Just Right

Time Spent:

20 to 40 Hours

The Bottom Line:

"Almost, but not quite"

Generally I would agree with the GameSpot review, although I wouldn't say it is as buggy as they do.

The big thing I would agree with is the lack of guidance, there are times when you are struggling to work out what to do or where to go next. Although this being a Lego game, it doesn't take long to work out, just smash things up and the solution usually presents itself.

The cut scenes are as amusing as previous Lego games, if you have seen the Clone Wars series they may be even funnier (not a prerequisite though)

Some of the new character abilities are interesting, allowing Force users a range attack with the Lightsaber can be fun, and the new Sniper ability is also amusing.

All in all, I would say it is a good addition to the Lego series, but not really a major jump up. Hopefully Lego Pirates will be that big jump in May.
