Summary: Different but really good!!
Review: The weapons are cooler the missions are longer(and harder). This is not your tpyical first person shooter of "Blow stuff up". Stratagy plays a large part and most of the missions are quite challenging. The enemy is smarter and more ruthless and smarter then in the previous games. Although they sometimes still manage to do dumb stuff that baffles the mind. There was one incident where I only had 20 helth left and the 6 guys behind this one door came at me 1 at a time. Now only a computer would ever think that was clever. You ca preety much have a lot of fun with this game The force powers are wonderful and the movements precise (this was not the case in DF 2) you have force speed, force jump, force heal Force Lightning and epic lightsaber Duels(in fact this is pretty mucha ll you do in the multiplayer modes because if you go after 16 other guys armed with lightsabers with a blaster rifle you will die.) I mean you just wouldn't die the other players will mop the floor with you.My impression - I liked this game a whole lot but it seemed to me that that the game was really scripted at some points too focused on a linear completion of the mission.The most striking example of this is the first mission where (with the learning curve) I wandered around for almost 2 hours looking for the stupid code keys. Then having found the code keys a door was opened. Even though the mission technicallly ended at that point you were still only halfway through.Conclusion-Don't let peety compliants such as this keep you from buying the game it was stil very fun

Summary: The Best Star Wars Game Ever Made
Review: I have played different Star Wars games, but this Jedy Knight II is the best! The 3D graphic is amazing, the sound effect is awesome, and the each leve is very challenging. You can change the level difficulty from beginner level to Jedy leve. One of the nicest feature of this game is, each level has a puzzle that you need to solve and it makes the game more interesting and it provides hours of entertainment. Once you start playing this game, it is going to hard to stop until you beat the game! They really spent a lot of time developing this game and I highly recommend this game to Star Wars fans.

Summary: Great for some parts Frustrating for others
Review: This game is great. It has a great storyline and cunning characters. And while playing the game you feel like you're sitting back and watching a whole new starwars movie. But this game is not just action. There are buttons and control panels you have to push left and right. Manytimes I found myself going in circles, trying to find out what to do or how to do something. If you don't have some walkthrough to refer to while playing the game at some points you would think there are no possible ways to go on through the level. However, there are very good weapons, and the lightsaber and your force powers are easy and fun to use. Use lightning, throw your lightsaber at people. And once you have a lightsaber then incoming shots are automatically rebounded off your lightsaber without the click of a button. And on any level of difficulty it takes a very long time to beat the game.

Summary: Super Duper SW Game.
Review: If you liked the original / SW / Half-Life, you'll love this game. So basically that accounts for 98% of the people reading this. As for the other 2%, let me convince you:
You get to use a lightsaber.
Luke and Lando are both big parts of the game.
One of the best 1st/3rd person shooter/action/exploring games I've ever played.
Go buy now.

Summary: Excellent
Review: Excellent game, the graphics are a little old, but the important part is the history within the game, and it's a good history, you have guns, laser sabre, force powers, and you can choose at one instance between the dark side and the light side, what else do you want? man it's a must have.

Summary: Great game, but a could be better
Review: Good:
Lightsaber is awesome. No need to use any other weapon.
Force powers are done *very* well.
Graphics are very good.
Gameplay/story isn't too bad.
Good (mostly) level design with very large levels. Bad:
Boring until you get your lightsaber! And thats not 'til the third level! ....
Game is short! only like 12-15 hours of gameplay. That's short to me.
Puzzles and gameplay, while difficult at times, were overall not very challenging or original. "press this button, open that door to get to a hidden lever, repeat..." And I'd like to hear the reasoning behind the layout of some of the puzzles/levels. "Oh, the Empire *needed* a system of platforms that go to different heights depending on which hidden lever you push!" (I've always hated when the puzzles don't jibe with any sense of reality of how an environment would realistically be designed. .....

Summary: the BEST game for the PC
Review: Dark Forces was that game with all choppy graphics and had no lightsaber. Then came Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight. The same horrible graphics as Dark Forces. Actually, not much different except new weapons. Then came Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. When my cousin bought it, I went to play it. It was the best game I've ever played on the PC. The choppy graphics had been totally upgraded so you can see clearly as if it was real life. So I went home and downloaded the demo, available from LucasArt's official site. I played it almost every day all through spring and summer and now it's December 2002 and I'm still playing it! Plus, Dark Forces and Jedi Knight had NO CHEAT CODES!! Now, Jedi Outcast has some of the best cheats in the world. I know almost every one. There's even one to change the color of your lightsaber! It's totally a must-have. Remember--avoid the two old ones.

Summary: Better than the prequels themselves
Review: Whats this? LucasArts releasing an excellent Star Wars game? Why yes it is! A great action-adventure game! Jedi Outcast takes place about 10ish years after Return of the Jedi. Kyle is a ex-jedi, a mercinary who travels the universe trying to make a living doing jobs for the New Republic. One day, he is sent, along with his partner Jan Ors to a moon where it is believed that leftover imperials are hiding out. There he will discover a secret that will change his life forever. Jedi Outcast begins as a 1rst person shooter, with Kyle (your charachter, duh) running around imperial bases for the first 5 levels shooting countless imperial stormtroopers with his trusty blaster rifle. This is the games only bad point. For the first 5 levels you have no lightsaber, only a few weapons and no force powers. Unlike most video games, the first few levels of Jedi Outcast do a fairly poor job of sucking you into the game. There are almost no really exciting moments for the first 5 levels (With the exception of your first encounter with the games super cool bad guy at the end of level 5). Just non stop shooting and a few really difficult puzzles. After you get your lightsaber however, things really start to take off and they dont stop. The gameplay in Jedi outcast is virtually perfect, jumping is easily accomplished, shooting with weapons is easy to do, and most important, the lightsaber controls are flawless. Its easy to pick up how to do complex moves with a bare minimum of practice. The highlight of Jedi outcast is of course the lightsaber combat. After getting all the fighting styles (Fast, medium, strong) and mastering them, you will be a virtually unstopable fighting machine, redifining the term "Jedi Master" with little effort and some skill, you can hack off arms, hands, heads, torsos, legs and feet. If lightsaber combat isint your thing, you can always use the amazingly sweet force powers. Hate a certian stormtrooper? Activate force speed and zoom behind him, pick him up in force grip and toss him off a catwalk to his death. All within a few seconds. Later in the game, you get to fight alongside allies, such as, believe it or not, Lando Calrissian (cool, Billy De Williams nailed the voice acting) and even Luke skywalker! (Sadly this part is only for about a minute). You will need all the help you can get, taking on literally thousands of stormtroopers (One thing about the stormtroopers, for the first time ever, you actually feel sorry for them when you carve them up or toss them off a ledge to thier deaths), Rodians, weequays, frustratingly annoying Grans, Dark Jedi soldiers, and the games super cool main villian,(who sounds like James Earl Jones in a way). Another cool feature of Jedi Outcast is the voice acting. Along with the excellent sound effects, you might find yourself sneaking through an air vent and hear a stormtrooper talking about how hard it is to see out of this (Bad word) helmet. Or another time, you might hear one telling a friend that he took on 2 jedi at once and how easy they are to beat, seconds before you come in and tear them to shreds. Replay value for Jedi Outcast is literally off the charts. Since thier is very little scripting among the bad guys, they fight differently every time, making it super fun to go through a level dozens of times. Although I dont have internet connection, multiplayer is a really fun time, even with the Bots. One of my favorite parts of the game is the cheats. You get your standard god mode, all weapons, all force powers, etc. But a new addition is the ability to spawn NPCs(NonPlayerCharachters) into the game. Want to see if you can take on 50 stormtroopers, 20 reborns, or 10 of the main villian? Its possible. Want to spawn 10 landos and 30 lukes to help you through a level? How about spawning an army of jedi and watch them hack through enimies as they follow you through a level? Overall, Jedi outcast is a very well done game. It starts off slow at first, but it almost never lets down. The good:
Superb graphics and gameplay
fun cheat codes (Especially the NPC spawn)
Excelent level design (for the most part)
good story
wickidly cool main bad guy
Extremly cool lightsaber combat
More fun than a barrel of Womp Rats The bad:
You actually feel sorry for the stormtroopers as you slice them to pices
some frustrating puzzles
the game is boring untill you get your lightsaber The bad: The grans
the stuck point on level 2 (hint, shoot something explosive through something) Summary: It starts off slow, but once it starts, it dosent let up. A absoloute must buy

Summary: A really great game
Review: I've played all of the Dark forces series. 1-3. I know main character Kyle Katarn's life story. And this game not only put yet another twist on that story but greatly improves gameplay. Anyone who liked JK 1 will love this game. In the old one the lightsaber was less practical, and the force powers could get annoying. In this game there are more evil jedi, better use of the force, and many different lightsaber techniqes make it a more lovable weapon. Single player missions are very fun (Its great to watch the storm troopers run in fear for their lives). The force powres are also more user friendly, so to speak, and force jump is automatic now, so it's less annoying. Force speed is easier to control, becuase instead of making you go to fast to control everyone slows down. However single player doesn't have too much relay value to it. Multiplayer is a blast. You and your fellow jedi can team up for a common cause or try to prove who is the most powerful with the force. This game is a must for JK and starwars fans.
