THE GOOD:

Lots of combos

Multiplayer

Good amount of unlockables

THE BAD:

Graphics are nothing special

Combat at times can be quite slugish

Little replay value

SUMMARY:
Star Wars games have never really been as good as they deserve to be. The films are great and they warrant decent games to be made from them, and after Lego Star Wars fairing pretty well Star Wars Revenge Of The Sith does okay.

First off is Single Player mode, where you journey through the film with Anakin and Obi Wan. There are 17 levels all of which will be recognised by those that have watched the film as there are clips from the film in each level as well as cutscenes during gameplay explaining the situation you are in ect. The combat in the game is sluggish. Despite there being a lot of combos to be unlocked and used I found myself nearly always either using the same combos over and over again or...

THE GOOD:
Features environments and characters from the movie. Actual movie footage is included. Some nice 2-player options. You can play as Yoda!

THE BAD:
Spoils the film if you haven't seen it. Only covers Episode 3. Slight control problems.

SUMMARY:
Based on the final Star Wars film, this game gives you the chance to play as one of several characters, including giving you the opportunity to take Anakin down the path to the Dark Side or stand as Obi-Wan Kenobi and oppose your former Jedi apprentice. Along the way you'll face enemies from the film like General Grievous and Count Dooku, all leading up to the climactic student-teacher showdown.
The graphics look like they came right from the movie-cutscenes feature actual movie footage which seamlessly changes over into video game cutscenes, and the backgrounds look like you're in the film. Characters look movie-perfect as well. Sound is another strong area, as...

THE GOOD:
The lightsaber moves that are available are so cool to use.

Using the force is a blast

Being able to have fun controlling a Jedi in a Star Wars game

LIGHTSABERS!!! YOU CAN USE THEM!!!

THE BAD:
I wanna punch the person that came up with the shittiest camera angle possible for a game like this.

Also, graphics aren't quite up to the standards of most other games out there.

Too short

Did i mention the camera?

SUMMARY:
Overall this is not a bad game, and honestly I only really bought it because I wanted to see clips of the film two weeks before it came out in cinemas.

You should only really rent this game because it is easily completable well inside two hours, if not less.

The camera angle is a huge drawback and graphics are below average for Xbox games.

However it is so satisfyingly fun you can't help but replay your favourite missions and bosses...

THE GOOD:
The great part of this game is the fact that you are able to control many lightsaber moves, and you get to control both Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan kenobi, which gives you two views of the movie.

THE BAD:
You have to extremely good with your controller if you want to get past some of the tougher bosses. Also, the game is really short, and can be finished during a rainy sunday.

SUMMARY:
Lot of good action sequences and force movements. This game is hard if you have no clue how to use the force. After a few levels, the droids can get extremely annoying, and are not fun to kill anymore. It is also very hard to get a rating of "impressive" or "masterful", even if you do not get hurt in a battle. The graphics are very good and there are some great cutscenes from the movie. If you are a casual gamer, watch the movie, then play the game. It makes the game way more exciting.

THE GOOD:
-Great lightsaber action and fun duels
-Easy controls
-Control a Jedi on each side of the force eventually
-Easy to earn and distribute experience

THE BAD:
-Bad camera angles
-Too short
-A little too easy, even on Hard difficulty

SUMMARY:
Overall, it's a great game. The music will please Star Wars fans, the whole game is based on fighting things with your lightsaber, you play as Anakin and Obi-Wan, thereby controlling both sides of the force and you fight real characters from the movies.
The voice acting is superb, with all the voices coming from the actors and actresses of the Cartoon Network TV mini-series Clone Wars.
It looks good, even when the action starts to heat up. The duels are frequent and fun, with around 7 of the 17 Chapters being duel chapters.
When you're not dueling, you're fighting droids or troopers, using your force powers and lightsaber to take them out with...

THE GOOD:
-Most realistic lightsaber fighting in any Star Wars game
-Plenty of playable Star Wars characters
-Unique experience with each character
-Well-balanced force powers
-Fun multiplayer
-Yoda. 'nough said

THE BAD:
-Limited gameplay
-Not many co-op missions
-No Yoda in duel mode
-Little replay value and unlockables

SUMMARY:
The lightsaber battles in Revenge of the Sith are awesome. After you get past the rather steep learning curve, you'll realize that this is the closest thing you'll get to the fighting in the movies.

It's a blast slicing your way through hordes of battle droids using a purely offensive barrage of attacks. The battles droids break apart realistically, falling to pieces depending on how and where your lightsaber has struck them.

But where the fighting system really shines is in the lightsaber-on-lightsaber battles. You're forced to play defense against...

THE GOOD:
well its star wars... and the fact that you can use the most amazing combos with a lightsabre since jedi power battles. plus not only is there a co-op multiplayer but also a duel mode... this is great to help prove to your friends that you're the best jedi master among your friends

THE BAD:
the graphics are on some of the droids a little off... and sometimes the levels can get hard... but thats more challenging really... ignore this

SUMMARY:
yeah so... this is the best star wars game in my collection to date, and trust me i have a fair few... you've just gotta love the bosses and the bonus missions are a nice touch... oh and the sith lightning is a sight to behold... you can see your opponents bones... which to me is amazginly cool

actually i cant say any more really so im off to play some more
