Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the games-to-lust-after dept.

LukeG writes "Despite the many impressive efforts in recent years of Lucas Arts Entertainment, a 'definitive' Star Wars game has not been forthcoming. Yet in 'Knights of the Old Republic', Bioware may have found the genre and approach most likely to satiate many fans' appetites. Read all about this fabulous role-playing game, in this brand new preview."

    Am I the only one who's missing old Lucas Arts games? I spent years on Full Throttle, Sam & Max Hit The Road, Day Of The Tentacle and Indiana Jones's Fate Of Atlantis!

    My guess is that they initially only intended it to be a PC game, but as MS is fond of pointing out, the port from PC to XBox is for more trivial than the port from PC to PS2. In effect its things like this that MS is banking on making the XBox a success. Why pay $700+ dollars for a PC to play the latest SW game, instead of $200 for an XBox.

    For a brief glorious moment our country was free of the parasitic corporate mechanism. That only lasted from the revolution to the early 1820's when an ASSHAT judge from New York decided that corporations had RIGHTS, and since they have more money than you or I, naturally they have MORE rights than you or I.

    That's amusing, since our Programmers that had colons in their sigs were asked to please take them out. Maybe I should inform them that they can put them back in, since I know a couple that would prefer it that way. :)
