The Armchair Empire has posted a
review of Star Wars: KotOR II, giving the Xbox RPG an overall score of 8/10. Here's why:
...there are a whole host of qualities that are hard to quantify, and that help to make the game such a fun ride. The appearance of characters from the last game, for one. The more advanced lightsaber customization was another one of those things that made me think that the developers really did have a good grip on what being a Jedi is about. The instances where I caught myself actually unsure as to what was the ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ course of action always made me realize the strength of the game I was playing; it’s ability to pull you in and hold onto you until your three hour game session has turned into a ten hour one. And the simple fact that the developers had gone through and made everything feel smoother, and easier to grasp. Overall, KotOR II is not another game of the year, not even a contender; really. But it’s a solid game, and it’s a fun game, and it’s one that every game-starved, RPG loving, owner of the X-Box should pick up immediately.
