A solid shooter for the DS, great for Star Wars fans, despite a few niggling flaws.
User Rating: 7.5 | Star Wars: Lethal Alliance DS
Lethal Alliance is a solid shooter for the DS, it utilises the DS's unique functions, perhaps not as well as some first-party games, but the mini-games and sub-missions are hugely improved by the stylus controls and second screen. The targeting system on the DS version can sometimes be tricky; you may not be able to lock-on to the target that you want to; but with practice it is easily overcome. The graphics aren't as good as the PSP version, but are still considerably good considering the DS's capacity for graphics.
This game is probably not suitable for casual gamers or for younger gamers. Die hard Star Wars fans will love this game, and shoot-em-up lovers will find it to be an enjoyable distraction.
Don't get your hopes up too much about this game, it's not a masterpiece, but it's a step in the right direction and hopefully Ubisoft will learn from their mistakes in their next game.
