Hi, Chris. One thing I remember about allot of the older SW games is the maze for the level was half the battle. You had to search for things like keys and renches that would give you access to another part of the level. Even when you found them you had to figure out where they could be used to gain access to the exits. Other times the most obvious way was blocked. You had to double back, cut open a grate, climb through, and it gave you an alternative way in to the rest of the level. There was also several different ways to attack and escape from enemies. I remember in Mysteries of the Sith having Mara Jade walk across the roof tops of this Imperial city, and there were Storm Troopers on the streets where you needed to be. You could take them out in two ways. You could either draw Mara's blaster and try and sniper them, or you could ignight your light saber, leap down on them, and do a worl wind saber attack on them. I usually chose the second option as I was a light saber fan, but lost health points in the process of trying to cut them all down. In Dark Forces *II you played the part of Kyle a new Jedi learning to be a Knight. You basicly got to choose if you were going to follow the dark or light path. If you chose the dark path you killed everyone and everything including civilians without impunity. Like there was this old man on a ledge begging for help. If you were a dark sider you pushed him off or gave him the light saber to death. If you were a light sider you rescueed him. If you chose the dark path by the time you reached Jeric you killed him and took over the new order of the Sith. If you chose the light side you killed Jeric and the sith were defeated. As it turned out in the end Lucas Arts made Kyle Katern a dark sider. In Mysteries of the Sith Mara Jade is attempting to find the new Lord of the Sith. When she finally makes it to level 13, and finds the secret antichamber Kyle Katern is the new dark lord, and the Mara clone you killed was his aprentis. Here to Lucas Arts did a good job of given the player a choice. There was three endings to Mysteries of the Sith. One you turned Kyle from the dark side, two you died, or three you defeated him in an awesome force battle.
