Its a REALLY immersive game which blends Tomb Raider-like action and the Star Wars universe together.
If you liked the movie, then this is a must buy. There is an arsenal of weapons at your disposal or use your trusty lightsaber to dispatch enemies or dodge blasters.
The game's difficulty is just right where carefully timed acrobatics jumping from platform to platform, making good use of covers to avoid blasters, destroying hundreds of battle droids and not to forget its dialogue filled game play never gets old! Throughout the game, dialogues can be chosen form a list when interacting with inhabitants or game characters to achieve objectives or simply to provoke enemies and watch their agitated reactions.
The non linearity of the game wherein the open world system is used (example prodding every inch of Mos Espa, escorting VIPs to safety, making deals with Watto or just roaming the world makes the gameplay varied) coupled with fun dialogue interactions make the gameplay all the more interesting unlike titles like the Jedi Power Battles or the recent Star Wars Episode 3 PS2 game which focuses too much on lightsaber action which fails to truly immerse the player and induce a form of appreciation of the Star Wars universe as the story unfolds.
My only problem with this game is the fact that, there isn't much use of Force Powers (you can only use the Force push), for example Force lightning, Force grabs,or other Force-imbued powers like the ones used in Star Wars Episode 3 for the PS2. Other than that, I truly enjoyed the game.
