Because it has Star Wars in it and is being developed by Bioware. Either would have been enough to make the hype machine skyrocket, put the two together and it's really little surprise the hype is through the roof.

No,
some of the people who loved KotoR are upset. There are many who love this idea, or at least are very curious.

They're not charging extra, that's just another doomsday story people throw out and keep believing. What they're charging is a small amount of money that is already part of the price you're going to pay. Say, there's a $50 game, you pre-order it and pay $5 and when the game is released you pay the final $45 and get the game.
It's a simple measure to help lessen the amount of people who make pre-orders but never claim them.
