Allronix Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Per Wookieepedia: July 17: 2002 - Jango Fett: Open Seasons 3 published. 2003 - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was released on the Xbox platform. I remember fondly my brother-in-law (who collects ANYTHING Star Wars as soon as it comes out) getting this game and how everyone was glued to it for months solid. I also remember my first impression of Mission Vao: "Who put my niece in Twi'lek makeup?" I also remember, on my first playthrough, hearing Juhani speaking about Quatra. The "out and proud" lesbian housemate heard the dialogue and was staring at the screen, going "There's no WAY they intended that. A lesbian character isn't put in games unless it was some kind of show for the guys..." (Turned out she was wrong in the best way). Anyone else want to share some fond memories from six years of KOTOR?
Litofsky Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I'm about to celebrate the lovely release of KotOR by starting another game! ...of KotOR II.
Shem Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I believe the anniversary was yesterday, but anyway... Happy Belated!
Astrotoy7 Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I recently started replaying it to see how it works in Windows7. The game definitely stands the test of time... I didnt feel like I was having a 'retro gaming' experience on it. mtfbwya
mimartin Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I'm about to celebrate the lovely release of KotOR by starting another game! ...of KotOR II. I'm just finishing the same.
Hallucination Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I also remember my first impression of Mission Vao: "Who put my niece in Twi'lek makeup?" Could I get your niece's number please?
Jae Onasi Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Could I get your niece's number please? Isn't she a little young for you now, you oldster?
Hallucination Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Mission was and looked about 14 years old. Assuming that Allronix played the game at launch that would place the niece currently at ~20 years old, or as some people say, >18.
Allronix Posted July 17, 2009 Author Posted July 17, 2009 *laughter* She's 19, in college, and has a very nice boyfriend.
JesusIsGonnaOwnSatan Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 happy release day to one of the best video games ever made. the story was amazing, and the characters were so memorable, i dont think i'll forget Carth, Bastila, Jolee, etc for a long time.
A L I E N Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 KotOR is still my most fav. SW game ever, time sure passes ^_^
adamqd Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Best Game of all times, I remember my first play through, day of release, Awesome then awesome now. Happy 6th KotOR(thegood)1
Ctrl Alt Del Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Statement: I still chuckle at HK remarks, And I definetely laugh out loud with Jolee huh... what was that again? And I do feel like a dad for Mission, and small near Big Z. Canderous is still a big Mando storyteller that's just a softie "unca" inside, and T3 bzeet, beep beep! Carth still hit on my character and is a whiny widow most of the time, and Bastila still gets embarassed from my blatant pick-up lines while trying to teach me about yadda yadda yawn. Happy birthday, KotOR! You still have a special place on my playing hand.
Darth_Yuthura Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 For me, it's only been two years since I was introduced to KOTOR. I was once a SW fan, but gave it up and had been solely a Star Trek fan up until that point. KOTOR was the reason why I gravitated back to the SW universe. It was truly the most amazing story/game series I've ever encountered.
Taak Farst Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 KotOR is out?!?!?! How long was I gone?!!?!?!? Happy Belated
Jason Skywalker Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I can't even begin to imagine how many hours i spent playing this game, and loving every single one of them. Happy Birthday KotOR! Now, if only K3 came out.
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 People still play this? Kill it with infernal flames!
Tobias Reiper Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 People still play this? Kill it with infernal flames! I hope you're not serious, for your own safety, put a JK thing there, or face the wrath of some people.
Drunkside Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Kill KOTOR?!?!?!!? BLASPHEMY!!!! No seriously its been a damn 6 years already... I think i bought my first copy 5 years ago, and since have played two cd´s out and bought three
EnderWiggin Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I love it as much now as I did then. For sure. People still play this? Kill it with infernal flames! RJM! Well there's a name I haven't seen in a while. Who knew that you were still lurking around here? _EW_
Darth InSidious Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I hope you're not serious, for your own safety, put a JK thing there, or face the wrath of some people. Their feeble skills are no match for RJM.
Darth_Yuthura Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I knew that as I squandered hours upon the game, I was wasting my life; but it didn't matter. I had to say that KOTOR was greater than the original trilogy by far. It wasn't a great action game like JK, and I remember getting frustrated that it wasn't what I expected. After only fifteen minutes, I threw the game aside and then I figured that if I wasted the money on it, I might as well... then I had become enamored by it in a way I never imagined I could in a SW game. It wasn't the ships, the battles, or the technology anymore; but the characters and story that caught my interest. How close I came to dismissing the game before really trying it.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 *laughter* She's 19, in college, and has a very nice boyfriend. Well thats depressing. lol Happy birthday KotOR
