Review
Lego Star Wars is never going to win awards for complexity or for being particularly challenging. You can't 'die' (although characters can be reduced to their constituent bricks they reappear shortly afterwards), the puzzles encountered aren't massively complex and the graphics, based as they are around Lego, are suitably 'blocky'. In other words hard core gamers aren't going to rush out and buy this for its stunning visuals or amazing gameplay.
Despite this however, The Complete Saga deserves its stars purely for being exactly what it is intended to be; a fun game that is true to the two things that spawned it, Star Wars & Lego. With controls that are easy to master (and allow for easy two player action), expansive levels that recreate (in Lego of course) all the worlds encountered in the six Star Wars movies to explore and a sly sense of humour, like both the films and the bricks this is fun for all the family. Add in the opportunity to control the likes of Obi Wan Kenobi, Boba Fett, Han Solo and all the other iconic characters from the films, all set to John Williams' classic score, and you have close to the perfect game for children and nostalgic adults everywhere.
There are minor niggles of course, including the fact that there is no manual save option available (you have to wait for the autosave to kick in), which can be frustrating when gameplay has to be interrupted, and some of the levels are so simple they would barely challenge five year old, but they're barely worth mentioning here.
The only real disappointment is how little use the game makes of the Wiimote interface. Shaking the Wiimote will result in some lightsabre swinging, but its very imprecise and is about the extent of the use that the game makes of the Wii's unique controller. Infact the game requires the use of the Nunchuk in addition to the Wiimote, and the controls are pretty traditional in most respects. This is a shame, but almost certainly the result of the fact that the game has been developed for multiple platforms and not exclusively for the Wii.
Get past that disappointment however, and this is still a great game. Yes, it breaks no new ground, but its fun and pushes emotional buttons in ways that are hard to resist
