• You'll travel to six different worlds, from Coruscant to Tattooine, as you complete 18 incredibly difficult missions that only a seasoned warrior like Jango could take on

• Battle the scum of the spaceways and the deadliest alien creatures as you interact with over 100 different characters -- get information, buy power-ups or just blow them away

• Use twin blasters, poison darts, heat-seeking missiles and other cool Jango Fett weapons

• Fly in the Slave I from world to world, as you try & capture a Krayt Dragon, and break prisoners out of a maximum-security asteroid

• Fight your way through the worst backwaters of the area as the baddest name in bounty hunting!

The graphics are much better than I was expecting (the lighting is superb). And the action can get pretty intense. When Jango uses his two blaster pistols, he can shoot at seperate enemies in different directions at once. And he can fire them pretty fast (as rapidly as you can hit the fire button). When coupled with ducking, rolling, and use of the jetpack, this can lead to some awesome gun fights. The flamethrower is pretty cool too.

The story's pretty good for an action title and there are some quality cut scenes with quality voice acting. Morrison is the best of the bunch in this title. He plays a great Jango and he gets to show more personality than he was able to in the movie (but not too much personality - they still keep him kinda shady which is good). I like how he handles some of the situations in the game - he's very aggressive and forceful.

There's just one thing I really wish they would have added - a little more animation for Jango. Don't get me wrong though. Jango stills has a decent amount of it, but when you switch weapons - ala switching to blaster pistols - it would have been cool if Jango would actually draw them out/put them away instead of them just appearing. But I guess that's just a little thing they could have added to make the game a bit more polished. It's still a great action game anyway.

This game Rocks!!!!  Oct 30, 2004
We thought this game was awesome! Starwars fan or not this is the game for you! It is exciting and the levels are in a variety of exotic locations. The levels are long and loading is speedy. The only problem is sometimes you reach a level that is hard and takes a while to get past. The pattern is about 3 or so easier levels and then a more chalenging one. You get a variety of weopons including your pistols, whipcord, jetpack mounted mistles and other fun toys. You see a variety of cool aliens and can get secondary bounties on all the levels. Also the graphics are cool but not too disgusting so it isn't like a mature game. One of my favorite parts is the very cool wildlife (also dangerous). Get this game! Hey even my older sister loves it!

One of the better Star Wars games  Nov 24, 2002
Well I always have doubts about licensed games even from my favorite Star Wars but this game is definetly a good solid action/adventure game.
Many people would just enjoy playing the as the great bounty hunter in the SW universe would be good enough but the developers really did a good job I thought the level design was very good it brought me back to the original Tomb Raider game as far as the scope and the way you must get through the level looking about for the way through is actually fun not a chore or a simple straight line but it can be challenging which I like.
One disappointed has to be the whole Bounty Hunter thing catching bounties should be fun right? but you must switch to a visor scan view which when you do is a pain cause its the same button for weapon switching also having 8 enemies swarming at the same time your searching a bounty is no fun you'll prob pick off your bounty by accident most times even then catching a bounty is still not much fun since they just stand around you select the bounty and its as simple as tieing them up with no fight what so ever and just pressing a button presto! It'd be nice if they tried to run or break free or something then not putting up a fight.
The only interesting thing about while in the visor view you get a very detailed profile of your bounty which is nice.
And the overall presentation is excellent from storyline to CG scenes which are lengthy are top notch StarWars stuff! The Graphics are pretty good considering how big the levels are very colorful in that you'll feel like your in the Star Wars universe. Your be pretty drawn in by it all and it was very hard to put down. Its a good length to so its denfinety worth it there.
There is a few other minor complaints so its not a 5 star game but nothing that would get in the way from enjoying this game, you don't need to be a Star Wars freak to enjoy, a good action/adv. game.

A Star Wars Game at Heart  Dec 01, 2002 By Will
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a game that could have been much better, although it still provided it's entertainment. You play as the mercenary Jango Fett and put to use his many weapons including: Dual Blater pistols, flamethrower, poison darts, sniper rifle, whipcord, and his jetpack rocket. Jango can also zip around using his jetpack. Although, it doesn't last forever, so when you run out of juice you come back down to the ground and then it recharges itself rather quickly. The game takes around 12 hours to beat, with about 18 levels in 6 different worlds. The game follows a great story line based on Jango and highlights of his career. Like how he got the Slave I and how he became the model for the clone army. The plot has you collecting bounties for certain people, but in the missions themselves you can collect seconary bounties. Now this isn't always an easy task. You first have to scan them to see if there is a price on there head. Next you have to mark them, then (whether they are wanted dead or alive, or either one)you either kill them or wrap them up with the whipcord. THEN you have to collect it and normally you do all this under fire from other aliens. I found myself getting killed quite often while I went through the process of capturing a bounty. The gameplay also features a new targeting system where you can lock on to two people at once (you can only do this with the dual blaster pistols). Flying around and shooting things can be really fun at first but eventually it gets a little repetitive. When there is a lot of action around, the game does not slow up at all. It pretty much keeps a constant framerate, much to my relief. The graphics are fairly good, from the speedy laser to Jango's helment. Some of the enviroments could use some work, especially indoors and in the jungle levels. This time around Lucasarts has Industrial Light and Magic doing their CGI cutscenes (which look amazing) for them and Skywalker Sound taking care of the audio. The sound (like most Star Wars games) is excellent. The laser blasts and music all sounds like Star Wars. This game could have been better in several different aspects. The gameplay needs to be improved, but I don't know what...You can't quite put your finger on it but there's something missing. I also believe that the level design could have been spruced up some more. All in all I enjoyed Star Wars: Bounty Hunter and its flaws kept me from really loving it. I really wanted to, but I just can't. Bounty Hunter would make a great rental for the normal Star Wars fan, but if you're a harcore one, then you might want to hang on to this.
