| Summary: it grows on you
85
I was severaly disappointed with this out of box. It's choppy at times and the controls were insane, until I switched to "basic" then things got fun quickly.
Playability
It's weird at first, you'll be saying "oh look! I'm Boba Fett! Oh wait, Boba's dead already!?" Playing it took some getting used to but after a few hours it's really fun and quite intuitive.
Load Times
Eh, I've seen worse. I'd say probably 30 seconds between loads, maybe a minute, sometimes.
Graphics
I don't think they took full advantage of the PSP, I was wishing for a little more streamlined graphics, but I wasn't complaining too much. Darth did look a little thin though.
Sound
It's John Williams music, you've heard it for 20+ years now, of course it's great.
Overall Value
The replay on this is what's great and it's fun once you get into it but it was that learning curve that was tough at first. I think I played for about four hours tonight and made myself put it down just so I could get some sleep.
Hot Buy or Midnight Rental?
I'd say if you are a Star Wars fan and like to try out all the characters of the SW Universe, then yes, buy this game. I'm giving it a B+ because of the replay factor, if it weren't for that, I'd probably only give it a C if that.

I got it that Gamepsot sold it at 9:00pm last night.
Online play? I didn't work last night..I'm loading it up right now and I'll let you know in a minute
+
yeah I do not see this having online play althought it's deceptive and at first you'd think it would be
+
so i'm guessing you have to unlock the ability to use jedis? well anyways, when you do play as jedi or if you have already, let us know how that is. also, is the space dog fighting fun as well?
+
no jedi is your hero...no unlocking. It's fun...dog fighting is pretty fun, it's a little confusing at times but it is a nice long dogfight and that's fun!

a nice long dog fight? as in only one?
+
looks like an awesome game....for my computer
+
im just gonna get it for xbox cause i loved the first bf. i swear, i rented it like 7 times but never bought it and i dont know why, weird
+
So basically it's fun, but you have to get used to it before it becomes fun.
I'll probably rent it first to play it for an extended time.
But, since it supposedly doesn't have online play, I might get the home version (unless this one impresses me).
+
How does it handle bigger battles? Please tell me the fields aren't divided into small sectors like Dynasty Warriors.
+
it handles the battles fine, I feel. Yes I'd urge you to rent it unless you are a Star Wars fanboy...
+
I am a huge Star Wars fan, but I will rent it first.
+
Xanog, good thinking. I'm enjoying the hell out of this game but if I were a more discerning/hardcore gamer...I'd probably rent
+
is there instant battle and what other things?
