The first-person shooter has come a long way since Wolfenstein 3D, but let's face it -- there's still a long way to go. Jedi Knight is a big step up from the current slew of Doom sequels, providing both great single-player gameplay and sophisticated multiplayer options. The kicker is the introduction of the lightsaber as a weapon, shield, and back-up light source. It's a welcome relief from the usual guns, grenades, and rocket launchers.
