Knights of the Old Republic.

Advantages: Great Story, Strong Gameplay, Good Graphics, Lightsabers
Disadvantages: Occasional Glitches, Slightly repetative in middle section.

...structured and the twist in it is amazing, there is lots to do here, with the main plot taking 10-15 hours and at least the same again in extra side missions. As well as this there are sub games such as a combat Arena, Swoop Racing and Pazak (a card game akin to blackjack). All of this is optional, but I found myself doing all of it. The atmosphere is excellent and constant little reminders mean you do feel that you are part of the star wars universe. Graphics are excellent and will run well on a modest PC. The sound is awsome with fantastic music as well as all of your favorite sound effects. Pressing X flourishes your weapon and if you have a lightsaber you will bo doing it often to here that satisfying sound. Combat works well, and the ability to pause the game at any point and issue actions means you are rarely overwhelemed. Having...

STAR WARS LEGO DEATH STAR

Advantages: Impressive to look at ... it has the "wow" factor ! Lots of possibilities & packed with features.
Disadvantages: The price ... maybe this is something for serious collectors rather than kids ???

...Skywalker (Jedi Knight), Darth Vader, Grand Moff Tarkin, Emperor Palpatine, 2 Stormtroopers, 2 Emperor's Royal Guards, R2-Q5, and a mouse droid !!! There are also 6 new and exclusive mini figures only found in this set: Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper outfit) Han Solo (Stormtrooper outfit) Assassin Droid Interrogation Droid Death Star Droid Death Star Trooper This is a must have set for all Star Wars fans ... costly YES but the fact that it has so many play and display possibilites (plus the large number of mini figs) makes this good value for money (when compared to some of the other larger Star Wars Lego sets). Also unlike many of the Star Wars Lego Vehiclws this set is actually well designed for displaying ... a sturdy base allows you to rotate the entire Death Star to reveal all the areas and details. It looks amazing, it is...

Knights Of The Old Republic - Jedi Vs Sith Again?

Advantages: Excellent Story, Vivid Graphics, Light Side Or Dark Side Options
Disadvantages: Click & Play May Not Suit All Players

...Unlike many Star Wars games, where the action is based in the era of Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, or Darth Maul and Obi-Wan, Knights of the Old Republic is based 4000 years earlier. This is a refreshing new perspective on the Star Wars scene, in a time when the Sith marched around in shiny, metallic suits of armour and people used swords and staffs. Knights Of The Old Republic follows your character, whom you can customise with a variety of options, such as face, skills, feats, etc. Those who have played Neverwinter Nights will find this very very familiar, but new players may find it a bit confusing at first. A good read of the manual will do wonders however and soon you'll be in the game levelling up like you've been playing it all your life. You pick your class and you're immediately thrown into the action, on a transport...

Knights Of The Old Republic 2

Advantages: Good story plenty of options
Disadvantages: Predictable at points

...Story The game is set over 4000 years before the films, although most of the aliens can be recognised from the films, you take on the role of a what seems to be an ordinary Republican soldier during a war between the Republic and the Sith, the imperials. The game starts of with you waking up on a Republic ship with no memory of who you are or why you are here, and the story starts from here. You have to fight your way of the ship slowly piecing together your memory whilst completing missions and objectives and assisting your friends. The game takes you to many of the worlds that have previously been seen in the Star Wars universe and some new ones. Game play You play in the third person perspective, and although you have your main character as you go along you meet new characters who join your party each one having...

Lego Deconstruct the Star Wars Saga

Advantages: A great take on Star Wars. Easy to pick up and play. The price!
Disadvantages: Mini-games can get a bit repetitive. Not much else worth complaining about at the price.

...INTRODUCTION I was searching for stocking fillers on Amazon a few weeks ago when I stumbled across Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga for what seemed like an astonishing bargain at £9.99. I am usually quite circumspect in buying games, often checking a fair few professional and consumer reviews before investing my hard-earned, but given the price and my very positive experience with the original Lego Indiana Jones equivalent for the Wii, I decided to forego the usual due diligence and bought it as a present - for myself. BASIC PREMISE For those not familiar with the burgeoning Lego games franchise (Batman, Indiana Jones, Star Wars are soon to be joined by Harry Potter), the basics of the game are quite simple. You usually play through the story-line from each of these films as one of any number and variety of Lego...

Star Wars 3 and a Half

Advantages: Story. All the force powers
Disadvantages: It's too easy

...Currently I only have a Wii, I'm not a big video-game playing person but being a bit of a Star Wars fan I thought the idea of swinging your Wii remote about like a light sabre and throwing people about with the force was too good to resist. The Game Story When this film starts off if you're a Star Wars fan it's sheer bliss. At first you get the usual crawl of text summing up what's going on in the galaxy. You then step off a ship as Darth Vader! Your imperial troops are having problems. "Leave it to me" says Vader as he's about to embark on some ass-kicking. The best way to enjoy this mission is to just walk very slowly around as if nothing is really bothering you and casually slice and knock the wookies about. Being the first level it doubles up as a tutorial of sorts and you're constantly getting messages on your screen...

Disadvantages: Not many...

...LEGO Star Wars is a term that will mean nothing to you if you don't know what LEGO is, or what Star Wars is. (If not, what planet have you been on for the past few decades?) Ah well I suppose there must be some people about who don't know, so here's the explanation: LEGO is a set of children's building toys, ranging from simple click-together blocks to bits that make up complex models, and characters complete with accessories. Star Wars is a series of films (and books, and toys, and animated series, and other things comprising one of the largest merchandising operations in the world). Basically Star Wars is a retelling of the classic "good versus evil" story we've seen a million times before in a futuristic galactic setting. It features Jedi Knights, who use a power called "The Force" to do all sorts of neat tricks and help...

Star Wars Minis

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

..., the characters will never be in the same place and the objects tey want to trade will be different. The problem is that a little bit more snow square, as opposed to rock square on your map and the shuffling of characters doesn't really make for a different game. The items are the same, the puzzles do not change much, the conversations are the same..all that changes is the map which you end up navigating around... ...the poorly drawn map, which your poorly drawn character navigates around poorly. The graphics are all very retro looking. I suppose you could call them cutesy, but they just look...'old' to me which might be ok for a shareware game but not really for something coming from a company like Lucas Arts. Sound effects too are criminally bad. Where is the theme tune to Star Wars and what the hell are all these bleeps and bloops? Better no...
