The Quest For R2-D2

Now guys, as many of you know, The Lego Star Wars Beta has been released. If you havent yet played it: http://www.lucasarts.com/games/legostarwarsiii/index.jsp . If you want a more inside look at that, read my review on it here: http://www.thebrickupdate.com/2011/01/lego-star-wars-3-clone-wars-beta-review.html . Anyway, I have recently played a game on star wars.com called the "The Quest For R2-D2". This game is pretty fun and shows you another aspect of how the soon-to-be- released game will be like. There aren't any huge battles like you see in the trailers, but it does give you a taste of how the playing type will be like.

In this game, you play as a choice of four characters, who go on a search for the little astromech we all love: R2-D2. As you work your way through levels, you are exposed to new elements and every level advancement, the game gets harder. You collect jewels (red and yellow) to see whether you get gold, silver, or bronze achievement on each level. As you get closer, the amounts of battle droids increase. This is a fun game, but unless you are super super MLG (Major League Gamer) combined with being a no-life, you should play this game over a span of days and not all at once.I see this as an addition to the beta and it shows you another aspect of this game's experience.

I suggest checking this game out, and you can find it here on Star wars.com in the game section: http://starwars.com/games/playnow/r2d2_quest/ or here at Lego.com/games: http://starwars.lego.com/en-us/Games/Default.aspx . Play on people! and keep looking for Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars and when I post my review of it to TheBrickUpdate! Thanks!
