I love this game. This game really is awesome. I play it a least 4-5 times a week. If you have a gamming PC like I have, You won't regret owning this game. And if you have one of the latest video cards, Like ATI 9700 or 9800, It will look awesome.
An awsome action packed game!

I have to say I have played alought of Star Wars games in my life, but this one out weighs all of them by alought. In this game you take the great Kyle Kartarn on his epic adventure threw a number of really cool levels. Back in the good old days of Dark Forces in 1995, the graphics to computer games (to todays standards) were not very good. On the other hand, this game has awsome, breath taking graphics and landscapes. When you first play this game you will know pretty quickly if you like it or not. Some people find it frustrating that it is to hard to find everything and all that other blaber. Well my suggestion to you is simpally purchase the stratagey guide and make your way through it. Or you could also use the cheat codes and make it a little easier. Personally I think the best thing about this game is that it alows you to grip the force and use diffrent force powers all the way from throwing you lightsaber to force push to force pull to force lightning etc. I have to say this game has it all! If you have been looking for a great Star Wars first person shooter, this is the game for you. May the force be with you...always.
Defenitly buy this game

this game is the best thing since Dark Forces. The light saber battles are great. You can do all kinds of things with your light sabers. Some people say that its frustrating. Thats stupid. They put stuff in areas where you wouldn't think of to make it hard. Its a very well writen game with lots of weapons and tools to play with. My favorite is the lightsaber.
This game is the best. And to all my people who have played all the Dark Forces series I think that they will think that this is the best one since. In graphics, guns, force powers, and levels.
A super game

This game is one of the greast Star Wars games around. Though the A.I. is not as good as in games like Ghost Recon and Rouge Spear, it is a lot of fun and excitment.

I wish you could use a joystick w/ this game, but you really shouldnt bother.
It's the best piece of work from LucasArts I have ever seen, and I've seen a few. The only clumsy part is the various keyboard commands necessary to quickly move your character through his world, while waxing the bad guys.
Very cool game, if you like Star Wars, and first persons this games IS IT !!!
The Force will be with you.

I have been playing JKII: Jedi Outcast non-stop since I picked it up, and I cannot say enough out it! Once you start the game, you are totally immersed into the Star Wars universe with the sites, sounds, characters, and music. The sound track to this chapter is totally awesome! From the hopeful, joyous music of the Rebellion to the dark, damp sounds of the Empire: you will live in the Star Wars world. And once you obtain your Force powers, you will start to believe that you are a true Jedi and can take on the forces of Evil yourself.
I did a lot of research on this game before shelling out the $50 for it and it was well worth it! Even if you are not a fan of the Star Wars saga, the story, graphics, and layout of this game are outstanding. So, if you are considering this game, consider no more. You will love it!!

Ever since the original Star Wars hit the cinema in 1977 I've wanted to duel with lightsabers. While that fantasy will have to wait until they are invented, here is a nice substitute.
As a first person shooter, it's excellent. But about 1/3rd of the way into it, you get a lightsaber, and this is what sets the game apart. I found that after you get the lightsaber there is no need for a gun(Truly a noble weapon for a more civilized age). You can slice through stormtroopers while blocking their fire, or simply stand there and let their shots be bounced off your saber and back at them! Using the saber in duels with other Jedi will take practice, but soon you'll be a Jedi master incorporating the powers of the force into every situation(you'll find that rearangement of the force buttons is a must, since you can't stop in the middle of a duel to reach for the F keys). Even when rockets are fired at you, just use force push to send them back their origin.
And the use of force powers is simply amazing, too many stormtroopers? Well just get within visual range of one of them, use the old Jedi mind trick and he'll fire on his fellow troops. And you haven't lived until you disarm a stormtrooper before crushing his throat with the force. :)
This is truly the best Star Wars game to date, and I hope to see the lightsaber tecniques used in many future games.
This game rules! it kicks!

This game lets you do everything in the movies! Pull guns out of people's hands, dismember bodies, shock them with force lighting. This game has everything that a Star Wars fan should be looking for in a game. The multiplayer is nothing special, except for all the force powers and lightsaber, but the single player is superb, with lots of inovative levels.
