Review: Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

I'm sorry Square-Enix.

I really am.

I'm sorry, but it's a fact of life that every so often a game comes out that's so good, so fresh, and so flawless that it exposes the massive shortcomings of its entire genre. As hard as it is, that time is now, and that game is Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

So, if you can manage to mop up your tears, please proceed and see how even someone who hates Star Wars can be sold on the stale world of console Role Playing Games.

George Lucas wishes he could do something this good...

Geore Lucas doesn't write games :p

but ever since George Lucas savagely violated the franchise

Seriously, if I have to read another KOTOR review that takes potshots at the new trilogies I'm going to smash something.

There's a difference between a cliche and an intelligent observation. ;)

It's funny when people believe their own hype :doubt:

heh. is that so? care to elaborate? :)

AstroBlue, wahoo! Anyways, nice review, barring the raging narcissism. It's better than most of the ones on GameFAQs, yet it's still a bit lean on informing the reader about anything though.
