The first thing to note, however, is that Knights of the Old Republic: The Sith Lords doesn't pick up where KOTOR left off, although the events of the original game will have a significant impact in a number of ways. With E3 just around the corner though, we're finally getting an idea of what we can really expect from Obsidian Entertainment, one of BioWare's trusted allies in the battle to deliver intelligent and embryonic Western RPGs, drafted in by LucasArts to pick up where the original Knights so expertly left off. Up to now, every nugget of information - no matter how slight - has been swallowed, digested, regurgitated and then dissected in increasingly minute detail, leading to all manner of unlikely predictions and gossip. Interest in the sequel, then, is understandably intense. It was a gripping adventure unique to every player, and Halo's irrepressible popularity notwithstanding, rose to the top of a lot of gamers' Top 10 Xbox lists shortly after its release.
Whereas George Lucas clearly had difficulties returning to his sci-fi franchise on the big screen, the veteran PC RPG developer delivered an epic journey more than worthy of taking place a long, long, long time ago in that infamous galaxy far, far away. To the majority of people who played it, BioWare's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remains one of the finest - if not the finest - titles ever to grace Microsoft's big black box.
