    Revenge of the Sith is nothing but a sad, disappointing game based on a decent movie. But I guess I should get used to it, because since Knights of the Old Republic, Star Wars games have been less than stellar. To make things worse, the only Star Wars game to look forward to is Battlefront II, but if the first game is an indication, it will be lacking as well.

    Star Wars Ep. 3 in my options was now very good. I never saved my game and the textures looked terrible. (Yes I do realise it's a PS2 game.) The gameplay felt stale after a while and the gameplay and mechanics never felt real or any good. But what do you expect from a game that was made from a moive.

    Overall
    -Bad Graphics
    -Bad Gameplay
    -Bad Mechanics
    Score 53/100

    Although finished in a day the game has many replayability options and the action was intense, great game.

    A great game, i put it into my ps2 and had alot of fun with it. I really enjoy multiplayer duel, i find it very deep and very fun. Better then i expected, and it gives you the real jedi experience, i guess. my only complaint is that its far to short and they could of definetly spaced their unlockables out a little bit. other then that its a great game.

    How can a game be so boring? I've played this game for 1/2 hour and turned off my PS2 to watch TV.

    Wow...this game is excellent!!! great visuals,great sound effects, story flows nicely. the only thing I would change is let the player control the camra rather than fixed. thats the only reason I gave it a 9.

This game really makes you look like your a master of the force which is what games of this nature should strive to do in my opinion. Make you look like a demi god from the first moment of play. Easily on parr with Prince of Persia WW or devil may cry 3. (Not Devil May Cry 1 though).… Expand

    Eh... i bought it more for a sneak peak at the movie and was hoping for a mindless slash-through, which I somewhat got. It is a very short game and gets old fast. Most of the enemies can be defeated in the same repititious manner. Not much to it. I had some fun playing it though, could have used a bit more.

    The game looks good and is pretty easy to pick up and play. The only thing that I dislike is how short it is, Jedi battles are cool. Graphics are great and the voice acting was very well done. This is an expantion of the movie that gives us more insight into the star wars universe. If you want a good action game I recommened.

    The is not bad at all, if you look at it from Star Wars point of view. The game is great as there e not much titles of Star wars out there with proper combat system except Lego Star Wars(3rd person Action). What i will say the game is great not a perfect score though.

    Is it as fun as hell? Yes. Is it repetetive as hell? Hell yes. It's a good game, but bland graphics and way to simple controls along with added scenes and twisted scenes that weren't in the film hold it back from being great.

    Its ok for action but everything is just the same thing...You fight droids throw ur saber and use the force in every level its just action!....Where is the adventure, in the first Episode you had to find your way through Jar Jars home that was exciting and finding the parts when the ship broke down on that Planet and the pod racing..in this one theres nothing.

    It is not a "bad" game. The game is hard when you begin, but gets easier over time. Once you learn some of the advanced moves, you will find it easier and more fun. However, there are other, more fun, Star Wars games to play, like Lego Star Wars II.

    An amazing game featuring the best of the precuels which was all the lightsaber combat you were able to do. I give it an 8 since it was a pain in the bum when I was a kiddo to play it, dying all the time but for sure a game featring a nice set of skills and characters, expanding the story. And thanks Jeezy it is in the PSN Store to buy.

    Videojuego entretenido, pero con carencias, los niveles consisten básicamente en avanzar para matar enemigos. Los combates con el sable de luz son entretenidos y los jefes muy exigentes en modo normal. Por 5 Euros en la PS store es una compra recomendada si te gusta Star Wars.

    Smooth animation, a fantastic soundtrack and plenty of variety in the use of combat and force powers make this a game that's engaging and fun to play through.

    It's obviously been slapped together from action sequences in the film to make a complimentary game and hopefully some easy cash, but on its own, it's less than stellar.

    Really one of those games that can be compared to a roller coaster in many ways. It has a lot of upsides and a lot of downsides, but in the end it just depends on whether you like roller coasters.
