I was pretty excited to get this game. I thought it would follow in the Lucas Arts standard in high quality Star Wars games. It has been in development for +4 years and there has been a lot of hype and excitement about the game. Loaded it up and wasn't captured by it immediately. The physics engine was neat (splintering trees) and force powers you would expect Vader to have. After playing a few levels I had a good feel for how the game was going however was disappointed in the story. So when I finished the game and replayed it second time for alternate ending I was very jaded with it.

Lucas Arts failed horribly to execute what could have been a promising game. The first disappointment (and biggest) was the story line. It was not very exciting or engaging and I was left feeling I accomplished nothing but watched a third rate rip off stars novel made into game. I also thought the game would be more dynamic, the only part of the story based on your actions was the final ending. Everything else was the same no matter how you played story line wise. I was expecting a lot more to be included about how you behaved and had the story evolve around your dark and light choices.

That aside the game was the most buggy console game I have every played. Both times I played through my objectives got bugged and from about half way through to the end the optional objectives would not track my accomplishments. The optional mission object would appear as Default* or Nil and the force cubes and points would not increment. The research I have done about this shows its fairly common on the X Box and Plantation version of the game. This strikes me as totally unacceptable in a console game where you can not blame a systems configuration.

The other large bug actually affects game play. The engine does a poor job letting players land where it will let them. For example if you land on a plant near a wall your character will appear to be floating unable to move and takes a few seconds of wiggling sticks to break free. This applies to just about any surface near a wall if the surface or wall are slanted. There are also area's where you can get stuck between plants or other objects unable to escape. I even had it have me side down a wall into a pit which was meant to be auto death but did not kill me. Some very interesting clipping errors down there and a game load later was able to move on.

This game is pretty and had promise however it was probably the most disappointing Star Wars game I have ever played. Maybe Lucas Arts has lost their touch?

As a fan of sandbox gameplay, I was a little skeptical of buying this game. After I began playing, however, I realized the graphics and incredible physics engine more than compensate for the linear storyline. The lifelike reactions of the enemies as you sling them across the room with the slightest effort and the fully customizeable, over the top skills make for an epic game that anyone can appreciate, die-hard Star Wars fan or not.

This is a fun game to play. It has very cool ways to use the force(like picking people up and throwing the in the air). It does have some problems, like its sometimes hard to pick up the item you want, and the camera is sometime hard to control. With that said it is a fun game to play with a great plot. this game is worth a look.
