Like almost all Star Wars games, it is short, yet still is worth the while. If your a fan.

I'm talking in the view as a Star Wars fan. Although if your not a fan, you may not like it as much as a fan, you might give it a six or seven. In the eyes of a non-fan, some one would be approached with a shooter that allows a creative sort of set-up. While playing, when you die you can choose from set of five or six different classes. The possibilities aren't endless, but do allow for a switch up of things. So if you died while being a regular trooper by a tank, you can come back as a missile launcher, heavy type class, to go and help your people. It also is creative in how you can win. You can win by killing everybody, or by capturing all the command posts, much like a capture the flag type of set up for the whole game. Which can get repetitive. Although the story isn't much of anything, just going on worlds through clone troopers or droids, fighting your way through each level, which is an utter snore. Really play the story if you have nothing else to do. The co-op is fun. That's the only reason I keep the game. For the single player or co-op. By that, I mean that in the single player you can go to any world with any group. That and galactic conquest in single player are probably the funniest portions of the game. Choosing where ever you go allows variety. So you can make a game list where you start off on Tatoonine, and end up on Naboo. And you can do this with the droids, Republic, Storm troopers, or Clone troopers. The Galactic Conquest portion is extremely fun. Here it is pretty much a chess game, every time a pawn attacks another, its a full fledged fight. There you can also purchase upgrades to win, like the help of a Jedi or Bounty Hunter, and can play alongside characters from the Star Wars universe. Then all of this can be played alongside or against a friend. And its always fun to see who can beat the other on a round of chess. The graphics are usually good, sometimes are just boring or disappointing, like on Hoth where you are on a crappy little map, and not a whole, full fledged map. The music can be very good, or after hearing the Storm Trooper theme after a long time can be very annoying. So, this is one of those shooters you can like the franchise to like the game, or you can just jump in and love it. It's just up to who you are and what you like. But I still like the second and the psp ones more.
