Universal Binary patch for Jedi Academy is here

Jedi Academy Jedi Academy was one of my favorite games. Not only was the game play great, but it ran spectacularly even on my old MDD. I mentioned a while back that a patch had been developed. It finally completed its run through QA and was bestowed upon us.

Once installed, I just had to try it out. One level turned into two levels, which turned into three…. You can see where that led. I was up until 4 AM playing an old game. Now if only the patch for Knights of the Old Republic (yes, another Star Wars game) would arrive, I’d be all set. Truth be told, it ran so horribly on the old Power Mac that I never got beyond the first level.

KOTOR and the Jedi Knight games are based on two totally different engines, so unfortunately one won't beget the other. The good news is that a patch for Jedi Outcast is also on the way.

I realize that, but I've also read that it is on the way and it's the one other title I'm really anticipating.

Marvellous. All I need now is a Call of Duty/United Offensive patch and I'll be happy. Seems a tad odd that they are addressing patches for the older Quake 3-based titles first, mind...

If I can't run X-Wing and Tie Fighter, who cares? :)
