Wes Marrakesh Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I just wanted to see which of the four Dark Forces games everyone likes best. And apparently there is an unwritten rule that Yoda must be inluded in every poll... Personally, I say Jedi Knight. It had the best story, the light/dark options were awesome, the levels rocked, it was balanced, fun, it had good graphics for its time, and it's the first game ever to let you use a lightsaber. Which do YOU like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 i say a tie between jediknight and JO, as i love the option of being a sith and the two different endings and the story was great. but the graphics in jo are much better, you're got a round head! yeah i know jediknight had amazing graphics at the time.

MaulerZ Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I voted JO even it is getting boring *yawn* I just like the mods and the skins and stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratmjedi Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Jedi Outcast was just cool and no other game could compete with it. I loved it. I just wish it kept going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Outcast ownz all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Like Sivy B...for me it's a tie between Jedi Knight and Jedi Outcast. They both have their strengths and weaknesses. Mind you, with all the great mods in the works (such as the conversions of the previous games in the series) that will tip the balance in JO's favour. Those mod teams are doing some excellent work. *applauds* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JandoFett1842 Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 JO and JK1 Now is JO had an extra (hint to lucas arts about a feature in the JO xpack, cuz its obious your wokring on one ) that enabled you 2 play the JK1 levels remasterd in JO (no, not the JK1 tc that is being worked on, one by pros)!!!

Yoda_623 Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Well, since I've only played JK2: JO. I'll just pick Yoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CagedCrado Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I said yoda because i couldnt decide, all i know is dark forces 1 was the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacco Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Um, Duh! JK2 Love the graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jed Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 JK2. It's just a lot funner, and the MP is better. Altho like others have said, I liked taking the Sith and the Jedi side in JK1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky_Baccy Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 JK: DF2. No contest, really, though I'm sad to say it I hope JK3 is more like the original in spirit (of course I like the eye candy in JKII, but that alone doesn't make the game a classic, unfortunately ) -Edit- And of course, we must have Jason Court back for proper live-action cutscenes ^__^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CagedCrado Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I agree, graphics dont make the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Originally posted by Wacky_Baccy And of course, we must have Jason Court back for proper live-action cutscenes ^__^ Hiya Wacky! I have a new perspective on cut scenes...ditch them...all of them. If they're going to be rendered in the game engine anyway (which seems to be the way things are going), then it seems pointless to me taking control away from the player. Other games manage to impart information to you via NPC conversations while still leaving you in control of your character, and frankly I'd rather walk around, look out a virtual window onto a virtual landscape, or fiddle with items lying around while listening to the conversation. Also, they're usually more seamless, and the game doesn't pause while the cut scene loads. The only place I can see cut scenes being needed is showing vehicles en route to a destination...the rest can be done with careful scripting.

Wes Marrakesh Posted November 4, 2002 Author Share Posted November 4, 2002 Yeah, I agree with Storm. Half-life's cutscenes were great. And JO is great fun too... my JO clan, RC, is now at 5 years!!! (starting with JK of course) w00t w00t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky_Baccy Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Posted by StormHammer Hiya Waccy! Hi Stormy Turn ICQ on, or get AIM/YIM/MSN - then I can pester you I have a new perspective on cut scenes...ditch them...all of them. But there's something so... Human about them that makes you feel closer to the game... Well, me, at least... (And are you feeling all right, mate? ..."Ditch ALL of them"??! O.o) If they're going to be rendered in the game engine anyway (which seems to be the way things are going), then it seems pointless to me taking control away from the player. Hmmm... I can see where you're coming from, and i agree, for the most part... Other games manage to impart information to you via NPC conversations while still leaving you in control of your character, and frankly I'd rather walk around, look out a virtual window onto a virtual landscape, or fiddle with items lying around while listening to the conversation. Also, they're usually more seamless, and the game doesn't pause while the cut scene loads. True - that is good... I suppose with the new generation of engines that are coming out (eg DOOM3), the in-game stuff will look that much better, and not like some cheap horror flick (eg the horrible eyes in JKII)... Time will tell, but I think it likely that the cutscene will be superceded... ...Oh well, that's progress for ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben_Walker Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Jedi Knight for me. I loved fighting all those Dark Jedi with their own style of saber fighting. Plus the chooice between the Light and the Dark was sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
