LEGO Star Wars The Complete Saga is a 3D action platformer and you can play in single or mutiplayer. The Lego Star Wars series is the one that started it all combining Lego games with other well-known franchises. At first Lego Star Wars was release in 2005 and it covered The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. It also had a little section from A New Hope. Then in 2006 Lego Star Wars The Original Trilogy was released. It of course covered A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Currently you can’t buy these games individually unless you find an old copy but in 2007 Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga was released and is still available where you get both games for the price of one. The Complete Sage covers the first six movies!

Despite this being the first game to change the landscape of the Lego video game universe it still has everything that we want in a Lego game. There are some small issues here and there with the controls. You think you are jumping in the right direction and you just fall off the side of a cliff but the penalty for dying is not the big of a deal and you do die a lot. The AI is useless; Lego Star Wars is definitely more fun with more people. Your AI attacks but they don’t do any real damage. So if you are building something or attack something else you are always taking damage. This does not happen in co-op or multiplayer because you have someone watching your back and can land a hit.

The main storylines for each game took use between 12 and 15 hours. That will get you almost 30 hours of gaming but there are so much extra things to unlock that you are talking about getting into the 70 hour mark to figure everything out. There are things like X-Wings to unlock and let’s not forget that there are a couple of hundred Star Wars characters to find. There is not voice acting which is a bit of a bummer. We were looking forward to Lego Yoda speaking. Remember this is the first game to change Lego games. There was no voice acting until Lego Batman 2 in 2012. Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga is worth paying $30.00 or under for. That is $15.00 per game since you are getting both trilogies. If you find it under $20.00 it is a MUST BUY PRICE for any type of gamer.
