After the success of LEGO Star Wars back in 2005, it was inevitable the best Star Wars game would get a sequel; especially since the 2005 game was based on the bad trilogy. I have never been a fan of Star Wars but enjoyed this game. The 2005 game was a completely original game, where you played out the later Star Wars movie in a LEGO environment and as LEGO characters. It was actually quite surprising that it was good, yet a lot excellent and a made a change to see a good platforming game get a good mark in the magazines. It was also made by Travellers Tales, not LucasArts who made the movies (LucasFilm) and some of the other star Wars ...  Read the complete review

I bought this from Play.com when it was full price and the PS2 was still the console de rigeur about 3 years ago, now things have moved on but this game is still surprisingly good fun and still looks pretty great. It is currently £19.99 on Amazon which is quite expensive for a PS2 game, but for its depth, graphics and gameplay, probably just about worth it. This game is based on the original trilogy meaning you can play as any of the original characters, Han, Luke, Leia, Yoda, Chewie etc, you can do all the things they do in the first 3 films, ride AT-AT's, speeder bikes, visit the deserts of tattoine or the icy lair of the hoff-wampers, this game is serious ...  Read the complete review

Lego starwars 2 is an action adventure lego game set in the starwars universe. This is the sequel to the award winning original lego star wars game and this game follows the story of the star wars orginal trilogy. Episode IV: A New hope, Episode V : The Empire Strikes Back and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. This game had less characters then the last game having just over 50 characters though an option is later unlocked to import all characters from the original lego starwars game if a saved game from it is detected on the memory card. Thus the game can have over 100 characters. Also there is a character editor in this game allowing the creation of up to ...  Read the complete review

Difficulty: Very Easy Learning Curve: About 5 - 10 minutes Probably one of the most unique game series out there to date. Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy offers you to play through the good star wars movies (being episode IV, V and VI) in Lego form. Where the whole game is unique, rewarding and very fun to play through many times, with, or without a friend. The gameplay is simplistic, where you'll slap your enemies, shoot them, or sabre them down, however, it doesn't deter from the games fun. You will get the chance to play through several characters from the movies, including Obi-Wan, Yoda, Luke Skywalker and even the awesome Darth ...  Read the complete review

I bought this game in the shop when it could have been cheaper to buy it online (so watch out for that). I haven't played the first star wars game so i can't compare both but i can say that this one has some great graphics and has lots of things you can do. You can unlock characters to play in the game in Free Play and you can change from one character to another by pressing one button, which i found cool as each character has their own thing they can do. You can collect points which can be used to buy characters, extras and even golden bricks. When you start the game you are in a sort of pub and you can can do different things, such as change characters costumes, buy ...  Read the complete review
