Knights Of the Old Republic Site
by Maarten Goldstein, Feb 28, 2002 3:16pm PSTBioWare and LucasArts have issued a press release, announcing the release platforms for Star Wars: Knight Of The Old Republic. BioWare's RPG will be released on the Xbox this fall followed by a PC release early 2003. LucasArts has also launched the game's website with more info on the game, as well as a brief producers interview. The site also offers the first six screenshots, character art and more.
LucasArts.com: Will this game be like Baldur's Gate I & II? Mike: We wanted to work with BioWare on this game because of their expertise and tremendous success with RPG games like Baldur's Gate I and II. Casey: The game is visually different then anything that BioWare has done before, even Neverwinter Nights. I think that you can expect the same type of rich story and characters as in the Baldur's Gate series, along with a completely new combat system and interface.

and deep story and complex battle system. Since the target audience has an average IQ of 75
expect it to be way dumbed down, with " a completely new combat system and interface" meaning some button masher combo system and real time combat. Ughh. Well, theres always neverwinter nights.
