    As someone who is a big supporter of ports on the Switch, this game may have me reaching my breaking point with the whole concept. I’m getting tired of publishers using the Switch as a reason to double-dip on games, I’m getting tired of ports that aren’t optimized for the system it’s on, and I’m just getting tired of old games taking precedence over new ones. Why couldn’t we have gotten Star Wars: The Force Unleashed instead?

I looked at this port on its own 2003 merits, and while its character customization is nice, the story is fine, and its combat is quite fun once you’ve learned your way around it, it’s glitchy as heck, especially in the speeder bike level, and several levels are near impossible to pass by such poor programming, not by difficulty. Plus, it’s menus and HUD aren’t really in 16:9 like the screenshots lead you to believe, they’re just stretched from 4:3. To me, it’s a really mixed bag. Full Review »

The rumble is way too strong and can't adjusted or even turned off. The save/load menu selector doesn't always point to where it actually thinks it is. It has crashed a lot during loading (though thankfully not during gameplay).

    The controls also don't translate well to a console; not having buttons to hotkey force powers to makes jedi combat frustrating and a joystick just isn't precise enough to make the lightsaber combat flow.

    It's playable and it's fun, but the PC version is better. I wouldn't recommend it unless you absolutely have to play it on the Switch.
