Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast

THE BAD:
-single player puzzles are sometime too hard
-humungo levels
-not that it matters but my graphics card is not up to it (Hint, Hint, GET A GOOD GRAPHICS CARD)

SUMMARY:
this game is one of the best i ever played. everything about it is mostly good. i especially enjoyed toying with the stormtroopers before putting them out of thier misery, for example, if i see a lone stormtrooper i would use force pull to pull him towards me then push him back with force push. then ill use force choke and choke until he is at the edge of death then finish him off with my lighsaber. speaking of lightsabers they are da bomb! master all of the different salshes and you will be invincible! mutiplayer keeps you busy when your frustrated at the sp mode puzzles. that brings me up to the games weak points. if you like exploring, the games huge levels are a haven, if you like zooming past levels, your not going to be happy, also you cant start with the lightsaber in the first couple of levels. also the game costs much money. nervertheless it is worth every penny for in the game you are in command of 10+ force powers 100+ lightsaber moves and a wide variety of usuable caharactors in multiplayer mode (Luke Skywalker, Lando Calrissian, Stormtrooper) Kudos to Ravensoft and Lucasarts for delivering an awesome game!

THE BAD:
enemies die a little too easy
can complete the game too quickly

SUMMARY:
This game is good, but it took me 4 hours to complete so its not really the longest game i've ever played. But if you're a star wars fan i'd suggest you buy it. The multiplayer is dam good though. If you don't buy it it's definately worth renting.

THE BAD:

• The game costs about 60 or so dollars.
• Version 1.0 allows players to use the drain death grip combination against anyone which is virtually impossible to counter if drained successfully. As a result, it doesn't necessarily depict actual skill level.
• Version 1.03 basically gives a one hit kill with a saber backstab (deals about 150 damage).
• Servers via the internet are typically more unstable than other games like starcraft since most JK II server games are administered by other players.

SUMMARY:
All in all, this game is a must buy. It would be unreasonable to state that it is the perfect game, however due to the above bulleted reasons.

This game is most suited for people who like the Quake engine games, but who also yearn to engage in "additional dimensions" including force powers and saber duels. As a result, it involves coordination and expertise in accuracy (in the case of sniper scopes), movement, and killer instinct. A knack for a fast reflex is also quite handy.

Be forewarned, however, that this game can be quite addicting due to its gaming nature.

THE BAD:
The game can get boring after you've finished the whole thing.

SUMMARY:
This game is the best of the Jedi Knight series. You play Kyle Katarn, a 'retired' Jedi knight. Though the plot may be interesting, it is only around the mid-game and near the ending when the game is at its best, mainly because you can get into real lightsaber fights. Though it may be pretty unrealistic to slash your opponents so many times and they're still not dead, the graphics make up for it. You'll definitely want to get this one.

THE BAD:
needs force power selection (like on Star Wars Jedi Knight II: dark forces)

SUMMARY:
great wepons from lightsaber to stormtrooper rifle

the force powers are kool from force grip to force push.

there are also some kool mods to download.

buy it now it worth the money

(the guy you play as looks like my head of year)

THE BAD:
Takes alot out of system. Needs Cable or better to play online.

SUMMARY:
This game includes alot from the movies, then branches off and includes it's own stuff.

Single-Player
This part of the game is quite difficult until you get the hang of it. After you finish this, you might as well play the multi-player part. I would not bother with this part, I just went to the multi-player.

Multi-Player
This part is alot more difficult than the single-player. With the single, all you have to deal with is the AI, with multi, you have to deal with real people. The game seems to be just fine in multi mode. There has been no hacking to be seen yet. Very few bugs that have been corrected.

The maps are something to be desired. They have a wide range of them, and people are already starting to create thier own. There are also a wide range of game types (Capture the Flag, Team Free for All, Free For All, Jedi Master, etc). With this wide assortment, you will not get bored with this for a long while.

Patch
There is also a patch that came out which addressed the bugs I mentioned above. Make sure that when you buy the game, you go out and find the patch (v1.3), so the game will run properly.

There is another patch that will take care of 1.03. This version is 1.04. It fixes several bugs that 1.03 developed. You must have this patch to play on multiplayer!

THE BAD:
the only bad thing is i dont have a good video card

SUMMARY:
its very cool. best star wars game imo. all the good force powers,cool saber colors, cool weapons...everything. huge levels. but be sure to have a GEforce 3 or somethin like that when playing...

THE BAD:
the only problem with the game is that the single player has some very puzzling puzzles. but when your done you think that was so easy how could i miss it?

SUMMARY:
very good game. bs and dfa are nearly impossible to block and add one hit kills. there is dismemberment and all that good stuff. single player is limited but the multiplayer is great and tons of replayablity. lots of fun games types including: Free for all, tem free for all, holocron FFA, capture the flag, capture the ysalamiri, duel, and jedi master. great game i recomend it to anyone who likes twitchy games or star wars.

THE BAD:
The stupid lightsaber doesn't work under water also, the Single Player game area is very hard to beat.

SUMMARY:
the game rocks in multiplayer mode in the deathstar level. you also can use seeker droids and all that crap, to deploy those you hit ur inventory button, and to deploy a seeker cannon thingy you hit "5" on your keyboard. Have Fun.
