The game has a very nice little cineamatic if you sit at the start menu for awhile. Worth a watch but has alot from the Demo scenes. Once you hit start you choose your level. I choose to play on the default setting. "normal" or "sith warrior". You have 3 others to choose from. Easy is Apprentice, Hard is Sith Lord and Expert is Sith Master.
The Story starts out just like any Star Wars movie, the rolling summary of whats happening, and whats about to happen. Darth Vader flies down to the wookie planet of Kashyyyk, in search of a rogue Jedi. So yea, you start out the game as Vader, full powers, a Master of the Dark Side, the most powerful Jedi of all time :). He's slow, but his power makes up for it. You go slamming through Wookies with ease, not much of a challenge on this level. But thats the way it should be right? I mean come on you VADER.
Stormtroopers are there fighting with wookies as well, and seems if you kill 12 of them you get an acheivement, so i practiced my force grips by throwing about 15 of them off bridges to uncertian death lol. "Worst Day Shift Manager Ever".
Now to touch on a few things so far, most of the achievments are listed as "Secret" however, i've provided the list and for the most part all the "Secret" ones are easy to get if your using all your powers to your advantage. Your also gonna relize pretty quick that with Vader you so powerful not much can happen, all his stats and attributes are maxed out, he basiclly blocks all blaster fire on his own, leaving you to just walk through the level slamming wookies everywhere, breaking alot of stuff to bits, and generally whoopin some arse.
Use this level to work on things like force grip, lightsaber throws, and your force push. All of which you can develope your main character into later. This Prologue is fairly short, all ending with a battle between Vader and a Jedi Master. This is all important because of the ending result. I wont spoil the fun but its not easy to find out if you wanna know, or if you just stop and think of how it all plays out.
Anyways the boss battle at the end of Level 1 is a bit of a disappointment, i mean your vader you make quick work of him, and the worst thing you get is a few tie fighters dropped on you. One of the cool things about the game is when you defeat a boss, in order to "finish them off" you'll be required to hit a series of buttons. If hit correctly it'll go through an awesome show of cinematics that ultimently defeats them and leaves you sitting there going "wow, that was pretty cool".
Achievements for this level are based on how quick you figure things out. I got the one mentioned above because i Knew about it. Then there are some of the Combo Achievements in which I got fairly easy by allowing a number of wookies to surround me, then using force repulse to send them all flying off a bridge.
Objectives on this mission were simple, Kill the Jedi Master. Achievements I got on this level.G
got the mission completion achievement obviously which was Invasion
Sith Lord Frenzy
Sith Frenzy
Worst Day shift manager Ever.
Overall Score for the level: 8/10
Yup an 8. Easy, not that long of a level, but still you PLAY AS VADER. I mean come on, how many gamers out there have gotten a Star wars game, and wanted noting more than to go on a rampage with Vader. Well you FINALLY get to do it. Easy or not, it's still fun to get to do it. It's like a dream come true to a Star wars fan. Lots of cool stuff to break and destroy so play around with that. My first impression of the game after this level was "wow.. ok that was awesome" but then im like "ok now to watch some cinematics and hope that i can get my character to such powers".
Now for the cinematics. After defeating the Jedi Master you straight into the plot of the game, you relize how Vader came to get his "secret apprentice" and then its virtually right into your first mission.
Thers level 1, I'll be posting level 2 shortly. Soon as I get my lil girl up and ready for the school bus.!!
