One Of the Best Games I Ever Played |
| Bill Denny from Baldwinsville, USA says (13/Aug/2003): |
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is one of my absolute favorites! With different responses that decide if you are going to be on the light or dark side, the games really rocks. It does however have a few flaws, I think the game should be a lot longer, I mean, I beat it in 35 hours of gameplay, it should be around 60 hours. And flaw number two, I would like to be part of the fighting, not just commanding my character to do stuff. The good side of that is I can hit pause and tell all my party members to do something, than hit un-pause and watch them do it! It would be even better if you didn't have to be human, it would be cool being a twil'ek jedi! And more bad guys like the rancor and kraite dragon they were realy cool to! Over all, it is a extremely good games, and I hope there will be another star wars game a lot like it without the flaws. I congradulate the makers of this game for making such an awesome game!!!!!!!

Excellent Game for all Who love RPG's |
| SWfan350SBC from Rockford, IL USA says (13/Aug/2003): |
This game is very additive as others have said. Take advantage of your X-box's hard drive and save multiple players at mulitple times so you can come back and do things differently. The game has a steep learning curve at first but then it becomes very envolved and keeps you wondering what if I would have done this... Both sides are fun and the transit mode is a life saver from all the running USE IT it cuts time. The Mini games are fun and so is the whole game. A must have for all game fans. I paid 49.95 at Target for my copy so its not a bad price. I love the stategy involved and the fact that you can self heal when you become a Jedi. Another plus is the pause before a fight. What else can I say but A+

Sooooo close............Soooo very close |
| A gamer from denver,usa says (16/Aug/2003): |
The game was awesome. I absolutely hate the idea of fighting in turns, however. Bioware did a good job though of making the attacks quicker, but it would be better in real time. Overall, it was finally a good star wars game. Only suggestions are real-time fighting and perhaps making it a 2 player rpg. Example: Halo is a 2 player rpg and its the highest selling game. Hopefully there will be a sequel with more than 1 player.

Game of the Year, even for non RPG fans |
| Matt G. from Long Valley, New Jersey says (17/Aug/2003): |
Most of the Star Wars games in the past were really not great games, but this one is amazing! I hate RPG's and I always have but this game is so good, it's the best game this year and the best RPG ever. In the game, you go to 7 different planets, fly on this awesome ship, learn to be a jedi, and choose between being on the dark side or the light side. The best part of it is, you get to pick your color lightsaber and they even have double bladed lightsabers! How sweet is that? I adise everyone to buy this game, it is the second best game I have ever played next to Halo.

cool game |
| chris from USA NY frewsburg 14738 says (18/Aug/2003): |
this game is really hard ( for me ) i just got the game 4 days ago and i am pretty far i like how u can choose each side. I chose the game for malak on the screen and the double light sabers, graghics and just STAR WARS. i bought the game at wal mart for $ 52.00 bucks. its allot but it is worth it. this game is one of my favorites. I have soround sound so the games music is loud and great. I gave it ********** stars for thew graphics people dark side , light side new pepole and can create ur own person, and more light saber action, and last of all ,game play. This star wars game ouyt matches them all bye alot the moves on the game or real and don't freeze like an other system. this game is in the lead until a better star wars game comes out. Remember i rated it ********** stars for the best game play bye

best game I ever played 100 stars |
| A gamer from nevada,USA says (18/Aug/2003): |
This game has everything from double bladed lightsabers to the final battle with Malak this game roks BE ON THE DARK SIDE or the game sucks. The swoop racing is ok but if want credits than do swoop racing. do not be females they suck they can't even beat a dark jedi

Star Wars meets D&D, An unbeatable tagteam! |
| Hazard Decourt from Robertsdale, AL, USA says (20/Aug/2003): |
The game is very engaging. If you like Baldurs Gate I and II, or even Icewind Dale I and II, you will LOVE Star Wars: KOTOR! The character creation system is fantastic, you may be limited to certain faces, but nobodies perfect. You get to see a new history of Star Wars 4000 years before the Star Wars that we know and love today. You have download content for all you Xbox LIVE users to get your hands on for updates (read instructions for more info). You even have ambidexterity (aka two weapon fighting) which is starting to develop in most of the Bioware games today. If you ever wanted to take your rping to a futuristic atmosphere, plus relive a past time in a 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons style of playing, then this is the game for you. The chapters are not as long as planned and the max level is 20, but this is a success for Bioware! You have a swell freedom of which side you want to be on and you have workbenches to tone certain equipment up with addons at. If you hate Star Wars, you may still like the game if you are interested in Dungeons and Dragons. It has a reinforced stat system so you can't make those cheap characters with the 1 charisma and 20 strength along with 20 dexterity, and 20 constitution and hardly any wisdom or intelligence (Cheap method in D&D sessions for survival). The classes are passable too, plus they have tests to attain the Jedi status. 10 *s all the way!!!

It's a great game, of course! |
| Jean-Luc Poissonnet from Quebec, Canada says (21/Aug/2003): |
I am a fan of RPG games, as Baldur's Gate, Fallout or Morrowind... And Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic is now one of my favorite title. I wont write a long review, but in summary, this game has not many bugs, I played about 100 hours, and the games froze about 1 or 2 times. If you liked star wars films, you will probably like the story of the game. During your adventure you will have some help, as Jedi, wookie and some other non player character (NPC). One thing, I didn't like, it is that compared to Morrowind, or Fallout, you dont have the freedom to do what you want to. If someday, you are angry, and you want to kill a civilian, or want to rob a merchant, you can't. If you want to explore the entire planet, you are very restricted, you can't go on your own explore the entire planet ( like you can do in morrowind). Finally, Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic is a great game, if you like RPG buy it, fun to come.(But i think that Fable will be better anyway, hehe, do what you want, its your money.)

my #1 game of the year for 2003 |
| A gamer from IN,USA says (22/Aug/2003): |
Before I never rally liked games where you had to imput moves instead of doing everything yourslf but now that i have played it it is my new favorite game. The graphics are great, it is very originallity, and you can choose to be light or dark good or evil. How can you beat that? once i got the gome (3 days after it came out)i was hooked and beat it in another 3 days on dark and now i am working on light. the game if fairly short when compared to a few others but as far as gameplay goes it has blown every single prvious star wars game into ity bity microscopic pieces. I can't count how many hours i've spent playing this gome since I got it, but the only time I stop is to get food, go to the bathroom, or to go to school. that is why Star Wars Knights of the old republic is my favorite game for the year 2003.

hmmm this is a no brainer by kotor!!! |
| A gamer from stratford connecticut united states says (25/Aug/2003): |
I bout kotor almost right when it came out.I have to say im obsessed with the game i cant stop playing it.The storyline is pretty good.the only thing i dont like about it is you are limited bto wear you can trave.I have collected i tihnk 4 starmaps and now im stuck at the part where i fight the apprentice on korriban wich is pissing me off.But the game is so addicting it drags me in.The game fighting system is awesome you get to plan ahead like attack critacil attack then umm i dont know anything you want to add, its mostly about strategy.today when i played i found myself punching a wall because i couldnt beat the apprentice...I love kotor more than anyother star wars game.Evev though there is no cool starship fighting it stilled kicked a**.People might tll me whatabout the ebon hawk?Well its not that cool like in the other games...Chose your own path, pazaak, swoop racing it never ends.I prefer the dark side..ten out of Ten no brainer.

This is Awesome! |
| Gaiden from FWB, FL USA says (27/Aug/2003): |
I think this game is so cool! I have been addicted to it since i bought it. I beat the game as a sith lord, and being creul and mean was pretty fun. Especially when you get to the mysterious planet. That chara was a male and now i am starting over a a female light side person. I dont know how it will turn out because the female game is different than the male game.

My Review of Star Wars KOTOR |
| Toxiorb from USA says (29/Aug/2003): |
I beat Star War KOTOR in about three days. The best part about the game is all the chouces you get. like being on the dark or light side. you get to choose your speech. Plus there are a whole bunch of twists in the story.The first time i beat it i chose dark side. but this is a game you should really play more the once. so i started a new file and i'm going on the light side. another part i liked is how you have nine friends which you can choose two out of. the graphics on the game were pretty good, but i've seen better. how long the game is, depends on what choices you make in the game.
|
Very well thought out. |
| DaBomb says (30/Aug/2003): |
If your interested in just playing games with no story where you beat someone up, play mortal kombat. Without the picking your attacks system the game would be total havic! I admit, the game is a little incomplete, a few freezings but nothing major, it didnt ruin my day when I had to restart the game every once in awhile. Payed $45 for a used one. Its not hard so far at all and im very cloes to beating it, havent gotten stuck once yet, its not hard but yet its not easy as in boring, its always surprising me! As for graphics, what the heck have you all been playing?! These graphics are crisp and nice. I didnt even notice the songs. VERY ADDICTIVE

Great game but ending is bad |
| jerry from USA says (5/Sep/2003): |
The game was great. I must have spent days playing this game. Loved it. But the problem is that when you beat it all you get is a stupid cinema. I wanted to play as darth revan. Whats up with that. Also the game would lock up a few times. So to Bioware for next star wars game make it like this one just make it like never end have like 50 thousand worlds, yeah that woudl kick, and stop making it lock up. BUt if you havent played this game yet and are thinking about it believe me get it. it is most defiently the best game ever made for the xbox.

What Else? 10!!! |
| A gamer from New Orlenas, Louisiana, USA says (13/Sep/2003): |
This game is the best star wars game i have ever played in my life. the fighting took some getting used to, but even though you cant control arm movements i love it. the strategy in this game is excellent. my most favorite part is that you have to choose the right wording and stuff to get through the game. if you consider, MAKE A SECOND!!!
|
excellent game, but where's the excitement? |
| DaHype from Amsterdam, Holland says (1/Oct/2003): |
The game rules, no doubt about it...HOWEVER:
Yes I know it's an RPG, yes I know most RPG's use a turnbased fighting system... Don't get me wrong, a turnbased fighting system is okay.....in a game such as Final Fantasy where you have your magic spells, summon demons etc.. However it's NOT okay in a game that's set in the star wars universe. where you are a bad ass jediknight wielding lightsabers.
Lightsabers as we all know and love them are very intense flashy weapons. It would have been an amazing rush if you were in realtime control of the fighting but this system (eventhough it's well implemented) doesn't provide that rush of adrenaline when you're in combat. NO frantic wielding of your saber, NO lastsecond blocks followed by a well aimed swing to take your opponent down, leaving you with that heartpounding feeling of "wow that was intense!!" There's just no real excitement in them!!
Instead, fights feel like you're in the backseat of a Ferrari...giving orders to the driver to turn right...turn left..brake...hit the gas etc etc.., I don't wanna be in the backseat of a Ferrari! I wanna DRIVE the bloody thing myself, I wanna be in DIRECT control!!
Does this mean that the game sucks? Well..no, make no mistake, the game is good, very good, good story, lots of freedom in how you want to play the game. That right there is what makes it good, the fact that you really have a sense of freedom to go and act how you like. But as for the fighting....should have, would have, could have..

the game is tha shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only score it should get is 10 |
| jeff from russia england chicken beans says (9/Oct/2003): |
this game is off tha hook no other game i played can top this one. im not usually a star wars fan but when i seen star wars atack of the clones i said to my mom we just got an x box now we need a star wars game. we rented it for two weeks on rental and i beat it on light and now its darks turn. hint : (get death wave for the force so when you and darth malak have the final show down you can zap the life out of the dead jedi)
|
HOT STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| KENNEY from AZ, USA says (17/Feb/2004): |
This is the best game that I have ever played. It has the best plot ever. I used to think star wars was stupid but after playing the game, I love it.I agree with Dan, it needs some type of transportation. Other than that it rocks.On the star forge I think they went a little overboard with the attacking jedi but that just makes it harder and a lot more fun. I like that you can choose what you say. That makes it alot better. I really like the end battle with malak. I like the fact that you can drain the jedi with life drain or death feild befor him so he cant regain life. It makes the battle alot esaier.
P.S. Ilove the alternate endings!
|
Holy S#%t can you get any better!!! |
| Kyle Sexton from Fair Play, USA says (29/Nov/2004): |
Who can say 10, wait who can say 100 because thats what this deserves. I have only heard one complaint, and that was by an idiot. This game rocks. I mean the story is crazy, the twist are insane, and the characters are hilarious, i mean HK-47 was cool as crap, i kept him around just to hear his comments. You can be evil, You can be good, hey if you try hard anough you can be both, two endings, endless ways to get there. Yeah sometimes you feel kind of bad after you just told a woman that she is worthless, and then force persuasion her to jump off a cliff, but still its funny.
This game rocks, so shall the second one. Long live George Lucas

| sugna from n.s.w australia says (16/Apr/2005): |
