Happy 4th of July to all my American compatriots. The company is throwing a barbeque for those of us working today. I will be replete long before I go home.
This week we had good stuff from kotorfanmedia with MoonMythology leading the line up with Crush and Alcohol Issues Lord Zeuss follows with Retribution - Interlude and Blaine Averre rounds out the Picks of the week with I'm Not Such A Bad Guy
This weeks’ Best of the best were split between the tragic Where She Could Not Follow from AthenaPrime and Dakari’s alternate universe look with Malak Rising
Well time to get fireworks. Signing off…

GameBanshee's Buck Birnbaum recently interviewed Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart and posed the following question:
"With BioWare's Star Wars: The Old Republic MMORPG on the horizon, do you personally think there will ever be a "true" Star Wars: KotOR III? Why or why not?"
To which Mr Urquhart replied: "I don't really know. A part of me hopes that there will be, because I think we can do things in the more single player story based RPGs that you just can't do in an MMORPG. Like I said, I really hope that there is one, with BioWare busy on the MMO; I hope LucasArts gives us a shot at making KotOR III."

A week off. My book Gryphonrider III has reached almost 450 pages, and thirty of them were written this week! But I took a break from that to do the critiques these week.
From Coruscant Entertainment Center we have the contestants from ‘That certain song’ contest that ends this next week. First Adavardes give us Tick Tock a descent into madness lovingly portrayed. The other is Vanir’s Intention
Over at kotorfanmedia we had a number of works running the gamut from light to dark starting with Koon’s Light Gabrielle’s dark side work Irreversible Mercury Magic’s The March of the Black Queen where the main character isn’t the bad guy, and saying good bye with Bastila Skywalker’s Awkward Memories.
But this week went to the absurd KOTOR and I by Bling Masta which tickled me so much I actually told others about it all day today.
Well the world goes on and I have more of my story to write.

Sister site StarWarsMMO.net made the road trip to this year's E3 at the Los Angeles Convention Center to get their own hands-on experience. Fortunately they were able to land an interview with Tom Nichols, Executive Producer for MMO Production at LucasArts. Mr. Nichols shared some interesting tidbits about the ties between the KotOR games and the upcoming MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Jeff: "How closely will the Old Republic's story intertwine with that of the original Knights of the Old Republic games?"
Tom Nichols: "There are some connections, and some characters who are descendants of some of the characters who were made famous by the games, but because of the 300 year time difference you won't see the exact same characters. We've talked about maybe there are some characters that do not age like humans do. Like HK-47."
Kudos to Jeff and True_Avery on a job well done and many thanks! Read the entire interview at StarWarsMMO.net.

Three schedules in as many week. 3 to 11 until three weeks ago; 10 to 7 week before last, and 12:30 to 9 this week. But now I’m on my permanent schedule.
Obviously I have no life. But I have you out there to review…
From kotorfanmedia we had a mixed bag, primarily because while I am now deep into the the Light Side Male Revan category two of the ones below should be in one of the Exile categories instead. We have Kandon Kuuson’s The Return Madison Desdemona’s The "I Love You" Song The Disciple‘s Acts of Retribution-Chapter I Gabrielle’s Click-Pop Snap-Hiss
And this Week‘s Best of the Best, Midnight Hawk with A Long Time Waiting
I have a full week off starting tomorrow, so I’m going to try to have part of a life at least.

Hidden away at the bottom of a (mostly mundane) interview with Kotaku, lead designer of KotOR II, Chris Avellone, has shed some more light on the nature of the "True Sith" mentioned throughout the game, revealing them to be the "survivors of Naga Sadow’s empire".

| BioWare and LucasArts have released an eye-popping new trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic with a distinctly ROTS-like feel, no doubt in large part due to the ROTS music in the background. Entitled "Deceived" it portrays the sacking of Coruscant, one of the events that takes place before the start of the game. Take a look for yourself at the official TOR website.

At long last, LucasArts President Darrell Rodriguez has moved past obligatory comments in press releases and has written in some depth about the company he has helmed for the past year, giving LucasArts fans some idea of what the publisher has in store for the future. Writing in a blog on developer website Edge Online, Mr. Rodriguez reviews the games being shown at E3, reveals a "heritage program" at the publisher, and reports the publisher's renewed focus on creating games with great stories and memorable characters, including building new IP.

BioWare and EA have provided GameTrailers a new M-rated preview trailer for Dragon Age: Origins. Understandable since BioWare have repeatedly said DAO is a dark fantasy. Can't wait to get your hands on this game? Mark October 20 on your calendar as the day you will be able to get your first DAO fix.
