Buyers BEWARE WILL NOT WORK ON PSP + 4gb Memory Stick

I bought this game for my kid, i have a 4gb Memory Stick, and running on Firmware 3.03. it will simply not save saying that i don't have a memory stick or 128k to save on. Is a HUGE BUG, that is not being addressed properly either by sony nor Lucas Arts.

Temp FIX, find a damn working saved game on the net and use it.

Fun at first but boring

This game is very fun at first but as you get to episode 6 you want it to be over. When you finish the game their is nothing to do but unlock things and free play.Its like playing all over again. The first Lego star Wars game was way better.

Great game - but I have come across a technical problem

This is a great game for kids and adults - pretty much the same as the first Lego Star Wars for the console systems. The gameplay is great, the puzzles are fun, and it is cool how you can re-visit a level and find new stuff, and the PSP version has three complete levels from the first Lego Star Wars console game.

However, I have played the "Mos Eisley SpacePort" level twice now in free play mode, and each time, my PSP powers itself down when I get to the end of the level and all my progress is lost. This is not a "checkpoint save" type of game; you have to play a level to the end in order to fully save all of your progress and keep all of the stuff that you found. This is really frustrating for a bunch of reasons. In order to unlock certain things in the game, you have to find all the mini-kit pieces and achieve "True Jedi" status on each level. I haven't been able to do this on "Mos Eisley" because of this problem. I am using system 2.80 on my PSP, and I noticed that the Lego Star Wars UMD has System 2.71 on it. Not sure if that is contributing.

This is a really fun game, but this technical glitch really sours the experience for me. I would be curious to know if others are having the same problem. The other levels I have played in free-play mode have not done this (powered the PSP down), so I don't think that the entire game is flawed. I had this problem a few times when playing "Sims 2" and once or twice with "Splinter Cell". This game is still great and I highly recommend it. I plan to follow-up with the manufacturer and find out more information about this.

GAME DOES NOT SAVE

Our sons loved the game; however, it does not save. We have had this same issue with a couple other PSP games (spiderman 3, MX vs ATV).

Fun, but more legos than star wars

This game is definitely fun (and more than a few times funny, particularly during the cut scenes - though making Chewbaka tear the arms off a stormtrooper never gets old), but it's not really like playing the Star Wars movies. Sure, the basic story and characters of the movies are there, but because it's Legos and because it's a game that involves a lot of running and jumping around to move through areas and solve basic puzzles, the game has more of the feeling of a standard adventure/platformer rather than the feeling of really playing through the movies.

There are some other pros and cons as well - some of the areas can be unique and fun, like flying the x-wing along the Death Star at the end of episode 4, or flying the land speeders through the forest in episode 6. However, one somewhat odd part of the game is that you can't access numerous areas of each chapter until you've completed the chapter and replay it using alternate characters. For some, this might be fine, but for those who aren't into repeatedly playing parts of a game over and over, this can be a drag.

Overall though, the game is certainly good cute fun, and if you're into Legos and/or Star Wars (and adventure/platformer type games), I'd recommend it.

How big is your memory stick capacity in your PSP?

Although this game is loads of fun, there is an annoying technical setback. I have a 4GB memory stick in my PSP. I figured it'll be big enough for all of the game saves, music, pictures and movies. Well, this game didn't even recognize the memory stick. I send email to the tech support, and they said the game is designed only to work with the memory stick comes with the console. Not only they failed to notice that not every PSP comes with a memory stick, also they failed to mention what is the max size memory stick can be used. So I bought a 512MB stick, and the game works with it. I don't know if 1GB or 2GB will also work, but I know 4GB won't work for sure.

About the game play, there is lots of humor, and fun features. The graphic is very nice for a portable game, and the game story sticks very closely to the original star wars movies. But there is couple of issues. The camera angle can be a little annoying in some scenes and have some long loading time issue. Other than that, it's a fun game to play.

BEST STAR WARS GAME

THIS IS A REALLY FUN GAME. THE ONLY BAD THING ABOUT THIS GAME IS THAT THE CHARACTERS NEVER TALK(I KNOW THEY'RE LEGOS). BUT SOMETIMES THE NO TALKIN' IS FUNNY. LIKE WHEN DARTH VADER SHOWS LUKE SKYWALKER A PICTURE OF HIM(LUKE,I AM YOUR FATHER). OR WHEN HAN SOLO GETS FROZEN IN CARBONITE.ON EPISODE 6 FIGHTING THE EMPEROR IS HARD UNLESS UR PLAYIN 2 PLAYER.FOR ONE PLAYER, IF THE EMPEROR ELECTICUTES U U QUICKLY HAVE TO CHANGE 2 THE OTHER PLAYER AND HIT HIM, AND IT KEEPS GOIN ON. I LIKE THE SUPER MOVES SUCH AS CHEWBACCA RIPS THE ARMS OFF OR LEIA PUNCHES THEM IN THE FACE OR WHEN LUKE TURNS THEIR HEADS AROUND.
SO ENJOY THE GAME AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH U.

Fun-Fun-Fun

Bought this game thinking I'd take a break from long storyline type games. Ended up playing this longer than most other games. The Star Wars stories are precise and playing within the levels is just plain FUN. You want to find all the hidden areas. I'd say buy it for the fun factor alone.

Nice Game

This game is the sequel to the first game, and works very well on the PSP. The graphics are really nice and smooth, and the game is very funny. (as far as I know funny is a hard thing to do in a videogame, but this game pulls it off.) The gameplay, was pretty fun at first, but after a while, I stopped playing it for some reason. I haven't finished it yet, and I don't know why, but it hasn't kept my attention long. Lots of other reviewers said it was really fun, but for me it is more of a pick up and play once in a while game. Part of the reason, is probably not the full freedoms in an X-Wing or other space craft. ( I was expecting those parts to play more like Rogue Squadron) All in all, I do recommend this game. I suppose it is what you desire in a videogame, that decides whether you like a game or not.

It is a really fun game for all ages. Star Wars fans will really enjoy this game.

Action with really good humor, that is what you get playing this game. I really enjoyed a lot playing episodes IV, V and VI. I have the original movies (cause I am a Star Wars fan) and I loved the way this game represented this movies, THEY SIMPLY DID NOT MISS A SIMPLE DETAIL, and the humor (like when OBI ONE gave the Light Saber to LUKE SKYWALKER)is amazing.
