Cool. I thought Jedi 2 was a fun game. I dug the saber fights, I may have to go pick this one up...

I think they've done a very good job with the Dark Forces and Outcast series. I agree 200% about the bread and butter in the games is the audio. As cool as a lightsaber looks in the game, what really brings it together is the "Woooommm, Wooooommm" as it slices through the air. I can make a lightsaber out of a toilet paper roll and some tin foil, its the sound that gives me a problem. :p

I agree with ND.

The music is just so immersive makes you think you're playing the movie!

I like the fact you can pick your stances and the Force Combo moves

Most memorable NPC quotes:

"Jaden Stop That!" - Kyle Katarn (if you keep jumpin on him)

or

"I thought Jedi were powerful?" (enemy lightsabre wielders)

or

"grawwwwwrhl rrrrgh" (chebacca )

most of all i love the light effects from clasing light sabres :D

A must have for any STAR WARS FAN!

My first reaction apon playing the game after I bought it was "theres $50 down the drain". At 1024x768 my PC chugged with settings turned up all the way (AthlonXP 2500+, 512pc-2700, Radeon 9800) but with the settings lowered a bit the game runs smooth most the time. Plus the beggining level was very sad. It felt like so many other games. But then the first real mission I did (the train chase) was just amazing! I couldn't stop playing from then on...well I did stop to watch some TV while my PC rebooted from one of the many JA caused crashes. Actually thats probaly the only prob is the first half of the game was EXTREMLY buggy for me. It would crash every other time you quickloaded a game. About half way through though that problem suddenly dissapeard... Who knows.

I loved Outcast, but I wanted more moves, and more jedi to fight. The hardest people to fight were the snipers, and that was just stupid IMO. In JA every one of my complaints were fixed!

All in all I loved the game! It has some bugs to be squashed but it was just simply amazing! The moves and custimiability were just awesome! I can't wait for a sequal!
