This is an incredible game that lets you see something of what comes after star wars. The blasters are cool but it looks awful when you put out the pistol in 3rd person veiw. When you get the light saber the plot finally gets good now the levels get slightly easier. The light saber fighting is incredible you can severe hand and arms and it has 3 differint styles. The game also has a great multiplayer that lets you play as any of the charectors of the game. Overall this game deserves all of my five stars.
Great based on demo from RTCW GOTY

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.

...Raven Software is the company making this great game, with old multiplayer levels, returning force powers and Kyle Katarn!! Personally I think Mysteries of the sith was not that good, but Raven won't screw up with this one, and did you notice the graphics from Dark Forces II? Now it'll have sweeter graphics using the Quake III engine. (See PCGamer mag.)I am willing to pay even $50$ for this game!! Just buy it. Reserve the copy because it'll probably be out in Electronics stores. shelves

The team at Rave/Lucasarts announced the week before last that the game had gone gold, simultaneously releasing a new trailer to show off their baby. While one would expect developers to try and hide their weak points in such an exhibition, there was no sign in the trailers (there was a teaser released a few weeks back) that JK2 will be anything but the best SW game since, well, JK.
The main reason these games (the Dark Forces series) are so good is not the fact that they are Star-Wars tie-ins. It's not that they have incredible level design and inventive puzzles. It's not even the giddiness of running amok as a Demigod of Death that all good fps games inspire. The reason Kyle Katarn rocks is the same thing that made He-Man really unique (besides for the fur briefs). It's that he's a gun-toting mage. Very few works of fiction can manage to mix magic and technology like Star Wars did with the Force. In no other game I've seen can you use your magics to steal an opponent's weapon and then nail the confused mother with your BFG. The techno-mysticism and complex strategies that come with a force-powered fps are what makes a 1997 game like the first JK(it didn't even have bots) popular on the zone still in 2002. Here's to another 5 years of lightsaber aenemas!
the most awesome game ever

You do not need to be a die hard Star Wars fan to love this game. I spend hours at a time playing this game. This game is a first person shooter along with a lightsaber wielding head cuttin off action pact game. You start with only a gun and stun baton but you pick up other weapons along the way. When you get your lightsaber, the fun factor multiplies by a million. I can't get enought of taking hacked at helpless storm troopers, then when they fall to the groung dead, you can still chop them up. The comments that the enemy AI make are sometimes very funny. The enemy AI are very smart and will try to surround you (expecially when you get your lightsaber). When you have you lightsaber you can deflect blaster shots. The coolest part of the game are the force powers. Your character developes his force powers as you advance throught the game. I love using force choke on people because it lifts them off the ground and then I can through them off a cliff and here them screeming all the way down until their voice gradually dissapears. You can even use the lighting power that Emperor Palpatine uses in Return of the Jedi. This is the coolest game ever made. A must buy for even somewhat Star Wars fans.

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.
Breath of fresh air.

A must have game for any fan of not only star wars, but of first person shooters. This game has it all. Good graphics, great sound, a good story, and some of the best saber to saber fighting I have ever seen. I highly enjoyed this game and have recommended it to all of my friends. I rank it within my top 10 FPS games.
