Let me star by saying i'm not usually an RPG kinda guy, however, when it comes to third person action RPG's such as Morrowind (another great game) i usually will give it a try. And am i glad i gave tyhis one a try. When i first booted it up, i was having all kinds of truoble, with lag, sound glitches, and other things, then i just turned on v-sync and i haven't had a prob since. Now to the good things. First off the gameplay, this doesn't play like most other RPG's for the PC, the action is in real time however u can pause it and give a line up of commands to your character and the rest of the squad. The hit space and watch the fireworks start. The effects of fighting with light sabers is just awesome, i mean it just rocks. If you want u can use blaster pistols and what not, but who wants those when u can have a light saber. The great thing is u can choose the light and dark path. I'm not too sure what the affects are excpet that the dark side sees a lot more action and money. I haevn't gotten far enough to tell if i can become a sith or something. One awseome side affect of choosing the darka dn light side is that ur appearnce changes, for example by character is very very dark and so he gets a kick ass gotee, unlike the prepubescent light side portion of him who just smiles a lot. A few bad things are that this game takes up all my free time and has made me a loosea pound or two from not eating. This is a must have for the Action/RPG person
