Lego Star Wars

I got the Nintendo Wii game Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga for Christmas. It recreates the Star Wars story line, but with Legos. It's pretty fun watching Lego people fall apart when you swing your Lego light saber around. Needless to say, I'm excited about this game.

What I want to share today is the welcome letter from the instruction manual:

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... blah, blah, blah, blah.

Let's just cut right to the chase. The game in this box is a piece of galactic history, so treat it like a short-tempered wookiee - express your admiration and offer lots of praise.

For the first time since ever, you can play through the entire Star Wars saga in one, single adventure. It's like joining the Jedi Council - sort of a big deal, you know.

That's six episodes of Jedi mind tricks, extreme podracing, hanging out with Ewoks on Endor, and exploding the Death Star for the bazillionth time. Plus, you'll run into lots of old pals - Chewbacca, R2-D2, Luke, Leia; memorable enemies too, like Darth Maul, General Grievous, and a very angry Darth Vader. There are even a few new friends - Jedi Aayla Secura and bounty hunter Zam Wesell.

Plus, if you fall to pieces along the way, you can just restart - which the Rebels certainly wish they could have done when they were struggling to defeat the Empire for real. You do know Star Wars is based on a true story, right?

So let's jump right to it and get started before the Wookiee gets upset again!

  2. OK, this may be totally horrible of me, but I absolutely love that Chewbacca kills people by tearing their arms off. I don't know if you've gotten him as a character yet, but that's definitely something to look forward to ;-)

    Have fun!
