The Clone Wars has you deep inside the battles of the Old Republic through 16 missions, piloting a range of vehicles including speeder bikes, Republic Gunships and fighter tanks as well as the weapon of the Jedi, your lightsabre, for close combat. Whereas the Rogue Squadron series concentrated on aerial battles, The Clone Wars contains almost all ground battles. You must fight as Anakin Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, and others throughout the game to prevent the Confederacy from gaining a deadly weapon. Multiplayer options are also included for up to four players with game types including deathmatch, conquest, and a co-op ground and vehicle survival mode.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars delivers a straightforward dose of large-scale battle action set during the iconic prequel era. Players experience ground assaults, vehicular combat, and some light lightsaber sequences as familiar Jedi heroes. While it boasts explosions, frenetic moments, and a taste of Star Wars spectacle, clunky controls and somewhat repetitive mission design drag the experience down. It's a decent distraction for Star Wars fans craving a simple blast of Clone Wars nostalgia, but its gameplay hasn't aged particularly gracefully.
