Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Lightsaber Duels (Wii, 2008)

I must admit I am a Star Wars geek. I grew up in the late 70's & 80's seeing them all on the big screen. When I heard about this game I got excited for two reasons. My daughters and I had just bought a Wii three weeks earlier and we all like to watch Clone Wars together on Fri nights. I guess that makes us all Star Wars geeks! Anyways I was dissappointed in how they blew the opportunity to make this a really great game. With the week controller they could have it mimic your movements of the light saber similer to golf or boxing on the stock game CD. Instead it reminds me of the old Karate game of the 80's where you had to move the two joysticks in patters to achieve a particular move. This game also should have been from the eyesight perspective, kinda like some racing games where you are looking out the windsheild. Instead you are watching your character in full body at all times. It was a let down for me.

They sent it right away. It works . We are Happy. The game is everything my son had hoped it would be. The price was right. we recommend these sellers.
Well done,

Very fun game with lots of action and playable characters. The graphics and background environments are awsome. The game play is a little redundant. You get to do the same things over and over and over again, but with that aside, its still quite awsome. I almost dislocated my shoulder the first time I played as I was swinging my lightsaber wii remote holder like a maniac. By the way, that thing is awsome, pop a few batteries into them and the glow. One glows red and the other glows blue. Turn off the lights and swing those things in a fury of blue and red haze.

Great game, The only issue/problem I had was I wish there were more characters. Fun lightsaber controls, my son/daughter love it.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Lightsaber Duels is the second lightsaber combat game to come out for the Nintendo Wii (Force Unleashed being the first).

This lightsaber game follows the events of the Star Wars Clone Wars cartoon movie and series.

The graphics and game-play are nice, but a bit cartoonish. It was nice that Lucasarts put in background items like droids/clones shooting in the background so that you get some distractions during the battles.

The control wasn't bad. You swing your remote in patterns to get saber combo's in. However, I found that I could just swish around without much control and still beat my opponents quickly.

Gameplay wasn't bad but I finished the story/chapter mode in under two hours.

You can unlock multiple players and such as you play along also.

I'm giving this a 4/5 instead of a 5/5. The reason is that I found I didn't need much skill when I was swinging the remote, only that I needed to be faster then my opponent. :( It was a good workout though but the old elbow/wrist hurt after a while.

4/5

My kids loved this. I have 9&5 year old boys. My 9 year old breezed through it in a few hours and beat it but still enjoys playing with his little brother. I got the light sabors to use with the game and they didn't seem to stay together very well. My older guy didn't really want to use it but the 5 year old really liked it. I bought it because they asked for it for christmas and I am happy I did.

simply amazing. the lightsaber duels or as i like to call the game "the free time destroyer" is just great. i suggest finding the wii glow swords as well. just like peanut butter and jelly, they go hand in hand.

i had a lot of fun with it. it is a fun game with friends, especially with the lighsaber attachments. i recommend it for star wars fans or fans of the wii.

i honestly thought there was going to be more to the game. you fight as 3 people and you only fight 4 people (in the campaign)... so i wasn't too thrilled. i was more hoping it was something like Ben 10 Vilgax Attacks where you go though actual levels completing missions. i guess thats what Republic Heroes is for.

My kids love them. They each have their won color and will play together without fighting. My boys are 6 & 9, perfect size not too small or too large for thier hands. It's a good wii attachment.

I like the game STar Wars: The Clone Wars for the WII. My son love it . Excelent quality. I recccomend to buyt the game and enjoyed. Thanks, Maria A. Rivera

At first I found it a bit complicated. It was hard to remember the combinations of all the fighters. But once you stick to one fighter for a while, you master the moves and it could be fun. You just have to be patient.

excellent seller, good to do business with him, i recomend for future negotiations..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

They did not work. Something was wrong with them and it did have loose parts. Not so happy about this purchase :-( I have not contacted the seller about this, but maybe I should...

The positive thing is the fast delivery :-)

cool game and you will kick some butt. everyting work and nice too.
how many more characters till i have 100? ok it works, it is cool. you will probably likey. so buy it and try it. rent it at blockbuster or something.
i am not lying.

My 8 year old son and his friends love playing it. I also got sucked in to play it too, and it was fun. The light sabers are a nice addition. Highly recommend for any StarWars enthusiast.

the lightsabers don't work don't waste your money on the lightsabers just buy another wii motion they work alot better because with the lightsaber the sensor can't connect.

fun for awhile but can get monotonous and tiring on the hands but kids like it. start with four player choices and have to unlock the rest. ok game to play once in awhile.

i bought it for my kids and they love it!!! it was perfect for a gift and i recemend it for families that have more then 1 kid in there family since its funner with 2 or more people. ...................................................................

every aspect was fabulous, the game itself needs no introduction, but I had no idea the original game was also in this game, it is fantastic fun.

shipping took a little longer than posted. But the game is in working condition. My son kept asking when it was coming. I thought that some of the price should have been adjusted on shipping if if was not to me in the amount of time alloted.

good action; like being able to move. got the sabers to go with it and increases the fun. the kids like the battle. scenes are really good and so is animation.

I will start of by saying that I am a huge Star Wars fan. The thought of fighting with light sabers made me drool. This game is cool at first, but once you beat it in about 45 minutes, thats it. The two player mode is only fun for about two rounds, and then your bored of it. Its way to repetitive to be much fun. Another thing that bothered me was the fact that the Wii wont allow for a one to one motion for the light saber, in other words when you swing up the character swings up. It just doesnt work like that. You can just swing wildly and do as well as someone trying to pull of the special combo patterns. My advice is wait for the technology to catch up to the idea, then it will be worth YOUR MONEY!
