Looks like a child’s game, but in fact it’s for everyone
But after I decided to play it, believe it or not it kicked ass.
When the 2nd one came out, I was pretty excited. But does LEGO Star Wars 2 really feel like a whole new game?
Well keep on reading and you will find out.
Gameplay - I found the gameplay to be very fun and somehow challenging. The gameplay got much better then the first one, but really it just feels like the first one. There many characters to choose from and even create your own, but I found the characters in the first game a bit more unique. I really liked the vehicles levels. They were fast paced and very interesting. In a way the gameplay got a little easier since some characters can now dodge enemy fire. But there’s definitely more puzzles to do, and really I never got bored of even one level because they were all unique and interesting to explore. There definitely a lot more extras in the game but once you buy most of them, the game becomes very easy. But basically what makes the gameplay so fun is all the things you can collect, buy and use. So really your going to be spending more times on collecting things. The boss fights were very easy and I think even easier then the first one, but I cant say I still didn’t have fun. Really you’ll find out that the gameplay is basically the same with a lot more extras.
Graphics - Now if you play the first and second game, you will probably say that the graphics haven’t changed. And you’re basically right, but there are actually a few graphical improvements such as the effects. But overall the graphics are not too bad.
Sound - Now the music is what really made it feel like a Star Wars game. Mostly every level had its own music taken from the Star Wars movie. Now you wont hear the characters talk only mumble and so on but I was okay with that since after all they are just LEGO characters. You will notice too that no matter what character you choose, if you push objects they will make the same sound. But again the music is what really gave you that Star Wars feeling.
Value - Well if you want a game that should keep you busy for at least 2 weeks or maybe even a month (depending if you want to get 100% in the game) then sure $60 is worth it. But if you just want to beat the levels, you might as well spend that $60 on a multiplayer game.
So overall I really had a fun time playing this and you will too. Even if your 30 years old. But if you had a choice to either get this game or the first one, I would definitely go with this one.
