SUMMARY:
+Story+

The story is fantastic, you start the game by creating your character aboard a Republican capital ship. Which is under attack and infiltrated by none other than the sith, after a jedi on bored. You have no memory of how you got there or who you truly are. You meet a fella called trask and must battle through the sith forces to try to reach this jedi. As all great story lines go, your freind trask eventually falls to a sith, and the jedi eventually escapes, leaving you alone on the ship to escape. Befor you escape you also meet Carth Onasi a vital player in the...

THE GOOD:

A huge variety of weapons and apperal to choose from.
Customizable characters.
Not too long, not too short.
Great dialogue and immersive plot.
Great audio effects.
Revelutionary fighting style where you can manuvuer around the different places you were in when the combat started and almost real time too.
Awsome humorous touches.

THE BAD:
It didn't last forever.
Nothing that comes to mind.

SUMMARY:
When you start game you can customize your character which will govern which skills to learn. Skills that you will take with you when you become a jedi.
The game begins: You are a Republic Soldier and your space ship is under attack. A fellow soldier guides you part way through the ship with some skirmishes along the way and then heroically sacrifices himself fighting a dark Jedi so that you can join Carth, whos job and yours is to make sure a very important to the Republic Jedi, Bastilla...

For the mountains of glowing praise that have met Bioware's role playing game, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, it is a pretty crappy game. Now, notice the qualifier. KOTOR (KOH-tore), as millions of fans refer to it, is a good piece of software—one of the most gripping in recent memory—but it is possesses neither the polish nor the sophistication nor the ambition of similar "Game of the Year" contenders.

The Star Wars license comes with much baggage, and there are both wonderful games that utilize George Lucas' creations in thrilling ways and mediocre games slapped with an obligatory, hollow Star Wars finish. KOTOR is a frothy mix of the former and the latter; many elements are painfully average, but Bioware has a knack for knowing which things need to be done just right in a Star Wars environment. The rest…well, you'll just have to put up with the rest.

With the first five to ten hours serving as a comprehensive blow by blow of all "the rest" that KOTOR...

THE GOOD:
Storyline, addictive-ness.

THE BAD:
Bug, graphics.

SUMMARY:
The story is the main draw point of the game, and is simple to any one from the hardcore fans to the new fans. The sound was good for my tv's built in speaker. The game is very addictive so I must warn, It has me hooked to RPGs.

The only problems other than bugs that are within the game is the graphics. Some times they get a bit choppy, and aren't exactly up to par with todays average. Also it's turn based, which turns off some people. But it is simple to pick up and play and isn't turn hard to learn within a couple minutes.

But this should be a great Roleplaying game, for any one. This is a must buy for every one. The game isn't as hard if you invest in the correct skills, so make sure your ready to find alternative routes through dialouge and other forms. Overall despite it cons the game is one of the best games I've ever played.

THE GOOD:
Lots

THE BAD:
few

SUMMARY:
Okay, what can I say, I rented this and a week later it became the second game I own. I'm VERY picky about spending money but this game is a must buy. Details? okay, The plot line is fantastic, character developement is rare for a game. none of your party members are without thier own individual personality quirks. Such as The Jedi Cat-woman type character that is always in danger of slipping to the dark-side. Or the insolent assasin droid that is programmed to call humans Meatbag, "It's just...you have all those squishy parts...and all that water...how the constant sloshing doesn't drive you mad, I do not know." Trust me this guy will have you rolling. me I can't play a game that doesn't have a good story, and this is one of the best.
aside from the story i suppose you want to know about gameplay. controls are simple and easy to get used to, but I do guarantee that you will mess up on switching between...

THE GOOD:
Light Sabers and all kinds of stuff. You can upgrade and the story it amazeing. What you do can affect the outcome of the people around you and the story. The Light and Dark lets you choose what path you take.

THE BAD:
You can only level up to 20. Which doesnt let you get every skill. You can't go back to previous worlds.

SUMMARY:
This was one of the best RPGs I have to say. The story was the best I have seen in a long while and the graphics were prtty good. Its even selling at a good price; its definitly one of the better Xbox games. I would play this game just to see all the endings and the reactions I would get from the charaters and NPCs you meet. This is a hard game if you want to get everything. If u have the time you should get it. Fans will love this game. Definitly a masterpiece.

THE GOOD:
~ Graphics are great~Story line is excellent~Party member selection~Ability to customise your weapons~The choise between light and dark side

THE BAD:
~turn based combat~Not being able to explore more of the planets~Can't continue after the final confrontation~Very glitchy and buggy!

SUMMARY:
This game is quite simply one of the best Rpg games that I have played. I was really surprised at the grapics as a lot of RPG games don't have the exceptional graphics like this game. At first I thought I was going to be playing as a jedi but I was playing as a soldier instead but the game finally lead me into being a jedi, but the concept of it is quite original. The game is very addictive and your into the game straight away which I like in games. Once you start playing it's obvious that Bioware has put a lot of effort into the game as it feals so life like (especially when you get down to the planet Taris). I only wish that you could of been...

THE GOOD:
Lightside Dark side points, RPG fighting style, and great story lines.

Surprises Are everywhere and you will have to play it atleast two times to see everything.

THE BAD:
It needs better Armors and such.

And its kinda complicated at first.

SUMMARY:
This game has all the features Star Wars fans are looking for, they have some sweet attributes for each character such as Jedi Powers and Equipment.
Each character has something awsome to show you and some cool mission to go on.

Light and Darkside options makes this game more interesting and the ending builds on the excitement.

The fighting style brings a whole new way to play RPG, the Xbox has made it so easy to do.

Its such a great game, I highly recommend it.

THE GOOD:
Almost Everything

THE BAD:
Graphics can be a little "ugh" at times.

SUMMARY:
Well I got this game late last night, and I have already spent about 10 hours on it. I was skeptical at first becasue I don't really like RPG's all that much, but the back of the box got me interested. I took it home and started playing, and I couldn't stop. The worlds are expansive and make you feel like you are in control of a real person in the real Star Wars universe. I found it interesting that you could take two paths in the game which woukld eventually lead to different endings: the Light and the Dark side. Which side you end up on depends on the choices you make in your actions and in speaking to other people. The only thing that I found slightly annoying was that your main character does not speak at all. Now, I understand that this would have been difficult, as there are about 6 classes of characters. However, If they took a little more time and...

THE GOOD:

THE BAD:
----------

SUMMARY:
This game is THE best Star Wars game ever. It is classified as an RPG but has lots of action in it. The game starts with a character creator, and the only problem with this game and all other games with this feature is the lack of chracter models. You only 6 chracter models to chose from, and there are just about as many faces to chose from. There are a few more hair styles, but nothing to get excited about. You then chose your skills and feats which can be quite confusing although the game does give you some help here. THe real game starts out with your ship coming under attack. You wake up meet a guy and then choose what you will say to him from a pre-selected list of sentences as you will do for the rest of the game. Basically the rest of the game plays out like this, and it's fun. You'll then meet Bastila and follow her for a good part of the game. You'll also gaperience for each enemy you...
