Bad

Hack and slash

Basic hack and slash game with bad/laggy controls, instant die pits, enemies that are just "immune" to your powers, and horrible camera angles. If this weren't a Star Wars game, you wouldn't have heard of it. Save your time and just watch the cut-scenes on youtube.

Waste of Time

Not only is this game short, it's infuriating and annoying. The fact that a story even exists behind it is a mystery to me. Besides that you get betrayed a lot and bad stuff happens and now you have to play the same level twice only differently. The quick time events were good, they gave you plenty of warning for the most part. Except they fail to let you know you've initiated one so you fail them about 3 times because the qte's start without warning. Which is rather minor but aggravating. The whole thing plays out like a sort of alternate universe version of luke skywalker. The game is heavy with hints towards said story as if everyone playing the game is incredibly dim witted as to never know what star wars even is. Your abilities with the force are limited and I barely used more than two or three abilities since the other ones were completely useless. Blocking is barely effective, yet somehow you manage to defeat jedi masters and sith lords with the very limited powers you have. Okay so some of the things you get to do on the rare occasion of doing something new is pretty cool and unique I have to admit. The second time you realize that this will happen the same way every time you do it. Every time you kill an AT-AT it's gonna die the same way, get used to it. The designers were lazy and the graphics during game play are fine the cinematics are embarrassing. They could have gotten away with it on the first xbox console not the 360 even when in most opinions people say the 360's graphics aren't that great. You barely have any affect on the game you're just hacking through it like a chess pawn waiting for your next move. So as far as I'm considered lucas arts is doing it for the money not for the quality. This game is bad and they should feel bad. I know I do.

This game was ok there were some features that were nice like the different force powers but the enemies weren't all that creative. Also the game seemed a bit short to me. Worth a quick run through but nothing too exciting
