THE GOOD:
Excellent graphics and fast gameplay. Movie-quality sounds & music. Craft & locales taken from the Star Wars universe.

Controls could be a little more responsive. Objectives not explained in the best detail possible.

As is typical with Star Wars titles, the storyline is pulled right from the movies, which always makes for an excellent setting. The graphics help the cause, with excellent renditions of craft from the movies showing plenty of detail, and the action moves at a smooth, fast pace. Sometimes there's just a hint of slowdown but not enough to be a deterrent. The sounds & music are taken right...
