User Rating: 9.9 | Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic XBOX
A superb specimen when it comes to the RPG-- this game was, in fact, the impetus for my purchasing an XBox. It was well worth the effort. Not only do you have the opportunity to be a good or a bad jedi, but there is a nice deep story to dive into-- which changes depending on which characters you have with you. The changes result more in reactions and sideplots as opposed to main plot. The hunter robot is of particular interest, offering lovely side comments concerning the killing of "meatbags". Certainly, the designers infused a sense of humor into this title, and one cannot help but laugh as you play through. With the differing experiences offered through character classes (3 total), and good vs. evil, there is a lot of splendid replayability. Perhaps the only flaw is the sometimes frustrating inability for your party members to stay with you (a time or two they would run off and try to kill some enemy when I was not ready). Just make sure you keep an eye on the other two and switch over to them (a single press of the black button is all it takes) to keep them in lockstep behind you. Any fan of the RPG should own this title.
