This game is, without a doubt, one of the easiest and fun games I have played in a long time. There is almost no challenge, but I had a great time. For example: suprising stormtroopers in the bath, 'movie' clips that are close to the movies but add humor (Luke cutting off C-3Po's head the first time he tries his father's lightsaber), etc.

10,000 kinds of cute!

Having grown up a Star Wars fan, as well as a lego fan, it's not hard to be interested in a combination of the two.
This game is nearly an overload of cute, and so much fun. It's clean, so I enjoy playing it with my kids, and watching them solve the puzzles and secrets.
There is so much hilariousness in it too, with the silly moments, and expressions of the characters.
I have never had so much fun playing a game.

great fun

i like this game, and I like the features of the game. it can be a bit frustrating at times trying to find out were your supposed to go but once you get their... its great. the 2 player feature is awsome being able to come into the game and leave the game at anytime... I wonder why other games havent thought of this before, it would make the experince that much better

Not just for kids!

I got this game for Christmas and as a big fan of the first Lego Star Wars game, immediately got into it. At first, gameplay may seem to be aimed at a younger audience, but the item collecting and hidden secrets make this game enjoyable to even the most hardcore gamer. Even as a very experienced game-player, I've only just now gained 100% completion of the game and have spent over 40 hours playing. An extremely fun game for anyone with an open mind to pulling off Storm Trooper arms with a tiny cubical Chewbacca.

Perfect Game for Star Wars Fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, great game for Star War fans!.. up to 2 people simultaneusly in a movie type adventure. For people that enjoy adventures games & muti world playing scenes. Just like the movie, you have to pass on all various worlds and can unlock & play with many different characters including chwaca, C3PO & R2!.. This game is also perfect for kids, they will have to unscramble situations and do cooperative work to solves issues. 100% recomended.

This game is great for all ages. I found it to be lots of fun to change up your character, control all of the characters from the movies, and navigate through well designed levels of star destroyers, planets, and building interiors. Good clean fun for all ages and anyone can get into playing it because game play is so great and the story is brilliant.

A Must Have!

A simple fun game that follows the movies fairly closely. Nice clean graphics and simple controls make for a good fun experience. Lots of extras for those that wish to put in the extra time, however by the time you finish the game the monotonous simple game-play will probably have lost your interest. Still a pretty cOoL game.

Excellent... If XBox Live is not a biggie...

This game has a lot of replay value. I have been playing the game every night for the past 4 weeks, and while I am still not completely through the game, I still have reason to play.

The one thing I was disappointed with is the lack of Online capabilities. I was under the impression I would be able to at least play CO-Op with a friend online, but there is absolutely no XBox Live functionality to the game.

Lots of fun extras don't quite make up for mediocre gameplay

I think the LEGO Star Wars games are a great concept, and a great way to make yet another series of games based on the Star Wars movies and tell the same story for the millionth time without seeming too repetitive. This game injects some humor into the Star Wars saga, and it's quite enjoyable to see classic scenes from the movies acted out with LEGOs. This game features tons of extras as well--unlockable characters and ships, special items, gold bricks which are used to access even more content--all kinds of stuff that adds flavor to the game and gives you a reason to come back for more after you've played the game through.

The problem, however, is that even if all the extras add replay value to this game the gameplay itself gets pretty old quickly. It's fun to run around as a LEGO version of Han Solo or Ben Kenobi and shoot little LEGO Stormtroopers for a short while, but it soon wears thin. The puzzles in the game aren't that impressive either--they don't take much to solve and often don't add much to the experience. There isn't much challenge--just shoot wildly at stuff and if you die you'll immediately come back (though you will lose some of the little studs the game uses as currency).

The control is lacking as well. The camera view ranges from being tolerable sometimes to being absolutely infuriating at others, and you don't have much control over the angle. Your allies get in the way sometimes--as you go to shoot at a squadron of Stormtroopers you'll see yourself blasting away at C-3PO instead (or, if the camera isn't working right, you'll just hear him blow up), and if you're close to an ally you'll punch him or her instead of shooting at whatever it is you're trying to shoot at.

I don't want to be too critical of this game because all the extras and unlockable stuff make it worth playing, if even for a relatively short time. The "staging area" of the game is the Mos Eisley Cantina, where you can choose the mission you want to play and where the characters you've unlocked wander around. It's a nice touch, and the added ability to create custom characters by switching out body parts (just like real LEGOs!) is a definite plus. Still, even though I wanted to keep at this game and keep working toward 100% completion I couldn't bring myself to do it--I could only play through some of those levels so many times...

Overall I'd say this game is worth a shot (a rental maybe), and is certainly a nice alternative for younger Star Wars fans or gamers who want a Star Wars game that isn't too heavy on action. If you've got a Wii, however, you might want to wait for the upcoming compilation of both this and the first Star Wars LEGO game (episodes 1-3)--there may be some changes and additions made that could really improve upon the current game.
