Yeah, II is great, esp on PS2. Theres something truly awesome about force running/attacking from clone trooper to clone trooper. Space battles are fun too, though they can get boring.
Empire at war is a good game, as well. Essentially a RTS version of Battlefront. Though, in this case the space battles are fuckin awesome, but I find the land battles lacking. I played a totally epic space battle the other day that went on for almost an hour and a half. By the end there was like 3 dozen capital ships that had been destroyed.

About 10 years ago, I met a kid (16 yrs old) named Luke who had never seen the trilogy. He said that all his life people have been saying "use the force Luke" and "Run, Luke, run" and he doesn't even want to see the movies. So, of course we all just thew every possible Luke-related quote we could at him until he left.

I have this intern kid at work that I am saddled with every summer. He's never seen the original trilogy, any Indiana Jones movie, ghostbusters, etc. WTF?
kidnap, strap to a chair infront of a tv, play all aforementioned movies one after the other. Rape.

They need to make a movie outta this shit. Dark and violent, the way it should be. Just finished Vol. 1, I really liked it. Darth Nihl is totally badass.

I don't think Chris had ever seen the entire trilogy until Beer Wars '09.
I had a dad and his 5 yr old come in the store and were talking about the prequels until his dad said "you know there are three other movies, the originals." The little kid almost fainted and begged his dad to go home and watch them immediately. It warmed my heart.
The KOTOR comics started out pretty good, takes place during the Mandalorian Wars a few years before the game. I stopped reading before the end of the series (I really havent picked up a comic in a year or so), but I wasn't really liking the direction it went.
The really old stuff, like the Tales of the Jedi series, really isn't very good. It's interesting if you are really into Star Wars lore as it goes into the original Sith Wars and Exar Kun, but on their own the comics are kind of shitty.
Honestly, I think the best stuff in the EU nowadays is happening in the post-New Jedi Order/Legacy era, both with comics and novels. I still have to finish the Legacy series and pick up the new one with Cade Skywalker. And I need to pick up the most recent Fate of the Jedi book.

Stupid KOTOR trades. I have all of them except for volume 5 or something that's mixed in with the Vector story line or something. In the mean time, I've been spending A LOT of time with Deadpool.
The Vector storyline was actually kinda cool. Or at least the KOTOR and Legacy chapters of it were. Celeste Morne was a really cool character.
