Consolish to the bone. And it hurts.
[Mild spoilers ahead[ Since I've never played it before or even seen the game being played I was pretty curious especially that some reviews praise the game as being one of the best in the whole SW franchise. Well, that didn't go that well. First the good - the story isn't all that bad even though it's non-canon. The ending however is kinda anti-climactic. The graphics didn't age that badly considering the game age (but the real actor's models are a bit funny looking). Of course the SW music is there. The overall premise of playing "the bad guy" is interesting at first but quickly wears off as you're progressing to the good side (even if for all the bad reasons). The action is also quite entertaining at first but again - gets tedious and boring as you progress through the game. Since your only weapon is the lightsaber, the enemies are more and more resistant so it's getting several hits to kill one stormtrooper. Silly. Even more silly it gets with tougher adversaries - you pound AT-ST walker for half an hour only to split it open with one clean cut at the end. Kinda inconsistent, isn't it? And the worst part - it's a console game port and it feels and shows throughout the game. The controls are clunky - for the most of the game you're throwing stuff around and controls for that are based on a two-joystick gamepad scheme and are poorly translated to the mouse+keyboard controls. The camera is unsteady and choosing your target is not as obvious as you'd want. And controls in the 1-on-1 fights are really annoying. And of course you have those frustrating quick time events - you got your enemy to zero health but you still have to push your buttons in a specific timed sequence or you're stuck in trying to finish him off. Stupid ad hell. And of course the save system which is actually a checkpoint system. Of course it doesn't matter mucn since the game is linear and you have no choices to make (except for small level of freedok when advancing your character). Disappointing
