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..)

A customer from Camborne , 02/12/2008

I was very disappointed, I'm a big star wars fan and wanted to like this game. The story seemed good, the graphics are in the main very impressive. The problem is the gameplay which is so one dimensional, its just a case of using the same moves on the same enemies (and enemies lack any individuality / are poorly modelled) - those enemies are incredibly dumb, they have the AI of garden vegtables. Admittedly the boss fights are better but are generally anti climatic affairs. Using the force is a great novelty for awhile but like the hack and slash part of the gameplay this too becomes very boring. The enemies just feel like endless drones, there is no satisfaction to be had killing them.

Also the game is frustrating at points, I kept just falling off a ledge mistiming a jump and all levels seem to be designed around making hard jumps. Its a lame way for a jedi to die and points to cheap and lazy level design. I was really let down by this title. I even finished the quite repetative Bourne Conspiracy and enjoyed it but I couldn't even be bothered to persist with this until the end. Frustrating, Lazy and above all else boring - I struggle to understand how this scored so highly with reviewers, perhaps because it is pretty enough to get past on its looks. Gameply is nowhere near what we should expect of next gen gaming, rent perhaps - but do not buy. two stars for slick presentation and authentic storyline.
