I think he's talking about KOTOR, Knights of the Old Republic. Some sort of Star Wars game maybe? They're talking about it on the Penny-Arcade forums, so I kind of know these things. They think it's "uber l33t"... whatever that means.

It means they can't spell. =P

Star Wars games don't particularly thrill me. Neither do most MMORPGs. So unless there's a REALLY good reason why I should play KOTOR, I won't. =)

Stupid SWer! You and your conventions and lack of games on BYOND sickens me!.
Don't take any offense to this, I just wished to see if it would work for all themes and it seems so.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Rebublic is an RPG for PC and Xbox. Supposedly, it's a really good single player game which feels more like Star Wars than other (Star Wars) games.

Yeah, I got it from a contest I won for a local game store, I haven't played it much, though. I'm planning on sitting down with it eventually and checking it out.

WHERE DID YOU GET IT?! I want King of the Road really bad man! You can only buy it from over seas!

By the way people, King if the Road is just like Hard Truck 2, but it has more features, such as smarter AI traffic, you can buy busses and other things, and do business with the Mafia. You can learn more about King of the Road, A.K.A. KotR at http://www.trucksims.com/ and http://truckpol.prv.pl/ .

It's not a MMORPG -- it's an RPG from about the most respected RPG maker on the planet, the company that did Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights.

The game has gotten strong reviews. I don't tend to finish these so I won't get it, but it's very much on the more intelligent side of this kind of game, about doing quests and diplomacy and such as much as combat.

Whoops! Must've confused it with something else. =)

Sounds interesting. If it's anything as slow as BG, though, I wouldn't finish it either!

My problem with BG isn't that it's slow but that at a certain point not too far into the game, it gets really hard. That stopped me flat.

I do hope someday to play all the way through BG and BG2 though.

Recently I got Fallout and Fallout2 for $10 total, and am hoping to get through them someday too.
