Q. I know Jedi Knight is coming out for both Xbox and Nintendo.   But I was curious if there are any new features being put into it, I read on another site that it seems more things are being taken out then being put in.  I find this odd considering it won't be release 'til Christmas time.  Thanks in advance.

A. The only really new features they are adding in the console port versions are new skins for multiplayer (that weren't available with the release of the PC version) and the demo level. They are also changing the game to make it more console friendly (like splitting up some larger levels and the like). They've also scaled back the multiplayer mode. At last check, they weren't going to use online play for the console versions and instead limit it to four-player split screens with bots. I'm not too sure why they decided to take out the online play aspect considering Xbox Live launches this fall. So, pretty much you are correct when you say they are taking out more than they are putting in.
