I think they took Kyle's story as far as they could after JKII. So it's no big loss for me. Jedi Academy was okay, but I think they were starting to run out of ideas by that point anyway.
There was a KotOR 3 in early development at one point, you can check out some concept art in the coffee table book Rogue Leaders: A History of LucasArts. Looks like they were going to take it in a darker direction with another new protagonist, but LucasArts pulled the plug in favour of The Old Republic (which I guess was less of a financial risk).

@Lenigod
Yep, I know Free Radical went under, but most of them formed under a new name: Crytek UK, but because they were no longer Free Radical, they no longer had the rights.
And Rogue Squadran was freakin' awesome, but it wasn't the same as flying straight at a star destroyer in a huge spacebox. I don't think there is another Rogue Squadran game coming anyway. Sad face.
@Stevil
I did not know that there was even talks of KotOR 3 being developed, but LucasArts pulled the plug? I'm not going to say LucasArts are evil... but yeah.
Let's face it, if it wasn't Bioware and the star wars licence together, the MMO would be a huge financial risk.
A new character would have been fine for KotOR 3, as long as I could follow Revan and The Exile into the unknown regions, to see them in their glory once again. Then again, the 3 man team would be so powerful it would break star wars canon. Shame.

Meh... I saw the original movie in the theatres when it was first released... all the movies after that were a let down and I never really got into the whole story after the first movie. I've played a few Star Wars themed games, but I guess I fall on the Trekkie side of the sci fi cult thing! :)
(actually the BEST sci fi series ever was Babylon 5 with Battlestar Galactica a close second.)

Well I like Star Wars, Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica Equally! Ha!
But I agree, The newer Star Wars movies are a big letdown. In fact, the more I think about it, the more it makes me sad. At least a lot of the games were good though!

@Freefall.. WHAT??? No Babylon 5 in there?? If you like sci fi, buy the entire series on DVD. The first 3 seasons are absolutely AMAZING and tell one very long story. The characters are incredible and it's so interesting to see the transformation of who you perceive to be "good guys" gradually skew into "bad guys". The whole series plays with shades of gray and that there is no true good/evil - which of course is so different from the Star Wars/Star Trek series. It's very much a grown up sci fi series and well worth getting ahold of if you haven't seen it yet. The final two season (it's 5 seasons total) are also good... but the main story arc is contained in the first 3.
Babylon 5 was so cheap. I like how you could even tell that the marbled walls were just plywood with speckled paint and the control rooms were hastily put together on an empty stound stage (no platform risers or anything).
So very, very...cheap.

I love you too T-rav.
The sweet sound of crushed dreams. Delicous. Wait... my dreams are in there too! Damn.

I fapped... to Kyle Katarn, of course!
I had no idea he was such a "God" amongst the fanbase. I did play His Grace through Dark Forces 2 and 4, and found his mastery over both sides of the Force a bit too overwhelming.

Sigh. I want Battlefront III badly. I hate playing as Jedi especially when their lightsabers are presented as nothing more than glowy bludgeon sticks. Where is the limb severing goodness? Or we get cool powers but it seems like every enemy is has a way to counter them. The Force Unleashed was a major letdown and I doubt the sequel will be much better.
Thank you for ruining my morning Freefall :)

NO! I won't have any of it. As a fan of most of these game I'm more than willing to submit to the delusional belief that these games are in fact coming!
*covers ears* LA LA LA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU TELLING ME THE TRUTH! LA LA LA!

@Piellar
Everyone secretly faps to Katarn. Did you play Jedi Outcast? One of his idle animations is shaving his beard with his lightsaber, IT TURNS OUT HIS BEARD IS INDESTRUCTABLE.
@TriplZer0
I miss the days of lightsaber limb severing goodness too. I also hate how enemies have a counter to cool powers- I WANT TO ZAP YOU TO HELL YOU! WHY CAN'T I?! But I guess they need to stay within the age ratings. Star Wars is for kids now apparently, at least it seems that way with all this clone wars stuff.
@Loogibot
Tell me if rejecting reality works, because if so... I WANT TO BELIEVE.

Break Star Wars cannon? *Watches Force Unleashed trailer and laughs* Ah... Star Wars cannon...

Every day I wake up and have to face the reality that there will be no Republic Commando sequel. After reading this, dealing with that miserable fact of life is a lot harder to bear. Do you want to see a grown man cry? Is that what you wanted? BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
