I saw this and texted my friend who works at BioWare (perk of working an electronic store in Austin is you meet and befriend these types).
He said "You know I can't say anything. And you know my not being able to say anything comes with certain prerequisites."
He also said "Fuck you". Don't kill the messenger.

Well i love the work the studio has done, so you can thank him for me. SWTOR is a cool MMO. Just the choice of engine was unfortunate.
I do hope this comes to E3 though. I am very interested, wether its a console game or a new mmo.

He's still relatively new to the company, so he wasn't involved in making TOR. I honestly don't have a clue what title he's working on, but I know he's in charge of the UI.

Wow, that as good as confirms it. He surely would have denied it if it was fake. The fact that he can't talk about it suggests it's real and he is under an NDA.
Also, tell him there are plenty of people that appreciate Bioware Austin. I think SWTOR is pretty darn good, even if the gameplay is a bit too WoW-cloney for my taste. Assuming they either do a modern version of the old turn based D20 combat system in KOTOR 1 and 2, or design a proper new action RPG combat system for this new KOTOR game, I think it could turn out very well.

He's in the same boat as most of us in that sense. When I met him, he worked at EA and regularly joked about working at Bioware one day. Now he's working on something and won't tell me what the fuck it is.
