(More customer reviews)First, let me state for the record that I'm a die hard Star Wars fan.
I've been collecting books, games, movies, memorobillia, and props related to the Star Wars license for the last 13 years or so.
In that time, I've seen some good Star Wars products, and I've seen some bad Star Wars products.
I'm sorry to say that this "game" may rank as the worst I've seen yet.
I've tried liking this game. I really have. All that it's managed to do so far is raise my blood pressure.
The controls are sluggish, the plot is incoherent, the voice acting is terrible (and sometimes voices overlap each other...poor timing?) and the frustration factor is enormous.
What's even more galling is that I think the story concept for the game is good. The idea of a rebel-alligned merc and her sidekick droid taking on the empire is an intriguing one.
Unfortunately, you don't get the joy of exploration, because almost ever level amounts to being on rails...it's very, very linear. (Kill all bad guys in this room, and now you can open THIS door). The camera is so buggy and difficult to control that you'll kill yourself as often as the enemies do...and this lack of good camera control often means that you'll have difficulty completing some puzzle-oriented objectives, because you have to stand in EXACTLY the right spot, looking in EXACTLY the right direction, to be able to hit the magic button that allows you to trigger a response you need...all while trying to avoid enemy fire and prevent your own character from auto-locking on other targets.
I can't help but feel that this game might have been a lot of fun if it had been an RPG instead of an action title...but it could've been a lot of fun as an actioner if the controls had been appropriately responsive.
As it stands, I'd have to advise anybody to spend your money elsewhere.
