A great game for the DS, but full of many errors unlike the other console versions of the game.

User Rating: 7.4 | LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy DS
The first Lego Star Wars was not as good as this version of the game. Even on the DS. But somehow it recieved a few game awards through out 2005. This game has some of the same features as the first and introduces new stuff as well. The biggest part is, that you are playing through the classic Episodes IV, V, and VI. You take the role of many characters in the game such as Luke Skywalker, Ben Kenobi, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, and many, many more. When you progress through the game, you unlock new characters, items, and earn money to buy something at the Mos Eisley Cantina. You will not only be fighting on foot, you will take control of snow speeders, speeder bikes, and the legendary Millenium Falcon. When you play through the levels, you need to coolect money and cantines. You need to get the maximun to build your Super Kit. If you do everything correctly, you will unlock a mystery object. I won't give it away though.

Although this game had fun stuff in it, you will run into some unfortunate things in the game. The biggest flaw in the game is the camera angle. You will have difficulties shooting, using your lightsaber, and using melee attacks with the poor angle. Another thing is that the lightsaber attacks tend to be very slow and give your enemy time to attack faster. I would have to say that the gameplay is rushed. You will be missing some of the memorable moments in the trilogy like when Luke meets Yoda or when you see Han get cased in Frozen Carbinite. The cut-scenes aren't very funny. Well, not as funny as the ones in the other versions of the game on like the Xbox and PS2. The nes features to game are what make my rating for the game boost up. My favorite is the Character Creation where you combine your favorite Star Wars characters and the CPU comes up with a name depending on the mixture of what characters you used. Another cool new feature is the melee attacking. When you get close enough, click the B button and use ohysical attacks. My favorite melee is Chewbacca's. He jumps on some one and rips there arms off. It is the funniest thing in the game. The last new addition is the Multi-Card play. When you connect with a friend, you can play DS-to-DS and enjoy the fun of Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. A fan of the past game wouldn't want to miss out on a game like this. I recommend it to any DS owner or if you want, buy it for the other consoles.
