Oh man don't get me started on that. The time I spent first disarming the troopers, then Force Throwing off of cliffs or, as you said, Force Jumping over top then Pulling up to me.

Not to mention getting a maxed out Grip, clutching a reborn and slamming him into walls until he collapses.

Makes me want to play Outcast all over again. Wish I still had my Academy disc, but I lent it to a family member and never got it back...

This is tough, but here goes:

1&2. Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2, can't decide a which I like more. Revan might give 1 the edge over 2.

3. Rogue Squadron N64, so many memories playing that game for hours. It was also very addicting.

4. Shadows of the Empire N64, again the nostalgia plays a huge part in this one. Again, very addicting.

5. The Force Unleashed. The second one had updated graphics and better game mechanics, but the story of the first was so great and Galen/Starkiller was such a cool character.

It's so hard to pick just 5...

I like 2 better in terms of gameplay, and customization. There were awhole bunch of lightsaber options to choose from in the game, I always went with orange or bronze. The different equipment was way more selective, especially the robes, the Jedi Master robes were very hard to get, I only got them once.

1. Like everyone else Knights of the Old Republic was fantastic. Amazing story and great gameplay and of course the sequel...

2. Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords took it's predecessors story telling and mechanics and took it to another level. And now with the restored content available, it's like a whole new game!

3. The Old Republic. While we didn't get a Kotor 3, this is the next great thing. I was hooked by the beta and fell in love with that classic story telling. I could never keep up with the content though so I stopped playing and ended my subscription. The F2P format isn't nice to non subs so if I get back into it, I'll have to resub lol.

4. Jedi Outcast. My dad got me into this game and I enjoyed Kyle Katarn's adventures and story after RotJ. The sequal was good as well and I wish they could've continued this series.

5. Star Wars: Battlefront. I know it's not out yet but this looks like it could be the beginning of a legacy of new star wars games on next gen graphics. The gameplay at E3 sold me and I'm looking forward to what DICE has in store for us. Been waiting 10 years for another battlefront game!

You're definitely right about all that. KotOR II was definitely a great game that added onto what the first game already made great. I guess the only thing about that game I didn't like was the lack of closure at the very end. To me it felt like the story, while complete in terms of the game, wasn't really over. Had KotOR III been made not long after, and had it continued with either Revan or the Exile's story beyond the events of the first two games, it would have probably felt more satisfying to me.

I know SWTOR: Revan and the SWTOR game basically continue the story, but it never really felt the same. I liked the book, but I never really got into SWTOR enough I guess. I have the game installed, but I discontinued my subscription long ago and haven't played it in ages (mostly because my computer is now old and barely working lol).

All that being said, you could say I have a bias towards Revan. He's my favorite character in all of SW Lore, new canon and legends/EU combined, afterall .

1. SWTOR

Ah ah ah!! Kidding.

1. KOTOR 1: reasons are the same than the obvious stated above. Though I liked KOTOR 2, it lacked some cool stuff from the 1st, not in features but in story telling. The main quest was far from being as good as in KOTOR 1, the graphics had not evolved much, and there no real new Force powers or capabilities. KOTOR 1 however, I remember playing it and thinking: I must finish this quick else I won't be able to study and pass my exams. Good times! I actually bought it again recently on Steam. Having lots of fun with it. I particularly like the step by step fall to the dark side or going up the light side.

2. Jedi Academy I & II: Loved the story, loved the quests, loved to jump all over, push troopers around, etc ... Grabbing people by the throat and letting them fall into lava was so much fun! (we sound like psychopaths, you do realise that people?). Interesting stories, seeing Luke Skywalker older was pretty fun as well, and the lightsabers throw to cut down trees or people was fun as well.

3. SWTOR: I love RPGs and MMOs and Star Wars, anything that combines at least two of those is usually a hit for me. Liked the richness of the story missions based on your choices and how you want to go around completing quests. LOVE the storytelling, the ability to develop actual relationships with your crew and all. That is super fun!

4. Star Wars : Battlefront II. How many hours have I spent on Kamino headshooting droids? Don't know, probably won't ever know, surely do not need nor want to know (too many hours, I probably could have gotten a PhD instead of playing).

5. No actual fifth game, I played Jedi Outcast, but not enough to get a real feeling off of it nor have any actual opinion of it. I am however REALLY LOOKING FORWARD to the new Battlefront. It looks amazing, promises tons of features and thousands of hours of fun either on solo ops or multiplayer missions. I like the fact they're bringing back the "Hero" feature, giving a Jedi or Sith to a random player on the map.


All in all, I liked every Star Wars game I played, and I particularly liked anything involving Revan. That guy probably could get rid of Yoda in a finger snap and would have gotten rid of Palpatine quite easily I think. I love this character and wish we had seen more of him in other games or the EU.

Recently I wold have to say,
KOTOR
And Force Unleashed

But I remember loving
Dark Forces PC
X Wing PC
And Rogue Squadron 3D on Xbox

Has anyone tried the new arcade game yet?

A few weeks ago, I was over in Ocean City, NJ with some friends for a day trip. We were there mostly for mini-golf and pinball, but one of the arcades had the new Star Wars BattlePod arcade game. Needless to say, I played it a few times and spent several dollars on it.

Overall, the experience was a lot of fun, but I don't see it as the type of game you can play over and over. There are 5 or 6 missions (don't remember) that are key events from the original trilogy. (i.e. ANH Death Star Trench Run, ESB Battle of Hoth, RotJ Endor Forest, RotJ Death Star II, and 1 or 2 others that I didn't play and don't remember.)

I played both Death Star battles and the Hoth Snowspeeder missions. I also watched a friend play the speeder bike mission on the forest moon of Endor.

All of the missions are packed with lots of exciting visuals and action. For instance, the battle of Hoth does more than just send you past AT-ATs and AT-STs. They added in waves of TIE fighters attacking the Rebel Transports that you need to help defend and end up flying past, over, and under at times. This game has a full field of view and gorgeous visuals and your mind may get tricked slightly into feeling the motion at times, but it isn't on hydraulics or anything, because that would significantly increase the manufacturing costs I'm sure. IF it had been put on a hydraulic platform to give you a true sense of motion, it would be 1,000 times better. As it is, it's quite fun, but not as impressive as I expected it to be.

As you would expect, all of the missions are an "on-rails" flight path that you can only slightly alter with brakes, speed boosts, or slight variations of direction. Mostly your objective is to target the enemies that continue to fly into your forward firing arc and blast them out of the sky.

The arcade where we found it had it set to $2 per play and $1 per continue. Unfortunately, there was usually a line of people waiting, so it would be kind of a jerk move to continue on to another mission. I had too much fun while playing to accurately figure out how long each mission lasts, but I would guess it was around 3 to 5 minutes per mission.
