hasn't even been out for barely a year. KOTOR2 won't be out til 2005. Why the hell are they planning 3,4,5? That is too much...

...They usually do this, its a guideline they have to link to both the article and the main site where the article is from.

Common posting courtesy to link to the frontpage as well as to the report mentioned.


As for a Kotor 3 team even existing. WTF? Where they thinking of doing it IN-house or what? Maybe we should be happy it was canned - I can't remember when Lucasarts did something I found worth playing.

Whippo--an internal LucasArts team did Jedi Knight (the first one from 1997 or something like that). And let's not dare forget that all the brilliant SCUMM adventures were developed internally.

 

[POOPERSCOOPER]

That was in a completely different era though.

LucasArts fucking sucks now, though. Cancelling Sam and Max 2 made me hate them.

Silliness.

Anyway, LucasArts is a force that must be stopped.

 

[Diogo Ribeiro]

Silliness.

I'd use the roll eyes emoticon, but why bother? We all do it ourselves, anyway.

Yeah, but then doesn't one usually just add "Spotted at ..." at the bottom of his newpost, instead of hyperlinking all through your text?

Anyway:

 

[DarkUnderlord]

Hyperlinks are just too gosh-darned hard to handle now? Wowsers!?

They are if you're colorblind and have major difficulties seeing light grey from dark grey...

But anyway:

 

[Spazmo]

Spotted at would be if, for instance, he'd heard about this news item at GameSpot on Blue's News. It'd be kinda redundant to say that he spotted a GameSpot article at GameSpot.

 

[Whipporowill]

Yeah. I hold the OLD lucasarts games close to my heart - but as I said, I can't remember when they LAST did something wortwhile. *cough*
