All the Star Wars are great, but have you seen this one?
The graphics are amazing, the game looks as it's going to be good, the characters are nice, and it's based on the next Star Wars film, Episode II: Attack Of The Clones! What else could you ask for?!
This game will be the best game ever for PS2! You'll definetely have to buy it 'cause it rocks!!!

Excellent Game to play (PS2)

I never played the original Star Wars Starfighter so I cannot accurately compare the two games. I do know , however that Jedi Starfighter is a very good looking and fun game.
The graphics are the best thing that JS has going for it. There are over 40 ships from the relam of Star WARs (old and new). Their detail is great, and their flight patterns and movements are awesome. The coolest thing is the trailing afterburners of all the ships. Your ships lasers are very cool and they sound just like the lasers in Star Wars movies. The backgrounds are also very good pieces of artwork.
The story line in JS is set right after Phantom Menace but before the Attack of the Clones. Wlhat I really like about the story is that the writers did not try to make it like the movie, but instead set it in the world of George Lucas during a different time and place. This is smart! Movie plots are hardly ever accurately translated to game plots.
Another cool thing about JS is that you can play two players. There are five different modes for multiplayer, and get this you can play the regulary story based missions as a co-op two player journey awesome.
The story missions are the coolest to me, and you play as two different characters Adi Gallia(Jedi), and Nym who is a land owner fighting the seccessionist in Karthaak.
Like the first Starfighter, the game is not really a Star Wars game other than the flavor and the music.It is not like Rogue Squadron in that sense. But to me the controls and gameplay are better than in Rogue Squadron. You are not bound by a fake ceiling or bottom in mid-air. you have total 360 degree movemant in your planes. The weapons are ample and accrately done and Adi Gallia can perform force attacks from the cockpit.

Add to all of this the ability to unlock trailers and extra vehicles for multiplayer mode, and you have a very good game. I reccomend it to all Star Wars fans and to anyone who likes aerial shooters.

I being a huge Star Wars fan bought this game right off the bat. This game is good but it could have been better. Jedi Starfighter is pretty much like Starfighter but with more ships, better graphics, and a new story line. Some people complain about slowdown, but I haven't exprienced any. This game has great value but it ended a bit too short. The graphics in this game are shiny and crisp, the gameplay is smooth, the sound rocks, and the story is entirely new! Some new things in this game are the ship capabilites. For instance with the Jedi Starfighter you can use the force as a weapon (Shockwave,Slow every thing down, energy shield, and force lightning.) The Havic also has more firepower. This game also kind of gives you a clue about what Episode II Attack of the Clones is about. Jedi Starfigter also had DvD extras like previews for upcoming games, Outakes from episdode II, and story boards. You start off as Adi Gallia, a Jedi Knight testing out a new prototype, the Jedi Starfighter. She goes out to find Nym and... You'll see if you buy it. If your a big Star Wars fan like me then you should pick up this game immediatley.

Where was the Ewoks?

Great game, shoot 'em up, rpg, sci-fi/fantasy feel without a doubt. I just wish there had been Ewoks to blast up, or maybe a scene where you could kill Jar-Jar.
Graphics, real good but some backgrounds could have used a tad more detail. Sound, nice what we expect from Lucas Arts. Gameplay, good and precise. Can be played multiple times. Better than most PS2 games. If you like Star Wars, a must have. If you don't, worth a look...
Go Argonauts!

A sequel that fits the bill

... Careful reviewers dont ruin it for the new kids. Moving on - if you have played the first Star Wars Starfighter and liked it this one takes off right where the first one left off. Controls are very similiar and the graphics are better. A new co-op option is a welcome addition as well. If you have played this game and wonder if the first is worth playing don't hesitate as both games are 4.5 or 5's in my book and I am not a flying game fanatic. Sound is very good but dialogue is a little repetitive. It has a training mode that is easy to follow and doesn't bore you to death at the same time. Don't hesitate or worry about blowing the ... dollars to purchase it - you will not feel cheated. May the force be with you.

Awesome

This game is so awesome to play. It makes you feel like you're inside a dogfight. This is a vast improvement over the overrated Star Wars Starfighter, which I thought was no fun to play. It also introduces new characters that will be in Episode 2, so what more do you want? This is 50 bucks well paid.

AWESOME!!! A MUST BUY FOR STAR WARS FANS!

If I had to use one word to describe Jedi Starfighter it would be AWESOME!!! This is a great game for anyone who is a fan of the Star Wars movies.The music in this game is mainly from Episode 1 and new music which might be in Episode 2. Just playing this game is like you are in a star wars movie. I have read a lot of complaints about the graphics, but when I bought the game I noticed that these people are being too technical. In other words THE GRAPHICS ARE GREAT!!!!! The game play is also great. Though there aren't an extreme amount of missions in the story mode they can all be played co-operatively and there is alot of stuff to unlock,such as additional single and two player modes, extra ships (yes. Your favorites from the movies as well as new ones.An x-wing, tie fighter, Boba Fett's ship, etc.)and adds for new Star Wars games, stuff about Episode 2,etc. There are a few weak points however but I didn't mark the game down a star because all the good things about the game totally outweigh the bad. One of these weak points is that in outer space when you are coming close to a big space station-like ship that you need to blow certain thing on it up it is sometimes hard to tell the difference between the ship and space. This sometimes makes you crash a lot. The other weak point is that it is somewhat hard to see in the two player modes (not including the advanced havoc missions). I can't compare this game to Star Wars: Starfighter because I honestly have never played it. Even so I am sure that this game must be a lot better then it. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who is a Star Wars fan like me, anyone who wants a glipse at the ships, music, and story line of episode 2 (which is hinted thoughout the game), or anyone looking for a good space shooter like Rebel Assault, Star Fox, or Descent.I honestly think that this is the best Star Wars game for PS2. IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING TO BUY THIS GAME I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU TO BUY IT!!!!!!!!

X-Wing it is not

What a disappointment. Doesn't even compare to 1992 X-Wing for PC. The graphics and sound are awesome for this game, but the gameplay is downright boring. It doesn't even feel like the space ship is moving, so all you do is hold down the fire button and move the sight around till you find a bad guy. The game isn't awful, it just feels so bring to sit there and shoot, and shott, and shoot and not have to control anything else.
Play the X-wing games on pc. More ships, better plots, better missions.

Alright, but...

It is really good. Graphics, sound, plot all of that stuff is good. I suggest you rent it though... Just rent and in 3-4 days you will finish it.
