Lucas Arts has failed us all with this "could have been great" game. The game is fun, interesting, and very Indiana Jones. But sloppy graphics, severe clipping, restricted gameplay, technical issues, and a plethera of invisible walls have ruined an otherwise fun gaming experience. (FYI: Invisible walls are when you try to jump or run somewhere, but you are unable to, simply because the game doesn't want you to.) Invisible walls remove a lot of strategy from the game. You see a ledge you want to jump onto, but it turns out the programers want you to see it visually, but don't want you to go there. So.. you get shot to pieces trying to jump on a ledge you can see.. but can not actually stand on. This happens constantly, but it shouldn't in a day when games can allow you great freedom and feel very real because of that freedom (try Halo, or Lucas Arts Jedi Knight II). Throughout the game you get the feeling the programers either gave up, or ran out of money. The potential is there, but not realized. They definately did not finish their debugging, and you will have technical issues playing it. I have had to shut off the music in the game, as it was killing my frame rate. That in itself shows you that the game was released unfinished. Shame on Lucas Arts. Shame on The Collective. We expect better from both of you. I wish I had rented and spent my 50 bucks on a game I would play more than once.
