My 12 year old sister got this game recently and we finished playing through all the episodes last night. I gotta say, not many games have the kind of replay value this game has. We were only 33.74% done after playing through every episode once. There's tons of characters and extras to unlock and tons of stuff to find and do. You won't fully complete this game without investing some serious time into it. This game is best played in co-op with a friend or family member. As for me i'm 18 playing with my 12 year sister. It's a lot of fun and it has tons of moments that are funny, just not laugh out loud hilarious. You'll notice that this game doesn't take itself seriously at all. It did get a little boring for me after a few hours but i'm that way with every game. My only major gripe with this game is a horrible camera during co-op. Me and my sister were constantly arguing when we would both try to go in a different direction and the camera wouldn't allow it, more than a few times resulting in one of us falling off a cliff. Speaking of which, you can never get a game over. You just lose lego pieces (a kind of currency) every time. Besides the camera problems, this is a fun game with tons of replay value best played with a friend or family member.
What's great about it: Tons of replay value, fun and addicting gameplay, doesn't take itself seriously.
What's not so great: Frustrating camera in co-op, can get boring after a long play session.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This game is packed with play! Hundreds of unlockables, all 6 Star Wars movies are playable, cute story line using the Lego people, and fairly easy control make this game a winner...especially with kids. If your kids like Star Wars, this will keep them busy for quite a while.
What's great about it: Tons of unlockables, length and content is heavy
I would recommend this to a friend!

Presentation:
I can't really think of anything outstanding about LSW's presentation, but on the other hand, I can't think of any real flaws. Maybe I just can't think...
Ever seen a LEGO set? Well, that's what the game looks like! The characters are all LEGO toys, but they have a full range of motion. On the technical side, the game runs pretty solid at 60 fps. Most of the graphics aren't high-poly textured wonders because they correctly emulate the LEGO toys! Once again, there are no big flaws to speak of.
The audio can be described the same way. The music is taken straight from the films' soundtrack, and the sound effects fit the game well. Characters grunt and jabber, lasers make laser-y sounds, and explosions explode. Once again, not really any flaws.
The game features numerous cutscenes, many of which are humorous. Though the characters never speak, you can always tell what is going on and you'll probably recognize a lot from the movies.
Game Play:
In LEGO Star Wars, the characters are divided into groups. Characters within a group usually have all the same abilities; in other words, the differences are usually only cosmetic. Jedi characters carry lightsabers, can jump high, and can use the force. Jump characters can jump the highest of all the characters. And so forth.
During the game, your party has all the character types necessary to complete the level. Levels are progressed through by defeating enemies, pressing switches, completing puzzles, etc.
Probably the best feature of the game play is the ability to play two-player co-op mode. This makes the game a lot more fun, since you must work together to finish levels.
Game play mechanics are generally decent, but the levels in which you pilot aircraft are very bad. The spaceships are hard to control and just a little too fast to really feel like you're playing and not just button-mashing. Thankfully, ship levels don't usually appear more than once every 5 or 6 stages.
The controls are simple and easy to use, but in a sense, disappointing. One of the biggest hype points for the Wii version was that you could control the lightsaber with the Wii remote. While that statement is technically true, the control is limited to simply swinging the remote in any direction to make the character attack, as opposed to controlling your lightsaber's actual movement and position. Swinging the remote has the same effect as pressing the B button.
Value:
LEGO Star Wars is loaded with extras. Each level has extra goals, like collecting a certain amount of LEGO money, finding secret bricks, and collecting all the pieces of a LEGO vehicle kit. Although that adds a lot more playing time, the game can still become boring. LSW has TONS of unlockables--characters, levels, vehicles, easter eggs--that you can buy with the LEGO money you collect in the levels. I would estimate the total play time needed to unlock all the levels and accomplish every objective to be about 75 hours. Yeah. So if you're trapped on a desert island with just this game, it'll be at least a few days before you have to do the exact same thing over again. The two-player co-op is a great value booster, and there's also a battle multiplayer mode.
Intangibles:
It's LEGOs... come on! This game has charm, and I can't remember the number of times I saw things in this video game that made me laugh or drop my jaw.
Overall:
If you like LEGOs, or Star Wars, or just funny games with loads of extras, this is the game for you.
What's great about it: Fun, Unique, comical
What's not so great: Slightly repetitive
I would recommend this to a friend!

This game is amazing. You get to control the lightsaber with the wii controller and you can control your lego star wars characters also. This game is great and deserves a five star.
What's great about it: You control the lightsaber and characters

This game is really best played by one player. It is an adventure game with lots of puzzles to solve and enemies to dispense with. This game is also best played twice: once to get through the cuteness of the story; and a second time to get all the bonuses (bricks, unlockables and whatnot). After that, it doesn't really stand up to a casual gamer who just wants a quick fun game. The game is relatively easy with unlimited lives and simple, repetitive puzzles (hence 3 stars for "Challenge")-- sure I would get stuck at a couple of particularly hard puzzles, but I eventually get through it.
That said, I really love this game -- but maybe that's because I am a Star Wars fanboy at heart. In our household there are two types who play this game: 1. Me - a 34-year old kid who wants to relive the Star Wars movies, and who enjoys adventure games; and 2. my two nephews, ages 8 and 9, who just want to destroy everything in sight.
What's great about it: Everything! Especially for a Star Wars fanboy as myself.
What's not so great: Doesn't really hold up to repeated playing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good enough game for my 5 yr old son. He loves Star Wars and sword fighting with light sabers so this game pretty much lives up to both of those requirements. Good soundtrack, easy to play even for young kids.
