Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

What an absolute amazing game. Lego Star Wars on ps2 and then the original trilogy I played over and over again and then the complete saga came out and I played that over and over. And I always wished for another. Dream come true.

Two little nits to pick. One, this has the usual, fantastic split-screen coop mode of Lego games, but no online multiplayer (as usual, but still).

Two, it has LOTS of Star Wars characters to choose from (we are talking hundreds), but no character customization to create your Jedi/Sith/scoundrel and roam around the galaxy (kind of lousy, since other Star Wars Lego games had it).

Having gotten those complaints out of the way, the game is charming and well-done, a humorous re-telling of the nine movies (playable out of order if you like) with the really fun free-roam mode, which allows the player to visit all the locations unlocked in the game to explore planets, complete non-story missions and search for collectibles.

It's weird that the one Star Wars game including some kind of open world sandbox with over 20 planets to visit, space battles when you travel from a place to another and different character classes with unique gameplay... is a Lego game.

Really says something about how sadly underused the license has been in the last years. I mean, I liked Fallen Order, Squadrons and the Battlefront games, but where's the Star Wars equivalent of Skyrim?

Still, this scratches that itch to a little, brick-y extent. A nice game, crafted with passion and care.

This game has it all. If you want to roam around the galaxy fighting star-destroyers and exploring planets, this is the game for you. The missons are special with voice acting and a full story. This is the ultimate star wars game!

The year is 2005 and I have been invited last minute to my kid neighbor's birthday party. My old man and I run to Walmart to try and find anything a 7 year old kid might love and what do we find but Lego Star Wars: The Video Game; the hit game that's been out for less than a month. I begged him to buy it because I knew it would be the best gift at the party and since it was a sleepover, this game would surely give us the adrenaline we needed to survive the night.

This is a fond memory rooted in my childhood and I spent many of my adolescent years enjoying the Lego entries; my top two being Star Wars saga and Harry Potter 1-4. Now, in my possession, are all 9 games of the Star Wars series remade to perfection.

There's so much to talk about that I could honestly write out an essay of why this game is amazing, so all I'll say is this: If you have any gut feelings about buying this game, buy it. The delay was worth it and it's worth every cent of its price. I'm now 23 years old and my entire Friday at work consisted of me being excited to go home and play this game. I haven't shaved, showered, and I'm surviving on chicken noodle soup and hard boiled eggs. Life is good. Get this game.

Well what can I say... Having grown up playing the first ever Lego Star Wars game, even playing the demo on PS2 extensively, I didn't expect much considering in my opinion Lego games have gotten progressively worse since the Complete Saga was released. How wrong was I! This game is an absolute masterpiece, something to behold for the ages, the seamless profession from level to level in different sort of "home planets", the flying of ships in "space areas" the choice for players to start where they want on any of the 3 trilogies. The abilities/classes given to the 380 (that's right 380) characters unlockable within the game.

It is quite astounding the effort that has gone into this game, the graphics are incredible, the voice actors are incredible, everything is incredible!!!! Buy it!!!!
