Although I'm sure I played it and I clearly remember the original Dark Forces, I have no real memory of playing any of the Jedi Knight games.

Was it good on Xbox?

I initially played the game on PC (I was a PC gamer back then!), HSH, but picked it up for the Xbox in later years. I like it but it's not as detailed, or quite as smooth, as the PC version. Still fun, though :) .

Has Burnout 3 ever been bettered for simple thrills in racing? In seriously asking.

Not in my opinion.
