User Comments about the Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy

I can't describe how embarrassingly clumsy this part of the game is. My ship got caught inside of a solid piece of mountain. Glitch-wise this game is not bad, but I've had it freeze on me on 4-5 occasions in a single week. You'd think having extra characters and even Jedi would be an advantage, however most character merely look different, but control and behave the same.


It's as if the game was not even tested. That's it. Serious gamers should not even rent this. Essentially you can jump, shoot (or hack with lightsaber) and use the action button. For pre-teens it's a great game. The worst part of the controls is in the ship levels. In fact with the co-op mode it can even be addictive. Aside from that you'll be spending most of your time collecting lego coins.


Apparently because of the low budget of the game, there were no voice actors hired or maybe they just didn't want any dialogue. There is the option of completing the levels in story mode or free play. I'd say it's hard to make Legos look realistic, but the reflections are somewhat elementary. In story mode you are stuck with the preset characters, whereas free play gives you the ability to use any characters you've unlocked or bought. Is the game worth playing.


Many times you want to flip, you actually turn and vice versa. Yes, at least to try out and because it's so cheap. Here you can shoot, flip and turn. You can't change the view and it nearly ruins the whole game seriously. Once you've played through the whole game one time you'll want to go back and find the minikits, get all the coins and the extras.


Lego Star Wars II is unfortunately good game unfulfilled. A few of the extras such as invincibility and the minikit finder are very helpful. Another glitch occurred of course at the end of a level in which I'd spent a half hour gathering all the coins. The game contains all three of the original Star Wars saga, each with six chapters or levels. It will annoy you (like me) to no end. This aspect adds another level of lameness to an already mediocre game.The camera is trash. The gameplay can be fun in small doses and for less hardcore gamers.


I've been playing games since 1990 and I haven't seen controls this clumsy before. Now for the really bad parts: the controls, lack of dialogue, the camera and the glitches. You can move maybe 30 degrees to the left and right, up and down of the characters. People move quite slow. Graphics look ok. The developers managed to turn 3-D battles, such as Hoth or the Death Star into a 2-D joke of a gameplay experience. Anybody over 12 will be sorely disappointed in the monotonous, clumsy gameplay.



There are 3 things most gamers universally like: cooperative play modes, star wars, and Legos. This game delivers on all 3.It is especially fun to play with non-gamer types (children, significant others, etc) as there is relatively no punishment for dying.The cutscenes add a humorous flair to a story everybody already knows, and the clever level design will have you replaying this game over and over.



My 7 year old boy loves this game. It does have some areas that are tricky but he absolutely loves this game.



Indiana Jones Lego is so much more superior that I can't even put the two games on the same level. I'll keep this review short.I don't like this game. It's just plain awkward. Overall this game just felt rushed, and I was shocked that so many game reviewers gave it good marks. It feels very clunky, and the level design(for all three movies) isn't good. It's the equal of cutting a steak with a butter knife. Example: On the Return of the Jedi level 1.


Especially since they keep constantly popping out and attacking. Well, it's more like blocking with your lightsaber until their attacks are done, and then hitting them 3, or 4 times to stop them. You can use Luke Skywalker, and slice through Gimmorian guards with your lightsaber. This gets old realy, really fast. I'm hoping the Batman Lego game is done well like Indiana Jones was.


This game is great.i'm having a lot of fun, and after all the shooting and killing with CoD4, this is very relaxing.
