Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008 by Nick Maunders
Well if you’re a Star Wars fan then it looks like 2008 is the year for you. With the Star Wars Clone Wars film in cinemas and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed heading on to the Wii and numerous other consoles nothing else could be better. Or could it? Yes it could because yet another two Star Wars games are set for release in November. Well 11th November to be precise. However not everyone will get to play them. If you have been a Nintendo follower for the last couple of years then you will claim the prize. Why? Because the two new games are exclusive to the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS respectively.
The first of the two games is Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels and this game will be exclusive to the Nintendo Wii. As by the name you can guess that this game focuses on lightsaber duels which is brilliant because only on the Wii can you really get that much in depth with controlling a lightsaber. The game will consist of fights from the film which of course you have to play through. Characters that are confirmed to be in game are Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and many more. ONM (Official Nintendo Magazine) have said that “It looks good but we don’t know how many people will want to pay out for two lightsaber games in the space of a few months.” That is an excellent point. Would you? I know that I would but at the moment it is still too early to see how the game will unfold. Who knows it could be better than Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
The second of the two games is Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance. This game is exclusive to the Nintendo DS and this game is a more of a strategic game than other Star Wars games. You have to solve puzzles, defeat enemies and accomplish tasks. The game can also be played cooperatively via the Nintendo DS’ Wi-Fi connection.
For ages there hasn’t been a brilliant Star Wars game, then suddenly there are 3, it seems a bit unreal but hopefully these games will be brilliant. The only thing to do is wait.
