Star Wars - KOTOR Rated, Raved

Thanks to IGN Xbox for their full review of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic, the ravenously-awaited Xbox RPG from BioWare, which has gone gold and ships on the 16th July (Wednesday) in the U.S. The review gives the game 9.5 out of 10, and concludes that KOTOR is "..an outstanding game because it covers every single angle in terms of audience expectations. It's got enough Star Wars to satisfy the fans and enough pure fun to draw in people who normally wouldn't get into role-playing games. You'll see this on several Game of the Year nomination lists." There's also a mini-review at Unlimitedlives.com which is similarly effusive, if a little brief.

    Has anyone asked Bioware how they like their money hats?

    (Ok, so it's not an X-Box exclusive, but it's still funny).

    I love the poll on Bioware's website:

    Have you ordered Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic online?
    • Yes! I can't wait!
    • Not yet, but I will!
    • No, I'll buy it at the store!


    That's Pure Comedy Gold(TM).
