    Still the best lightsaber combat

    Purchased as a birthday gift for a brother in law. He had played this back on the original xbox and was happy to get a chance to try it out on modern hardware. I have played this both on PC back in the 2000's and now recently on both the xbox one x, supposedly enhanced, as well as more recently the PS4. My base PS4 doesnt make it look as sharp as the one x, but retention of online multiplayer for both playstation and nintendo(as well as PC obviously) makes this switch version the best overall for console play. The online multiplayer is supposedly cross platform too. A video-sharing platform search will show you how easy it is.

    Pure Nostalgia | One of the Best Entries in Canon

    Brought back so many memories of playing the PC version back in the day, but the Switch port runs much smoother and higher definition, even if there is not much mod support like in the PC. Fun action-adventure and hack/slash. One of my all-time favorites next to the original Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) in terms if narrative and gameplay. Overall, it is one of the best entries in the Star Wars Canon to ever exist.

    The Multiplayer is surprisingly still fun

    If can link up with people the light saber duels in this are pretty fun still. Worth picking up for $10 max though.
