Lego Star Wars III is as always a Lego game on the console. It's about playing through linear level in story mode to the so-called in the second round with the corresponding figures in. Free play to find all 10 hidden mini-kits per level. By the way you collect 18 red and 130 golden stones, where the Reds allowed for cheats like invulnerability, etc. care and unlock the golden stones further additions in the game. Whoever finds all 130 gold bricks, allowed to tinker a space cruiser together at the end. Furthermore, 132 figures of the Star Wars universe must be found or bought. So far so nothing really fundamentally new, but the real tant additions leigen here in scope and detail.
So developers Travellers Tales has revamped the Steurung subjective. I personally have the feeling that the characters are no longer to control so "hectic". Crashes of cliffs etc. have become rarer, jumps can be timen better. Was a Lego game actually done after the 2nd playthrough, come here but to the 3 x 6 levels of actual action, as well as 3 bonus levels more game modes to the Lego Star Wars III bestow an unprecedented scale. So there is a bounty hunter missions, where it quite simply comes to find a figure in the level under time pressure. So must be found in the first mission R2-D2 and one errs initially disoriented. It takes a while until you realize that you can flip a switch at the beginning left, can climb with a small figure by the door and thus created the space behind it is the beeping droids.
But that's not all, because Lego goes real-time strategy. Is there in story mode already some levels where you have to with his clone warriors conquer or destroy enemy bases, so the developers have the game abundant Level donated where it goes in this strategy. They built bases with barracks, from which constantly clone warriors march, we demand air assistance to obtain or build a RX200-tanks a gun to defend your base. It is primarily a matter to sweep the opponent off the screen.
I have read in a review that the author has apparently confused with Koop online, because there was no Lego game that brought from home a online mode with him. But there again the co-op mode for 2 players on the screen. This divides now either dynamically, horizontally or vertically, so that should be found for each player of the appropriate mode. And so the game with 2 people on the console is not too short, there is the strategy mode again as a 2-player arcade mode. One controls the droid armies, which provide the other clone warriors, 5 different game modes also once again for sufficient motivation, though here the overview of the split screen but suffers a bit ..
So if you like Lego games on the console, with Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars have to play a more than comprehensive title. But speed is called for, because in May to appear before Lego Pirates of the Caribbean.
