Pros: Great gameplay, engaging (if cheesy) storyline.
Cons: Irritating puzzles, dated graphics, odd sound glitches
Summary: Warning: This Is Going To Be A Fairly Long Review I'll admit I was never a fan of the original Dark Forces. Although when it was released it was probably one of the FPSs with somewhat of a plot, and the Star Wars license added a fair amount of l ... read more

Pros: Great replay value; nice gameplay; lightsabers!
Cons: dated graphics; AI little buggy
Summary: Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight is a great game combining the Action and FPS genres. This game has a variety of weapons to choose from ( including the jedi's weapon; but you don't get that until you play a few levels). Jedi Knight is one of the few games ... read more

Pros: Too many to list again. Almost everything about this game is perfect.
Cons: The 3d engine doesn't make good use of d3d accerleration at all. Also has some annoying 3rd person view trais.
Summary: In this world of gaming, it's a rare occasion when we, the gamers, come upon a great piece of coding that can make us forget about all of the "extreme graphics" and "3dmark" trash. How many times have we gone through bargin bins ... read more

Pros: Kicking ass as a Jedi is always cool.
Cons: Lightsaber fighting isn't as fun as it should be.
Summary: Being a Star Wars freak, I picked up a six-pack of games during a recent trip to Calgary. It had such flying classics as TIE Fighter and X-Wing, which I had not played for a few years. So, naturally, I picked up the pack and happily strolled to the ... read more

Pros: Soundtrack, variety of levels, fluid gameplay
Cons: They need to make more of these!
Summary: One of the few games that has earned a place in my permanent game file. Even though I have solved it (and took many weeks to achieve this) it is enjoyable again and again.
Although it requires you to use the CD, it rewards you with music from the ... read more

Pros: Very fun great internet multi play
Cons: hmmmmmm that is a good question
Summary: Jedi Knights is in my opinion one of the best PC games out there. It is based off of Star Wars and you are Kyle Katarn a Jedi Knight trying to, of course, overthrough the evil empire. The graphics are really pretty good and the story line behind it all ... read more

Pros: Force powers, lightsaber

Pros: Lightsaber, Jedi, Sith, force powers, 2 different endings.
Cons: Not enough force powers.
