Lucasarts has long been known for its ability to create high quality games but also its tendency to produce games that meet few levels of competence. Because of this, it's always difficult to guess which way the pendulum will swing as even highly anticipated games can turn out ugly. The pendulum was swinging the right way for Star Wars: Bounty Hunter however as the game turned out fairly solid. Although it has a few areas that could have used more attention, there are also a number of standout features that help to reduce their negative impact.
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter picks up shortly after the Phantom Menace as Jango Fett is collecting bounties. Contacted by Count Dooku, he is challenged to eradicate a fallen Jedi whose cult is starting to annoy Darth Sidious. From there the story moves in normal Star Wars fashion and is one of the strong points of the game. The cut scenes associated with moving the story line forward are also skillfully done and could sell the game by itself.
The gameplay is more of a mixed bag with problems that can cause unnecessary frustration. For instance, Jango carries a significant amount of gear and weapons that are required to be quickly accessible. This however can prove quite challenging and frustrating as all his gear and weapons are rotated using a single button. What happens is if you happen to be using your visor and run into a number of enemies, you frantically scroll through your weapons and gear looking for a specific weapon, only to pass it and have to scroll through them again. The problem is reduced by holding down the button to scroll, which will freeze gameplay while you select the appropriate selection, but when enemies surprise you and start firing, inevitably you'll ended up trying to scroll to a preferred weapon getting blasted the whole time.
Another smaller issue is the AI. It seems like developers have been putting less time into creating a dynamic AI system and Bounty Hunter falls to the same fate. The enemies often make no effort to take cover when fired at and generally stand in one spot until captured or destroyed.
The rest of Star Wars: Bounty Hunter plays well with high sound quality and graphics that help fill the gaps in gameplay. Although not one the best games of the year, it still has a number of redeeming qualities and if you're a fan of either Star Wars or third person shooters, you won't be disappointed.
