Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga Reviews

• Lots and lots of fun!

  
  By A1N224TUQO6XYD on 2007-11-18
  This is a new edition of the previous Star Wars Lego games. They have been repackaged and some extras have been added. The biggest difference is the improvement in graphics and continuity. You can play the game by yourself, with a partner or on-line. And, after you have completed everything, you can do it all in one fell swoop! That is what the game claims, I haven't reached that point yet!
  
  I was introduced to the Star Wars Lego series with the last installment, Star Wars Lego II: The Original Trilogy and I must admit I was a bit disappointed the first time I played this game. There is a significant difference between the difficulty of the games as well as the playability. But, once I realized that it was unreasonable to expect the entire set to be 2007 X-Box 360 quality, I started having a lot of fun.
  
  Now, I should add that my daughter has loved this game from day one. She had played some of the older games at her friend's and was extremely excited to get the game (she made me pre-order it!)
  
  Short and sweet: the game is a lot of fun. It is not too difficult, but that doesn't really matter. There are so many hidden items and very funny scenes that the game is a joy to play. You don't find yourself laughing out loud too often playing video games, but you will be in this one. Storm Troopers in speedos, enough said......
  
  The game is good for children and adults. This is also a game you can play with your children. The two player mode works very well. The two player mode is also good for helping children (and adults) understand the concepts of cooperation and sharing---a definite plus in the world of gaming! There isn't anything too bad in any of the games. Characters explode into a pile of legos and you can shoot buildings apart---that is about it on the violence scale. It is definitely a fun game and you will not be disappointed!
  
  

• Great Game, But Hard to Recommend

  
  By A29BQ6B90Y1R5F on 2007-11-08
  The original Lego Star Wars was an unprecedented success. Who'd have thought that a game where the you played through the prequel episodes entirely made of Legos would've been such a huge success? Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy soon followed and was overall a better game because they were based off better movies (and some of the gameplay had been refined to be better). The Complete Saga now sees both games put together in one package. You can now play through all six episodes without any interruption. There are new levels to explore, the refined gameplay of the second game is used all throughout and that also means there are more characters.
  
  You'll play through the saga's best lived moments, and there's a multiplayer aspect thrown in for good measure. You and a friend will conquer all six episodes by solving puzzles and using the force. The game is filled to brim with a great sense of humor and you'll be drowned in nostalgia as you play through episodes IV, V and VI. There's nothing to difficult about the gameplay either. You'll take down the bad guys and solve puzzles to open doors. You'll build things to help you out and pilot vehicles like the Pod Racer from Episode I and the X-Wing. You'll also collect studs to by many of the games unlockables including characters and vehicles. Then, of course, there's the customization that'll let you make a custom character. And with well over 100 characters, there are literally thousands of possibilities.
  
  The only real big problem with Lego Star Wars is simply that the game is way too easy. There's no such thing as a game over. Should you die, the only bad thing that happens to you is you lose some studs. At least the game is so much fun that you really don't care. Also, while cooperating with a friend, you can both battle each other and to the victor go the spoils. Its great fun even if you can't die permanently.
  
  This is great for someone who has never played the Lego Star Wars games before, but what about if you have? There's really not a whole lot of new content here for those who played the first two games to begin with. Some levels have been altered, but for the most part, it's all the same stuff. True there are a bunch of new levels, but if you've already got the first two games... the list price just isn't worth it to play what will virtually be the same two games all over again. Even if there are some extras, it's just too much of the same thing.
  
  This then, brings about the question as to whether or not it would just be better to find used copies of the first two games. That really depends. The XBOX360 version has better graphics. It's smoother and runs better. If you buy the original games separate and used, you'll have to downgrade to the PS2, Gamecube or XBOX to have both (since the first game didn't come to 360 at all). The simple solution is this: If you have one, but not the other, it's easier (and cheaper) just to go pick up the game you don't have. If you have neither of them then by all means pick up The Complete Saga.
  
  

• Best of the series -- comparing to former titles

  
  By A3D3ECB1F4Y2LE on 2007-12-11
  The Complete Saga improves over LEGO Star Wars II.
  
  Load time is faster especially for character based levels.
  
  The local co-op camera push bug (first AT-ST floating forward in Battle of Endor, and TIE Fighter turrets popping one player out every 30 seconds) was fixed. One player (in local at least) still needs to drop out sometimes to grab some minikits. (Still get stuck at the farthest, last Death Star Escape platform; don't go there.)
  
  True Jedi only needs to be accomplished in Story or Free Play mode. I sort of miss having to get True Jedi in both modes. They replace that gold brick with a Challenge mode where they take away all extras enabled and give you a time limit to find 10 different (blue) minikits. I'd rather take the old trade since time based levels suck in general.
  
  The lobby is better overall. While the outdoor area is smaller than ever, they make up for it by having two cars available! They also added "Beep-Beep" Extra for honking the horns while in the car. My girlfriend thinks that's the best thing ever. They add the band characters in the bar this time. The mini-kits are no longer in the way. They have a gallery for them which you scroll through. There is nothing for bounty hunters/super ewoks in the lobby.
  
  The Jedi glow detection remains the same. Wish they improved it (needed some work -- should prioritize to items and characters over your own buddy). Some NPCs get stuck randomly (but rarely) and twitch in place like crazy. I think it's a new bug.
  
  The grass areas have added lush. It's a nice touch.
  
  There is a new LEGO City: "New Town". It's an improved version of LEGO City with dumber stuff removed and cooler stuff added (boat in water and power lines). Easier to unlock (just 50 gold bricks). They also kept LEGO City as an option too.
  
  There is an alternative New Hope level where you play as Darth Vader and Stormtrooper.
  
  All the stuff from LEGO Star Wars I is definitely improved to at least LSWII standards or better.
  
  

• Lego Star Wars is the best!

  
  By AUWAGQMXO0IGK on 2007-12-17
  I owned both Lego Star Wars for the xbox and Lego Star Wars II for the 360. When this came out, I traded them both in and bought this new. It might not be worth it for everyone to do this, but it was for me. If you're already familiar with LSW, here's the differences I've noticed between having this edition vs. having the original two games:
  
  - Episodes I, II, and III (the first Lego Star Wars game) are now fully 360 compatible, so they're in HD and you can earn achievements
  
  - There's a new Cantina menu, so you can access all six episodes from one place
  
  - The improvements made for LSW2 have been retroactively applied to LSW1, like being able to use vehicles
  
  - Twice as many power bricks, which means twice as many special powers (consistently, many of them are funny and useless)
  
  - The levels are the same, however there are several additions such as "power-up" bubbles (which make you briefly invincible and I think increase your weapons power) and blue minikit canisters
  
  - A two-player section was added with a variety of arcade-style games.
  
  - The points where the game was notoriously prone to crashing (crossing the river in Ep. VI superstory, for instance) seem to have been fixed. These problems didn't seem to affect everyone, but they did happen to a lot of people, and prevented me from finishing LSW2.
  
  For me, it was worth buying just to get everything in HD and for the possibility of actually finishing the game this time!
  
  If you haven't played the LSW games before, they're awesome. It's redundant for me to give all the reasons the games are awesome, so I'll just mention that one of my favorite things about it is that it's pretty easy. I can play it and unwind without worrying about dying over and over, and I still get through a level even if I'm distracted or not 100% sober. However, if you're a hardcore gamer, you may find the game to be too easy. The changes for The Complete Saga have made the game even easier. On the other hand, if you go for all the achievements, like undefeated on some of the vehicle levels, you will be challenged.
  
  

• Poor use of the Star Wars License

  
  By A1UHL2HJQ52J20 on 2008-06-11
  First Off I am a big fan of Star Wars, and have always loved Legos. So how could I not love the idea of mixing Star Wars with Legos, right? WRONG! This game is horrible on so many levels!
  
  First, I have to admit to being shocked that any grown adult would find this even remotely entertaining. And like I said, I love anything that has the stink of Star Wars on it.
  
  The Good--
  There are times when it is very funny seeing cutscenes done using Legos. Just imagine some of your favorite scenes of the Saga reenacted with Legos, often times these scenes are funny the first time through. There is a certain humor when a starship or a droid blows up, only to be blown into the Lego bits the toy would be made out of in real life.
  
  There is a lot of variety in the characters
  This should be both a pro and con. Yes, there are a lot of charcaters in the game, but they are all the same! Sure, there are dozens of heads and bodies you can put together but they end up fighting the same way. If they hold a blaster, they shoot at everything in the environment non stop. If they have a lightsaber they can swing away non-stop, and use a force push on bad guys. And droids move around opening doors and using things. That is it. Seriously.
  
  The Bad--
  The bad elements certainly outnumber the good. Even though it is the Star Wars universe, you aren't actually doing anything. Yes, the Legos reenact scenes from the movies. But it goes like this: If you are guiding Qui-Gon through the space port on Tatooine you see many alien and droid legos walking by that are just there for flavor. Attack droids keep popping out of the wood work and all you do is run around slashing at everything. Most of the environments can be destroyed. When you destroy an item it breaks into little lego pieces which you pick up to earn things. So you run around destroying everyting in your way (by this I mean just rapidly smashing the attack button) and picking up the pieces. That is it. The game is mapped out with you running from point A to point B in each level smashing everything you can see. At first the novelty is fun and cute until you realize that is all it is: a novelty!
  
  I am shocked at the number of people that seem to enjoy these games. I will admit they are good for little kids in the 5-10 yr range because it is something that will hold their interest and yet not be too difficult.
  
  I am even more sadened to see that we now have Lego Indianna Jones and Lego Batman. What a marketing ploy....
  
  
• Gaming nirvana
  By A20UHWR387EFAG on 2008-06-26
  Four words: the best game ever. This is the game that got me started playing with the xBox. Up to this point, I was a puzzle-game person (Peggle, JewelQuest, Nancy Drew, Agatha Christie and the like) and avoided most action games. Partly because I do get motion sick, and partly because I have the reflexes of a sloth. I've never been able to handle the action first-person shooter style games, but this one is different.
  
  The camera angle, other than in a very few places, is such that I don't get motion sick and the fact that dying doesn't (usually) do anything bad but cost you money (until you're invincible) is great. It's a low-pressure game, and while a few of the situations can be a little frustrating (such as the jumping - at least until you get flying characters!) overall it's just good fun.
  
  And long! This is a game where you get your money's worth, that's for sure. There are six episodes, each with six levels. In each level there are 4 objectives (True Jedi, Red Brick, Mini-kits, Blue Cannister Challenge), which require several play-throughs in different modes. There are also some bonus levels (Lego Town, New Lego Town, etc) and extra challenges (Jaba the Hutt's 'find the character' levels).
  
  And last, but not least, you get the achievements - from the simple 'completed the level' to the fun 'let the wookie win' to the difficult 'complete a level without dying (and not being invincible)'.
  
  The only thing I was disappointed in was what was built after all the gold bricks were acquired. It was a bit of a letdown, but barely puts a dent in the greatness of the game. This is the game that all future games will be measured against in my book. Cute, creative, fun, and simply amazing. Go play it today! Even if you're not an 'action game' sort of person. Really, you won't regret it.
  
  
• Great Game for all ages
  By A3UA3EW8ON431J on 2007-12-10
  I really like this game. it's a game for all ages. it follows the movie, but also let's you have fun and mess around. you can play as any character, including Darth Vader, or a storm trooper or jar jar binks.
  I'd recomend it to anyone. hours and hours of fun.
  
  
• A very enjoyable game
  By ANMMJRQ2UL243 on 2008-01-15
  As the other reviewers have said, this game is simple but fun. I have one gripe though. Having played through the prior XBox 360 Lego Star Wars game (Ep. IV, V, and VI), I would have appreciated having the achievements and points I earned carry over to this game. At least giving the player the option to choose whether to carry over the achievements and points from the prior game would have been nice.
  
  
• What fun and a GSOH.
  By A14AZWOLGK6MD3 on 2007-12-14
  The Lego Star Wars games seem to have such wonderful humour. Although the Star Wars items have been done to death, this humour makes the game. It is fun, and challenging and suitable for all ages. Theres no language to be concerned about either. A long lasting game and multiplayer too. Very good value for money in my opinion.
  
  
• A winner for the whole family!
  By A30LQCDFH7R5XM on 2008-01-02
  We all love this game and haven't been able to stop playing since we opened it on Christmas morning. This includes our 4 yr old, 8 yr old, 14 yr old and my husband and I too! Here are the reasons I think it is worth every penny for a family:
  
  - combines 2 of my son's obsessions: Legos and star wars.
  - challenging enough to keep you interested, but not so hard as to be frustrating.
  - many different ways to track your successes, for example: 42 built- in "Game Achievements;" earning lego studs to purchase fun and goofy extras as well as characters to play and special powers; collecting canisters to assemble "mini-kits;" earning "True Jedi" status on each chapter, as well as just successfully completing each of six chapters in each of the 6 movies/episodes. This variety of ways to track your success means that almost any player can feel challenged *and* successful both.
  - moderately challenging [but not frustratingly so] both in terms of physical/gamer agility [ability to use controller and manuever your characters] and mental/puzzle-solving and strategy. This means that it's equally fun for my 8 yr old who is a whiz with the controller and my slow 40 yr old fingers!
  - is fun to play by yourself -- but also *great* for 2 players. As a mom, I love that 2 player mode keeps both players on the "same team." It encourages cooperative play. And it is easy for the second player to drop in and out. You do not have to switch games or re-start to add or leave. So we can pop in a game to help each other out during a particularly challenging section -- without committing to playing a whole chapter.
  - As a family we easily have over 40 hours of game play in so far and no one is the least bit tired of it. There are so many permutations and extra rooms and puzzles -- some of which it's impossible to figure out your first [or second] time through a chapter. The game is designed so that even after you play through all 36 chapters in "story" mode [with the characters that should be in the scene according to the movie], there are puzzles and challenges to do and new areas to discover in each chapter in "free play" mode with new and different characters.
  
  As a parent I am not a huge fan of too much video-gaming. But we spent a *lot* of time playing this *as a family* over the kids' break from school and I can honestly say that I consider it family-together time that was well-spent. I have no reservations about recommending this product. My only wish is that you could play it as a 3 or 4 person game.
  
  
  
  
• Fantastic combo of both games!
  By ABUB3AIP281KK on 2008-01-07
  My two sons have been having a ball with this game and can't put down the controller. All they talk about is how they can play so many more characters than the other two Star Wars Lego games! I thinks it's a cute game that safe for my kids to play unlike a lot of games out there! Thanks Lego!
  
  
• Great game for adults and kids on XBOX 360.
  By A3R1G8RK9JCHJY on 2008-01-09
  I purchased this game to play with my grandson. I like it because it has puzzles/challenges, some shoot-em-up and yet is not violent. There's lots of cute stuff in the game for those of us who grew up with Star Wars. It's fun to see how the characters in Legos format look and act.
  
  The harder challenges are over the head of a six-year old but we can play cooperatively and he enjoys the lesser challenges I leave to him.
  
  We've just gotten started but covering all 6 episodes of Star Wars makes this a long-term gaming opportunity.
  
  
  
• loved the game
  By A9IRAPTXLXD4O on 2008-01-14
  I really enjoy this game. my husband and my two six year old boys love it too!
  
  
• multiplayer fun
  By A3OGVO1M6MRUTI on 2008-01-18
  My whole family play's this game, from my 6 year old, to me the Dad.
  It is one of few game that more than one person can play at the same time, and is actually more fun with 2 people. The game seems to follow the StarWars movies fairly closely, and is a lot of fun to play.
  
  
• Great Fun!
  By A22ZE67UV36AS0 on 2008-01-22
  So nice to have all the games in one! My whole family is enjoying playing this game.
  
  
• Good Fun, Great Game Play--A must in your collection
  By A32OO1XQ2E1M4Z on 2008-02-07
  I've played them all---Half Life series, Quake... and even Star Wars First FPS Dark Forces, all great games and I must say that I had a blast playing this game. It's not often that you play a game and find yourself laughing, and in this game just the expressions of the characters can make you do that. I played this at my Brothers house and spent a few hours with my Nephews and then with my Brother and we played it until I could not even keep my eyes open.
  Graphics are basic, but yet very smooth and there are no problems with camera angles and controls. This game makes it very easy to get into so you can do just one thing---Enjoy the game and have fun. The game play action is sometimes interrupted with puzzles you need to solve in order to open doors and stuff like that, but that is what game of this type is all about.
  Do I own this game? No Am I going to buy it? Hek yea, this might be the game that will get my wife into console gameing-----Oh ObiWon, don't fail me know, you are my last hope for gaming wife.
  Enjoy the game, May the Force be with you!
  
  
• Amazingly Fun!!!
  By A226H3K2Q7FH4V on 2008-02-08
  I was a little skeptical about these games ever since they came out. I had never played any of them and finally my curiosity got the best of me and I bought this game yesterday. Boy have I been missing out!!! This game is one of the most fun games I have ever played. You will love this game, especially if you love Star Wars like I do, or like Legos like I used to.
  
  The combination of Star Wars and Legos is perfect. The gameplay is very smooth and very entertaining. This game brings me back to when I was a kid playing with Legos and I love that about this game. The game follows the movies very well also.
  
  All six movies in one game = awesome. Also my girlfriend and I played this game for 3 hours straight last night. She does not like video games but she loved this one. There is no blood or gore, just Legos breaking apart so this game would be great for kids.
  
  Overall a great game and I would recommend to everyone, even if you don't like Star Wars or Legos it would be fun (although a lot more fun if you do).
  
  
  
• Made for kids, guilty pleasure for adults ;)
  By AP63HV8H6R2VO on 2008-02-26
  I have the second game for my XBOX, but decided I wanted the complete saga for my XBOX360 because the game is so darn fun!! It can present a challenge at times, and there's so much to find and unlock. Highly recommended buy!
  
  
• Great Fun For Anyone, Regardless of Age
  By A18RQ2URRGIIEA on 2008-03-02
  "Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga" is a fun and entertaining videogame for both children and adults alike. All six "Star Wars" films are represented in six separate games, which each game containing six levels. First you must play a level in "story" mode: meaning that you must play that level using characters as defined by the game. Once you complete a level, you can replay it in "free mode", which allows you to play it with any characters that you have unlocked to that point. A variety of items are hidden in each level, some of which cannot be accessed until you can play that level in "free mode". For example, some areas are only accessible to bounty hunters and some objects can only be accessed using the dark side of the force.
  
  With each level successfully completed, the player earns a gold Lego block; and the more Lego pieces that are collected while playing a level, the more Lego "money" is earned, as well as the possibility of earning "Jedi status" for that level, which earns yet another gold Lego block. Finding hidden items in each level may unlock other abilities that can be purchased if you have earned enough Lego money. XBOX-360 Achievements are earned for completing each film-based game, as well as for other game accomplishments.
  
  Since the game's developers went to great lengths to recreate the look and feel of the "Star Wars" universe, as well as the plot of each film, in a Lego-format, "Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga" is an immersive game that is sure to provide many hours of entertainment and fun to anyyone. Hence, my overall rating for "Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga" is a resounding 5 out of 5 stars and I highly recommend it.
  
  
  
• Great Family Game
  By A2V9P5KODE32X4 on 2008-03-12
  Our kids loved the game. I enjoyed watching them play. My boys are 7 and 9 years old and they really enjoyed the game. So much that we are now renting all 6 episodes to watch them on TV again.
  
  
  
  
• Lego Stars Wars Rocks
  By AUNK8FO9TOUVZ on 2008-03-23
  I upgraded from the prior two versions of Lego Star Wars I had on my Xbox and it was well worth it. Game is great and gameplay just like the originals - awesome. Upgrades are okay but I was not overly impressed with the ability to mix and match characters from each. Overall still a great title especially if you do not own the other versions.
  
  
• Fabulously Fun
  By A29VCLT0CBKHD6 on 2008-04-01
  Thoroughly enjoyed this game. It's very long, so you get your money's worth. With Xbox 360 you can obtain all achievements without any online play. I recommend you use the Xbox forums to help you when you get stuck. Looking forward to Lego Batman & Indiana Jones.
  
  
• Extremely fun for all ages!
  By A21T1QS663ZPRU on 2008-04-24
  I bought this game simply for the fact that it is a Star Wars title and I love Star Wars and what made this game so entertaining was the simple fact that it takes a bit of a humorus spin on the movies themselves. It also ties in some very satifying gamer points for instance: Crowd Pleaser is nothing more than killing Jar Jar more than twenty times. I don't know about you but I took great pleasure in acheiving that mark. The thing that makes it fun for all ages is that the only violence that there is in this is the characters break into lego pieces. Nothing but fun at every turn!
  
  
• A great Star Wars game!
  By A39BVLJQQ3110V on 2008-05-05
  I have not played a really good Star Wars game since the one for the N64 many, many years ago. I will now have to add Lego Star Wars to the small list of great Star Wars games.
  
  First and foremost, this is a fun game which I would almost think is not for the real, real hard-core gamer. If you only like GTA or God of War, this might not be for you but if you like a bit of silly in your games this is one to look at. It is also a good game if you want something to play with your kids or other younglings. The violence is very cartoony but you still have Lego heads rolling around so you still get gore, be it plastic gore.
  
  The game play is pretty straight forward...controls are easy to learn. Lots of stuff to unlock which makes for repeating levels and thus extended game play adding to your gaming dollar value. True, when all is unlocked and all levels are completed I will probably never touch this game again but in 4 months of casual gaming I have only about 19% of the game completed.
  
  As an added bonus, many of the cut-scenes range from cute to really funny. I am not sure if I really like this because of the Lego or Star Wars aspect. I guess it is the perfect combination of the two. Hopefully with Lego Indy and Batman coming out, they same creativity and humor will be used to make those two games as enjoyable as this.
  
  The one down side I have found is 'peg grinding' for lack of a better term. You earn pegs of various values with which you can buy / unlock items. There are many places where the pegs are free but you have to spend quite a bit of time chopping and breaking a lot of things to get the pegs. Basically, I spend the first 15 minutes after logging in 'peg grinding' to maximize my unlockables. It is not that you must do this but I cannot imagine how long it would take to unlock a lot of the stuff if you did not take advantage of these pegs...it just wastes time which I find to be a bit of a downer.
  
  So, take this 4/5 as a really good review. I am not even sure what a 5 might be so I am saving it for the game or item that changes my life. In all this is a very good game. I am very selective about 360 games as I prefer the Wii but I had to have this for the 360.

  By A27HETEGU3VMH on 2008-06-04
  Not so much fun for adults but your kids will enjoy this little number for months to come
  
  
• A Great Game for Everyone
  By AAFXNK83H4L2K on 2008-06-04
  This game was awesome!!! It includes episodes IV, V and VI, from the Lego Star wars II game, and the new episodes I, II and III. This game can be played by all ages. I'm 17 and I love this game. I'll play it with my younger brother who's 11 and we'll have a ball playing this game. It is very addicting because once you beat one level you have to just keep on going.
  
  It's a lot of fun collecting the studs and buying your characters. I ended up buying the Lego star wars guide book, but it had a few typos in the beginning. It was missing where to find a minikit, but I found it so you could too.
  
  This is a great game and I would recommend this to anyone.
  
  
  
• Fun Game!
  By A1TGIADTNG7E6O on 2008-06-13
  I bought this for my 9 year old daughter for her birthday and she absolutely loves it! We love playing this one together. There are comic moments that we both laugh at in the game. If you're a Star Wars fan and are looking for a game that anyone in the family can play, get this.
  
  
• breaking blocks has never been more fun
  By A2C7XY7RZ8ESFB on 2008-07-02
  Story:
  It's Star Wars, what else can I say? Either you've seen the movies, played the games or seen one of the umpteen million clones. The one thing the game does do (with its tradmark humor) is it does explore some of the battles that are hinted at in the movie but never explored. Speaking of the humor in the game, the story is moved forward in silent (no talking) cut scenes that act out what happened in the story, usually with the characters doing something silly (where in the movie it was of course done seriously, proably with a annoying cg character and a lot of explosions)in a mini scene that summarizes what happened before and after the level. This paticular version combines the two previous seperate releases so you get the original movies and the prequel thingies, which means there is plenty material to explore and plenty of secrets to find. So take a look at this not just for kids take on the Star Wars universe and you may find yourself pleasantly suprised and maybe a little addicted.
  -------
  Game Play: Basic on the surface, run through the level bash anything that moves, but deep when the player starts trying to collect studs to fill the power meter, the power blocks and various other secrets that require the player to go back to the level and play through again with characters unlocked in later chapters. This game is also one of the rare one's that allow 2 player same xbox / same screen co-op so one can double the fun if they have someone else who wants to play.
  
  Graphics: I'm not big on this so to me they are great, the levels are colorful and bright, stuff blows up real good and there is not much slow down. It may just be my TV but when there is a lot of action on the screen I can see the refresh line as the game / xbox tries to keep up.
  
  Controls / Camera: The controls for this game are simple. One button attacks, one button jumps, one button uses whatever special ability a character uses. For the most part the characters do what the player tells them and rarely decides to jump into that pit of lava in front of him. I only had a problem with this in the level (return of the sith, pt 6) based around lava and you have to run and jump with the camera facing toward the characters so it's hard to see what is coming up. Speaking of the camera it's the usual fixed, occasionaly wonky deal but it is mostly servicable in this game.

• good first game for the Xbox 360

  Even if you've never seen the movies (does such a person really exist?) you'll enjoy this game but for Star Wars fans it's a must play. There's humor and plenty of inside jokes and it's a great game for an inexperienced gamer. Most kids will be able to enjoy and play the game as well as adults. The only negative is that I can't play it for very long sessions because it can get a little boring. There must be something about the repetition that makes me sleepy. I paid full price for the game and it's well worth it.
  
  
• Great family game
  By ARXGKOCF0G0UB on 2008-08-16
  Star Wars Lego - Complete Saga is a great family game. My wife and I really enjoy playing cooperatively, and it doesn't have the blood and guts that would make me worry about our three year old seeing it.
  
  PROS: Extremely fun coop play! Minimal violence. Good graphics and sound. Fun to relive the movies and enjoy the subtle humor.
  
  CONS: Camera position is sometimes annoying. At one point, we became stuck with no apparent way to get out (had to restart that section).
  
  OVERALL: I would recommend this game for family play. I'd imagine it would get boring solo.
