Kids love playing a game that lets you spawn (when you die your character comes back). Great for video game beginners, but game play is interesting enough for advanced players too. Bought it for the kids but I secretly play it at night when they are in bed! Shhhh......

The game could not be read by my PS2. I bought this to replace my old copy which could be read, but froze on the first loading screen after choosing a save file. Packaging and book came in good condition, but it fails in being able to actually play.

First off, I would have rated this game as excellent if I had only played it and not the sequel. In many ways the sequel is better in terms of gameplay, cinematics, and level design, but that's more of a complement to Traveler's Tales than anything negative. Lego Star Wars follows the events of Star Wars from episodes 1 - 3, but from a Lego perspective. The levels are broken down by episode, with 17 in all. As your character progresses through the levels you unlock more playable characters, and you all earn money (studs) so when it's all said and done you can have around 80 playable characters, including Darth Maul, Chewbacca, General Grevious (very cool) and even young Boba Fett (rockets not included). The great thing about this game is that it is designed for kids to play. There is no gratuitous violence, blood or anything that a gaming parent would find objectionable for their kids. I played this with my 3 year old son and with little help from me he was able to cruise through all 17 levels in about 6 hours total. The controls for this game are very easy to grasp and there isn't much of a learning curve. The only real drawback to the game is some of the levels are very challenging for little kids and not easy to pass without help. This problem was addressed and fixed in the sequel, and will be fixed in the anthology version coming soon to a PS3 or Xbox 360 near you. One of the coolest things about this game is you can used your saved data and load all your characters into the sequel. Now you can have Darth Maul fight Bespin Han Solo or any other match-up you can think of. If you're looking for a fun game to play for you or your kids, this is a winner, but do yourself a favor and get the sequel as well!Read full review
I bought this game for my 5 and 6 year-old grandsons to play when they visited. I figured they'd just have fun moving the little characters around. Much to my surprise they have quickly learned how to obtain points, how to use "the force," how to change characters to accomplish tasks, and to move from one level to the next. One step builds onto another. BUT don't let the word "LEGO" fool you. My sons and husband also love playing this game with the boys. I would highly recommend this game for family fun. I think 5 years old is about the youngest to really be able to play the game and advance to various levels. I discovered that my 4 year-old grandchildren wanted to try it but just lacked the coordination to successfully maneuver the controls or to grasp the concept of the game. A good buy.Read full review
This game is fun and has some great graphics and funny Lego elements (like when a character dies, the blocks all fall apart). What I did not like about it is that this particular game uses the old style blue disc, in the cd format, like all the original Playstation games used (not many PS2 games use this format anymore). Anyway, I had to go online and find a patch (taping the inside of the disc to make it sit higher in the PS2 machine) in order to get it to play on my original PS2. The game really is great, lots of fun stoyline elements, great character interaction and cute graphics. It is a good addition to any Star Wars fan's PS2 game collection.
