Advantages: Good story plenty of options

Disadvantages: Predictable at points

Story

The game is set over 4000 years before the films, although most of the aliens can be recognised from the films, you take on the role of a what seems to be an ordinary Republican soldier during a war between the Republic and the Sith, the imperials.

The game starts of with you waking up on a Republic ship with no memory of who you are or why you are here, and the story starts from here. You have to fight your way of the ship slowly piecing together your memory whilst completing missions and objectives and assisting your friends.

The game takes you to many of the worlds that have previously been seen in the Star Wars universe and some new ones.

Game play

You play in the third person perspective, and although you have your main character as you go along you meet new characters who join your party each one having special abilities to help your mission, at the start of each mission you can decide who to take with you and whilst playing you can select who you want to play as.

All the missions have main objectives that must be completed and they have several sub mission, games that you can complete if you wish.

Every option and move you make decides if you move to the light side or the dark side of the force, this affects how your friends and characters interact with you and the outcome of the missions.

As in most role playing games you earn experience to upgrade your characters and the abilities of the character like new force powers etc.


Controls/Graphics

The controls are pretty easy to use and quite easy to learn, you can do complicated moves fairly easily without having to remember lot of buttons.

The graphics are pretty good and some of the cut scenes are fairly spectacular, and the soundtrack and sound in the cut scenes are of a good quality and are worth watching.

Value for Money

Endless hours of game play in the game you can easily play the game several times and still not have done everything available, even to play through it once takes awhile so is a very good buy and the story is pretty good too.

Summary: Good game, lots of game play and good story
