From the story I gather that they know it is in early development but that they are "predicting" that it would be real time and have more developed party interaction. If you read the whole article it appears that they draw on scant facts to base their perdictions, hence the reason for me thinking their might be some validity to it. Sorry about posting it in the wrong forum.

Saw this on IGN this morning and I am curious if it is true or if they are misinformed. "LucasArts' recent silence by no means equals inactivity. On the contrary, Knights of the Old Republic 3, in development with Obsidian Development, is in the early stages of creation for a late 2006 -- most likely a 2007 -- release. The game should feature more seamless interaction between NPCs and the lead character, as well as better, more economic interactions between party members. We predict the combat system will go entirely realtime, as opposed to partially realtime (the way it was in KOTOR 1 and 2), and RPG fans will be able to enjoy more distinct shades of gray recognized by characters instead of the black and white distinctions made in the first two iterations of the series." link: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/680/680220p1.html
