Interesting.... the consensus ive heard is that its not too great. I personally encountered numerous bugs, and have read about a bunch of other ones.

I think its more to do with the first one being so good, and then the new developer (Obsidian) making the second one not even close to the standards of KoToR.

I like the story and basis of the second one much better than the first.
It's by far the best interpretation of what the force is, and how it works etc.


We'll settle this with pointy hot sticks, Cam.

LMAO in KG's first youtube video @ 2:04 - "PSP?!?!?!?"

I can't believe I didn't notice that....

I've loved star wars since I was a kid. No doubt my favourite has to be Ep. IV. Its the old story about some kid being thrusted into a life he's in no way ready for. And even though some of the lines are corny and some of the effects are cheesy, it made space seem like it was the new wild west. Outlaws, and all.

Second has to be Ep. VI, RotJ just had some classic moments, like Han saving Lando when he was half blind or Ewoks pWning Empire AT-STs.

I guess it might just be nostalgia, but truth be told I was something like 13 when Ep. I came out, I really didn't know what to expect, sure I'd watched the original 3 before, but I didn't really walk into the theater with a plethora of movie critical knowledge, more just going in because I loved sci fi in general. That original feeling that space was a whole new world waiting to be explored seems lost in the new trilogy. In fact its only in games that I still find that feeling as far as Star Wars go.

With a series like star wars, however, one more question needs to be asked BaB, whats your favorite game(s), lord knows theres been enough.

The ones that really caught my imagination has to have been:

Shadows of the Empire for N64
Dark Forces (and all of its sequels, including Jedi Knight, Jedi Knight 2, and Jedi Acadamy)
and of course, a game I spent at least 100 hours with: Tie Fighter...might still be the best space sim yet IMO

EDIT: of course, and KoToR I and II...i don't know how i forgot those....

Just to be fair, Obsidian was really rushed by LucasArts to release the game by the holiday season. They had planned for a lot more few more worlds and a better explained ending. I blame LucasArts for KotORII, not Obsidian.
