<a href="http://www.homelanfed.com/">HomeLAN Fed</a> has scored an <a href="http://www.homelanfed.com/index.php?id=10954">interview</a> with the <a href="http://www.bioware.com">BioWare</a> guys about <A href="http://www.lucasarts.com/products/swkotor/default.htm">Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic</a>. Here's a sample:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote><b>HomeLAN- What can you tell us about the storyline for Knights of the Old Republic?
<br>
<br>
Casey Hudson-</b> The story starts off shortly after the Republic has won a war against the Mandalorians. At some point during the war however, something twisted the two powerful young Jedi who led the Republic to victory. When they came back from the war, they returned not as saviours, but as conquerors at the helm of an unimaginably large Sith fleet. Darth Malak, one of the two conquerors, lost his Master in a battle with the Jedi, but the Republic is unable to resist his overwhelming armada of warships. As the game starts off, you must find a powerful female Jedi who will give the Republic its only hope for survival.</blockquote>

A powerful female jedi, eh? I have this strange impression that she's incredibly hot and that your character falls in love with her and that I vomit.

I wouldn't mind having these idiotic written-for-a-teenage-audience romances if there was actual nudity involved. Even having the female character's top off would be good enough to make up for all the inanity. Aribeth's bouncing chainmailed boobies aren't enough to make up for her awful dialogue.

What I find really amusing is that plot is basically the same plot of Star Wars as well as The Phantom Menance. Powerful Siths roaming around, putting the galaxy in danger, so some Jedi have to seek out and find the lone Jedi who can save everything for them.

But the kicker is that a war fleet that defeated some bad guys is out roaming around, taking over the galaxy. That's almost like writing a post-WW2 based book where Patton goes bad after defeating Rommel, and takes over the world with his tank platoon.
