Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast

Any time LucasArts recruits you to take up the Light Saber in defense of the New Republic, you know you�ll at least get a good Star Wars story, even if the preview version of this PC port shows its age.
The Rebel cause lives on in Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. In this faithful PC port, you�ll play Kyle Katarn, a mercenary and ex-Jedi on a mission for the New Republic. The first-person Star Wars combat played well, but the 3D graphics style was showing a little age. The touchy joysticks felt skittish at first but seemed to settle down into tight gameplay (maybe it was just a Jedi Mind Trick). Odds are this game will entertain young Padawans, but it probably won�t hold you until the next movie.
