I can't believe I'm typing this, but I want this to be real for some strange reason I can't quite identify.

It's called 'fun'.

It's not a dream. It's real.

Just released and there's high quality lampoon? I must have this game.

Holy shit, Spoiler ! This is so mine.

Oh God some of the YT comments are actually pretty good.

"This is the utopia that asshole Luke destroyed. GG Jedi." :p

I'd buy this game purely for this segment.

But as usual, for every good comment, you get at least fifteen to twenty wastes of perfectly good text. Haters always gonna hate, I suppose.

Wait...they cancelled Battlefront III, and we get Kinect Star Wars instead?

Awesome!

The game is pretty cool. The Jedi part is easily the weakest, but it's fun coops with guys getting chopped left and right.

Appalling load times, though. Pretty unforgivable in a kids game in low spec to have 45s load times.

The rancor stuff is even more fun than it looks.

I really really want the next change Lucas makes to the movies to be Han Solo no longer won the Falcon in a card game, he won it from Lando in a dance off.

The dance stuff is just amazing in its terror. It's a fine dancing game, but the songs are either amazingly funny or over the line of doom. Fun regardless.

What is the pod racing like?

It avoids the kinect steering issues by being paired throttles (ie you pull one hand back to turn that way rather than turning an invisible wheel) but I'm complete rubbish at it so I may be doing it wrong. It has powerhouse and attacks etc but I have no idea how to use them.

You'll shit on just about any game anyone praises, but this you defend? No seriously,

Probably because it's fun? Games don't need to be super-hardcore to be entertaining, you know. What is wrong with goofy, un-serious entertainment?

It's already given more playtime and fun than the last several AAA titles I played. My wifeikes it, I like it, all of it is fun (aside from the story mode Jedi thing) and it cost fuck all.

The best part is the nerd rage. I WILL NEVER DANCE and I DRAW THE LINE AT THIS GEORGE!!!!

It's the best SW game for ages and everyone who likes that CG tv show will like it. The kids, anyway.

I love that. "I draw the line at this," did you not see or play either of the force unleashed games guys? Games so bad that actually getting a turd in the CD case would have left a person feeling more satisfied. But no, the dancing stormtroopers are the most terrible thing ever. Also, that Princess in a Battle cover/rewrite thing. Most surreal thing ever. I'm still not entirely convinced this is real and that no one has replace my tap water with LSD. Its almost as good as watching Eurovision.

Hologram Girl is the funniest I think. The songs are so funny it makes the dancing awesome even if it's just a kids version of DC2.

I'm just sad there's no soundtrack album.

And rancor rampage actually gets pretty hard later on; TIE bomber strikes and AT-STs chasing you around. Luckily you can use a flying SITH RANCOR.

What the son of a hell?

Hey Hav I have an achievement called 'Bantha Poodoo' and the lyrics for one song suggests the EU contains a character called Salacious Crumb.

Best game of the year 10/10. Vader can't do it all by himself!

My new highlight - 'Star Wars Kinect is a tragedy on par with Jar Jar', combining fatness with an inability to read to really sell the outrage. It is solid good to me that reviews are mostly negative because a kids and is too much fun for kids and not SERIOUS GRIMDARK SITHLORD for the fatboys.

The original Force Unleashed kicked ass and is probably the best Star Wars game which isn't LEGO Star Wars III.

I lied I have a better one - DESTROYING YOUR MEMORIES ONE DANCE ROUTINE AT A TIME! The rage is so delicious! Ford, Sherry and I are already talking about how the game shakes up commonly held beliefs about the EU background of many SW characters. It's amazing.

Just where did Lando get those Cuban heels? Inquiring minds demand a 500 page novel!

Ford, FU had platforming. I don't like platforming ERGO THE GAME IS POOPS! I draw the line at platforming, George!

Seriously, cuz fuck anyone who doesn't like this game.

Wait, what?
