An extremely underestimated game that should of deserved a lot more of attention !
This is how many people think when wanting to buy this game. They rely too hard on other people's opinions, and don't create an own opinion on this game. This game is just plain fun, whether you're a star wars die hard fan or a person who's saw a movie and got interested in Star Wars. Even people who can't stand the whole Star Wars Universe hype will like this adventurous, charming game !
The graphics are, as most players have noticed, superb ! I haven't seen these sort of cunning graphics on my Dual Screen for quite a while, and was extremely surprised that they're so innovative and detailed. The frame rate can get a littly moody sometimes due to glitches though.
The sound is directly taken from the star wars movies, music as the Imperial March or sound effects like the old 'n trusty lightsaber. It is yet a shame that there's no voice acting.
The gameplay is quite magnificent, you can explore giant levels packed with action while shooting or lightsaber swinging your way through. People who say that this game is easy, are wrong, to unlock True Jedi status in every level is hard as hell due to some glitches that can make your life miserable. Yes, there are quite some glitches, but don't worry, any intelligent player will avoid these glitches instead of walking into them time by time and complaining. Although, some glitches can't be avoided, like the sandbox level, which seems to be one big glitch. And unlocking is what makes this game fun to play, there are dozens of things that can be unlocked, and you'll spend at least 25 hours doing so. It also has a replay value, to play with your unlocked characters in the levels you had previously unlocked, but with those unlocked characters, you can open new parts of that level. Conclusion : Lego Star Wars II is a neat game that will entertain everyone who is yet a tiny bit interested in the adventurous universe of star wars, but also other players. Don't mind all the bad words about glitches, they aren't half as bad as told.
