| 18 of 20 people found the following review helpful  wow!, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?) This review is from: Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy (CD-ROM) This is a terrific first-person shooter and it’s long — so you get a lot of gameplay. While I haven’t played any of the multiplayer games, I thoroughly enjoyed single player. There are plenty of interesting missions with a connecting storyline (a Lucas Arts strength ever since Dark Forces) and if you’ve played other Star Wars titles like Dark Forces, it’s thrilling to see many of those same environments with better graphics, including your mentor at the Academy, Kyle Katarn! Before each mission you can select weapons to use in additon to strengthening your Force Powers, such as Healing, Grip, Force Absorption, Protection, Lightning, etc. By the end you’ve really customized your abilities. In one of the last levels you will choose the Dark Side or the Light, and this does affect the gameplay. You also get to ride a few different vehicles, which is fun, and I like that you can save anytime. I do have a few minor complaints — in the last dozen or so levels you must rely almost exclusively on the light saber, while I really like using a wider variety of weapons; the faces of players are oddly flat; and even though I met the system requirements I experienced slowdowns quite often. If you like FPSs or games in the Star Wars universe, you will really enjoy this game for Mac. May the Force be with you. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful  A fun game that still works on modern Mac hardware, By Jamie Flournoy (San Francisco) – See all my reviews = Fun: This review is from: Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy (CD-ROM) I bought this game used via Amazon a couple of weeks ago, just in time to come down with a cold. Lucky me, I’m stuck at home and too tired to think or do much else, but a nice hack and slash video game is a welcome diversion and not too tiring. What can I say, it’s a first person shooter plus Force powers. They did a very good job of integrating the Force powers and lightsaber with traditional guns and explosives, so you feel like you could whip out a blaster and zap a Stormtrooper, or cut him in half with your saber. The missions are okay; there is a reasonable storyline but not as involving as Knights of the Old Republic. But really the story is linear and your job is to go in, kill a ton of bad guys, solve some small puzzles (how do I open this door? How do I get across this chasm? etc.), and maybe kill a boss at the end of the mission. The most notable fact about the game is that it works fine on recent hardware. I have a 2.16GHz MacBook Pro (running Mac OS X 10.5.7) and played it on an external monitor at 1600×1200 with the maximum quality video settings and it was *fast*. (I downloaded the free Universal Binary update from Aspyr.com after installing the game but before playing it. Universal means the game is ready for Intel based Macs.) The cinematic scenes were sluggish and skipped badly (I guess the codec isn’t part of that Universal Binary upgrade?) and in one canyon near a Jedi Temple the 3D video was laggy when there was a lot of depth in the scene, but that was basically just on a bridge until I crossed it. Otherwise, the action was fast and the frame rate kept up at all times. Finally, I had a lot of fun exploring the physics of the game with regard to using the Force to kill the bad guys. I interpreted “Mind your surroundings” in Jedi speak to mean “use Force Push to shove them into the lava / off a cliff to avoid messy Lightsaber duels.” I probably had more Sith kills due to gravity than any other weapon at my disposal. And don’t forget that while some Sith can reflect projectiles back at you, many can’t… so you can use an explosive round to bounce them over the edge and into the abyss, no messy melee required. I highly recommend this game. P.S. use Quick Save often! 7 of 9 people found the following review helpful Best in the series of Jedi Knight, = Fun: This review is from: Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy (CD-ROM) This game is simply great. It runs perfectly smooth at 60+ FPS. The multiplayer is fantastic, with siege modes that include classes and vehicles. The storyline is definately Star Wars worthy. The game is NOT jerky and runs fine. I own this for my PC and MAC, and both run great, though i do get a much higher FPS on my PC which is around 90+. |
