IGN Xbox has absolutely panned the movie game for Episode III. Saying they didn't like it is an understatement, they only gave it a 4.5 overall. We'll have our review up soon, but you should definitely check this clip out.

Go right ahead and not play the singleplayer campaign. Not participating in the occasional turret shooting scene between stumbling into invisible bounding boxes and area restrictions isn't really a big deal. You're not missing much. The only thing a player might actually regret not seeing is the alternate Anakin wins ending, which is amusing for roughly six seconds.

Aside from it being Star Wars, the Episode III videogame features precisely one redeeming quality: it has a multiplayer component. The competitive multiplayer mode can be passably enjoyable in a mind numbing sort of "I huff keyboard cleaner to blow away millions of brain cells at a time" way provided the two combatants involved refrain from corner cheating each other to death. Unfortunately, swinging a lightsaber feels about as empowering as using a foam bat to beat a steel girder. Once you come to the conclusion that the latter activity would be more enjoyable, it won't be long before you realize haphazardly force-tossing exploding crates around isn't the best use of precious life, even considering we have about a 100 years of it to burn.

Cheer up, at least there's a poorly developed cooperative mode that lets players explode waves of lame enemies in succession while trapped in a variety of completely uninteresting ray shielded rooms! That's got to count for something slightly more than nothing, right...? Right?
