in everyone rating this game when no-ones played it because it isn't even released yet

its got 82% review already and it might be a terrible game

And you don't think you've messed it up not by giving it 0 stars...... (yes I know I've just done a similar thing but I am not the one complaining here so that's irrelevant..)

Polar1 from Currie , 23/09/2008

Have been waiting for this game for ages now and as soon as the demo was available for download on marketplace i was pleased that it doesn't disappoint. This is a must buy for any star wars fan and is clearly the best star wars game to date. Graphics are great and controls feel good. Finally to have the power of the darkside at your disposal you'll just have so much fun dispatching anything that gets in your way!

Rated - 0 starsAwful, just awful

oasismark from Sheffield , 25/09/2008

All i can say is..... WOW!

What an awful game they have made!

I have just had to turn if off after about 3 hours of play, its just so badly put together.

Visuals and sound are superb, cos its star wars, levels look amazing, but take away the star wars sound. images etc, its an awful psone game.

My gripes...

Why can a powerful jedi knight and Darth Vaders aprentice, be killed by a robot with a stick?

Why are the loading times so long between levels? GTA can render a huge metropolis without loading, if you get killed within 10 seconds of a level, it takes a full 15 secong loads to get going again!!!

All this talk and demonstrations about DMM!!! why is it only used to open doors, or bend big planks into walk ways?

It may have well just said 'press X to open door'

Why does it always show you what to do?

Juno ' Hmm how are you gonna get inside the ship?'

Cut to a shot of a glowing door with a huge handle on it.

Why button presses on the boss battles?

I think there was some good cenematic fight sequences, in the game, but i didnt see then cos i was watching for which button i should press????

Why stop the game to level up? talk about killing the atmosphere, just auto level up if your gonna do it, long loading times again spoil it.

Awful camera, it should aim at what your looking at to assist with using the force powers. most of the time i was aiming off screen at where i thought enemies were.

They shouldn't have levels where you can just fall off a walkway and die, your suppose to be all powerful, it kills the illusion your a powerful jedi.

This game was suppose to be about 'kicking someones ass with the force' but oh be carful you dont fall of the walkway my jedi master!

Absolute rubbish smothered in STAR WARS TM to trick you into buying it.

Im just so glad i rented it, and can send it back
