JK3 will be with Kyle Katarn as main character.
[i]Jedi Knight 3: Jedi Academy[/i] (September 17)
[i]Halo: Combat Evolved[/i] (September 23)
[i]Half-Life 2: < Insert Subtitle >[/i] (September 30)
[i]Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne[/i] (Fall)
[i]Counter-Strike: Condition Zero[/i] (God Knows When)
Usually I can just decide which ones to skip over and which to keep, but the only thing I could willingly drop and still be able to look at myself in the mirror every morning is CZ. Even then, it's gonna be over $200. My birthday was July 9th, Xmas is too damn far away, and I can't trick my sister into wanting any of these for her Noverber birthday like I did with Meta Gear Solid 2 (:D)
I usually end up working only one day per week, since I'm a newbie (Using that term in real life now :D), and that = a little over $25. If she would give me as many hours as I'm supposed to work, I would be making just under $100/week. I NEED FULL HOURS every week before school starts in order to get 'em... and maybe even a little time on the riding lawn mower.
And that is my life's story.
[B]Does anyone think that these nestled titles are a bit ridicules. I mean, isn't the game's full title something like [i]Star Wars: Dark Forces IV: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast II: Jedi Academy I[/i]? How people keep them all straight is a mystery for the ages. [/B][/QUOTE]
Dark Forces
Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight
Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
This is the first one to no use it's prequel's subtitle as a title.
Dark Forces was more about guns, because a 3D lightsaber that could block stuff was too advanced. You got a lightsaber, but it was crappy in JK, then JK2 finally gave you a good lightsaber. It's the first real Jedi game, IMO.
(:D)
You get to choose, race, costume, saber handle and color. :)
And you get it from the start! WOOT!
[B]I hardly ever used the lightsaber in JK1, but in JK2 once I get it I use it almost exclusively. [/B][/QUOTE]
Because it was actually useful, and looked damn pretty. Especially with g_sabberrealisticcombat 1 :D
But it was fun to look at (at least, when it wasn't creepy), especially since it decided the death animation by what dismemberment happened first. I lost count of how many times I saw headless, legless stormtroopers clutching their wrists and screaming for a good twenty seconds. That was funny.
[B]The bitch of it is, saberrealisticcombat made the game too damn easy. There was no more fun in lightsaber battles when you could just cut off the bastard's head in the first five seconds.

note how he said Saberrealisticcombat 1
that turns it on, however the saber does no extra damage, meaning only the final blow dismembers, it still takes the same # of hits to kill.
saber combat 2 does alot more damage
saber combat 3 was an insta kill on anything. :)
saber combat 99 is basically 3, no noticable difference.
now, setforceall 99 had some SERIOUS advantages over setforceall 3 :)
two new stances and one FUN mind trick. :)
[B]How odd. People seemed to die much more easily with Saberrealisticcombat 1 on. Hell, I didn't even know that you could set things above their "maximum". I'll have to try the setforceall 99 thing. Sounds fun. [/B][/QUOTE]
1) Yeah, people did seem to die much more easily than normal.
2) Setforceall 99 allows you to actually control someone when you mind trick 'em.
I think JK3 will be Kyle and Jan's son/daughter in the NJO period.

THAT would be SWEET. Only bad thing is that it obviously isn't tied in with the writers' evil plan already. It will be like JK and JKII, defeat this threat to the galaxy that isn't worth mentioning outside your own game and doesn't disturb series continuity whatsoever. What WOULD be cool is if they had done it before hand, like they had offhand mentioned little Kyle going to do something, have it succeed, and then you get to do it.

Can you imagine fighting all Yuuzhan Vong? They'd be harder than Reborn, only be vulnerable in certain spots, and wouldn't give you ammo. :(
[Edit]I don't mean to say that Reborns are hard, I just mean that you need the Imps in there to give you ammo and just generally be fun to kill.
I imagine that getting an Amphistaff to be simulated properly will be quite difficult...but imagine having Jedi vs Yuuzhan Vong mp scenarios :D

not just NJO, but all the relevant EU books.
