This was probably my favorite game to come out since.... well since the original KOTOR! For all the praise heaped on Half Life 2, I simply had far more fun playing Jedi than I did in HL2, and more importantly the replay value in KOTOR2 is far greater than Valve's latest release. I'd highly recommend giving this one a try if you haven't, the only possible negative is that if you really don't like RPGs then this one may turn you off.

Must be honest I love the jedi Knight series but having tried the original KOTOR I was only able to play it for about 30 minutes before I got totally frustrated. Guess I'm just not an RPG fan.

Thanks for the review Rondog

Yeah ive managed to struggle through both KOTOR's. I tried to write the review from a RPG fan p.o.v. But overall I still preferred Jedi Academy.

I found the second KotOR to be a little incoherent. For me, the first one still riegns supreme.

Yeah, true. Does any know anything I should change to make it better? Thats for my next review. Possibly Republic Commando, or Battlefield 2, or Call Of Duty too. (What can I say, im a StarWars and FPS fan)

SCREEN SHOTS!!! And a compairison of the older game if it's a number 2 game (ie Battlefield 2) (which I'm really looking forward too)
That's all I can think of for now.

Plenty of screen shots is always good, we've got lots of bandwidth at AOA.

Have a look at this article on subjective game reviews:
http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=22319

I quite like the idea.
