I was kind of bored today and was flipping through the pages of this thread. Came across a fun discussion predicting the then next gen consoles, now current gen. Kind of amusing reading that stuff now that we are living it. Feels kind of like time traveling. Anyway, somewhere back in 2005, while talking about Playstation SW game, The Masters of Teras Kasi and how it was a bit crappy, Chaltab said...

Darth Chaltab said:Still, I'd like to play it a few minutes just to finally see a 3D Mara Jade in motion and such.

I can't understand why there has been only ONE game with Mara Jade in it, and a crappy one at that.


Even though this comment was made almost four years ago, being that Chaltab is still around, I thought I'd chime in and mention that Mara Jade stars in the fairly uncommon expansion to Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight, called Mysteries of the Sith (which is definitely worth tracking down a copy of). In that game Kyle Katarn meets and befriends Mara Jade, then he goes on to be seduced by the darkside after the first few levels of the game. From that point in the game on you play as Mara. She eventually saves Kyle from the darkside, which is why in the beginning of Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Kyle, no longer trusting himself with the force and the temptation of the darkside, has given up using the force and gone back to being an awesome gun toting mercenary. He only decides to go back and seek formal training from Luke's Jedi Academy™ after his partner is kidnapped (though he believe she was killed) by a Sith. Ah, good old Kyle, give up the force to avoid the darkside, then decide it is time to pick it up again to seek revenge...

Mara also appeared in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, I believe.
