Second to reading Helena L.'s stories. I read her Kotor parody and it is one of the funniest things that I have read.

KotOR is "Knights of the Old Republic", a Star Wars RPG made by Bioware.

Ah thats it! Yeah not played that game. I love the idea of star wars but I always fall asleep during the movies.

The game is much better than the movies, and if you liked Mass Effect, you'll almost certainly enjoy KotOR.

*eyes narrow, jaw clenches*
Revan could kick Vaders ass. And KotOR doesn't have incestuous themes hinted at. Also, the Ebon Hawk is nicer than the Millenium Falcon.

Okay....
Breathe, Buch.
First of all, incestuous themes are great! And now for the more serious points. Maybe Revan could kick Vader's ass, but you know... Rascarin, you KNOW that he wouldn't stand a chance against Luke Skywalker, Harrison Ford, Princess Leia and their hilarious puppet/robot/ghost sidekicks.
Not a chance. Seriously though, Luke would knock Revan's confused, amnesiac, non-gender-specific block off.
And- what? The Ebon Hawk is better than the...? WHAT? Sometimes Rascarin I think you're an okay sort of person, and other times... like this... God damn.
The Hawk is just an orange copy of the Falcon! That's like saying the Monkees are better than the Beatles. That's like saying Atton Rand is better than Han Solo. Or saying Ewen McGregor is better than Alec Guiness. Or Natalie Portman is better than Carrie Fisher! It's like saying Des Lynam is better than Richard Whitely. I have more of these.

I love KotOR - it's maybe my favourite ever game - but you're comparing it to my Bible here.

Damn... I feel left out...
I'm going to raise my hand in surrender. I haven't played KotOR yet and sadly due to the reasons that I don't have xbox nor a decent pc back then...

That is shocking that neither you Till nor you Zars have played KotOR.
It is a really, really good game- very much in the same vein as Mass Effect and Jade Empire, but Star Wars, and soooooo much better. Incredible story and dialogue, and characters. Well worth a look if you see a copy around some time.

I enjoyed the game more than the films. For the most part, I hated the majority of the characters in the films. Also KotOR is more Jedi/Sith-centric, which I prefer, whereas the films focus a lot on the starfighters and the space battles. The films just don't appeal to me in the same way. And to be honest, I thought Episode III was the best, simply because of the Lightsaber battles (also watching Hayden Christensen on fire, and Natalie Portman dying were added bonuses).
Also, Bastila would win a fight between her and Leia. Even without her lightsaber. =_=
One more reason why the game is better; HK-47.

It's the other two I have issue with. And I can see your points, and yes, HK is wonderful. For me, the Star Wars trilogy is one of the biggest memories of my childhood, and I do prefer the Starfighters and the Rebels and the Exploding Planets and stuff. I mean, I prefer it to be about 'Wars' rather than Jedi Knights. I thought the original movies - simple adventure yarns about young heroes cracking wise and battling Peter Cushing and his English space Nazis with ray guns- they're just more my style. (And sure Bastila would kill Leia in a heartbeat, but the fact is, Leia once wore a gold bikini. Also she was funny and had cool hair. Leia wins.)
