Sith: Since it uses the same (Bioware Infinity) engine as BG it has many game play similarities. The interface has changed slightly, I haven't used it enough to know for sure whether it's better or not, it's certainly not bad though.

They've done some wonderful things with music, in one location, the mosuleum(sp?) the music that plays during battle is absolutely riviting!

One big difference, since your character is immortal getting killed is not necessarily a bad thing. The manual says that death may actually be used to advance the plot of the game. A very interesting difference indeed!

Imran: Yep! You absolutely NEED this game! It really is AWESOME!

AJ: Well, having too many games is the worst thing that could happen, right?
