I have not played Lego SW II, but I have seen demos of it at different shops. While I find it kind of silly, I think it would be a pretty fun "father-son" sort of game. I remember how many great times I had playing two-players on Pac-Man with my dad when I was a kid. It is kind of nice there are still some two player games like that being made, games that are kid friendly but interesting enought to entertian an adult too. Wii seems like a great system for that aswell, if I had kids I would not hesitate to buy one.

As for Jedi Academy, it felt kind of rushed. I was disappointed, but still enjoyed it (though I still have yet to beat it), it wasn't that bad if you didn't pay full price for it, and consider it more of an expansion pack for Jedi Outcast. I liked the master and apprentence OT style setup, and the way you traveled around from planet to planet doing different missions. I found that somehow reminicent of the original Dark Forces. I really wish they would make a new SW game that puts you in the shoes of an average shmoe in the SW galaxy. A shmoe who knows nothing about the force, has never met Luke Skywalker, and had little or no connection to the Rebels. It is an interesting galaxy with a lot to explore, too bad most games are bogged down with the same ol thing again and again. This is the reason why Dark Forces and the X-Wing series still rank as my favorite SW games of all time. How cool would a GTA Coruscant be? You could be involved in organized crime SW style. Imagine being able to choose your character from a large rang of various aliens, and being chased by Imperial Stormtroopers instead of cops. This coming from a guy who is not a GTA fan, it would be pure gold.
