Star Wars: KotOR Review

The braintrust at BioWare has constructed an absolute diamond in Knights, and Xbox owners should be foaming at the mouth to lay their hands on it. In a fashion typical of this esteemed company, KOTOR takes on a life of its own as you guide your character through the galaxy and mold him or her to your tastes. Become an apprentice of the dark side or strive for good it is completely up to you. The only gripes I have with the game are relatively minor (camera issues, frequently recurring NPC models), but I can't say enough about the unbelievable depth woven into the fabric of this title. Similarly, the skill architecture and rule bindings lend the title a kind of pencil-and-paper timelessness that is nearly impossible to resist. This is by far the best RPG ever released on Xbox, and is probably in the top five to be released on any current console. Buy this game immediately.
