You can do anything in the game multiple ways. Instead of fighting the Rancor, I had come across some datapad from a dead guy down there that said his team of scientists was trying to test out some sort of smelly thing that attracted Rancors to a trap. They all died, of course, but I found a vial of the stuff. I stuffed a live grenade in a body in the Rancor's lair, put the vial on it to attract the Rancor, and watched with glee as it came over and ate the grenade! It shook it's head a few times, sniffed the air, then belched out a gout of flame and fell over dead. It was funnee.
Yay for simple lack of decisions

But I want the hopefully player custom content that the PC version shall allow! But it isn't coming out till round October!
There will actually be downloadable content for the Xbox too. Not player made, of course, but BioWare is going to release quests/items/add-ons/whatever through Xbox Live.

You only call it "Enhanced" because you're jealous you can't play it now.
It's not only enhanced but it will be cheaper too!
This is a game that was definitely made with a console in mind -- the way the entire game plays is fitting of a console game -- if they don't add a point and click type interface to some things its gonna be a huge pain to play on the PC.
And is it "enhanced" because you get to up the resolution or somethin? Heh.

Morrowind was pretty sad on the X-Box, not so much because of the play style but because it missed two expansions and all the patches that added so much to the game.
Game of the Year edition is gonna have both expansions in it.
Or is it like Morrowind in so far as that the game is linear, meaning you can do the main quest and nothing else, or the main quest can be interrupted whenever you want for subquests and subquests on those quests, etc.?

There is no such game as Baulders gate.
Maybe you meant Baldur's gate?

It's in between. It's not as mind numbing boring in the open endedness department(really, you need SOME kind of direction ) as Morrowind, but it's not like you can't go and do your own thing for a while. You can get lost for hours in side quests on the various planets, and with the Light/Dark side meters the ways you finish even the smallest side quest will determine how the main quest goes(it's different for a Jedi than it is for a Dark Jedi. so if you start killing first and asking questions later on all the side quests, then you're going to fall to the Dark Side and change the course of the main quest).
The best part of the light/dark meter is how it affects the way your party members interact with you. And I don't just mean them giving the cold shoulder but still merrily fighting along side you like most games that allow you to be good or bad. If you're on the extreme opposite end of the spectrum with a party member, they may attack you if you open dialogue with them and say things they don't like.

That's what drove me away from BG2, Freedom Force, Dungeon Seige, and almost Fallout and Fallout 2 until I learned you could just use them as mobile backpacks.

Party members in Knights of the Old Republic pwn. Especially HK-47. He's even funnier than Harold in Fallout.
He's an Assassin Droid that hates everything that's not a machine, and everytime you talk to him he tosses a subtle insult at you. This one time he called me a meatbag and he goes, 'Did I say that out loud?' when you tell him he shouldn't call you that. [ 07-19-2003: Message edited by: Cool Hand Luke ]

Erm... higher resolutions, better textures, point and click interface and I've read something about the action sequences to be different than on the x-box and extra content.
Enhancements aside, if I had an X-box (huge, lol), I'd buy it now. But so, I will buy it later and safe money. Yay.

It's more like Neverwinter Nights, except much better, in that it is linear, but with a LOT of room to play around with, your character development affecting plot, and sidequests.
For one, it's way too easy to dual wield two lightsabers and use a double bladed saber. In the books and movies those have always been reserved for those strongest in the Force(Anakin and Luke are the only dual wielders I can think of from the books and movies, and Darth Maul, who was pretty kick ass despite his embarassing end, is the only one with a double bladed saber I can think of) so they don't go cutting their own arms off trying to swing two weightless blades. But in Knights of the Old Republic any level one Jedi can pick up two lightsabers and use them like a Master, if they've picked up the Dual Wielding feats before becoming a Jedi.
And you can only dual wield weapons of the same type! I wanted to be a Swashbuckling Jedi with a blaster(pistol!) and lightsaber(sword!) dual wielded so I could terrorize the High Seas.. err.. Space.. err.. whatever. Arrrrr!
That's retarded.
People without force training risk cutting off a limb just by turning a lightsaber on (Hey, Bob, which way is up with of these things? AHHHH! *thud*)
Thats just not cool, and no mixing weapons? wTf?

Well, you have force TRAINING. You don't start off as a Jedi, though. It's a good five or six hours into the game before you can become a Jedi. But you train at the Academy for a while.
But it's still kinda dumb that you can dual wield them like a Master when you're not even a full Knight yet.
And the Dark Jedi is pretty cool. My character is going through the game as a Jedi first so I haven't seen it first hand(after I beat it I'm going through as a Dark Jedi, since there's two different endings ), but when you start turning into a Dark Jedi.. your character's look starts to change like Sidious's from the movies. Your skin gets all wrinkly and pale and your eyes start to sink into their sockets.
I must get this, and frozen throne, and EV Nova(unless someone lets me use there reg code) then whatever other flavor of the week.
Argg!
