<A href="http://pcmac.gamehelper.com/">GameHelper</a> has posted <A href="http://pcmac.gamehelper.com/common/default.asp?App_Module=ARTICLES&ID=471">a wierd ass review</a> of <A href="Http://www.swkotor.com">Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic</a>. Of course, the fact the guy filled the <b>Cons</b> section of the thing with, <i>Do I even need to write something here?</i> is pretty sad. <b>Yes, jackass, you do.</b> You are a <b>reviewer</b> and there's no such thing as a <b>perfect game</b>. Anyway, they gave is a <b>9.5/10</b> and this is part of how it starts off:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>Star Wars’ greatest asset is its universe, the creative tour de force that combines technology with this rather Daoist ‘Force’ thing floating around, manipulated by gifted people called force-sensitive, possibly being trained in the use of the Force – called ‘Jedi.’ Oh, and they wield these swords that are laser-like and can cut through anything and repel blaster fire – not to mention cruising the universe via ‘hyperspace.’ <i>Star Trek</i> can only dream of this level of cool. Thankfully, where Lucas has been faltering, Bioware has been excelling and has succeeded in creating not only a fantastic Star Wars gaiden, but answers many questions that only the most diehard of Star Wars junkies would know already. Where did hyperspace come from? Check. What about this ‘long long time ago’ yet super-advanced technology stuff? Check. How did the Sith come to be? Check. What about that age-old ultimate race? Check.</blockquote>
<br>
<br>
People who like <i>Star Wars</i> more than <i>Star Trek</i> can't be taken seriously. As much as <i>Enterprise</i> sucks, it still beats the crap out of <i>The Phantom Menace</i>.

What a silly thing to say. Enterprise is unwatchable; the Meance was at least a watchable movie. And, that's coming from someone who loves Star Trek. TNG rules ALL!

I managed to watch half the first season of Enterprise before it pissed me off so much I'd never watch it again. The Phantom Menace achieved that in a little over two hours time - and that's really only because it cost me $20+ to see. If I were watching it for free, that time would have been cut in half.

I was going to try and read it, but the articles' title, quote, "Somebody fire George Lucas – get Bioware on the Episode III set." was a forewarning of the handjob that was approaching, so i escaped while i could.

Not really. 'casue reviewers make all kinds of mistakes even ones who like TOEE or dislike BIO games... All reviewers suck even unfofficial ones. The opinion that matter is my own. All other opinions are a nice read to past the time - much the same way I treat Summer Action movies. Watch 'em, and forget 'em. Game over.
