A wide array of games have made use of use of the Star Wars license. While the first few games stayed close to the films, later titles have explored the rich history and varied worlds that have been touched on in the Star Wars canon. The latest and easily most ambitious Star Wars game to date, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, is the result of a collaboration between LucasArts and Edmonton-based BioWare, whose Baldur's Gate RPG series has earned critical acclaim and established a devoted fan base. We recently had a chance to get a closer look at the game at BioWare and have come away impressed with its progress. Knights of the Old Republic features a healthy mix of eye candy, RPG-style gameplay, and strong story elements.
