It is fun. I have it on the 360. It is boring at some points. It is worth the story alone though, if you are a Star Wars fan. this is the only games that is actually considered Star Wars Canon. i have to say it is a 8-8.5. Rent it if you are not certain.

the targeting is absolutely horrendous. That is my biggest complaint.

I tried it on the marketplace, and liked it, but then again, I haven't played a Jedi-like game since JK2 Outcast. It was fun, I may end up getting it just for kicks, but I'll have to see.

I think this is a great game. there are some issues with it (such as targeting) but they are minor and im having an enjoyable experience. but i have always enjoyed a good star wars game. last one i played was KOTR II. guess you have to be a fan to get the full enjoyment out of it. just saying you can play with a lighsaber does it for me lol.

I don't know if being part of the official Star Wars canon is enough to make a game worth playing...all of the books are considered canon, and they almost all suck. Well, the ones I read anyway, I guess I shouldn't paint such a broad stroke...but the only ones I read that didn't suck were the Timothy Zahn books, and even his more recent ones were not so entertaining. I mean, I even heard somewhere that they brought Boba Fett back from the dead, apparently he "escaped" from the sarlaac or something. Puh-lease...who's writing these things, 13-year olds? (I wonder how long I have to wait before someone who likes the books yells at me...)

Not to mention that Lucas doesn't appeear to give a rat's patoot about canon anyway. He wrote enough inconsistencies, or least questionable elements, into parts I-III to make you wonder if he even knows his own universe's canon!

Yea that was from Tales from jabbas palace book. that one has a short story about how he escaped from the sarlaac. that whole book was pretty decent in my opinion.
