You don't want us to spoil it for you, surely? :P

I tend to think KOTOR 2 does most things better than the original, and I like the increased darkness.
Haha, no, not really. I've mainly forgotten what Darth had to say about it. Am enjoying it though. The additional classes might mean I actually replay this one. (I couldn't face going through the 1st one again.)

I have never been able to play the KOTOR games, I found them too boring. I can't play games which are based on films... don't know why, though(only expection is James Bond: Nightfire, I liked that).

Yeah, I dunno Quee...I'm usually the same, but I make an exception for SW games. Well, the ones that are only loosely based on the films anyway. :D

Only movie game that I really enjoyed (aside from the first KOTOR) was the N64 classic GoldenEye 007. Although, the last time I played it was very awkward. Hard to use a controller pad after being so used to an ultra-sensitive mouse.

I consider the plots of the KOTOR games better than those of the films. Were you good or evil?

Agree on the whole. :D

I was good. Had Light Side Mastery by level 15. :D It's very hard for me to be otherwise really.

Still, have started a replay where I'm trying for Evil instead. :D

Really? When I first got the game I played it 3 or 4 times through, immediately after one another. I think I played it one more time a few months after that.

I tried the demo of CoH. Was surprised to see it run on my comp. It might be my next purchase--either that or Warcraft III.

As for me, I'm playing the new Dawn of War expansion (Dark Crusade), made by the same folks who did Company of Heroes. They sure know how to make an RTS!

In fact, I'd go so far as to say they've dethroned Blizzard (until StarCraft 2). Of course, there's other superlative companies: Ensemble Studios (Age of Empires), Creative Assembly (Total War), Gas Powered Games (the upcoming Supreme Commander), etc.

I've played through it twice in succession. The second time was pretty speedy - more so than KOTOR 2. The sequel seemed so much longer than the original, I couldn't face another play without a break.

Anyway, I'm currently playing Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Never did finish it, so now making the attempt.

Replaying the Jak series. Finished Jak and Daxter 100% in two afternoons, on Jak II now (have only played it once before, and didn't try for maximum complete, so a little harder on top of the increase in difficulty the game already presents).
Anyone know what the maximum completion is for Jak II? I got over 100% last time.

Pro Evolution Soccer 6.

Not much different to 5.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.
