Anyone think it'll actually happen?
I personally would give almost anything to see them make it, the first two were so good, I just want them to finish this story that may actually be better than the movies

I doubt it will happen, but I for one would LOVE to see it.

the plot would be a little stretched if they wanted to have it remain canon.

Not exactly... there is still about 48 years between KOTOR II and the time the republic was able to start recolonization of the galaxy. The sith left over from the Shadow war destroyed themselves, but the true sith that Revan had gone to stop weren't destroyed, as far as we know. So the fact that they don't fill in this 48 year gap with any history gives the developers an ample amount of time to portray what happenend with Revan, how did the Outcast help him against the true sith, what happenend to the entire team after KOTOR I, and how all the desolving factions finally got completly together? If you remember the end of KOTOR II really didn't have an ending, Goto's true intensions weren't exactly revealed, and T3-M4's memory bank wasn't read by anyone. I think if they don't make a third one there will be riots wink

from PURELY a developers standpoint (not a fan's) making a 3rd kotor will risk stepping on the toes of other liscenced writers/developers and cause contiuity and legal issues

How so? There is an entire 48 years in which no history is written taking place after KOTOR II. And legal issues aren't exactly a problem, it's all underneith Lucas arts in some way

Sorry, Lucasarts is not the right name for the franchise I don't think, but I can't think of the name right now, as it is almost 11:30

You're forgetting computer titles, books, compendiums, and spinoffs that all are liscenced and confirmed as Canon by George Lucas... bits and pieces of those years are covered in these.

Dude, I got the cronology, I have the wikipedia link to the story line in my web browser bar, and there are only two games covering that time periode(so far), that would be the two KOTOR's... if you have the proof I'd like to see it

Wikipedia can be edited by ANYONE and only has data compiled by those who visit it... I can go right now and make wikipedia say that Clark Kent was Lukes father. The games I refer to are mostly Apple/Commodore games and educational software. As for the rest, its in various novels and compendiums.

But wikipedia edits their own work... so if it's wrong... it'll be out of there within a day. And you still haven't given me names or specific story lines

because the books, (mainly a set of lexicons) belonged to my roommate scott in college two years ago. They dictated many events, locales and personages throught the Starwars continuum. I don't know the names of these books because I've only read them a few times a long time ago. So call me an idiot, liar or some such thing if it makes you feel big, but despite my memory problem such books DO exist.

BUT thats beside the point:
The point is that The Starwars universe has too much informatation already settled about that period and beyond to make a worthwhile game in the scope of the KOTOR series. (THIS IS GOING PURELY by what was stated in the movies, existing KOTOR games and The Complete Visual Dictionary of Star Wars: The Ultimate Guide to Characters and Creatures from the Entire Star Wars Saga )
While I would LOVE to see a KOTOR III, If they tried to make it as involved as the first two they'd have to man-handle so much that they'd A) piss fans off when they get something wrong or B) sacrifice gameplay trying to stay canon.
