Tops all Star Wars Games. Was a great start for other decent game like Academy and Outcast.

User Rating: 10 | Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II PC
After playing Dark Forces II when it first was released, I was stunned by how amazing of a game it was. Even after 10 years and several hours of playing the game, I still feel that this game is amazing. Lucas Arts made a game that had everything hardcore Star Wars fan could want. The story was far superior than any of the movies. The short movie clips were a nice addition.

One of the main things that made the game amazing was that you didn't have to play the game mainly using your lightsaber. There were several cool weapons, each with alternate fires. Killing several Gammorean pigs with your blaster rifle can be even more gratifying than using a light saber.

The force powers in the game were quite good for an early game, which helped pave the way for newer games like Academy, and Unleashed.

Boss battles were a very important factor in the greatness of the game. From fighting the padawan sith to the Sith Lord Jerec. All the battles were epic.
