EXCLUSIVE: LEGO Star Wars Final Impressions

LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is out now at all good retailers, so it's time to take one final look at the game before my full review next week. I played the opening level, 'Battle of Geonosis', taking place in the titular conflict at the climax of Attack of the Clones. The first thing that became apparent was that the scale of the major setpieces has been significantly ramped up from previous instalments, with dozens more enemies appearing on screen and the visuals improved noticeably too! As ever, the opening and closing cutscenes were hilarious to watch, highlights including bets being placed by the Geonosians on the stadium fight and bounty hunter Jango Fett melting Mace Windu's ice cream (yes, really!). If there was one major thing I had to criticise what I've seen so far of The Clone Wars, it would probably be that with so many adversaries and allies on screen at once it occasionally was hard to keep track of everything going on. However, as long as that doesn't continue to plague the game constantly, I can see no reason why LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars won't be the best LEGO entry yet!
