Here's a game you can play with your Tivo: ST:TNG Remote Racing! Game play: Record an episode. Predict when the commercials occur before the scene ending music begins and then hit fast forward 3. Resume playing after avoiding the commercials. Penalty: If you hear the music, you must watch the commercials; if you begin to play and it catches a commercial, you must watch the commercial. It provides great incentive to learning to finesse the remote because Spike TV has some of its worst shows advertised during ST:TNG. :/
Finished KotOR2 this weekend. It was most dissatisfying :/ Once you reach the last part, if you don't ask your opponent to tell you what happens to your cohorts, the game ends with an improbable cutscene. If you do ask what happens, you're subjected to half an hour of exposition.
I'm guessing they rushed this out the door to take advantage of the good hype about the original KotOR. While the story is pretty interesting, the overall impression is simply the game's not done yet. There's stuff that shows up on your in-game map that you can't get to because apparently, those areas were never completed but the indicators that they exist were never removed either. There's all the typos throughout. And there's missions you can take but then never finish unless you read a spoiler site that warns you to finish mission X before mission Y. A real shame, as I so enjoyed the first one.
