Clear this up for me. Revan v Malak on the Leviathan.

No, I won't, because it has no basis. Revan - canonically male, and therefore a "he" - was logically very impressive, and obviously Malak's superior, but quite contrary to your assertions everything points to their battle, and the larger one taking place around them, as being epic.

No, everything points to Revan being very tired and still beating Malak. Then Malak gets up again and Revan smacks him down again (and potentially again and again etc).

Even if Revan did immediately drain all the bodies, it would still be immensely impressive to do this whilst holding off a pissed-off Sith Lord and shows Revans absolute superiority.

He wasn't "beaten twice in a row." SW continuity doesn't play out like the video game, Exodus. There's no HP bar; when someone is beaten, they're either maimed, humiliated, unconscious, or dead. Revan's not an idiot, and considering he and Malak were the only two living Force-users who had ever exerted any degree of control over the Star Forge, I highly doubt that he'd be willing to "beat" Malak and then let him empower himself again and prolong the conflict.

Firstly, its only possible to activate the cutscene by beating Malak once. The way I see this happening is with you disarming him or disabling him.
Secondly, Revan had no idea of what Malak was about to do, so he didn't 'let' him do anything.
Thirdly, its very rude to cut your ex-best friends head off in mid-sentence (trust me, I've had a few telling offs about that)
Fourthly, when Malak talks to you, he recognises your clear superiority to him by acknowledging that you are better than you used to be, and D Revan is almost certainly better or on par with D Malak. He might also admit that you beat him, but the memories are faint.

Being really tired? This being based on your assertion that Revan fought through hundreds of droids and Sith, a point that you appear to have dropped in face of the JA comparison.

Besides, when have you seen a powerful Jedi or Sith "tire out" against considerably weaker opponents? Luke literally fought through an army of Yuuzhan Vong, killed seven or eight of their elite slayers, and still managed to kill by far the greatest warrior of their kind. Fatigue wasn't even a factor. Now, Revan's no Skywalker, but the droids and Jedi he faced would not have been nearly as numerous or even as deadly as the hordes of Vong Luke faced.

and still beating Malak. Then Malak gets up again and Revan smacks him down again (and potentially again and again etc.)
Again, this is your take on it, and not how SW continuity plays out. There are no life bars. If Revan had the chance to kill Malak, he would have, end of story.

Even if Revan did immediately drain all the bodies, it would still be immensely impressive to do this whilst holding off a pissed-off Sith Lord and shows Revans absolute superiority.

Fourthly, when Malak talks to you, he recognises your clear superiority to him by acknowledging that you are better than you used to be, and D Revan is almost certainly better or on par with D Malak. He might also admit that you beat him, but the memories are faint.

Who's arguing against Revan's superiority? Stop putting words in my mouth, especially since I already clarified this twice in anticipation of this. If you're not going to read, or if you don't bother acknowledging the fact that your points (read: unsupported, biased conjecture) have already been addressed, then don't reply. It's that simple.

Also, no one said anything about Revan "draining" the bodies; the player has the option of simply destroying the tanks and letting the Jedis' spirits go free.

Firstly, its only possible to activate the cutscene by beating Malak once. The way I see this happening is with you disarming him or disabling him.
Addressed.

Secondly, Revan had no idea of what Malak was about to do, so he didn't 'let' him do anything.
Right. So he disarmed, disabled, or dropped his life bar down to zero, then decided to stand their and watch Malak drain the life out of a fellow Jedi, while not bothering to do anything about it. That makes sense.
Thirdly, its very rude to cut your ex-best friends head off in mid-sentence (trust me, I've had a few telling offs about that)
So your entire argument revolves around gameplay, putting words in my mouth, pretending this is 'Star Wars According to Exodus,' and PIS.

Embarassing. Actually, I don't even see why you're arguing; everyone agrees that Revan was Malak's superior, it's just that you seem to think - without any canon support or logical reasoning - that Revan curbstomped him on the Star Forge, when absolutely nothing backs that conclusion.

Jesus christ Exodus, the Battle was described as "epic". Look that up in the dictionary. Epic=/=Curbstomp.

He shall have to learn to be satisfied with me buying two of his books.

How did The Drew diss you? By making an exelent Star Wars game and two awesome books?
