A spin-off of Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy allows players to create their own Jedi, train in the Academy under the tutelage of Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn and ultimately choose to follow the path of the Light Side or the Dark Side of the Force. The game is powered by the same version of the Quake III engine used in its predecessor, Jedi Outcast, containing modifications to the Quake code to give a third-person view and new lightsaber effects (Jedi Knight II had these 3rd person effects as well). Players have the ability to construct their own lightsaber by choosing the hilt style and blade color. After completing certain objectives, new saber styles become available including the ability to wield two independent sabers in a style known as Jar'Kai, once used by Anakin Skywalker during the closing fight in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, or the double-bladed lightsaber (also known as a "saber staff").

The definitive Jedi Simulator. Only thing i miss from the previous entry is the first person perspective. Dueling in first person has to be one of the most intense and immersive experiences ever. However, still a great game, a MUST if you're into Star Wars.
Good game but the story is lacking.
Best mods and great community also great game.
The best Star Wars game
I love this game!
This game has the best lightsaber combat of any game of all time.
Awesome!

I love this game so much. I could just play it a 1000 times over. Which I practically did. When it came I down to light side or darkside I just couldn't decide. So I played the game a second time and did darkside. And after that I just HAD TO KEEP PLAYING>
