You Have Failed Me For the Last Time, Sony Online Entertainment.

Cue the force choke.

Last week, there were rumblings that Bioware was working on KoTOR III, a MMO version of their signature spin of the Star Wars universe. Behold the official unofficial announcement by LucasArts and Bioware of an undisclosed joint venture. Could this be a mere sequel in the KoTOR line? Unlikely. If it were, the companies would likely simply reveal the new product. The rumor mill spins that SOE's contract isn't up yet and until it is, LucasArts has to keep any gleeful plans it has with Bioware under wraps.

So surely this is the dawn of a new Star Wars MMO. And I find myself squealing like a 14 year-old girl at a Justin Timberlake concert. No, no. I'm squealing like a stuck pig at Easter dinner. It sounds like this: "Eeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee," only without any snorting.

Suweeet cherry pie!
