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 ???

... THAT'S NO MOON !!! The Lego Star Wars Collector Series Death Star is an amazing set ... not only does it look fantastic but it provides endless opportunities for recreating your favourite scenes from the Original Star Wars Trilogy (Episodes 4 to 6). You can rescue Princess Leia, disable the Death Star's Tractor Beam, escape from the Trash Compactor and explore the Control Room. You can even recreate the final duel between Luke and Darth Vader in the Emperor's Throne Room. The set is massive ... and sits on an impressive rotating base. The Death Star itself is packed with rooms, zones and hidden features ... including it's very own hangar bay with mini Tie Fighter !!! This set also contains an impressive 24 Lego mini figures INCLUDING Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, C-3PO, R2-D2, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, Luke...

Review of Lego Star Wars Collector Series: Death Star 10188

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...

Stars wars

Advantages: New story between Episodes III and IV
Disadvantages: Lacking mutiplayer

...I can't say its my favorite star wars game but it is the best to look at Good points: #Brillant graphics #Massivse power latter in the game really matter you fell godlike #None stop action you kill one you have four more to go through #Amazing effects #Cool flashy powers #Huge enemies #Hours of gaming #Best parts bending doors and sending men flying The story line about dark vaders apprentice.

Bad points: #No online play #Only single player #Small enough maps #You can't destory much #You can run passed most of the enemies There is a lot of different enemies and loads to attacks to hit them with. Once you finish this game sadly theirs nothing to do but sell it. I myself couldn't bring myself to finish the game a second time on the hardest diffculty. Brillat story...

Star Wars: The Waggle Unleashed

Advantages: Great story, controls may appeal to some
Disadvantages: Dated graphics, repetitive, cheats which can't be turned off, not much replay value

...around the story of Darth Vader's secret apprentice. You're tasked with destroying surviving Jedi for the first part of the game and the second part, well, I won't ruin it for you. It has been said that the story of this game is better than the Star Wars prequels and it shows. The story is the best part of the game, despite the whole new array of unfamiliar characters. The gameplay is average, put bluntly. As you waggle the wiimote to swing your saber you can push forward the nunchuck to force push and..... in terms of motion control that's it. You press c to strike lightining, press another button to jump and hold down Z to grab objects. There is some motion control in terms of throwing objects but because you're always under fire, you won't be using this aspect often. The gameplay is fun, for about an hour. In fact I got bored with it by...

Review of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Wii)

A mediocre Star Wars game at best

Advantages: Good representation of the tv series, kids will find some enjoyment in it
Disadvantages: Repetitive gameplay, loose controls, generally very rough around the edges

...There is no possible way that anybody reading this review has not at least heard of Star Wars. If you haven?t seen any of the six movies, then fair enough. I can comprehend that. But if you try to claim that you don?t even recognise the name, then I simply don?t believe you. Because Star Wars is one of, if not the, biggest movie franchise of all time. It is global phenomenon really, spawning not only the aforementioned six movies, but also swaths of memorabilia, books, toys, computer games and so on. The Star Wars war machine spans decades, and has millions of (sometimes worryingly devoted) fans. In short, the Star Wars name carries great power in the consumer world, allowing even the most mediocre products to sell in droves just because they have some relevance to lightsabers or the Force. For those who aren?t aware, one of the latest...

Review of Star Wars - The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes (PS3)

An original, quirky and laugh a minute Star Wars parody !

Advantages: Original, entertaining and funny (at times it's "laugh out loud" funny too) !!!
Disadvantages: Way too short ... the extras on this DVD are actually longer than the main feature !!!

... Background Information "Robot Chicken - Star Wars" is a one-off special episode of the popular Robot Chicken Series which was originally aired on Cartoon Network during the Adult Swim season (in 2007) The episode was directed by Seth Green and features 22 minutes of original sketches related to the Star Wars Saga. It was released on DVD in July 2008. Robot Chicken - Star Wars "Robot Chicken - Star Wars" is simply "COMEDY GENIUS" !!! Seth Green and the creative team behind this DVD have carefully selected all of the best characters, storylines and moments from the Star Wars movies and added a touch of Robot Chicken style originality and have mixed in a dash of satire, a dollop of parody and a few sprigs of pure insanity !!! The result of which is simple ... a feast of fan fuelled fun that any fan of the Force...

Review of Robot Chicken - Star Wars (DVD)

Wii Star Wars - More addictive than the dark side...

Advantages: Superb game, lovely to play, great longevity
Disadvantages: My son not collecting our hard earned studs!

...Overview I was ?made? to play on the Wii last night with my son, who had got stuck with ?what to do next?? he went to bed at 8, and I finished playing around midnight!!! I?m not a big game player, but this is a really fun game to play, and despite my protestations about being too busy, cooking tea etc., I loved playing it. The Game You can either play this on your own, or as we did last night play two players working together, which is great with ?smallish? children. You initially start off in the ?Cantina? with a number of doors to go through, which eventually (after completion of the intro/training level) allows you to access each of the six Star wars episodes. Each episode then has 6 levels to be completed firstly in story mode, after which you can play in free mode, or replay to beat your score. All...

Review of LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga (Wii)

Lego Star Wars: ULTIMATE Collector's Millennium Falcon [10179]

Advantages: The size, scale and sheer attention to detail is simply "outstanding".
Disadvantages: The price ... at around £350 it's possibly the most expensive Star Wars Lego Set out there !!!

... INTRODUCTION The largest and possibly most amazing LEGO Star Wars set EVER has arrived !!! That's right, the largest LEGO Star Wars Set ever ... and with over 5000 pieces and an instruction manual that makes an Argos Catalogue look like a "quick read" the Ultimate Collector's Millennium Falcon is simply "AWESOME" !!! BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Millennium Falcon has become the stuff of legend and is one of the most well known spaceships in movie history. Which is kind of strange when you think that the modified Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1300 freighter was first described as being "junk" by Luke Skywalker !!! Infact Han Solo's infamous spaceship may have been the fastest ship in the Galaxy but it wasn't exactly the most reliable either (can you remember how many times it broke down in the movies...

Star Wars Lego - Perfect

Advantages: It's Lego and it's Star Wars! Great Price
Disadvantages: Zilch

...---Introduction--- I have been bought up on Lego from the age of three of four. I have always retained my love of Lego and over the years, I have compiled a large amount of different Lego. I have had everything from towns to spaceships and trains to Star Wars Lego. I always wanted to be a Lego designer from a young age, as I used to build my own models from pieces of Lego from different sets. In the last few years, I have bought a lot of Star Wars Lego, because it is Lego and I absolutely love Star Wars. I have every Lego Technic model available in the Star Wars theme and many others. In this review, I will talk about the AT-AT walker, that can be seen in the original Star Wars films, on the snow planet of Hoth. ---About the AT-AT--- The AT-AT walker, or the All Terrain Armored Transport, is a four-legged fighting vehicle...
