2008-03-25, 12:16 PM #1

But seriously, Jedi Knight is great for the community that was formed from it. Jed was a blast, and waiting for TC's to come out was fun. Playing on the Zone was great times.

I didn't buy the game twice, but I did manage to scratch up both disk pretty bad to where I burned copies of every single DF disks.

I have all that minus the extra JK CDs and the books.

I do have the audiobooks though.

I can't play DF on the PC because no DOS and it doesn't work on Virtual Machine, so I might get the PlayStation version.

I can't play JK online unless I use Hamachi because of my router.

Yea I noticed my first copy of JK has a slight scratch on it that causes the music to skip and lag the **** out of the game so thats why I have a 2nd copy... and a ton of back up discs :suicide:

I still have JK, MotS, JO, a copy of JK, and a copy of JA.

I enjoyed the multiplayer of JO more than JK actually, but I loved the modding community of JK.

Got all the games from DF, and got every single SP level downloaded for JK/MOTS that's ever been released complete, as far as I'm aware of.

Yeah, pretty nutty. The books though I have never got round to buying.

I had just started actively playing computer games when I played MotS demo, liked it instantly, got the games yadda yadda yadda... but even though I kind of fondly reminisce their SP campaigns themselves (not much to talk aboot today but I won't deny playing through them like a million times in 1998-1999 and 2001-2003), the maps on Massassi (and TACC... and JKOutpost before those) were what really made those games great for me. HL may have CS and other mods that have thousands of people playing them, but it never had extremely cool and even a bit funny SP levels like Birth of a Mercenary, Leeza's Destiny, A Pirate's Tale, etc. Or maybe it did but that's really beside the point.

I'd figure I'd still be playing those from time to time rather often-ish if JK and MotS only worked properly on my comp. Of course they aren't graphically excellent, but it's still funny how great they are in the wake of endless CS clones and GTA wannabe level projects that are made for modern games. Correction, projects that get concept art and weapon renders posted on their bloated homepages with proper downloads every 5 years or so.

Good times... that said, I only have legal copies of DF, JK and MotS - no boxes either... man, I really should have kept those back in the day. Oh well. I also got the audiobook versions of the DF books back in the day, only listened to the first one... I don't remember it being that good, but at that point I finally realized where AKPiggott had got stuff for his BoaM storyline from :)

I was a nut with JK. Played it excessively online. Had all the games in the series. Haven't played any of them for years.

I only have one copy, but I somehow paid like $90 for it in 1997, so I think that means I've paid my dues.

Your books are floating.

Also you're missing the PSX Dark Forces CD. I have that one.

I have the same as you minus an extra copy of JK and plus the audio drama of the three books and a kenner (or hasbro) Dark Trooper figure. I downloaded tons of levels for DF and JK and have those on CDs somewhere.

Thanks for posting this thread. I realized that I must have some unpacked books somewhere from my last move. I noticed because of your books and I realized mine aren't resting comfortably on the shelf.

I have all the games, downloaded countless levels and mods for all of the games. So much fun.

I always wanted the books but could never find them. This thread reminded me about them though so now I'm going to go find them online somewhere.

Actually, if the books are very close to the audio dramatization of them, I would actually skip them. I only really read the first one and didn't get around to the last two. Of course there is the nutty collector value to the whole thing.

Not only did I pay over $60 for it in 1997, I had to buy it again for $15 in 2003 due to scratched discs. :colbert:

HA, oh for crying out loud, I thought he blurred it out because it was not related to DF. LOL.

Pretty cool collection there. I would say my limit was modeling my 2006 Civic in Jed. It was going great until JED crashed and I lost ~30% of my work.... one of those things you never care to recover from.

I have JK, MotS, JO and JA. I've read the DF books cause my local library had them. I still play JK and MotS on occasions because of my gaming clan, [URL="www.darkjedibrotherhood.org"]www.darkjedibrotherhood.org[/URL]

I have everything there except the books. Oh, my original MotS disc shattered while sitting in the drive. I still have the original box and the manual, but I'm running it from a safety copy I made back in the day. Got the original DF too. Damn I wish I had those books haha.

I have DF, JK, and MotS, as well as Soldier for the Empire. I guess my collection isn't as big as some of you, but I spend probably far more time than I should running JK in WINE with the hope of one day playing it well on Linux.

I bought a copy of the PS1 version of Dark Forces so I could play it on my PSP.

Replaying it was fun, the last boss is still just as creepy!

I have DF, JK, MotS, and JO.

Found 'em. They were in a box in my sons closet. Also, I found the DF Official Players Guide. Lot's of good info about the original title in that book. I do still have the original boxes for the original releases of these games as well as my JO version was the Collector's tin which came with a Win 95 version of DF and a miniature lightsaber.
