After the insanely difficult (at least for me) Prince of Persia, I decided to slum it a little with a relatively easy game before I go back to the serious games. I chose this title because of three words: “LEGO,” and “STAR WARS.”
I think that about sums it up man. Anybody who appreciates beautiful things should get this game. That means people who are into Scientology, Evil and Shih Tzus may not be in the correct mindset to appreciate this game.
If you’re like me, you’d be a rabid fan of the original trilogy. Just ask my wife how many times she finds me speaking the dialogue along with the movies, and I’ll tell you how many times she’s threatened me with divorce, and divulge the real size of my wang to all my friends. Fortunately for me, my wife is a woman, and is therefore always ignored by people, and cannot be allowed to vote, as well as being never allowed to leave the kitchen. Also, my pee pee is HUUUGE!
But I digress.
Like I was saying, my devotion to the original trilogy can only be matched by my disappointment over the prequels. The prequels had none of the charm of the trilogy and made up for it with stupid. And because of the prequels, I didn’t think I can ever go to the Star Wars universe again willingly.
That is until this game came about. Sounds hokey, but this game purified Star Wars again for me. It washed away all the pomp and arrogance the prequel movies managed to taint the whole saga with; and replaced it with loads of fun. Which is really is what the whole Star Wars experience was for me.
Anyway, since the Youtube clip below pretty much sums up everything you need to know about the game, I’ll shut up now.
If I put myself up for adoption, will you take me in as one of your own and rename me “Jean-Pierre Araos” so I could call you “Mon Papa” and we’d trade manly, mustache-accentuated guffaws as we play this game everyday until the wee hours of the morning? Is Darth Maul in it?
Hells Yeah Darth Maul is in it! Once you’ve beaten him, you can play him. In a non sexual totally hetero way.
Which is the complete opposite of what will be done to you if we do adopt you. *WINK*
Never played Lego Star Wars. Seems like fun though. Love that silly cantina music. And the prequels weren’t that bad. Vader’s NOOOOOOO ruined it for me though.
P.S. Never talk about Star Wars in front of your woman. Unless you wanna turn her off.
Well maybe they’re not THAT bad. But less re-watchable than the original trilogy. I’ll probably watch Episode I and III again. But not Episode II.
