Knights of the Old Republic instills great hope in us. Not only does it prove that a Star Wars RPG can work, and work well, but it also shows that there are still a few good games left to be made out of the license. Knights of the Old Republic provides a great RPG experience - an excellent narrative, a great skill system, interesting quests and a competent battle system. The game may not be for everyone, as those who don't enjoy Star Wars and previous BioWare efforts should probably consider passing on this one (though if you like one or the other, you should cope). The numerous bugs that have been found in the game since its release are also a cause of concern, even if we didn't run into that many during the course of our review. However, Knights of the Old Republic is the best new release for the Xbox this year and therefore definitely in the running for Game of the Year for 2003.
