Okay, so jedi knight jedi academy puts you in the place as jaden, a useless yet cool character. The customization in the game is pretty sucky. You get to be like, 5 species. It's not necessarily a bad game, but it really doesn't give emotions on characters. Rosh turns to the dark side, you save him. Also the levels aren't designed very well. The huge polygon wall is kind of unacceptable. especcially considering the value of the game. The weapons rock though, and you can shock somebody with force lightning as many times as you want. The lack of dismemberment really got my goat, as burn marks are the only thing you will even see as you hack a stormtrooper to his gruesome death. While this lets this game down a bit, it is still a great action game. The lightsaber duals are also very fun.
So what the heck, buy it
