It's always particularly disappointing when a Star Wars game fails to meet the standards that you think it should. Sure, The Phantom Menace has some gorgeous graphics, awesome sound...and even a copy of the music video included on the disc (if a little grainy), but it suffers from numerous tiny niggles that ruin it. First, there's the sort of top-down view, something that makes you feel like you're wandering around looking at your feet all the time. You can never see very far in front of you, and there is nothing on screen to give you any sense of direction...something that's especially annoying in the less action-oriented 'adventure' sequences. Speaking of those sequences, the fact that key gameplay points are fixed to conversation set-pieces is irritating too. You know you have to find Anakin in Mos Espa, but if you haven't had the right chat with the right person, he doesn't appear. It makes sense, but the way the game guides you...it feels very clumsy. Throw in some overly sensitive controls that make the 'platform game' bits unnecessarily challenging and you have something akin to Jar-Jar on the annoy-o-meter. If you battle on, it follows the movie in a satisfactory manner, but it inconveniences you so often that you might give up halfway through. After all, you know what happens at the end.

As a big fan of the flick, I can overlook most of this game's flaws, except for one biggie--the poor control. Jumping from platform to platform is more than a chore; it's annoying, falling forces you to loop back through terrain you already covered. The game does look nice, and the voice acting is well done (the voices for Jar Jar and Watto were done by the same actors from the film). Deflecting lasers with your saber is the best thing about this game.

I agree with John that Episode One lacks that special something you expect from a game based on such an incredible universe, but it's stilt cool walking around and kicking ass as a Jedi. But let's step back a bit and pretend the thing isn't associated with Star Wars--that it's just some generic action/adventure game. As such, it's only average. It has decent game-play and incredible music and dialogue but not much else. Some levels are pretty tedious.

TPM wasn't as bad as I had expected (the PC version was panned awhile back), but that's not saying a whole lot. Doing an action/adventure based on the movie can be tricky. To make the game playable and lengthy, they had to tweak with the flow of events. This automatically backfires because nobody wants scenarios that aren't in the movie. Plus, you can't change views so the top-down camera position can be obstructive at all the wrong times.
