Really? How can you be 'tired' of Jedi Knight? The whole series is 3 games long, basically (I don't really count the original Dark Forces), and the last one, Jedi Academy, came out in 2003.
That's not even taking into account how f***ing amazing the first two really were (and Academy to a lesser extent), but 9 years between sequels seems like enough time to cool off.
I can see your point. However, I would count the original Dark Forces in the mix as it was a great game. It was the first FPS in the SW universe and held its own.
JK: DF2 was good/great. AI was a little dumb but that was a long time ago. I still remember the boss fights. I'd always get worked by the little green guy.
Outcast was great. It had a good story and good gameplay. If I remember correctly it didn't add much to the mix except for multiplayer and I didn't play online at that time.
Academy was just boring. I didn't even finish it after trying three times.
what started to annoy me about the series was that it never changed its framework. go here, shoot the group of baddies, grab a key, go back to the other side of the level, shoot more baddies, get your lightsaber and just rule the land. there were a few times when you had to figure out the timing of a few bosses or movements of a couple baddies, but that was about it. Once you had your LS that was all you used going forward unless there were people sniping you that you couldn't run or jump to.
I do concede that 9 years is a long enough wait for the next installment.
