The sequel to the hit Star Wars Knights of the Old Repiblic (KOTOR) takes place a few years after the events of the first game. You play as a character that is hunted by the Sith because they believe that you are the last Jedi around. One of the innovative features of KOTOR was the ability to choose between a light or dark Jedi. This feature returns, but it is a more subtle change throughout the game. Your transformation to the light side or the dark side also effects the looks and actions of members of your party. There are a few new force powers mentioned within the game. The first is an ability that lets you see the alignment of characters on the screen. The other ability mentioned is a dark ability called Force Crush where you can crush enemies with the power of the force. Look for more on KOTOR in the upcoming months as the February 2005 Xbox and PC release date approaches.
