Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles

"The best Star Wars game."

Star Wars Jedi Power Battles is the best PlayStation game you can buy. Especially for two players. This is Lucas Arts best game.

Story: 9/10 The story is based on Star Wars:Episode I. You are one of 5 jedi knights who must bring peace by defeating the Trade Federation. The story is slightly different from the movie but is still great. You go to different planets of the Star Wars galaxy defeating Trade Federation enemies. The story is good, and is a lot like Episode I.

Graphics: 10/10 The graphics are the best for PlayStation. The backgrounds look real, and the characters look a lot like they do in the movie. The graphics are really good yo be for PlayStation.

Music: 9/10 There are well known Star Wars themes including ''Duel of the Fates.'' There is music that is good wherever you are.

Sound: 9/10 From the hum of a lightsaber, to the shot of a laser, the sound is just fine. There are a few explosions and laser deflections that sound good enough to give the sound a 9.

Control: 9/10 The controls are simple and easy to learn. The circle button jumps and the other 3 buttons are different lightsaber combos. It might take a little bit to master using your force with the R and L buttons. The control are great and very each button is very useful.

Gameplay: 10/10 Jedi Power Battles is an incredibly fun game. You can play alone or with a friend. You can be 1 of 5 jedi knights including Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu, Adi Gallia, and Plo Koon. There are a number of secret characters and levels too. You fight battle droids and other enemies with your lightsaber. You can chop them or deflect laser fire. You learn awesome force attacks that can be used on enemies also. The game itself is not easy to beat. A few of the levels are very difficult to beat. But after playing it a while you should get the hang of them. Jedi Power Battle has cool levels, characters, and secrets for hours of fun.

Replay Value: 9/10 The replay is good because of the secret levels and characters. You can play under 1 player mode or 2 player. The game could get old after a while because of the limited levels there are. But it is fun to play again because it is such a fun game.

Buy or Rent: I would buy this game. The levels might be too hard to get to the end if you rent. You play it over again if you buy so I would try buying.

Overall: Overall: 9/10 A great Star Wars adventure. If you have a PlayStation you should definitely try this. Jedi Power Battles is one of the best multi-player games also.
