Sound
If there is one thing Star Wars always does well its sound and this game is really no different. The trademark Lightsaber swoosh is here and in full force as well as every other sound you know and love from the Star Wars universe. The music is almost movie caliber as well, some of it is in fact from the movie and some of it is original score mixed with previously recorded music from the movie, all in all a good mix. The voice acting however isn’t quite up to snuff. You would think since Lucas owns Lucas Arts and Star Wars he could get the voice actors in to do some voice over's but this isn’t the case. Some sound-a-likes do the voice acting and while it isn’t a bad job you can easily tell.
Gameplay
This game is just fun, plain and simple. There are a ton of combos at your disposal and you unlock more as you progress. A is Jump, X is quick attack, Y is hard attack and B is a sort of stab move. The better you are at combos the more points you get, and with points you can unlock more moves to use. The system was blatantly stolen from the Lord of the Rings games by EA but it works so who cares? Along with the combos you have some grapple attacks and the normal array of force powers at your disposal, all of which you must use to beat certain areas of the game. I can’t really talk much about the level progression itself because ill spoil it for you, this is a very story centric game. This is some replay value to be had but not much, you shouldnt take more then 6-10 hours to complete this game and you will only wanna play through maybe 2-3 times. I also must warn you that this game spoils the movie so you might want to wait before you play it.

This is a must own game for Star Wars fans and even quick action game fans in general. It’s not as deep as say Ninja Gaiden but it is good old fashion fun that deserves your attention. Be warned it contains MAJOR spoilers so you might want to wait…or if you're like me and can’t then by all means play this thing to death. It might be a rip off of EA's Lord of the Rings but it's honestly a better game. Now let's just hope Episode 3 brings Lucas his redemption, if this game is any clue then it just might.
