Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords is the next chapter to the award winning game of 2003. Set in the unique timeframe of the Old Republic, 4,000 years before Star Wars Episode I, The Sith Lords features an all-new more perilous storyline, new characters, classes, locations and force powers.

Approximately five years after the events of the original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, the Jedi, nearly brought to an end by the Sith, are on the brink of extinction. The galaxy is in turmoil and the Republic no longer has the strength to protect its worlds. Sith Assassins are hunting the one they believe to be the last of the Jedi, the one who holds the key to the fate of the galaxy - You.

In addition to an all-new storyline, The Sith Lords will feature a host of memorable returning characters along with sinister new villains. Using over 30 new Force powers, players can turn weak-minded enemies against one another in combat with Force Confusion or see through doors and view character alignment with Force Sight. Players can also explore and battle their way through seven diverse worlds, including the mining colony of Peragus and Telos, a wasteland being rebuilt after its destruction during the war in the original game.

After creating a Jedi from the start with access to specific Jedi abilities, players can split their party to use several characters from your team for concurrent side quests. Tasked with protecting the Old Republic and the Jedi Order from its ultimate demise, players will be challenged with choosing the light side of the Force or surrendering to the lure of the dark side - as the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance...

    Pros: New Powers / Cool Abilities

    Cons: Mr. Neanderthal (with ADD to boot) wrote the script

    If you liked KoTOR: Knights of the Old Republic for its storyline (and I did enjoy it immensly), you may have digestive isues with The Sith Lords. Lacking in continuity, with logistical issues, plot and storyline, KoTOR II left me wondering "Wha...t happened...? I mean, really, what happened!?" In act one of The Sith Lords we get the taste of new cool powers/feats, which are blown away by a dull, middle-schooler mentality plot, devoid completely of anything noteworthy, save the incessant sarcasm from the NPCs dragging behind you. Oh wait, we do learn that all Jedi basically have been killed in the last 5 years (since the end of the first game) and that you are the last remaining Jedi and for some innanely obsessive reason, the Sith have focused their entire effort on killing you...not sure why, because, per the inane plot, some 10 years ago you have been evidently stripped of the force by the Jedi order (I bet, no matter how many Star Wars books you have read, you did not know that other Jedi could simply STRIP you of your force, did ya'?). Well, act 2 starts off diving only even deeper into the same well...and the badly written script gets only worse. In conclusion, when you are going to publish a game that is plot-driven, at least make it have a worthwile plot. It doesn't have to be an oscar winner, but at least let it make sense. Selling a gibberish script-doodle for $50 on a non-refundable product is simply unacceptable! Overall experience: this is a $19.99 product, not worth the price it's asking for. I give this game 2 STARS for expanded skills/powers tree (ie. potential for even cooler characters than the original had). All other aspects unfortunately are average to miserable. The too-frequent crashes to the desktop do not help. Read more Less

    Pros: Better items, much more items, Better dialogue with other characters, can make other characters jedi

    Cons: storyline is nowhere in comparison with the original

    This game is going to take ya prolly 35-40 hours to beat the first time, but only like 25-30 your second and then on. The storyline was nowhere near as good as the first, however, there are much more items, upgrades, you can make items now and you ca...n train your companions to become jedi to fight along side you. Your dialogue still can change weather you are light or dark, but now you have influence with your companions, and with 3 of them you can make them jedi. Your other companions just fill ya in on what happened with reven and yourself between the games. You gain influence with your other cmpanions by simply telling them what they want to hear. easy enough. The only thing thhis game lacks from the original was the storyline, everything else is much better. Read more Less
