This game is great fun. My favourite chapter is 5 where you get to kill Darth Vader in free play in Episode IV.
When me and my friend started chapter 5 in Episode VI we were really excited because you get to kill the Emperor.

This game is pure genius, so much fun and the drop-in drop-out two player mode really works. See your kid struggling with a level, jump in and help him/her blast a few stormtroopers then go back to your gardening...
It has humour, lots of "I remember that bit from the film" moments (the proper Star War films, that is!) and lots of replay value - trying to get the elusive mini-kits, red bricks and earn money for the extra characters.
Whoever came up with Lego and Star Wars as a concept for a video game must have been on something, but I'm glad he was!
My top tips for this game are:
1) Save your money until you have completed Story mode, you can then spend it wisely in Freeplay mode. Most of the characters you'll need (Luke, Darth, Boba Fett) become available for nowt once you've defeated them
2) Keep an eye out for the red bricks, once found they give you the extras to buy e.g invincibility, super lasers etc
3) Boba Fett is the main man, especially with bounty hunter rockets enabled. He flies like R2D2 but packs a punch too
4) Once you've purchased an extra, it isn't enabled by default (took me a while to sus this !). Once in the game, press Start, then Extras to toggle them on and off
5) Ghost characters are expensive (the enemy cannot see you so won't shoot you !) but invincibility is better value (900,000 studs) to start with
6) Don't waste time struggling to get that high-up mini-kit in story mode. Most of them aren't attainable until you do it in Freeplay with a Jedi or Bounty Hunter
Note - I've reviewed the user guide on here also
Go on, Force yourself (sorry!)

I love Star Wars games, and this is no exception!
o.k. not going to strain the brain cells, but gaming is about fun too, and this IS fun!
Usual characters, nothing new or world shattering, just a great game for all age groups. |
