One of the most under-rated Star Wars games ever made.

There has been a lot of people that found this game to be either way to hard or way to boring. I found it to be neither. Not to say that the game does't have it's faults but it brings out the best and the worst in any hard core action adventure gamer. The controls are slightly quirky but I caught on pretty quickly. The opening fight with a beast in a gladiator chage serves to hone your basic fighting skills in one fell swoop. Personaly I thought it to be a very good way to start the learning curve. Weed out the weeklings early I say. But once you escape the cage you litteraly jump from the frying pan into the fire. If you can't time your rolls in this game it's going to be immpossible for you to progress. It's just that simple. The dual pistols react very well and can shoot extremely quickly in the right hands. The story itself revolving around what took place between Episodes 1 and 2 is actually quite superb. The only thing I wish is that Almari Bosa was Asajj Ventress instead. Almari is pretty much the same person seeing as she's a twin lightsaber weilding demoness. She certainly gives you a hard time as the final boss. Let's face it twin pistols vs. a Sith with two lightsabers is laughable at best. But if you do complete the game it's totaly worth the effort to see the final movie. One the very cool aspects of this game is the bounty system. Using the identification visor could have been made easier to access, but giving you the choice as to kill of capture added a very immersive aspect to this game. I find it rather ammusing that several people complained that this game is immpossible to beat without cheat codes. Puh-leez. I agree that it's a pretty hard game but definitly not immpossible. Invest a little more patience in it and you'll be fine. All in all I found this to be a very rewarding action adventure game. Maybe repetitive to some. But exhilarating to others. If anything it should give you a whole new respect for a character that we barely got to know in the Prequal Trilogy. If you are a Fett fan, PLAY THIS GAME!!
