LEGO Star Wars - The Complete Saga

i have played this game so many times in my life if lego star wars 1 and 2 were on steam i'd give tcs a negative review but they aren't so this is the closest available thing, it's currently the only legal way to play lego star wars 1 (or rather a version of it) on pc as a game this is fun, it's lego star wars 1 and 2 put together + new stuff how couldn't i like that? as a remaster however this is so rushed and unpolished on maximum graphics the shadows make interactive objects and characters look so weird and overly dark, so many stages were remastered with bump mapping and specular mapping and bloom, which looks great, but the base lighting of the levels was adjusted and looks really bad, specially on the lsw1 side of the game, the ot part is mostly untouched but the prequels were just so botched in the conversion from ps2 to wii and 360 the bloom also freaks out sometimes making the game render bright lights where there should be shadows a lot of the remastered models in hd mode are also really off model and ugly some levels were made way too much easier by having power ups added that make you invincible others were made harder (gunship cavalry) by taking an already hard level and adding backtracking one particular new level that feels like a massive waste of potential was bounty hunter pursuit, tt's original plans for this level on the first game were great but they decided to scrap that and remake the level from scratch in the lsw2 style of ship levels, making it a really annoying level where you slowly run through coruscant blow stuff up with torpedos and kill zam in 1 second by spamming the shoot button, my guess is that finishing the original version in the new engine would've been too much work this game also for some reason decided luke and leia's death sounds should be the default and now a lot of characters die sounding like luke and it really doesn't fit again if lsw1 and 2 were on steam i'd give this a negative review, but they aren't so this is the closest thing you can currently get to playing those games on pc legally, if you just wanna mess around it's fine it's fun, i specially like making mods for this game because fan efforts to reverse engineer it have been making that easier in the last 7 years it just irks me how much praise this game gets for being a "classic" when it's actually a rushed port of two great games with more downgrades than upgrades

I have put hundreds of hours into this game and the Ds version over the course of my life. LSWTCS is one of the best Lego games of all time and that's all you need to know. PLAY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!

Absolutely timeless One of the most fun Star Wars games ever made Great humor tons of characters and insanely fun co-op Still holds up perfectly today
