Review: At first a bit perplexing, but controls work exactly to the games needs. Suitable for beginner to advanced RPG player, with a choice of having characters, game actions and leveling up automated or choose to manually create. The storyline of the game is easy to get drawn into, as there are many choices to be made. Different choices will bring about different results and moving the game in a new direction. The non-linear storyline provides a great freedom of movement, so your course can change at any moment. Rather you can choose to visit places, completion is optional as you can proceed in any direction. Star Wars fans will be delighted with the many sequences that the game possesses, from the fight scenes (including light sabers) to the many Star Wars catch phrases in the dialogue. Those who are not Star Wars fans soon will be. Another great game by Lucas Arts, which is sure to become a classic.
