Star Wars the Clone Wars: Republic Heroes
This game is fun. It’s not awful but it’s not great either. I think kids would enjoy this game. I enjoyed that it has many of the characters from the show with strong performances from all the voice actors. I also liked that it captures the same humor that makes the tv show good family fun. My biggest disappointment was with the graphics which make a PS3 game look like something made for the wii. Far too often the camera view is too far from the action. This game would be so much better if you could be real close to the action. Another disappointment was that the game was too short. The game play is very similar to the Lego Star Wars game but with less content. If you’re going to get the PS3 version I would recommend renting instead of buying or wait until the price drops below $30. Or get the PC version instead.

When I read the first review here I decided not to purchase the game even though my son (13 years old) had downloaded the demo and loved it. However, I did decide to rent it and my son loves it. When I asked him what he likes his reply was “everything.” When pressed to give specific examples he replied that he likes that you can play as so many different characters, and that missions take place between Season 1 and 2 of the show so things are new. I know he likes the fact that in the game he can use his points to purchase “hats and masks” and change his character’s look. This can get quite humorous when the original slender bodies are topped by some outrageous looking hats, helmets and masks. It does make it easy to spot your character though!
He’s been playing this for the last three days so I know he likes it. How does this game compare to other Star War games he has played? He played “The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels” for about 20 minutes before he announced to me that I could return it to the rental store. Thank goodness I didn’t buy that. He really likes the “Lego Star Wars” games and he played them a lot when we first bought them a couple years ago–but at 13 he has kinda outgrown those versions and finds “Clone Wars: Republic Heroes” better. This game is more advanced that Lego Star Wars.
I also read a review that was criticial of the small size of the characters, but for us this hasn’t been an issue. He’s been playing this on a 40-inch LCD screen, so perhaps at half the size this could become an issue.
Bottom line: This is a fun game with an interesting story line and good graphics.

My son and I love being on the same side in this game. This is just the right level of difficulty for a family game. I also should mention that the Prima strategy guide has alleviated frustration once or twice.

Got this the first day it came out. I have only completed the first three levels but so fat this game isn’t doing it for me. The characters are very small (I have 53″ TV) and hard to see. The lightsaber battles are pretty much just tapping the square button and seeing things destroyed. I was expecting a lot more. I would have to say that Star Wars Lego The Complete Saga is 10 times better. My 7 year old son has a very hard time playing this so far (even on the easiest level) and gets frustrated easily. Hopefully after playing this a few more times my opinion will change. For younger players stick to the Lego Star Wars, for the older player get The Force Unleashed.

In the last couple of years videogame fans have been focusing in a lot of aspects to rate videogames, and in my opinion I think most are forgetting the fun factor, which is why I think this game is pretty good. This game takes you back to the core of what a videogame should be, fun and not frustrating. Please take in consideration that I am a huge Star Wars fan. This game is just like the episodes of the show, a side story to the main star wars saga, it presents you with a lot of bad guys a lot of cut scenes to present the story and my favorite, a whole lot of action, slashing and dashing, that is why this game could appeal a wide range of ages, in other words, it is pretty straight forward. More simple than THE FORCE UNLEASHED, plus you get to use clones apart form your main Jedi characters.
In conclusion, if you are a Star Wars fan, like a good simple game every now and then, pick this up and enjoy.
Play On!!!!!!!!!!!
