Star Wars: The Clone Wars Republic Heroes Demo (PS3)
By the standards of licensed children’s tat, this isn’t bad.
There are two missions – a Clone mission which is a scrolling twin-stick shooter and a Jedi mission which feels a bit like Lego Star Wars without the the Lego.
I enjoyed myself, but if a game’s got “Star Wars” in the title then I can enjoy anything that reaches a fairly low threshold of competence.
I suspect that the game’s not nearly as good as I think it is and I just got blinded by battle droids and light sabers.

Another decent Star Wars game. I’ve not played many levels yet – and I’m playing on Easy, which is may have been a mistake – but this seems like a solid, unspectacular tower defense game. But it’s got a Star Wars theme, so that raises it from “good” to “great” for me. I love Star

For Star Wars fans only, this one. Which isn’t to say it’s bad, but that without any emotional attachment to the content it definitely won’t be worth three quid. In many ways an update to the original arcade game, you start out dogfighting above the surface of the Death Star, then fly down the trench,

Well, I wasted all yesterday evening trying and failing to grab a Little Big Planet beta key from Eurogamer, so I didn’t do much gaming. Just before bed, though, I did the Historical Mission set in cloud city, where I had to be Vader fighting Luke. Luke used some moves I really don’t remember from

Yes, I’m a sad old Start Wars geek. As soon as I finished the PS3 version, I turned on the PSP. Same story (if cut down a little), completely different level design, decent controls, horrible camera. I’ve been having fun with it, though it’s definitely not perfect. The camera is a real issue and I

Started and completed in one thoroughly enjoyable seven-and-a-half hour session. Bit buggy, but generally solid. Lots of stormtroopers to kill. No complaints here. (Apart from having to play the PS3 version because the 360 version was out of stock. Still, I assume they’re pretty much the same.)

Played this again this morning, just to check I was right about it first time. It turns out I was. It’s great, chaotic fun, but it’s a bit too hard to choose exactly which object you want to use the force on. If anything, I enjoyed it more the second time through, due to knowing

PURE AWESOME. I mean, it appears to be a good game, maybe not great, certainly more than decent, but it’s also PURE AWESOME. I like Star Wars, you see. And this is very, very Star Wars.

As well as the 360 version, I also played some of the DS version. Unlike last year’s terrible effort, this one works properly and is very playable. A huge amount of stuff seems to have been fitted into the DS cart. The levels are massive, the graphics are great and it sounds just like it

Another game that’s great for co-op gaming with the wife. Like Mario, it looks lovely – but not as polished. Like Mario, it sounds great – but it’s using the movie’s sounds. Unlike Mario, it feels slightly clunky to control and deaths often seem random. That’s not a problem, though. The joy of the game

I have to say that, despite its faults, this game is excellent fun in short bursts. I set up some Instant Action using Random settings and played a couple of quick rounds during Dragons’ Den last night and had a great time. I earned a couple of medals (Achievements in all but name), manned the
