Tags: Star Wars: Knights of the Old RepublicAn Australian site, Game Power, decided to show that Australians are not strangers to hype and posted this review of everyone's favourite game, KOTOR, giving it 9 out of 10 for overall awesomeness.
The arrival of Knights of the Old Republic may well spell the end of roleplaying games where the player is merely a bystander, jumping through hoops to reveal a pre-determined story. If you've ever enjoyed the Star Wars universe or roleplaying games, and even if you haven't, you can't afford to overlook BioWare's latest masterpiece.
The combat isn't real-time, although it may appear to be, which means that your characters vital statistics, class, skill set and weapons all matter in a battle – your hand-eye coordination doesn't, and if your statistics aren't a match for your opponent's, no amount of ducking, dodging or blocking will save your skin.This is the most creative and dumb explanation of why KOTOR's combat isn't RT evar.
