Lego Star Wars

THE GOOD:
Extremely unique concept. Simple, fun gameplay. Lots of unlockable content. Very high level of interactivity. You can play through Episodes 1, 2, and 3.

THE BAD:
Slightly sluggish controls. Very short. Low difficulty level. Only covers the prequel trilogy.

SUMMARY:
One of the newest Star Wars games to hit consoles, Lego Star Wars takes a totally different take on the Star Wars prequel trilogy...not because you get to play as characters from the films, but you play in a world where virtually everything is made of Legos.

The graphics are simple but clean. Since everything looks like it is made entirely of Lego blocks, the characters & environments don't show a high level of detail, but it's good enough to look like a good representation of the Lego product. The frame rate is smooth but does suffer some slowdown when a lot of characters are together on screen at the same time. Sounds are solid but limited primarily to music from...

THE GOOD:
- Simple gameplay
- Anyone can play including Mom and Dad
- Co-Op is the most fun to be had
- Covers episodes I, II and III

THE BAD:
- A few minor glitches
- Gameplay may not hold enough depth for some people
- If you hate Lego and/or Star Wars don't get this game

SUMMARY:
My first reveiw, here we go;

Lego Star Wars: The Video Game, is a fun and addictive game that puts you in the shoes of 1 of 30+ people in the Star Wars universe. That said the game is easy to pick up and understand but hard to master (by master I mean getting 100%), the invincibility cheat is 1,000,000 lego studs (the curency in the game.)

You start the game in Dexter's Diner, and from there you can buy cheats or "extras" as they are called in this game, or jump straight into the action by going into the door with an "I" over it (the I being the Star Wars Episode 1 door) and walk into the first door inside this room, again with an "I"....
