Review - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

In this review, I look at the first role-playing game in the Star Wars universe: Knights of the Old Republic.

ESRB Rating: Teen (13+) - Violence

You can purchase the game on Steam here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/32370/

All settings maxed at 1024x768. Watch in high-quality for best visuals. Music is from Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.

System requirements: 1GHz Cpu, 32 Mb video card, 4 GB hard drive space, 128 Mb RAM.
Recommended Specs: 1.6 GHz Cpu, 128 Mb video card, 512 Mb RAM.

To clarify my review scores (they're "rough" scores, meaning it's not supposed to be some sort of percentage or anything):
1 or lower = Terrible. Avoid at all costs.
1.5 = Has a few redeeming qualities, but still sucks and should be avoided.
2 = Mediocre (Sub-par). You'll probably want to avoid this one.
2.5 = Underwhelming, but playable.
3 = Average. Worth playing, but probably not at full price.
3.5 = Good, but has issues.
4 = Excellent, but has a few problems that could probably be fixed through patching.
4.5 = Exceptional. Better than 4 but still has a few problems that could be ironed out.
5 = Outstanding. Stuff in this category is pretty much "must own."

Does it play identically on xbox?

[DWTerminator]

There are control differences and the Xbox version doesn't have as good graphics. That's about it.

[DWTerminator]

Singleplayer RPG. No subscription fees. Just buy the game and you can play indefinitely.

[randomshytFTW]

Great game. And amazing plot twist.

[ProblemOfficer3000]

This is the best game I have ever played, if you want to get lost in a sci fi world that's as expansive as ever, get this you won't regret it.

[Liquidfoxdye]

[KyutoAbridged]

bought because i was looking for something new

[DWTerminator]

Back then the genres weren't quite as well-defined as they are now.

@DWTerminator I consider more of a W-RPG because it allows you to go your own way and is in almost no way linear.
