Quality Game
I bought Star wars episode three in preparation for seeing the film however it does follow the plot and has clips from the movie. I would suggest to anyone that plans to buy this game wait until after the film because otherwise it will spoil the film. It must be said though that this is certainly a challenging game with difficult lightsaber battles with the likes of General Grievous. Unlike other games this actually allows you to have proper duals with a lightsaber. So enjoy this game you must and may the force be with you!

Great but too short
I saw this game advertised and went straight out to the shop to get it, and I wasn't too disappointed. The game has great graphics and amazing gameplay, but I was not too happy about the length of the game - there are only 17 levels, which are pretty easy even on hard mode. Although the story is short, the game's durability is increased slighty by the unlockable two player missions and one player bonus missions. However, there are not many of these and they get repetitive. A good feature though is the two player vs mode where players can have one on one lightsabre duels, or player one can practice their lightsaber skills against a hand picked CPU opponent. There are also a wide range of selectable characters in vs mode - most of the opponents with lightsabres met in the story are in there, including two special characters...
I managed to complete the story mode in about two days, but it is definitely a worthwhile buy if you're not on you're PS2 as much as me!
Overall, the game is great, but I feel that Lucas Arts could have done more with the story mode, but the extras make up for it.

Lightsaber fun with a hint of the dark side
Players of the lord of the rings, the two towers or return of the king will easily recognise the game play. A mixture of button bashing and skill assignment between levels; note this is not a bad thing. The gameplay is fast and furious and lots of fun as you slash and use your force powers to make your way through the game. You play as either Obi-wan or Anakin and each character has a definite play style.
This is a very enjoyable game, game play is often fast and furious and the graphics and engine smooth even when surrounded by dozens of enemies. The likeness are good and while not the real actors the voices are by no means cheesy, be warned though the game is true to the film and you will discover the plot if you play this. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Over all a fine game, while criminally short there are several bonus missions to be unlocked which does give it a slightly longer life.
A must have for fans and a fine addition to any action gamers collection.
