Thanks! It's actually been finished for a while now... It's an 80s-style horror movie about a killer puppy adopted by a household of foxy coeds. Really high-brow, cerebral stuff. About half the people involved in it worked on Kotor and/or K2...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news - yeah, K3's been confirmed as an MMO for some time, I guess the official announcement's coming soon...

I became a tester 'cause a friend of mine from school was a tester, he got the job from a friend as well - I think a good two thirds of testers come in that way. I could write a novel on the reasons I quit, but it was also so I could work full time on my movie Puppy

Well, I quit about 3 years ago, so I couldn't tell you much about K3, other than that it's gonna be an MMO so I don't know why you'd want to bother with it.
I'm a much bigger fan of Motorhead than I am of Star Wars, so I think I can sympathize with your mixed feelings. Still, it's a game I'm proud to have worked on, and I'm happy with how the design came out. I hope that doesn't sound full of myself - I'm just putting it out there for anyone else who'd like it.

Topic: Killed By Darth - Kotorhead Tester Tee (12 replies, posted in Star Wars Fan Art)
Hi, I was a tester on KOTORs 1 and 2. I designed this image 
for the tester tee when we finished the first game. (Many developers and publishers print up shirts for their teams to celebrate the completion of a game. LucasArts was too cheap, so I volunteered to design it and found a t-shirt shop to print them for us. The testers paid for their own shirts)
Anyhow, I thought folks here might dig it. The original shirt was a baseball tee with the KOTORHEAD on the front and a list of "tour dates" on the back with the birth dates and places of the test team, as well as the release dates of the Xbox and PC version. I'm now selling T-shirts, mouse pads, and other stuff with the KOTORHEAD image at Puppy Petshop - Kotorhead. There you can also check out the movie PUPPY, which was written, produced, directed by, and starred many of the KOTOR 1 and 2 testers.
I know a lot of folks rag on testers for the bugginess of the games, and on Obsdian for some of the shortcomings of Sith Lords. For the record, the guys at Obsidian are an awesome, creative, INCREDBILY hardworking bunch who were hamstrung by budget and scheduling choices made to ensure that Battlefront supplanted Kotor as LucasArts' flagship title. As for the testers, we did the best we were able.
Thanks for taking the time to check out my art, I hope you like it.
