The iPhone version is actually quite entertaining. Can't wait to get into the story of the proper version this weekend

Played it for a bit this morning .. well it looks good but I get the feeling this is hardly going to be an epic, I got through the first couple of missions really quickly, and the mission select screen doesn't show too many more. Incredibly linear too, you can't really go wrong, so unless the gameplay mixes up a bit, it will get boring fast.

As for the story, well it's not really grabbed me yet. Guess I'll see over the weekend how it pans out.

played through the first few missions, its pretty straightforward borderline boring to be honest

i still love it because its star wars, but the storyline doesnt appear to be as good as i thought it would be and its very very samey gameplay wise.

i suspect itl get better, ive been playing for ages and am on the 3rd/4th mission? the storyline doesnt seem to have kicked off yet its just vader sending me on mission after mission after mission.

dont know how many levels there are alltogether but ive been playing for about 3 hours.

at least it throws acheivements at you like candy haha

Got the Wii and PS2 versions yesterday. The Wii one actually makes it worth jumping around the living room waving your arms about like a lunatic... Tried the PS2 version next and I'd go with most others opinions, on a normally controlled console this game could get a bit samey but like Frantic-Baz i'm only a few levels into it.

In short, the Wii adds a completely different (and strangely good) dimension to the gameplay, more than making up for the drop in graphics quality from the XBox and PS3.

(although I may change my tune when my 6 year old starts handing my ass to me on a plate in duel mode - he had already completed the kashyyk level faster than me before I came to work this morning!).

I have looked at the reviews, seen afew of your comments and I dont think it's worth my money at this time. It's almost October. There are much better games coming out.

Apparantly the story in the game is really good when you get into it. The gameplay, no so much.

Judging my the game time, achievements and general storyline i reckon im on the last level. Its an alright game really but was probably (as always with star wars games) over hyped.

I've only played the demo and was quite impressed. Well not so much impressed, but content with throwing storm troopers at each other as well as the odd tie fighter for good measure, but I was concerned that it would be a short repetitive affair and going by whats been wrote here I may be right!

Think I will wait for some more views before taking the 40 squid plunge!
With the thought in my mind that I could always dust of KOTOR 1+2 for some propaa star wars (story line) bizzle, and spend my 40 on something more pleasing (green)!

Well so far i've enjoyed lobbing things about and frying stormtroopers with the force. Upgrading your powers/combos as you go along is nice and the fact you can pick up different bits to upgrade your lightsaber is cool as well. I've heard that's actually quite a short game but im still enjoying it!

I have a feeling I'm near the end now. If it wasn't Star Wars this game would be nothing - boring repetitive levels (go this way, kill a boss) with a lackluster and short story.

Its an enjoyable enough game but I don't think its worth £40. I've been playing Infinite Undiscovery quite a bit more.
