Title: Jedi Outcast Revisited
Product review: Don't get me wrong, If I had never played Jedi Outcast (to which jedi academy is its succesor) I would think Jedi Academy is a wicked cool game! BUT, it seems LucasArts has simply re-released Outcast with a SLIGHTLY different look, the same graphics engin, the same weapons, virtually the same force powers, the same characters...and only with a slightly different setting and different locations. Ok, yeah, you can choose which color your light-saber you use and what you look like etc.... wow - I've never had that in a game before (note the sarcasm). In my opinion, games in a series are meant to evolve and change over time - like Warcraft for example...the graphics and characters and story changed dramatically between the 3 games. An even better example would be the Ultima series -each game was different than the one before it (with some similarities inherant in being a part of the same game series.)In the end, Jedi Academy = Jedi Outcast - take your pick.
