Star Wars Lego I: The Video Game Reviews
Lego games come with SecuROM DRM. Thanks for screwing up my computer LucasArts. behold. My son and I have had fun with it. Great game. While investigating reasons behind my computer's tendency to reboot and/or freeze without warning.
You get to play through Episodes 1-3. I enjoy this game. I have a good Nivda card that runs with no problems. HIghly Reccommend this game. I decided to buy for my house.
I saw this game at my cousin's house. I cannot wait for Lego Star Wars 2. You get to buy characters. These clips are like the movie. The funniest part is the movie clips.
Have not been able to use since our computer does not have the appropriate hardware (computer is 2 years old) so we will need to purchase an upgrade for the pixels for a mere $[.]. Needless to say, my son is very disappointed.HUGE waste of money.
Good luck. My wife had concerns about my youngest son using the keyboard control and carpal tunnel (he didn't have the strength/coordination to use the flight joystick). needed the immediate gratification. I purchased both games some years ago so I'm not sure what the disk 1 issue is about from the other posts. I have to mention the 360 controller was of good quality with a long USB cord. The keyboard control is confusing and not conducive to game play. Both installed without issues. I'm running the game on lower resolution on both computers and they work fine.
My desktop computer initially recognized the controller but I accidently selected default in the controller section (distracted by kids) and controls reverted back to keyboard. Both computers are Pentium 4s and they are very very old system (desktop 2001 and laptop 2004). If you have kids and plan on buying a computer, don't be cheap and spend the extra money on a dedicated graphics card. It did take a bit of time but the installations were without problems. The game would not recognize the 360 controller after that mistake.
I did a bit of searching on the internet and discovered the problem is deleting the file, SWLEGO.BIN, in the directory of the Lego Star Wars game and then the game will recognize the Xbox 360 controller. Laptop: 3.4 Ghz, 1GB RAM, 256 MB VRAM ATI 9800 Mobility discrete graphics card. Both games were purchased for my older son when he was around 7 years old and he absolutely enjoyed the games. The Lego Star Wars 2 game recognized the 360 controller without problems and mapped the buttons without intervention. The wired Xbox 360 controller was purchased at a local retailer for $40 but Amazon had it on sale for about $30. I had a flight joy stick that was recognized by the games and he used that to control the characters.
Having the Xbox controller certainly brings a new level of game play and control to the game. My youngest son now is 6 years old and heavily into Star Wars so I reinstalled both games on the same laptop and desktop computers. The controller wasn't recognized properly on my laptop installation i.e. Desktop: 1.8 Ghz, 768 MB RAM, 256 MB VRAM Nvidia FX5500 discrete graphics card. I ended up buying a wired Xbox 360 controller because I read that it was more compatible and supported more PC games. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling the Lego Star Wars game but the same problem. Both Lego Star Wars and Lego Star Wars 2 are excellent games and I highly recommend them.
I have to mention the button mapping on the Xbox controller is slightly different between the Lego star Wars and Lego Star Wars 2 but it is acceptable and my son adjusted accordingly. keyboard control only for the desktop computer. only keyboard control was available. Eventually he outgrew the game and I uninstalled the games from both laptop and desktop computers.
Better quality than a PS2 or PS3 controller. The Lego Star Wars game was a bit different. Last thing, my computer specs. I just wanted to share some experiences that I had with both Lego Star Wars and Lego Star Wars 2.
The intel integrated chip is limited in its capability. Spend the $30-$40 for the wired Xbox 360 controller. You may find a used controller at your local Gamestop store. My 6 year old absolutely loves both games.
I'm considering the Lego Indiana Jones and Lego Batman games but have some concerns about the DVD emulator issue (copy protection) as I have an external DVD burner for my desktop and laptop. Both games installed without problems. This will save you and your child some heart ache.
I bought one for our house and it will not work on our computer - which is new, has all the gaming "stuff" necessary, but runs on Vista. My son plays this game at a neighbor's house and loves it. Funny, my neighbor has Vista and it works fine there. The company support says, "Sorry, it doesn't always work on Vista.". .
