Lego Star Wars 3 cutscene picture
Welcome to my review of Lego Star Wars 3: The Clone Wars. After covering all the Star Wars movies, Lego has now moved us into the universe covered by the animated series, but does it stack up or will it topple like your dads last attempt at helping you build a Lego car?

Developers: Traveller’s Tales
Publishers: Traveller’s Tales, LucasArts

Modes: Single-player, multiplayer co-op
Rating: ESRB: E +10, PEGI: 7+

This newest title takes the best elements of the previous hit Lego Star Wars games while adding some all-new gameplay elements from the RTS genre as you command troops in large-scale battles. In addition, the game includes all new battle modes for head-to-head combat, as well as an upgraded level builder. The new level builder includes customizable bases and in-game battlefields that players can craft for the split-screen multiplayer. The game also includes extensive air combat sections with the new ability to land your craft and fight on foot.

The Story Swap Mode meanwhile allows you to take control of two separate characters in separate locations and switch between them as their unique story lines run simultaneously. You can take control of either a Jedi or a Seperatist and have all-new abilities including Squad Command, Lightsaber Jumps, long-distance attacks, Grapple Tie-Ups and a more.

With much improved graphics, physics and special effects, Lego Star Wars 3 is sure to put a smile on the face of any Lego or Star Wars fan, young or old!

Well lets take a look at it all in action in my video review.

As a conclusion let’s see how much fun the game is on a scale from 1 to 10:

Endless Ocean Wii review takes you on a relaxing dive in the sea

Endless Ocean snorkeling in Spain
As you can see from the above photo, there are many fish in the Spanish seas. Yeah, I looooved snorkeling there. I remember well when I was a kid on holiday in Spain and especially Tunisia, where there’d be these beautiful Mediterranean coral reefs sparkling with life. I always wished I could dive deeper where different fish swam, but all I had was a snorkel, so the depth I could dive to was limited to how how many minutes I could hold my breath.

And it’s pretty scary to not be able to see all the way to the bottom, the result of far too many Jaws movies no doubt. So how great is it that Nintendo released a diving exploration game in which you can’t even die.

Endless Ocean (known as Forever Blue in Japan) on Nintendo Wii is a diving simulator and the sequel to developer Arika’s PlayStation 2 game Everblue 2 and it’s the perfect relaxation dive into the (deep) sea.
