bought this game Aug 2006 which is several years after its release and it still can compete with current games. very fun, especially for a star wars fan. not the sharpest graphics and transistions but its excusable. jewel case doesnt come with manual, just 2 discs. lightsaber and force play well done.

"Jedi Academy" is the latest in a long-line of Star Wars shooter games that began with "Dark Forces" (1994) and followed the adventures of Kyle Katarn and other new Jedi Knights. As with "Jedi Outcast", "Academy" has you fighting various enemies across the Star Wars universe as rendered by the QuakeIII engine. Rather than play Kyle, you lead the fight as Jaden Kors, one of his assistants - an acolyte jedi (who ya' callin' Padawan!?). Looking and sounding little different than Outcast, Academy stands apart in more flexible gameplay. You can alter the appearance of your race, gender, skin color, dress and (before this becomes less a game than some Supreme Court case) your lightsaber. Choose the color and style of your saber - single or double sabers, or the double-bladed saber-staff made famous by Darth Maul in "Episode 1". A semi-centralized mission/level structure allows you to play various unconnected levels - each with its own unique challenges and styles - in the order that you choose. You play a set of small-level missions, then one big-compulsory mission which ramps up the running story of the game.
The problem? While it's always fun to play "Star Wars", I spent much of my time just reminding myself that this was supposed to be a sequel to Outcast, with all the improvements that sequels should be expected to have. Using the same graphics engine as Outcast means that the game overall looks the same. Gameplay is new, but the differences aren't really ... Read More

Star Wars Jedi Academy is a lot of fun. I found myself unable to turn off my computer until I finished playing it. I completed Jedi Academy in a little over a week, playing about 2 hours per day on the average. I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes Star Wars. There is nothing like wielding a lightsaber and fighting dark jedi. I found that I rarely used the first person mode with a gun/blaster. The lightsaber was too much fun!!

This is my first Star Wars game I've played as a Jedi and it was the most fun I've had in a pc game. The only trouble I had was in getting used to using my keyboard and mouse to move my player around (only the first few tries). There aren't many choices of species but, the choice of sabers and colors make up for that.
The beginning is nice and easy so you can get used to using your force abilities. As you progress you get stronger and faster as well as bigger challenges. I really got into this game and came to like the characters alot. You get to travel all over the place and fight with a nice selection of weapons. The Wookie Bowcaster is my favorite!
The imagery is very good. Planets, creatures, and bad guys/gals were done very well. The cut scenes are fun to watch because they tie in with the whole story line. I especially loved the fight scenes with the Sith. The slow motion effects during these battles were awesome.
Overall, I had a great time playing this game. Some parts were easy while others were alittle bit of a challenge. Take your time and "use the force" to guide you. You will have so much fun and probably laugh at what those Stormtroopers have to say! Enjoy!
