The battle continues

I enjoyed the game that came out for PS1. I had high hopes for the follow-up on the Xbox. This game doesn't stray far from the path set by the first game. All the great things are there but the faults remain. The series relies too much on your jumping abilities which shouldn't be the case for FPS. One blessing is the save anywhere feature if you remember to use it. You can easily cruise along then suddenly die and remember you forgot to save. You spend a lot of time over the same area looking for what you may have missed to complete the level. The game can be tough and some levels will take awhile to finish. For me I like that in a game. Some of the AI are dumb as rocks while others are quite crafty. The game looks good and plays good but the Xbox is capable of so much more. The epic Star Wars sound track sounds a little muted and doesn't inspire you much. I do like the game though and will keep it in my collection. I just hope the sequel doesn't turn to the dark side.
