I like Lego, and I like Star Wars. When they announced they would make a Lego Star Wars video game in 2005, I was excited. The actual Lego Star Wars sets looked cool, and I could just imagine how much fun it would be to cruise around as Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, etc, in the Lego world. Alas, as it turned out, the game was based on the crap-crap-crappy recent Star Wars movies, therefore by definition, it sucked. Well now it's 2006, and they've wised up they're coming out with a second Lego Star Wars game, and this one is securely focussed on the first three movies, aka "The Good Star Wars". Here's two quotes from the preview that sound particularly cool:
"Any non-droid character will be able to ride any creature and pilot any vehicle, so the player will have the chance to, say, have Lando Calrissian ride a tauntaun or Leia pilot an AT-ST."
"Examples of the melee attacks include Leia's face slap and Chewbacca pulling LEGO arms off of an opposing character, just like Han Solo implies in Episode IV when he tells C-3PO, "Droids don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose. Wookiees are known to do that."
Sweet.
