    I'm not much of a gamer. But I bought a Wii for my kids.

    My wife went out and picked up Mariokart for them (great game by the way) and told me that there is a new Star Wars game coming out and you can get lightsaber part for the Wii controller.

    She put my name on the list for the day it comes out.

    I pulled up "New Star Wars Game" on You Tube and got pretty excited

    i believe you get to play as Darth Vader at one point in the game.


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

    Since this is a Star Wars thread, I'm assuming you meant BattleFRONT 2? Not that Battlefield 2 (PC version only!) isn't good...

    Played the demo and it's very mediocre. actually it's quite aveage but i'm sure a Star Wars fan will enjoy it. My advice is wait (if you can) for 2 -3 months. You will be able to get a 2nd copy dirt cheap.

    Agreed. It is a decent game, but it's nothing new really.

    No way you can be a STAR WARS GEEK. A Treke geek maybe but never a SWG. Everything about starwars is awesome. Meaning episodes 3, 4, 5 and 6.

    The second game was so much fun. They got this one level where it's Jedi vs Sith and all I would do is go around force choking people.

    oh no ep3 is shit. anakins a whiny little bitch and obi wan delivers some of the weakest lines in movie history. amidala went from being a strong leader to an insipid woman who gave up the fight and just died. sure ehr husband tried to strangle her, but come on girl! fight it. and why may i ask does the mother have to be the one to die? first anakin's, then luke and leia's. WHERE ARE THE WOMAN MR LUCAS!!? the story could ALSO have been filled out more. george needs some serious help when it comes to dialogue. i wish hed give me a call. ;):) HOWEVER... the coolest scene in movie history did occur in episode 3. and all you STG know what im talking about. ;):)

    What? You get to see how Luke and Leia came about. Darth Vader is introduced (enough said). And you see where Chewbacca is from. Awesome!

    Yeah the original 3 were pretty good but the latest ones were shit. That guy who plays Anakin is the WORST 'actor' I have ever seen in my life and i've seen ametuer dramatics. George Lucas is a shit filmaker. Did you know he wanted one of the Indiana Jones sequels to be in a haunted house? That was until Spielberg stopped him and said 'Shut up fool, this ain't no episode of Scooby-Doo'

    True story.

    Yeah, and instead, they filled the latest Indy full of UFOs and aliens. That was some crappy, crappy film-making right there.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    well when it comes to indiana jones, lucas is the master. even spielberg deferred to him for editing and the like. its when it comes to directing and writing dialogue that the man sucks somewhat imo.

    i seriously doubt a lucas/spielberg haunted house would be anything like scooby doo. :D

    ......anyway - back to the video game

    I know it's getting mediocre ratings, but I am having a ball with it on the wii.

    my only complaint is the camera angles are jumpy and in the middle of a battle, it's easy to lose sight of the enemy you are fighting.

    My Rating: Cool story, graphics are OK, game is fun.
