Not sure I agree with your assessment here. While I enjoy easy games, I agree there should be enough challenge to keep the player interested.

If you don't mind me saying, Jason, I think this review has issues that are due to a meandering start that Randxian also seems to have had trouble with.

Yeah, I too didn't particularly care for "The game is too easy", followed by "The platforming is too hard."

It doesn't matter that you're playing as an all-powerful Jedi. As we know from the films, Jedi warriors die, particularly against the enemies that they're facing in this game. If the game is not difficult--and it isn't--then that's out of line with the reality that Lucas and company presented in the second and third episodes (and likely the cartoon series itself, which I've not seen).

Well, we sort've agree. The end result is good, as a whole, but I still think that particular grouping of paragraphs is awkward.

After reading the review, I don't see an issue with the parts about difficulty. It sounds like the game is insultingly easy, but there are some jumps that can kill you just because of bad design. Those are times when I prefer to use the word "challenge". A game can be difficult but not challenging, usually as the result of poor design.

Spoiler: the new star wars movies were terrible.

Episodes 1 and 2 could've been better. Episode 3 is awesome. The Clone Wars is good for what it's worth. Yeah, The Clone Wars is not a great movie, but it does have a lot of action and the Jedi kicking ass, which is all that matters in my book.
