Game Overview

Follow the dangerous path of a pupil at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy!

The Bottom Line

In this new addition to the Jedi Knight series, players can immerse themselves in the role of a young student of the Jedi arts. Begin by creating a custom character to train with, undergo missions, and participate in multiplayer battles. Construct your own lightsaber, and choose your own fighting style, such as single saber, double saber, and the powerful dual-bladed saber style used by Darth Maul. Choose your own path as you learn to wield the power of the Force, pursuing the light or the dark side. On your quest to become the most powerful Jedi Knight, you will experience new vehicles, weapons, and expansive new Star Wars environments.

A nonstop action ride that starts out on a high point and manages to remain there for the entire game. Gameplay elements that can be tedious, like jumping puzzles, are limited, while the use of Force powers is accentuated.

I recommend this game for its great story, wonderfully intense battles and a killer multiplayer mode that takes the action online.

If you like Star Wars and think flipping around chopping up Stormtroopers and flinging Dark Jedi off of conveniently placed precipices is fun, then this game will satisfy. Just don't expect your battles with your inner demons to be as compelling.
