Don't get me wrong I am a diehard Star Wars fan, yet to me this game was a huge suckfest. The side scrolling adventure and the horrible graphics further retard the game. The music sounds as if John Williams had no role in it. The story line (if any) to the movie was no where nearly followed, and the title cards that explain the plot bored me into into oblivian. I also did not enjoy the fact that if I got to Level 9 and felt like stopping I would lose all of data from before. I even tried to write down all of the pass codes, but by the time i was done playing and writing my batteries had died. This was just another example of Lucas Arts trying to milk the Star Wars franchise. The game was horrible and not even worth the lint in my pocket.
Can be fun at first bu then you start to notice some probems

To start off, we've all probably heard of the Star Wars saga now and their games as well. Now a new game has been added to the video game saga. Episode II isn't a bad game, but to say that the game is excellent is also saying much. The game is just good.
The gameplay is good and the action is brilliant. The contorls aren't bad though if the small GBA was designed like a SNES controller the controls would be easier to control. Also, I found that the controls are a bit unresponsive at times. That could be a problem to a gamer.
The problem with the game is that if you're going through a tough level and you die, there aren't any checkpoints in levels, meaning if you die you have to start completely from the beginning of a level, and to most gamers that can be a pain. You can't skip the scenes that show the story going on, so if you played through once you can't skip them.
And lets face it. Even for a GBA these graphics are down right terrible, and the game lacks replay value. Sure the gameplay is good but thats a first come first serve thing.
Lastly is sound. While some of the sound (actually probably all of it) come fromthe movie itself, the John Williams score doesn't sound too good coming from the GBA's speakers the same way it did coming from the SNES.
My advice would be not to buy this game, unless yur expectations are a lot smaller than what I expected from this title. I loved the Super Star Wars games on the SNES but this one is a let down compared to the others
Losing The Force???

This is not the worst Star Wars video game to ever hit
store shelves. It comes pretty darn close though. What is the best part of Star Wars Episode II Attack Of The Clones for Gameboy Adavance? The packaging! Thats right! The box that holds this poor excuse for a Star Wars title is it's greatest aspect. When one checks out screen shots from various internet sites & magazines that showcase this title, one tends to think this game will be simply fantastic.
Being the only video game title to all encompass such a great movie it should have been truly splendid. Unfortunately this game is far from fantastic and is nowhere near splendid. The cool graphics and soundtrack do not make up for the horrible gameplay or lack thereof. This is one of the most difficult video games to control. I spent forty-five mins on the first level at the lowest difficulty setting and found myself ready to toss my gameboy advance out the window.
Being Anakin Skywalker is fun, but not when the playability doesn't exist. If one does decide to purchase this game, get it as a collector's item. Not as entertainment. Some things are just better left in a galaxy far far away.
Only for die hard gamers

If you aren't a die hard gamer this game is likey not for you.
The controls in side scrolling lightsaber mode are complicated and non-intuitive. Example: Stop moving, press the A (attack) button first, _THEN_ the direction pad to direct your attack. With most games its simply attack in the direction you are moving. While this may be life in the real world ("uh oh, I better get ready to fight, Attack, Go for the chest") it doesn't work so well in this game where the goal is to move to the end of the level.
I didn't find the graphics to be all that impressive. It's pretty hard to well show lots of detail on the small GBA screen.
Honestly, take this game on a "test drive" (find a friend) before you shell out the hard earned dollars for it -- unless you're hardcore...
The force is a bit disappointing with this one.

In a nutshell, its too easy and has bad graphics. Episode I has better game play and control, which made this all the more disappointing. And unless if im missing something, you cant use your force powers against Dooku, he always counteracted before i got to pull them off. I defeated him by pressing one button over and over again. Wheres the challenge?
Yuck...

Man, this game is sad. Graphics are palatable, but the controls kill what should be an otherwise awesome game. For example, the controls during lightsaber battles are so complex that you are required to stand still while dishing out your justice ...
Very frustrating

Now there have been some bad Star Wars games, and this is one of them. When I first saw screenshots of this I thought it would be a great platform game like the original Super Star Wars for the Super NES. Boy was I wrong. The controls are unresponsive, and while the characters are nicely designed, the background levels aren't designed very good. The John Williams score is grating on the GBA's tiny speakers, and all that combined means that you will die, a lot. And when you die, no matter how far you get in the level when you die, you start over right from the beginning. All in all, I think Star Wars fans should use the force, and skip this one.
I did not enjoy this game.

I am a die hard Star Wars fan, this game is an abomination of the Star Wars franchise. I bought this game about the same time that the movie came out, and i was seriously let down. The entire game is a side scroller that is loosely based on the movie. Even the music seems as though John Williams had nothing to do with it. On the back it said you could choose your Jedi, but when I started Playing I did not have a choice. Also the inability to save just added to the over all let down of this game. I am saying this as a fan do not buy this game.
Wait for the other versions!!!
