    Talking Jedi Academy

    Bought this today and what can I say ! Fantastic game. Kyle Katarn appears as a master to 2 students one of them being the character you create at the beginning of the game.

    Start off by picking the body, head and torso, then onto blade colour and grip type.

    Been playing it most the afternoon and so far it has to be said the level that has stood out from the rest is Hoth. The detail on this is outstanding, right down to the yeti type thing from Empire Strikes Back getting hold of you upside down and you slicing its arm off !

    Just reached the Hutts palace and have come across the Rancor, not a very nice beastie at all. The lightsaber just tickles it !

    This is a must buy title for anyone that is a fan of Star Wars, absolutely superb.

    I agree with most of this but just feel its more like an addon for jedi outcast, its too similar.

    You use the direction keys whilst hitting the mouse button. This will give you a whole variety. Not forgetting as you progress you get the different fighting styles which adds to it

    When you get Dual Sabres, press both the left, and right mouse buttons at the same, time. That does a pretty cool trick, and sometimes affective against those re-born type guys.

    Yep as far as I know, you get a chance to change to dual or staff saber later on in the single player. I wont say anymore cuz it might spoil some bits.

    I really enjoyed this game so far. i felt some bits could have been developed further, and would have liked a bit of a longer game, but all in all it seemed to progress at a nice pace. And you didn't have to wait too long to get some decent force powers and some kickass saber fights going on!

    Well you start off with a single sabre, but then later when you prgoress through the missions you get to choose what kind of sabres you want, Dual Sabre, or Double Sabres, kinda confusing.

    If anyone is up for a game on the MP gimme a pm and we shall dual.

    I'd be up for a bit of MP on this. Finished it this morning and thoroughly enjoyed it start to finish. Be cool if there was a few people that would like to get in on a game. More the merrier
