Terrible. Just plain terrible.

I'm not sure if the developers of this game ran out of time, money, imagination, care or all the above, but this was one of the worst games I have had the misfortune of playing in quite some time.

Game play is copy / pasted from the first. Characters are stale and uninteresting mannequins. Bosses are ridiculous monstrosities with silly fight mechanics. The zones (all 4 of them) are boring and dull. Force powers are yet again wildly over the top. The repetitive enemies are moronic Neanderthals. The controls are wholly inconsistent. And the "story" is so shallow and generic it makes the Twilight series seem like an ocean of complexity.

About the only highlights were the score (but, hey, it's Star Wars), the first action sequence where you are "falling" through space and some of the visuals were pretty appealing.

But other than that, there is nothing. Don't buy this game. It is TERRIBLE.

Guybrush Threepwood was cool though.
