Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II

THE GOOD:
New worlds, companion influence, what didn't change.

THE BAD:
Too easy, confusing at end, Blah story and characters.

SUMMARY:
It's a sad thing when a sequels best points are the ones that have carried over from the first, but with this game that is all that has kept it as high as it is.
I bought the game as soon as it came out and was severly dissapointed. For one thing, the story, which was one of KOTOR's Big sellers skipped a lot of beats. It is much less engaging that the first one and is also a lot more confusing. You don't really know why you're bothering trying to save the galaxy. The worst is the ending, which I won't devulge even though it's not that big of a deal. It really seems that Obsidian was either trying to be "creative" with the story, or they just rushed it in order to release it while the Xbox is still hot before Xbox Next comes out.
Next the Characters lack the emotional draw that they had in the first...

THE GOOD:
Graphics, Sound, all amazing.

THE BAD:
for peopel who do not like backtracking it might get a bit annoying.

SUMMARY:
The graphics in this game are some better then Halo 2, sounds are amazimg. I would have to say graphics are better since it doesn't have the graphic jumps form soem object here doesn't happens. If you are Star Wars fan you will love this game. Advance as a Jedy, 6 presige classes. New Force powers. New party memmbers. As you advance though the game you will having conversation wiht your party memmbers and gain influence or lose it, and depending on it... your party will hcange their alienment with you or against you. New Lightsaber colors!

The upsetting part of it, is that equipment is still very similar to the first instalment of this game. Some fights are too easy to fight, but some are very hard, no happy medium.

The graphics, although mostly the same, are improved. Although I think do the the more darker story, the graphics are just too dark. The first planet, it seemed almost too depressing. Also the weather effects where cool, although I never noticed it. On one planet, it sounds like it was raining and there was a storm above my head. But I never noticed any rain or anything. It was all the same, but with different ambient. And as I said before, the game was too dark, making it in a whole a rather depressing game on the inside.

Also, there where major framerate issues. Some times, by the end of a fight with only myself, two party members and one enemy. The framerate was horrible. For about seven seconds my character went from one frame to the other. It just quited on me almost. And then sometimes when you just walking, it'll slow down some.

Now, the story in this game was great. But, it had many holes in it. Somethings where skipped, that I thought should've been addressed...
