Even with so much of the gameplay clinging to the formula Traveller’s Tales created for its first LEGO game, The Clone Wars offers a vastly different experience that captures the best of both of the LEGO and Star Wars licenses. It’s easily the best LEGO game to date.
If you haven’t played these retro(ish) Star Wars games, today is the perfect day to give them a try.
I am not a big Star Wars guy but I enjoyed Shadows of the Empire on the N64 I found it at a pawnshop one day for $20. I bought it and I still enjoy it from time to time I only own three Star Wars games in my collection Shadows of the Empire and both Force Unleashed games. I remember my grandmother would rent a game console during Xmas she grabbed the N64 and Shadows of the Empire I sat in front of the tv all the time with that game.
Even though I enjoyed it a lot when I was young. That game got destroyed in reviews.
James writes: "It doesn’t seem too long ago that I was reminiscing about the LEGO Star Wars game which birthed a legacy in 2005. As of right now however, it’s time to celebrate a later instalment from 2011, while also taking a look at how it went slightly off-piste in terms of the gameplay and the source of its narrative. I am of course referring to LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, which is full of innovation and probably doesn’t get enough credit for the things it attempted."
LEGO Star Wars 3: The Clone Wars is now available to download through Games with Gold on Xbox 360 and Xbox Backwards Compatible on Xbox One.
I bought this day one. Lego games never disappoint. And I am a hardcore gamer.
I agree - this game is a blast. The 'RTS' levels are great, loving the additional Force powers. Graphics have improved too even better than LEGO Harry Potter (which were really good too)
Can't wait for LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean which comes out in May
