Warship Gunner 2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this game for a few weeks and so far its pretty good. I can do without the animation before and after each mission.
However,the game play is pretty good. I have the first warship gunner and the addition to the submarine is a big plus. It was alot better then i thought it would be. I am going through the game for the second time and the levels and weapons are getting more intense. Bottom line,if you like the first,get this one.

Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I never played the original Star Wars Starfighter so I cannot accurately compare the two games. I do know , however that Jedi Starfighter is a very good looking and fun game.
The graphics are the best thing that JS has going for it. There are over 40 ships from the relam of Star WARs (old and new). Their detail is great, and their flight patterns and movements are awesome. The coolest thing is the trailing afterburners of all the ships. Your ships lasers are very cool and they sound just like the lasers in Star Wars movies. The backgrounds are also very good pieces of artwork.
The story line in JS is set right after Phantom Menace but before the Attack of the Clones. Wlhat I really like about the story is that the writers did not try to make it like the movie, but instead set it in the world of George Lucas during a different time and place. This is smart! Movie plots are hardly ever accurately translated to game plots.
Another cool thing about JS is that you can play two players. There are five different modes for multiplayer, and get this you can play the regulary story based missions as a co-op two player journey awesome.
The story missions are the coolest to me, and you play as two different characters Adi Gallia(Jedi), and Nym who is a land owner fighting the seccessionist in Karthaak.
Like the first Starfighter, the game is not really a Star Wars game other than the flavor and the music.It is not like Rogue Squadron in that sense. But to me the controls and gameplay are better than in Rogue Squadron. You are not bound by a fake ceiling or bottom in mid-air. you have total 360 degree movemant in your planes. The weapons are ample and accrately done and Adi Gallia can perform force attacks from the cockpit.
Add to all of this the ability to unlock trailers and extra vehicles for multiplayer mode, and you have a very good game. I reccomend it to all Star Wars fans and to anyone who likes aerial shooters.
Graphics: 9
Storyline: 8
Control:8
Sound:9
fun factor: 9
replay value: 10
Overall score: 8.8 VERY GOOD

The galaxy is in turmoil as the events of Star Wars: Episode II rapidly approach. Mace Windu dispatches one of the Council's top Jedi, Adi Gallia, to investigate disturbances in the Karthakk system caused by a secessionist movement that threatens to expand. Using the Republic's new prototype Jedi starfighter, Gallia sets out on missions that lead to events depicted in the Star Wars: Episode II film. She quickly gains an upper hand in space battles using her Force powers, but will these be enough to counter the massive fleet of the evil Captain Toth and a mysterious figure that threatens the very foundations of the Galactic Republic system?
You'll fly the new Jedi starfighter and get a look at characters and events from the film. The game contains single- and dual-player action in more than 20 story-based missions. Fly all missions cooperatively with a friend or in single-player mode in a variety of spacecraft. Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter features more than 40 new craft, including massive capital ships, three new flyable fighters, new enemy craft, and more.

Lego Star Wars Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Now, a lot of gamers wont pick up this game because they believe it to be too kiddy or childish. Granted, it is geared towards children somewhat, and isn't overtly difficult or mature. However, this is a really entertaining game with a lot to do.
You play through key points in Star Wars episodes I through III, so you get to play some of the third installment before it's even out in theatres (if you get the game before then, that is). The translation between the films to the game (LEGO style) is spot on, and you'll remember and enjoy playing through all the key events.
There's a lot of variety in this game. TONS, and I mean TONS, of extras, unlockables, characters, and different styles of play in different levels. There's even podracing! Each level just feels right and is fun to play. As you gain and unlock characters you can go back to a level and get items you couldn't reach before, because of the new character's abilities. Not only that, but there's a Free Play mode where you can just scour the level for currency and the like, or just to enjoy it again at your leisure.
Also, there's an extremely awesome co-op mode. At any time another player can jump in and start playing right along with you, either as one of the characters in the current story (in Story mode) or just about anyone in Free Play mode. This really adds to the fun factor and never gets old. I love that they included this.
Visual presentation is stellar. Everything is authentic Star Wars, yet authentic LEGO. It's really cool how well they did everything. On a technical standpoint, the game definitely isn't bleeding-edge or anything, but it isn't trying to be, and it looks really great anyway. There are some nice effects (lightsabers, explosions, floor reflections) too. Audio is PERFECT Star Wars.
All in all, this is a surprisingly fun game. With all the unlockables the replay value of this game is outstanding, and everything is a breeze to play. Not overtly kiddy, simplistic, or easy, people of all ages and tastes (even if you don't like LEGO or Star Wars) will get enjoyment out of this game. Don't be put out by its demeanor: you'll have a great time with this.
I definitely recommend LEGO Star Wars as a buy for the PS2 or Xbox. The PC version has kind of clunky controls, and the co-op isn't as good. I haven't played the GBA version. The < $40 price tag is nice as well.
Go get LEGO Star Wars!

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Okay, so I have to agree with the other review here that the game is kind of lacking in that god-like power we kind of figured we'd be able to experience from the intro (I wanted to sink a star destroyer and not from just a cut-scene. Still, you get to knock around some TIE fighters). The Force Unleashed is still a pretty cool game, however.
I'm a big fan of "Jedi Academy", so I was expecting it to play a bit more like that (it really felt like you had more choices in Jedi Academy). This game is VERY linear, and you won't get a chance to just go explore any planet you feel like (I was kind of hoping a guy could get to hang out in the Star Wars universe a little) and it seems EVERY bad guy has a shield up. Even in Jedi Academy you could take down a storm trooper with a little light-saber action. In this game, you kind of have to hack at 'em a bit.
I'm still pretty addicted to this game. The ability to customize so many different force powers is awesome, as is finding different color crystals/hilts for your light saber and costume changes. I beat the game as a sith (didn't really mean to, I guess I headed too close to Darth Vader and the game seemed to think I wanted that ending) with left kind of a massive hole in the plot of any of the Star Wars films. It does let you continue back to the beginning with all of your powers (which is pretty darn cool), but I have to admit I was kind of hoping for something a bit more from this game. It had so much potential!
I guess if I could offer a little advice for the next one, it would be nice to have a few more choices on the fate of the character and if this guy is supposed to be a massively-powerful sith, why is everybody else tougher to kill?
If I could offer any tips to other players, ramping up your lightning skills really helps wipe out hordes of Storm Troopers (and others you encounter)!
