I can live with those NPC bugs, as long as the game doesn't freeze or crash I am happy.

Got it, played it, loving it :D
Without even realising it, i managed a 17 hour marathon till 7 in the morning... when daylight hits - you know its time to stop ;) A seriously great game. Some bugs (continuity, routing of NPC's framerate) but none of which are in detriment to the gameplay. However, i did have the game crash after 10 hours of solid play - havent seen this again and i'm assuming it was a one-off. |

Another Monkey Island quote,
"Never pay $20 for a computer game." Or should I really post that in the SWoWWII review comments? :o |

14-Sep-03 22:04:13 No bugs yet after about 16 hours of play. Well, maybe one small AI bug where one of my Jedi kept trying to force choke a corpse... Also none of the infamous corrupt savegames. (Which will fill your HD up FAST, 1600 blocks a piece, x45 already here) Ive racked up around 25 hours,and the bugs are pretty evident. The most annoying to me is the crappy pathfinding. Eg, you walk into an alcove to use a terminal. Your 2 other guys then walk up behind you, breathing down your neck. You turn around, try to leave.......and they just stand there and stare at you. Obviously easily fixed but it annoys the hell out of me when it happens over and over again. On top of that Ive had 2 corrupt savegames (both times the autosave) and 4 complete hangs/crashes. Luckilly, i save constantly so Ive only lost maybe an hour or two of gameplay. It's a fantastic game but i wish they'd fixed the known bugs for the Uk release. Edit: for lack of vbull

No matter what problems a game has, anything that has me playing till 1:30 in the morning, only 4 1/2 hours befor my alarm goes off must be doing something right.

Just reached THE TWIST, playing on the light side (barely... a Jedi's gotta eat, mm'kay).
Jeez, who'da thunk it? |

**MINOR SPOILER WARNING**
D'oh! 20 hours in and hit my first real bug. Korriban. Final trial. Can't use the ice grenade or activate the computer. Dang. And. Blast. |

I thought it was 4000 years?
It is not uncommon for civilisations to become less technologically advanced for some reason or other, just look at ancient Britain when the Romans left. If anything the KotOR era is more technologically advanced than the Star Wars films, I see no personal stealth or shield technology in the films at all. On another note, HK-47 has to be my favourite character, nothing to do with battle skills, his back story and demeanor is hilarious. |

Yep, it's 4000 years. And in A New Hope, Obi-Wan talks about the Republic being a more advanced and civilised age. So there you go.

People. This is Star Wars. Not actual history. You know Star Wars? Star Wars makes Button Moon look like old-skool hard science-fiction. The moment anyone tries to apply real-world criteria to anything in Star Wars the whole thing falls apart. It could be four years or four gazillion years, doesn't make the slightest difference.

Yes thank you Poindexter....the point is there's a storyline there, and even though it's set in a fictional universe those jedi are some lazy-assed bastards if they haven't done ANYTHING to their most basic weapon (the lightsaber) in 4000 years....! Peej |

But that'd be trying to improve on perfection. Like trying to make Kylie more pert. |

I'd say...
Definitely get it if you're into Star Wars or Baldur's Gate-style western RPGs. Otherwise, might be worth borrowing or renting* first to see, as it's not quite the be-all and end-all of gaming some might claim. You'll also need about 40+ hours to play it... *EDIT: Sorry, didn't read the post properly... I guess you'll have to find someone else who's got it if you want to find out whether it's worth buying a 'box for.
