Star Wars
This is the best Lego game. This game lets you run around as iconic characters such as Gonk Droids and Rebel Friend, battle in iconic battles such as the battle of the death star and of duel on Naboo. 5 stars.

Both LEGO Star Wars in One Package
LEGO Star Wars the Complete Saga for WII: Combining two games into one, LEGO SWTCS gives us a slew of new features and expands upon the gameplay from the Original Trilogy game for the Prequel era... However, there are a few issues I have with this game.
First of all, the Prequel Era levels have not been changed in the slightest, they've added a few features found in the sequel, but the levels are still much shorter than their OT counterparts, it takes about forty-five minutes or more to get through a stage of the OT, when you're going hogwild and blowing up everything in sight to collect a massive pile of studs. Whereas the PT levels take less than 25 minutes, and if you're not blowing things up willy nilly and maxing out on stud collecting you can finish them in less than three minutes.
Secondly, although the PT vehicle levels have been marginally improved, for some reason the Battle of Coruscant hasn't been altered too much. I mean all they added was a red Power Brick to that level. The rest of it is still on rails with certain checkpoints, but it does look a little more open compared to the original PS2 version of that stage.
I am glad that TT and Lucasarts modified the game to include the music from RotS, it's much better hearing the actual battle Theme from RotS than just hearing Duel of the Fates again. (The PS2 Copy only featured music from the first two entries in the PT so as to avoid spoiling the new music in the climactic battle from RotS... At least I think that's right.)
The vehicles incorporated into the PT stages are also littered few and far between, and there really isn't any incentive to use them like in the OT. The new Bounty Hunter missions and the massive amount of Gold Bricks to collect is highly addictive and fun. Being able to play as Indiana Jones in the Star Wars Saga is also a real treat and a great feature.
More Jedi, more Droids, more Bounty Hunters, everything is great. I am sad to see that Yoda however has lost his mobility from the PT, since floating around in his little chair was always a hoot, but now you can't do that and so it adds to the tedium of playing as Yoda in the RotS Kasshyyk Stage.
My copy suffers from an inexcusable glitch, which I recently discovered, in the Droid Factory stage, if you are killed by the large presses, the game will freeze up and an annoying buzzing sound will happen. This isn't a big deal during regular stage play, but in Super Story mode, where if this happens you have to shut down the system and re-start it can be a pain having to go through the first two stages again only to fail in avoiding gristly death and passing that section of the game. I feel that this sort of thing should not be happening, especially since the game was basically already programmed for these stages on previous gen systems and as a port with only minor modifications these types of glitches should not even be an issue.
That being said, this game is a great bargain, great fun and still loaded to the brim with impressive and enjoyable LEGO Video Game fun. With brand new features for the PT and extra levels, it'll take a while to reach 100% completion. I still recommend this game to anyone who would be interested in it, but be wary of picking it up at discount prices, because you too might experience the unfortunate glitch mentioned above.
I could go into greater detail on the features, but we all know what they are by now I suspect. Many new characters and pieces for building your own playable character are included. And the improved vehicle stages in the PT are a definite good thing. Here's hoping that LEGO will continue to make these styles of Video Games avilable through their partnership with Traveler's Tales, because their games are genius. And don't be fooled by the simplicity of these titles, they're fun for the entire age bracket, from 5 to 55 and beyond.

"The [Saga] is Now Complete!" - Darth Vader (Sorta) :)
Finally, after two years of development in TT Games, the Lego Star Wars universe is now complete with the joining of both prequel and original star wars triliogies into one awsome game. Lego Star Wars: The Complete saga for Wii is an awsome, funfilled game that, at first, didn't meet my expectations, but after playing it and finally beating it, it surely has. The prequel triliogy rounds(Episodes I, II, III) have been modified with power bricks unlocking new extras like stud magnet and force grapple leap; and new vehicles have been added like the stap and flash speeder. Also every round has been modified with power ups hidden within breakable lego objects. These power ups give you a list of extras right in the middle of the round if you pick one up, but they don't last forever. Also, the vehicle rounds of the prequel triliogy have been modified to the freeplay standards of the original triliogy. All prequel triliogy episodes have been modified with interesting character and minikit bonuses and super stories. Plus extra toggle use allows you to be all new characters like the buzz droid and the rancor! Other new characters include Boss Nass, Captain Tarpals, Watto, Pit Droid, Zam Wessel, Taun We, Lama Su, Ayla Secura, R2-Q5, and Indiana Jones! Also, there are 6 bonus rounds that include the Original Podrace, the Original Gunship Calvary, the Original Episode 4 round, an all new Anakin's Naboo Starfighter round, the original Lego City, and an all new lego city round called New Town. There's also even a new Two Player Challenge Mode that'sa lot of fun. The character customiser has been modified to include all character's peices. There's also a new feature within all the freeplay rounds that allow's you to complete a special challenge that consists of finding ten secretly hidden blue minikits within 10 minutes time. Also, an extra ten bounty hunter missions have been added to the original bounty missions that correspond with the prequel triliogy episodes. As you can see this game has tons of new goodies that makes it almost impossible to resist getting. The only thingdidn't like was the new stud fountain that only produces gray studs. But, it doesn't really matter considering that the score times extras are much cheaper than in the second game. So, if you're a big lego star wars fan like myself, you should definitely get this game for this great system.
