    What happened here? Well the original game wasn’t great, so Aspyr definitely had their work cut out for them. You can only polish a turd so much. The new visuals are nice, the content is cool, but playing the game is just a painful exercise in frustration. It is never fun. I was constantly thinking about turning it off. I had to force myself to finish the first level when I started playing. This game is just not fun, and it should be. How they managed to take the easiest layup in gaming, making Jedi fun to play, and completely airballed it. I would skip this one entirely.

    Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles is sort of the ultimate version of the game, where you can find all the content in one place, even from different versions (and it's based on the Dreamcast version). So there's lots of characters, levels, a gallery of bonus material and other content. But it's not a good experience. It's full of bugs, often major ones, that often make it impossible to progress through the game.
