She is an outstanding voice actor who really brings Jaden to life in an excellent way. But she is also Fall-From-Grace in Planescape: Torment, Samus Aran from Metroid Prime, female Commander Shepard from the recent Mass Effect 2, and a host of other characters in popular games, cartoons and other voice-over work. Many will recognize the name Jennifer Hale as Bastilla Shan from Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. Therefore after my first time through I have only ever used a female Jaden. Tanzini is a fine voice actor, but between his version of Jaden and Rosh the opening sections and tutorial quickly becoming more annoying than fun. The male Jaden is voiced by Philip Tanzini, and the female by Jennifer Hale. The other thing is that your gender choice impacts the voice acting (obviously), and since there is loads of dialogue throughout the game, it actually does make a difference.

In fact – the first two images I used were concept art and a wallpaper released in the lead-up to the game … and you can see how the Rancor translated to an in-game presence in another screen later.

Well, November came and went, but by January it was clear that something was coming … we just weren’t sure if it would be an expansion or a sequel.īy E3 of 2003 we were finally fully shown what was coming: a sequel to Jedi Knight II.

Continuing my love affair with the Jedi Knight series (see my Netbook Gamer reviews of the original Star Wars Jedi Knight, the Mysteries of the Sith expansion, and the Jedi Knight II sequel), I now move to the last game in the series, after which I will return to the first game (Dark Forces) to complete my look at the life and times of Kyle Katarn! For now, let’s look at Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.Ībout six months after the release of Jedi Knight II, there was much speculation of a possible expansion, fueled by rumors and folks with direct connections to Raven Software and LucasArts saying that ‘fans of Jedi Knight II will be very happy in November’.
