Games based on the Star Wars license vary in quality more than any other license-based product to this day. For each great game such as Tie Figher, there's a miserable piece of crap like Star Wars Demolition. The trend has become worse in recent years with the number of bad Star Wars games beginning to significantly outweigh the good ones. The one thing that all Star Wars games had in common is that they were based purely on action. Revered PC RPG developer Bioware set themselves the goal of changing the way we look at Star Wars games forever by producing the first RPG based in the universe. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic isn't a traditional console RPG, however - it follows the more Westernized PC RPG formula, though this is not at all surprising, given Bioware's previous efforts. After numerous delays, Knights of the Old Republic has finally reached Australian shores. Could this be the end of the Star Wars slump?
