It’s just a shame that for all the initial graphical beauty, complexity and diversity of The Clone Wars, it really boils down to a simple, flawed, over-stretched game design.

For the first time in my life, I was completely engrossed in a Star Wars game.

Though it doesn’t match the overall bliss which "Rogue Squadron 2" had with the graphics and all, it is still one enjoyable game that you won’t want to put down once you get thrown into the middle of the action, which only takes about five minutes.

2021 Review So I've beaten this game MULTIPLE times. Idk how many hours I threw into this as a kid but this game speaks to me even today as an adult and I'm gonna look at this objectively without nostalgia goggles. Star Wars the Clone Wars, is like the cover looks- a tank based 3rd person shooter. And if you like Star Wars or if you like tank based combat you should get this game and play it. The game really gets the on ground heavy artillery feel of the Clone Wars while also spicing each mission up with different objectives and different tanks and weaponry throughout the campaign. The story is meh, but the actually game itself is well developed. Destroying droids is fun! You pilot gunships, you steal separatist tanks and sneak into facilities, you fight huge bosses that intimidate me to this day. All while the backing epic soundtrack of clone wars motivates you through battle after battle. Escort missions, to search and destroy, to timed attrition. BUT, the MAIN EVENT in my opinion is the multiplayer. its 4 player excitement. Unlocking the maps and game modes in single player allows for many MANY hours of fun in the multiplayer. There is a wave based survival where up to four of you fend off increasing difficult and hilariously overpowered waves. There is dueling which is like deathmatch. Zone mode (king of the hill), and my favorite Conquest. Which you capture outposts around the map and they produce AI tanks to fight for you. So it could be a 2vs2 match where you and your teammate have to capture outposts to win a huge battle. Is this game for everyone? Ya know... I feel like the survival wave mode ANYONE can jump in an have a good time. But true star wars fans or Action/Shooter fans will find plenty to enjoy with the game. If you don't have people to play with the single player can still add challenge on hard mode and the survival wave mode is fun too even if by yourself. Its worth a play at the very least.

This had the potential to be a great Star Wars Game if it wasn't for the unplayable on foot segments. The vehicular combat is solid. I can't recommend this to everyone.

It sacrifices glamour and elaborate play mechanics to be what it is supposed to be: Fun.
78
Magnificent controls, thrill-a-minute gameplay, and an incredible sense of pacing elevate the title above the average senseless shooter.
75
Delivers what you'd expect. You want lots of explosions, and lots of things to shoot at, and they're on the disk.
70
A fun and frantic action game that lacks polish. If you’re a Star Wars fan and/or enjoy blowing stuff up, it’s well worth your attention.

One of the game's most interesting levels even has you riding a lizard mounted with big Wookie bowcasters. It looked cool on Tatooine and it looks cool here.

Technically, the game is shoddy. While most of the vehicle models are good, the same cannot be said about the rest of the graphics. The environments are simple and uninteresting, draw distance on some levels is short and the texture quality is below average.
