The battle over Endor was especially memorable.<br /><br /><br />I'm also in your camp when it comes to Battlefield; serviceable but done better (and earlier) by other shooters.Scott Justerhttp://www.experiencepoints.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967694277763110629.post-40011019529118994522013-05-31T20:57:23.364-07:002013-05-31T20:57:23.364-07:00Jedi Power Battles...wow, that's a blast from ...Jedi Power Battles...wow, that's a blast from the past.

How come none of you brought up the Jedi Knight series? <br /><br /><br />It was the first Star Wars that really blew my mind as a youngun', and it's first person light sabering has not been replicated for some strange reason. The use of powers and particularly the boss battles were absolutely amazing, and I never understood why Lucas Arts never revisited that concept. 3rd person "shooters" are all fine and dandy, but those 1st person battles felt a hundred times deeper.<br /><br /><br />Also, I believe it was the first game that had a light side / dark side moral slider, and it effectively determined what powers you had available. Again, this might be a forgotten gem - because for my money, it was just as much of a gem as KOTOR and KOTOR 2.David Menéndeznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967694277763110629.post-56678208815884913982013-05-16T05:23:51.159-07:002013-05-16T05:23:51.159-07:00Oh man, this is a tough choice.

I've yet to see a game that was fun when AI players fill out all the empty slots, and this was no exception. And the overall experience was just a poor man's Battlefield, and that came out ages before!David Simonhttp://profiles.google.com/david.mike.simonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967694277763110629.post-90060749510701327192013-05-16T02:12:25.768-07:002013-05-16T02:12:25.768-07:00Great show as always!

For the record, you could play as the Jedi Council Keldor member in Jedi Power Battles... not great but fun all the same.Federico Otnegakhttp://www.facebook.com/federico.otnegaknoreply@blogger.com
