|
In covering those four bases, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is not only providing one of the very best interactive Star Wars experiences, but it's tapped into the very soul of the Star Wars universe that drew hundreds of millions of fans to the franchise in the first place. Developed by Bioware, Knights of the Old Republic is stronger with The Force than any George Lucas-powered movie that's come out in the last 20 years and lands on the Xbox as one of the very best titles the system has to offer.

There's tons of character development, a combat probability system and a giant inventory to manage, so I guess KOTOR gets clearance as a role-playing game. But as both an RPG and a Star Wars title, it strikes a marvelous balance of hardcore authenticity and accessibility for the uninitiated. Pen and paper players can check the log of dice rolls used to calculate the success rate of every trigger pull or lightsaber swing. Freddy Fanboy can geek out for hours at how well the Jawa language has been adapted for a videogame. And even the coolest of the cool hip kids will be able to see the appeal of swinging double lightsabers and choking fools from across the room. It all begins with a rock solid story that really does begin a long long time ago.... Everything you need to become the next Dark Lord of the Sith or the savior of the Republic! Character creation, leveling up, how to choose your path to Light or Darkness, weapons, items, the art of conversation, and mini-ga... |

| 23. | Cottontail | ||
|
Someone unused to being naked outdoors. Used by nudists to denote people uninitiated, or recently inititated, to nudism. From the untanned color of such a person's posterior. Not wanting people to think he was a cottontail, he spent time on the sunbed to get rid of his tanlines.

|
A bass clarinet is a musical instrument. For the uninitiated, a bass clarinet resembles a regular clarinet, but it's shaped a little more like a saxophone and sounds a little more like a cow. Boy 1: Did you hear that cow?
Boy 2: That's actually a recording of my bass clarinet recital. Boy 1: Great... um... I think I hear my mom calling... |

| 25. | Chicken Cottage | ||
|
A fast food franchise which to the uninitiated would be considered a rip off of KFC but those two who have sampled its chicken know that it is more than that. The flagship store in the heart of London's gangland (Tooting) has been privy to a wide number of crimes including murder and chicken molestation to name but a few. 5 Star items include the steak burger which will shake the very bones out of your body and the BBQ wings. Alvyn: i just won the lottery and i'm going to spend it all on the awesome chicken found in...Chicken Cottage!

| 26. | Punch the Muffin | ||
|
An ambiguous phrase used in a purely contextual manner. Amusing because it means nothing & everything at the same time; use is only limited by the user's imagination. Sometimes used to confuse the uninitiated. Yo bro, i gotta go punch the muffin (Take a dump)
They were punching the muffin all night (Sexy time) Tom & Joe were punching the muffin about you (Talking shit) Punch the muffin bro! (Accompanied by the fist touch, high 5, etc...) Way to punch the muffin dumbass (Drop the ball, screw up, etc) |

| 27. | Wevz | ||
|
Shortened version of whatever that is far superior to whatevz due to it's being a monosyllable, and more confusing to the uninitiated.
Juliet: 'I'm gonna whip you at Wii tennis'
Craig: 'Ha! Wevz to you Juliet' |

| 28. | commie | ||
|
One of those odd terms that, when used by a member of the faction referred to, may well be complementary, but when used by the uninitiated, is an insult. In this case, a term used to refer to communists. Filthy commie propaganda!
Yeah, I'm a commie. |
