Lego Star Wars III
SCORE: 65
We have thoroughly enjoyed the Lego video games over the years. This concept has reached numerous franchises with varying results. One of the most well known is the Lego Star Wars games. I recently purchased Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars on the Nintendo 3DS. There are some good things about this game, and some not so good things.
Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars looks fantastic. The 3D effects are wonderful in this hand held title. I love the depth in the cut scene movies and the levels. I did have problems finding where certain studs were when jumping off ledges. I also got extremely bored with the violence in Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars. Shooting or light saber slashing enemies is only interesting the first five minutes. After that it becomes a chore. The 3DS version of Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars includes less puzzles and more hack and slashing.
It is easier to get True Jedi in Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars than the home console versions of the game. The music is standard Star Wars that you either love or hate. I suppose some people are indifferent to it. The sound effects also come straight from the Clone Wars television show. Expect a ton of light saber and shooting sounds in this 3DS title.
I purchased Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars for an extremely good price so I feel I got my moneys worth. There are numerous reasons to replay levels after acquiring new characters. Studs can be used to purchase additional content. Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars also includes some funny mini games like Snowball Fights, and Droid Volleyball.
I love how Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars helps players with what to do in specific situations. The right character will flash and a message will explain what needs to be done. This helps move the game play of Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars along nicely. The bad news is while playing the story mode, players must complete all three acts. This can take forty-five minutes or more. Not exactly a hand held kind of time line.
Lego
Star Wars III The Clone Wars opens all kinds of debates here at Family
Friendly Gaming. There is the force in Star Wars which is considered a
religious belief set. The violence is high in this hand held game as
well. The violence is against Legos, and there is a lot of building
things with legos as well. I understand the various opinions about Lego
Star Wars III The Clone Wars. You have to decide for your family if Lego
Star Wars III The Clone Wars is appropriate for your family.
