Kotor 2
 
RJT
The average score given to this game (according to gamerankings.com) is a 86% - and what I want to know is was I playing the same game as everyone else?

- this has to be one of the single most disappointing gaming experiences of my life. When the first KOTOR came out, it was amazing. Sure the graphics weren't great, but the story and characters were compelling, and it was great to finally play a good Star Wars game after such a long drought.

So you can imagine my disappointment when, years after reading glowing reviews of KOTOR2, I pick up the game, begin to play it, and realize immediately it's exactly the same game as the first one. The "new" areas were essentially boring re-hashes, every single character bears striking similarities to characters from the first one, and for s sake - enough with the amnesia.

Absolutely pitiful experience - and anyone who reviewed this as higher than 5 is off their ing rocker.

That's what you get for trusting reviews from Star Wars geeks.

Didn't you read real reviews from decent review sites?

Never played this second one but agreed, the first one is fantastic.

While I'm sure you believe everything IGN tells you, you need to read my original post. Gamerankings.com is hardly constitutes "reviews from Star Wars geeks." They cull the average score from 98 reviews from various sources, and the fact that after 98 reviews it still merited nearly a 90% should mean it would be a solid game.

This, was .

agreed rjt. Such a dissapointing sequel. When I heard about the sequel I was overjoyed because I thought it wouldn't be too hard to replicate the greatness of the first! Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. So sad too. KOTOR 1 was an incredible game. I wish they remade it so combat would be smoother and a graphics overhaul.:D DA you have never played KOTOR 2?????

I thought it was agreed that the story in the 2nd one was infuriatingly pointless :conf:

fanboys strike again, I guess.

I don't read reviews with spoilers.
