"Run, Jedi, run. You have only prolonged the inevitable!" ―General Grievous, after the battle ended.[src] Grievous, when Grievous was great.
Grievous used to be so awesome. Now he can't even kill a lone teenaged padawan.

He is getting older and more arrogant. In addition, his techniques are not changing to meet the challenges of his new opponents.

He's younger in TCW now than he was when he was being so awesome in the old series.

I thought in the animated series, he was fighting while Anakin was still a Padawan and not a master or am I wrong on this?

He was in TCW Volume 2, which takes place in the days leading directly up to ROTS (most of his action actually comes during the abduction of Palps).

I guess I messed that up, this is nasty. What's nasty?
"How much further is dis thing? My drapes are startin' ta stick ta my thighs!" ―Dengar, during the hunt for the Yavin Vassilika[src] ==================== Here is today's quote, The Sith are Br00t41!  "YOU ARE A ROCKIN' FULL ON SITH PURE BLOOD (best race) You mostly just cruise around the galaxy messing people up. It's pretty kickin' rad. Plus, you're all red. So, like, if some dude does manage to cut you, which is highly unlikely due to your amazing combat prowess, they wouldn't even be able to tell you were bleeding. So, it's like, a morale thing, where they get all discouraged. Basically, you're totally metal, dude. Plus, your dad owns a dealership, so you're kind of a big deal." ―Prototype Star Wars: The Old Republic Codex entry for the playable Sith species[src]

Completely sounds like a joke, or overly arrogant.

This is an interesting outlook about the dark side.
Vergere: "Light and dark are no more than nomenclature: words that describe how little we understand. What you call the dark side is the raw, unrestrained Force itself: you call the dark side what you find when you give yourself over wholly to the Force. To be a Jedi is to control your passion…but Jedi control limits your power. Greatness—true greatness of any kind—requires the surrender of control. Passion that is guided, not walled away. Leave your limits behind." Jacen: "But—but the dark side—" Vergere: "If your surrender leads to slaughter, that is not because the Force has darkness in it. It is because you do." Jacen: "Me? No—no, you don't understand—the dark side is, it's, it's, don't you see it? It's the dark side. The dark side…" Vergere: "The only dark side you need fear, Jacen Solo, is the one in your own heart." ―Jacen Solo and Vergere[src]

That's an interesting idea, but I have two arguments against its validity: 1) Giving yourself over wholly to the Force does not necessarily involve the Dark Side. Oneness is achieved by giving yourself entirely to the will of the Force. 2) The Fanged God - the Dark Side incarnate - was inherently selfish and cruel. Those are features of the Dark Side, not just of the individual.

These are true. I think the above quote was more of a perverted justification of using the Dark Side by Vergere, who once was a Jedi and later was a Sith. And using that justification to attempt to win over Jacen who more than likely had his doubts having been raised with the family that he had.

I glad that fool got thrown down a reactor shaft...
Palpatine: "I think I begin to understand the reasons for your secrecy. The Jedi are attempting to expose Sidious." Yoda: "In pursuit of clues, we are." Palpatine: "Might the capture of Sidious end the war?" Mace: "Hasten the end." Palpatine: "Then I trust that you will accept my apologies. Do whatever you must to hunt Sidious down." ―Yoda and Mace Windu, sharing their suspicions about Darth Sidious with Supreme Chancellor Palpatine[src]

1) True, but it can. 2) Inherently? Are you sure? And also: tarwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Vectivus
