  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic: 9.5/10 by IGN



    Knights of the Old Republic is an outstanding game because it covers every single angle in terms of audience expectations. It's got enough Star Wars to satisfy the fans and enough pure fun to draw in people who normally wouldn't get into role-playing games. You'll see this on several Game of the Year nomination lists if not at the very top soon enough.
    Put this up there with Halo, Splinter Cell and any other Xbox game that kept you up way too late or caused you to neglect your loved ones. It grabs you early on by giving your character some cool toys to play with and some familiar Star Wars critters to welcome you back and next thing you know you've got a space ship, a light saber, a wookie and a droid. With Knights of the Old Republic, the galaxy is yours, get out there and get some.


    Kickass. Bioware rules. =)

      Yes, but that's months off...they want the interface to be better for the PC.

        It's 6 months away, not because they want the interface to be better, but because MS waved a pile of cash for Xbox exclusivity until Jan 2004. Then it'll come on PC.

          Well, also the interface.

          It doesn't matter to me though. I'm going to be in a prison until January or February.

                  I'll be at the Virginia Military Institute.

                  I won't get to play games for the first few months. I won't have time either though.

                        Looks pretty good, unfortunately it's star wars... that's such a boring realm to play an RPG in

                          I hate them doing that. I still haven't played Vice City in part because of this reason.

                              Nah, just castrated beyond recognition.
                              And released for the first time in Oz just over a week ago.
