    The levels are barren, boring and repetitive, and the character animation is poor. [GamesMaster Magazine]

    If someone handed you a lightsaber, I bet you, like me, would want to rip a lot of things a new poopchute with it. Unfortunately, this isn’t the Ginsu simulator I was hoping for. [Feb 2002, p.168]

    This game doesn’t actually let you cut anything into lunchmeat except clunky Battle Droids. What fun is that?

    Chief among its problems is an unconvincing graphical presentation. [Feb 2002, p.61]

    A big disappointment. While there is potential here for a great game, it lacks the depth, production values, and fun associated with a quality Star Wars title.

    Played in 2021. This game was a lot of fun. Not objectively great, but it’s fun to swing the lightsabre and force push enemies all over thePlayed in 2021. This game was a lot of fun. Not objectively great, but it’s fun to swing the lightsabre and force push enemies all over the place. The music is pulled straight from the prequel movies and it’s awesome. The game does a great job of making you feel like a powerful Jedi. The level with the pilots toward the end was a great challenge. Also you have to fight a Jedi master towards the end and that was a memorable boss fight that was satisfying to win. This game loses points for the early levels which are a little dull. Overall a pleasant action game if you don’t mind the poor graphics and repetitive gameplay.… Full Review »
