Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast (Mac)

Summary: A True Classic Star Wars Game
Review: This game is truly great, an American classic (once you do a lot of downloads, that is). It is based on the time just after the fall of the Empire. You fight as Kyle Katern, a student of Luke Skywalker who is trying to find his destiny. The more people you kill, the further your path leads to a new generation of Sith, while the quicker each job gets done, the closer you are to becoming a Jedi Master. Altogether, this game gets a ***** rating from me.

Summary: A Very Hard Game
Review: At first I thought this game would be fun, but the first level was very hard. It took two weeks to the first level not to mention the puzzles and hidden switches in every single level. The cutscene looks terrible. There are somethings I like about this game like the lightsaber, weapons and the storyline. The multiplayer is even more terrible if you have a 56K modem. I'm a star wars fans but I have to say this game could have been better. If you have to choose from Jedi starfighter or Jedi outcast, I recommend Jedi Starfighter.

Summary: Buy this now.
Review: Best game I've played all year. This game beats MOHAA, RTCW, SoF2, etc. When you start choking people with the force, and then cutting their arm off with a light saber, you'll understand.

Summary: slow in the beginning
Review: i bought this game 2 weeks ago and it is AMAZING! i havnt beat the gameyet(i had to start over cuz my computer cought a virus:(
well in the beginning land on a base and u find out the have these crystals that u make lightsabers from and so then u go to the place where they mine from and u find out they use slaves to mine so u set slaves free. after u set slaves free this jedi named dessan comes and u have to fight him(u lose cuz u only haveguns and u cant use force yet) then dessan kills ur friend jan. after that u go to the valley of the jedi to get back ur force powers. then u meet luke and u have to complete puzzles to prove that u can use the lightsaber again. i dont know the rest cuz this is right when my comp got a virus. o ya and multiplayer is really fun, u can play capture the flag,FFA, team FFA, and duels which r all fun.

Summary: Great based on demo from RTCW GOTY
Review: I played the demo for this on my RTCW GOTY edition bundle. It is great you have force heal so health packs are absolete. The lightsaber is the best weapon it is a effective and dangerous meelee weapon as well as a throwing weapon. The demo was fun I hope to get the full game soon.

Summary: very sweet
Review: I just want to say Lucas' Arts,Activision, and Raven did a awesome job on this game. The graphics are sharp, the sound is great,and the plot is good. I especially enjoyed the saber combos and the imperials' conversations. I also enjoyed the Dark Forces and Jedi Knight: DF2. They were games almost ahead of their time.
Jedi Outcast places you in the role of former Jedi Knight Kyle Katarn, who is now a mercinary for the republic. Along with his partner Jan Ors, they are virtually unstoppable. When Kyle and Jan are assigned to check out a small "abandoned" imperial outpost, they find out that the remnant are trying to regain their empire. After they return from the supposed "blue milk run" they are assigned to check out the small mining world of Arctus Prime. As Kyle evaluates the situation, Jan calls in the New Republic Troops. Once the mining operation has been crippled, Kyle makes his way to his ship. He finds out Jan has been kidnapped by a dark Jedi named Desann and his partner, another Dark Jedi named Tavion. He tries to fight Desann, but fails. As Desann tells him he's "not worth the effort it would take" Desann decides to kill Jan instead. Having lost the one thing he cared for more than himself, Kyle decides to reclaim his title as a Jedi Knight and get back his lightsaber.
With an arsonal of over 6 weapons, including the lightsaber, you can fight your way through the amazing levels that really give the game a Star Wars touch. With your weapons at your disposal, you can fight some classic enemies (stormtroopers, imperial officers, probe droids, etc.) and some new enemies (reborn, shadowtroopers just to name a few). If you are just the run-of-the-mill Star Wars fan, or you like 1st person shooters this game is for you.

Summary: JEDI KNIGHT 2 RULES (and it is comin to mac!!!!!)
Review: jedi knight 2 jedi outcast is REALLY COOL!!!! The graphics are exelant and the force powers are rad!! The forces are force speed,force push, pull,mind trick,heal(this is really handy),strangle(my fav u can pick someone up and use them 4 a shield or strangle them to death or if you wanna have alot of fun drop them over an edge!!!), force jump, and last but not least force lightning( it can hit multiple targets) This could be good or bad but the levels are long and complex with alot of dubbling back to go get someone or flip a switch. there are also online games and just multi player with computer generated charecters. The down side to this game is u dont get force or light saber until about the 5th level but that can be fixed by a cheat look it up on cheatcc.com. oh ya u can also level up your force powers and mix it up with the bad jedi dudes!! my point is the game is really SWEET!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: best star wars title to date
Review: This fps is very immersive compared to many of the shooters out on the market right now. The storyline was very involving and kept things interestin. The best aspect about the battles were the saber battles. Being able to control how you swing made things 10 times better than the battles in jedi knight dark forces. I found the puzzles frustrating at times but if your patient it's not too bad. I feel the puzzles helped slow down the pace and break the came up a little compared to the regular run and gun products out there. The graphics were very good probably ranked 3rd to wolfenstein and max payne. The star wars universe was well created in much detail. The sound and music was great, identical to the movies. I've had no problems running the program. I have a celeron 466, 192 ram, gforce 2 mx and I can run the game at full with about 40% stuttering in heated battle. Turning 2 options down to medium made the game very smooth in all areas. Anyways it's a great game and it's gotten all high scores on all the review sites.
