I just bought this game so u might not consider my review the most thought out. but anyway, this is a good game to buy (ecspecially considering the price) but only if your not someone like me who believes graphics are one of the most important part of the game. But besides the rather primitive graphics the game appears to be very well thought out, The game not only allows you to shoot down enemies to achieve your goal, but allows lightsaber duels. but probably the most interesting part about the game is you customize your jedi. You choose what force abilities he has and whether he is a good or evil jedi. This game is worth the ten dollars.

Great Game

This game is an extremly fun game for all Jedi Fans. Using Jedi powers couldn't be funner. Although some of the game is a little boring Jedi battles totally changed my mind about this game. All and all great game.

GREAT STORY LINE+GAMEPLAY!!!

The Graphics [are not so hot], but what do you expect? It's an old game. Quite fun, when it was newer. But, with Jedi Outcast, it's become outdated. JK2 has better Saber gameplay, cooler weapons, better graphics, and so-on, so the only thing this has left is the fact that it plays on far slower machines than JK2. But, now, JK2 simply replaces it.

One of the best Star Wars games. A classic.

Many people are complaining about the graphics of this game, they are comparing them with Jedi:Outcast. This game was release in 1997, when the only good video accelerator was a Voodoo 2 from 3dfx, as opposite to Jedi: Outcast just release this year(2002) with a GeForce4 ti.

Having clarify the graphics issue I must confess that I still play this game. One reason is that it has a feature length story as opposite to Jedi: Outcast. Here Kyle must find a secret and sacred place call "the valley of the Jedi" before the evil Sith Jerec. During his adventure he must battle the empire with his growing Jedi powers that his obtaining each time a level is completed. Here you choose what powers you want as opposite to Jedi:Outcast. After flying from one planet to another, killing several enemies that go from lack aiming realistic troopers to REAL dark jedis not the lack of training fake ones from Jedi:Outast (which were a piece of cake to kill) you will became a Jedi or a Sith lord depending on your action. The story varies if you are a Sith or a Jedi and the ending of the game pretty much depends on this, I personally prefer the Sith ending.

The controls are not so good since you cannot bond the mouse buttons with your personal settings, they are pre-defined e.g. you cannot use the wheel to scroll your weapons, that option is not available for the wheel. I really don't like this because I like to have the same keys (mouse1=attack, mouse2=jump, mouse3=s. attack, mouse4=reload, mouse5=drop or use, wheel=scroll weapons) for similar games (Unreal, Quake, CS, HL, etc.).But the overall enjoyment of playing this game is real satisfactory.

I have had it since 1997 and the only reason I play Jedi:Outcast is because the multiplayer is real fun, and yes the graphics rock, but remember can you really compare The Empire Strikes Back special effects with Attack of the Clones special effects, is Attack of the Clones better than The Empire Strikes Back only because it looks and it sounds better, I think not. Just like The Empire Strikes Back is my favorite Star Wars movie, Jedi Knights - Dark Forces 2 is my favorite star wars game and maybe even my favorite FPS(first person shooter, not frames per second), were else can you slide people up with a lightsaber. Other than the limitation of the mouse bonding and the old graphics, I think that you will enjoy this game.

Just for the record, ANH and AOTC both are second just after ESB. But if I must choose a second and a third I'll go for ANH then AOTC. Also is not that I don't like Jedi:Outcast is just that I expected more from it. And yes I consider my self a Sith because the first time I played this game is were I ended up.
