I probably wouldn't mention anything about the 3 Death Stars super glued together to George Lucas. He may end up using that for his next game.
oh God no ....

I don't understand why 14 year old boys like Justin Bieber get some much criticism on these boards when George Lucas is a 60 year old man who has spent the last 30 years of his life shoving a totally shit franchise down our throats.

WILL STAR WARS NEVER DIE? There are like 4 million episodes of Star Trek and we hear fuck all from them except a movie every 5 years. With Star Wars, a franchise based on 2 decent films, we have a game, a movie, a dvd, a book, a comic released every damn week it seems.

I wanted to play it just to play through as Guybrush.
Yeah, how do you play as Guybrush exactly?

Yahtzee is on a roll again!

Fallout New Vegas last week, now this. Great reviews from a great critic. Notice I said critic not reviewer. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.

No Black Ops? D'awww... anywho, can't say I care too much about this game. Just recently was given TFU1 (friend bought it for me for $6, because why not) and it doesn't seem too bad...then again I've put maybe an hour into it. Meh, never been too big of a star wars fan...the movies (all THREE of them) were all excellent (RotJ less so than the others, though) and like you said, KOTOR was, too. I'd also say the Battlefront, Republic Commando, and Jedi Knight games were all pretty good-great, too, but that's a matter of opinion. Star Wars is still alive for me, but that's really more because I refuse to acknowledge any of it that annoys me.

I wish I didn't....but I have to agree with pretty much every point he made.

Repetitive, unchallenging, and WAY too damn short.
And just like Episode 2, if we cut out any inference of the annoying 'love interest' angle (yeah yeah...we get it.....you HAVE to find her)....I might have hated it less.

There was a few bright spots.....like grabbing a Tie Fighter out of the air and crushing it like a tin can. But even that got boring after a while.

Hopefully all Jedi in the new Star Wars MMO are as powerful as Starkiller here.....
Cuz a couple of thousand of these demigods running around are gonna completely sink the franchise in the first week of launch.

Do you have to defend the prequel trilogy and all the other garbage Lucas has spewed out at us in the past decade to be a true Star Wars fan? Because I consider myself a fan and I hate over 90% of all Star Wars related media. I thought that's how it was for most fans. Live and learn.

As for The Force Unleashed, the first game was pretty fun even though the gameplay needed a lot of polish and the story was fucking retarded. I was hoping they'd make things work in TFU2 yet I've heard nothing but bad things about it. That's extremely disappointing.

I guess we'll just have to hope The Old Republic is good.

I'm glad I decided to distance myself from Star Wars as a whole after Jedi Academy 1 & 2 (which I actually enjoyed, don't hurt me!), so I wouldn't have to deal with all of this on a personal level, but I still find myself amazed about just how much it has been milked. I'm strugling to even come close to anything else that has been milked this furiously, can you?

(Sigh) I'm sure I will be added to his list of people who he mocks and have no idea what they're talking about, but I love the books. Well, the ones that take place after Return of the Jedi anyway (that makes me a fan boy, doesn't it?). Invincible, the one he showed at the beginning, was one of my favorite ones of this "new generation."

This review was still hilarious though. Thank you for clearing up how someone who DIED at the end of the first game is suddenly alive and well. I was baffled by that, and since I refuse to play these games--or take two seconds to look it up on the internet--that bit of info was appreciated. Kind of shows how bad the writing can be in the Star Wars universe.

I kind of enjoyed the first, mostly for the utter insanity of it (and the fact that force lightning is pretty much the games "oh fuck this" button).

I'm not surprised about this, he absolutly tore the first one into an unrecognizable pile of gorey chunks so the fact that he did the same again is par for the course.


I'd like to know what console he played it on. Did he play it the Wii againg for the sake of consistancy or on 360 or PS3 in another of his ever so subtle attempts to tell the Wii to go fuck it self?
I'd think he would've learned his lesson from buying games for the Wii instead of PS3.

SAMURAI JACK IS THE BEST CARTOON MADE EVER!
I have to disagree. Batman: The Animated Series was the best cartoon ever made.

OT: Why did you even subject yourself to this torture Yahtzee? I mean seriously, if you hated the first, it is a proven fact in the Star Wars universe that whatever comes after will only be a bucket of twice digested dog crap with fanboy packaging. Yes, I'm talking about the second "trilogy" that I wasted money on seeing. (I'm still mad at Lucas for that)

I don't know what games that have come out, but I played the demo for this, and I wish I'd have warned you to stay away from it. In the end though, I laughed anyways so your pain is my humor.

I'm kind of surprised batman and darth vader haven't fought yet. They are both over hyped and boring.

George Lucas vomiting through a pen
LOL, that's a good one. I would like to add my vomit to it as well. I got the first one, but not the second one. After playing the demo for the second one, I was thinking it couldn't fool me again.

I see all these people wishing for another Battlefront, or TIE Fighter, or Dark Forces/Jedi Academy at the least... Why won't LucasArts listen? Why do they keep churning out this rubbish? Couldn't we at least have a two player lightsaber duel mode if we have to tolerate this tripe?

Addendum:

No one blooms that fast....unless its an anime.
Ah touché.

OT: Thank God I'm not the only one who didn't buy into the Attack of the Clones "romance". Heck their offspring had more chemistry. Oh yeah spoiler alert their twins end up kissing in episode four and five.
