StarWars KOTOR

[YOUWIN]

Mine turned up from Goblin this morning (along with loads of other things). Hurrah!

yup got mine too - good ol' Tronix
cuppa tea just made, smoke is rolled, just gonna sit in the garden and read the 50 odd page manual

i feel all excited like a big kid

That's good, Goblin managed a similar delivery time as Tronix.

Faith restored...

I hope mine arrives today as well, Living in N-Ireland post can sometimes take an extra day or so, But that doesn't always happen.

Now if it arrives i just have to resist playing it untill i've completed Skies of Arcdia Legends, It's gonna be harsd.

Yay, Mine turned up from Goblin also.Now only about 20+ hrs to go on Skies of arcadia , I wonder if i could play them both and make sure i don't neglect one of them.

I just got an email from my flatmate....there is a package out side my door. I can't remember ordering anything else, so it must be KOTOR. I think I'll be using Tronix again.

[Treble]

When did you order yours, and when was it sent? I think mine went out either Tuesday or Wednesday morning last week. Maybe mine's at home too....

[Brodie]

Yay! Mine was posted from DVDBO on Saturday!

SHould give me just enough time to finish Wind Waker and get ready for some serious Jedi action.

TBH I'm not a huge RPG fan, although I've enjoyed a few in my time, but I've been waiting so long for a new quality Star Wars title that I'd probably have played Kit Fisto's alien-dreadlock weave sim if it had favourable reviews...

Plus I got my Box chipped and have only bothered to buy SC2 on it sinc, so had to justify doing it somehow

Well I'm about 5 1/2 hours in (nearing the end of Taris), and I can honestly say it's a great game so far..

I'm particularly enjoying the light side/dark side responses to questions, the star wars'y atmosphere, and cinematic sections are top of the range. Seriously, it's a great game.

Just for the record, my only slight issues so far include the frame rate, which can get more than a little choppy, and the graphics are just a tad on the bland side on the inside of buildings/rooms etc. Also, it's possible for your team members' ai to be a bit below par in battles - for example one team member may just stand there whilst the other two are getting a kicking from a Rakghoul. It hasn't happened to me too often (most often in confined spaces) and you can switch characters and move them into place yourself.

Loading times from the disc crop up reasonably often as you move between areas. The default setting has it auto save before it loads up the next section - which adds another 5-10 seconds, making a total load time between sections of typically just under 20 seconds (but you can disable the autosave feature).

Anyway, I do love the game so far - you guys are dead right to be looking forward to it. If Edge were reviewing it, I hope they'd give it a 9 as I'm enjoying it so much so far, but it would probably be an 8.

I ordered mine on Monday night (during Spooks) and it shipped Thursday. I hope it is KOTOR outside my door anyway.

Just a little +1 for tronix.
Ordered on Friday 18th and it arrived today.
Haven't really got into it yet, just put the disc in to make sure it worked.

Must get back to it...

For those enjoying it and have been playing in the region of 5 to 10 hours. Just wait. Just wait! It gets better and better.

I'm about 35 hours into it now. And massively impressed. Its definetly without a shadow of a doubt BioWares finest hour.

I believe Edge gave Neverwinter Nights a 9. If so, then in my book, Kotor is a 10. Easily. In fact in my book it is a 10. The 35 hours I've played are amongst the finest 35 hours gaming I've had.

In fact I think its even managed to knock Ultima 7 off my 'all time greatest RPG' pedestal. And for those who've noticed how often I bang on about that game - you'll realise just how impressed I must be!!!
