Rating: Summary: Best game ever. No Doubt. Review: For all of you who have 2 lives( One as a Jedi and the other as a nerd) and those of you who are just "normal" non force wielding human beings, This game is the greatest ever. This game has it all. Excellent single player campaign with the BEST storyline ever. Excellent FREE no-obligations Multiplayer through the game directly, no 3rd party software needed. Beautiful, crisp, and awesome graphics. Awesome guns and force powers, and yes the light saber combat is beautiful as well, down to the sound. Excellent replay value included. If you're a flaming huge Star Wars nerd such as myself, this game is the reason you exist. If you're a hardcore gamer looking for a new title, they don't get much better than this. I recommend this to anyone and everyone with two eyes and a brain. Well you could have one eye and enjoy it just as much I'm sure.. but.. well.. yeah.. it's great.. HAVE FUN!!
Rating: Summary: star wars jedi knight dark forces 2 review Review: At first glance, this game is not that great. The graphics leave a lot to be desired, even for a 1997 game, and the cutscenes are dissappointing. But once you get into the gameplay, it's an amazing game. The characters in the levels are not only challenging but the levels themselves are. Each encompasses many secret passage ways, trap doors, and hiden shortcuts. Not only must you defeat your enemies, you must beat the terrain and map, trying to find your way out. While playing this game, I found myself slashing open grates to get where I was going, crawling through ceiling vents, getting blown through tunnels by giant fans, walking through pipes ankle deep in fuel that could explode at any moment, and much more. Another great aspect of this game is the AI. These enemies carry powerful weapons like crossbows, concussion rifles, fast firing repeaters, rail guns that fire explosives that latch on to you until them explode, and of course light sabers. During the levels it was challenging but the game suprises you at the end with a climatic lightsaber fight with another jedi that is very difficult to beat. As if the single player game is not enough, try going online and challenging your friends to a lightsaber fight. Watch them cringe as you throw boxes at them using your force throw. If Jedi Knight 2 Jedi Outcast had not come out, this game would be the foremost jedi game on the market.
Rating: Summary: graphics rock, but story jumps Review: now, this is a good game as far as gameplay, but you start out not knowing anything and have to improvize. most charachters have no distinguishable intro. you really have to improvize through the first 3 levels, but the the game heats up. you start dueling with lightsabers, and stormtroopers get into it. when you beat the game as a light jedi, it has an ending which leaves much to be desired. it is impossible to beat as a dark jedi.
Rating: Summary: Awesome Review: This is such an awewsome game. Can't wait for the next similar style game to come out!!!!!
Rating: Summary: An Excellent Game Review: This game is so very good that while I played it, I almost literally had to tear myself away from the computer for school. It was really cool how they had the cutscenes with actors in them. They really help with the bad graphics. Saber Fighting in this game is far easier than in Jedi Outcast, though if you asked me about graphics, Jedi Outcast would definetly win. Storyline, cutscenes, fighting, and... imaginitive charachters, to say the least, make this game so good that you even forget about the bad graphics. Most of the Time
Rating: Summary: Just.... Omg... Review: This game has UNBELIEVABLE graphics. The duel light saber mode is NICE. I got so sick of noobs coming in and killing my enemies and this prevents it! The multiplayer OWNS with ctf, team ffa, ffa, duel, and jedimaster. Team ffa is my favorite... usually have one person grip while i lunge and kill the guy... ANYWAYS this game gets a 112983018923/112983018923 for me, and its very addicting in a good way... every day you're hooked! I played it once for 8 hours straight on a saturday... WITHOUT getting up... its just so much fun... but of course i have no life! I felt like i was atrophic and my legs were gonna fall off.... just needed a little break. BUT this game is the best star wars multi out there so far.
Rating: Summary: Disappointment.... Review: Huh, probably most reviewers won't agree with me on this one, but I found this game extremely boring. I'm a Star Wars fan, so I can appreciate everything w/ a good story, decent visual, etc. I know this game is fairly old, but I still play old games (even ones from the early '90-s), so old graphics really don't disturb me that much. But the storyline should be MUCH better, that DF2's: I never felt any interest in the game, playing it was almost like playing Quake 3 Arena: pointless.Acting is almost horrible in this one - they should've gone with graphical cut scenes inseat of live actors: acting is actually so bad that it hurts. Most of the B movies have better acting than in this game. I'd say avoid this game at all costs, unless you're a really big Lucasarts/Star Wars fan. I got the game for a bargain price but still feel fairly dissapointed.
Rating: Summary: Great game!!! Review: Everyone else is raving about gameplay, which, following in the tradition of Elite Force and Quake 3 is stupendiously awesome, so I'll concentrate on another topic: internet play. After you've beat the single player part of the game, many feel it is over. You saved the galaxy, your girlfriend, and on top of all that, got to fight a "souped up barney the dino carrying a lightsaber (that would be Dessan)" while you were at it. Well, they are WRONG!! The multiplayer feature is very neat, but unless you have a bunch of fellow Star Wars addicts in your house, each with their own computer, you are not going to be getting anywhere fast in the way of person vs. person gaming. This is where the internet gaming comes in. I must say, that the developers did an awesome job! Gameplay is close to authentic, and interaction is very good. I enjoy playing CTF or Team FFA the best, but I've been known to do FFA or DUEL as well ;) Did I mention Force powers? Ohh, the dark side is very tempting, being able to strangle someone with the press of a button is too good to be true... :D :D There is a dedicated server for either Windows or Linux avalible at several download sites that is very nice. I am currently using it to host my own server, and learning along the way. The admin functions are prety extencive, but could use some work. Using an admin mod solves this, though. Emotes are also a kick in the seat. You can bind keys so you can laugh at people, address the puplic with pre-programmed taunts, and generaly antagonise the other players with body language! I have so many keys bound at the moment, that it is hard to find room for an extra function key, ot taunt! I would definately recomend this even if you are a once-in-a-great-while gamer, you will get addicted all too quickly, trust me ..
Rating: Summary: Become a Jedi? Heck yeah! Review: Jedi Knight II is a really fun game. The story is interesting, the characters are good, the graphics are nice enough (how exciting can corridors really get?), and the structure of the game keeps the player involved from start to finish. As a Star Wars fan, I can hardly imagine a more exciting premise for a game than becoming a Jedi, which is exactly what you do in Outcast. I know I'll be waiting in line for JK III to come out next year! As a side note, this is the first "serious" computer game I've played. I'd previously believed myself to be incapable of the kind of eye-hand coordination necessary for this sort of thing, but I learned pretty quickly how to get around in Jedi Knight II and I look forward to applying those skills to other games. Oh--and listen to what the storm troopers say. They're hillarious.
Rating: Summary: Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast Review: Jedi Knight 2: Jedui Outcast ROCKS!... I play it every day after I get home from school! This is a great game for kids about 11 years old and up!...
