Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

The Good
The gameplay and graphics, the music and sound come together to form a near-perfect roleplaying experience. The story was great, exceeding my expectations even. Classic tale of Good vs Evil... or Evil vs Evil, depending on how one plays the game!

The voiceacting was surprisingly good, given some of the cheese acting we've been subjected to over the years (ie. FFX).

Very little in this game did not appeal to me. Christ! I bought an X-Box just to be able to play this game. More than a year since its release, I'm still playing this title and can't wait to play KOTOR II !!!!!

The Bad
It could easily have been about twenty hours longer with a planet or two extra in the game. Also, considering the fact that they probably had access to the sound archives at Skywalker Ranch, Bioware could have tried harder to come up with better sounding alien speak. After a while, "Nee slimo poodoo bodo" starts to get really annoying!!! Why does every non-Basic speaking alien have the same exact speech patterns?!

The Bottom Line
A great, well-rounded RPG with a great story, cool characters, weapon and item customization, fairly decent arcade mini-games, a villain worthy of Darth Vader (almost) with a really neat sounding voice. The music is the best I've heard outside of John Williams' original score. Play it if you haven't. You are missing out!!!

BTW- Will there be a KOTOR IIII? Time will tell...
