While it does have a lot of variety, the core gameplay feels incomplete.

Gameplay - The controls aren't very good, and considering all of the jumping around and dodging you have to do, this can be quite frustrating. You have a few weapns, a blaster, a heavy blaster which fires more blasts but runs out of ammo faster, a sniper rifle which the use of can get you killed, and a grenade launcher that is quite useful.....if the game ever gave you enough ammo for it. Plus you get a psionic like knife. There is however, plenty of variety, as you get sneaking sections, some on rails sections that are nifty, and a couple of turret sections. Your little robot Zeeo is kind of fun though. He can stun enemies, slice dataports, and cause huge electronic surges that take out your enemies. (not to mention turn certain crates into mines. Hehe.) There's some platforming, but its never challenging except for the bad controls. Grahpics - Everything looks ok. There are a couple of tears here and there, but nothing too bad. (or great) Its a little bland to be honest. Audio - Great soundtrack. It is Star Wars afterall. The voice acting is solid. Good stuff all around. The combat is where the sound falters a little and keeps it from standing out. Value - Its a bit short. It won't take you long to beat the game, and there isn't much of a reason to go back. Worth one shot though. Tilt - Ok. Apart from what I said, I did have some fun with this game. Mostly because its star wars, and I did really enjoy running up an taking storm troopers out with the knife. However, this game feels like it just rests of laurels of being Star Wars and doesn't do enough to stand out on its own. A little more tweaking and it would have been pretty good.
