Star Wars: Lethal Alliance Critic Reviews

Rianna's a refreshing refrain from the traditional light-saber-wielding goon.

The shooting elements are uninspired, but Lethal Alliance features enough variety to please action and Star Wars fans alike.

It's decent enough, but it's sloppy and a general lack of excitement hurt it.

Taken as a whole, Lethal Alliance lacks that variety required to keep a game engaging from start to finish.

An original and entertaining addition to the Star Wars canon with great new characters and some cracking action.

Fans will love this, but most will be better off with "Star Wars: Battlefront II."

While this game takes place between the last and the very first Star Wars episode, I was expecting a bit more revelation in the storyline, instead it only reinforces what we already know.

A decent, variable and exciting action game and fans of Star Wars have a game that won’t leave them cringing.

There’s a lot of variety to the levels and the teamwork aspect is pretty good but ultimately this is a portable action game that could have a lot better.

In short, it looks good, runs well and only suffers from a few glitches here and there.

The graphics are by far the best part of the game, but the new stylish camera techniques and gameplay ideas will interest Star Wars fans who don't mind some artistic experimentation with the series. All in all, Lethal Alliance is a good, if unremarkable, outing on the floundering system.

It's just too much of a chore and with the Star Wars link tenuous at best, it'd be better if you left this on a shelf far, far away.

There’s certainly a lot to love, yet equally as much to shake your fist and scream obscenities at in Lethal Alliance.

It's rough around the edges, but it's still pretty fun overall.

Somewhat engaging. Numerous shortcomings prevent it from being widely recommendable, but for a quick action fix Star Wars: Lethal Alliance will get the job done.

Not the best Star Wars game in the canon – weak mission design and targeting issues hold it back – but it's still a fun distraction for series aficionados and PSP action adventure fans alike.

Star Wars: Lethal Alliance does little to differentiate itself from the herd of third-person action games on PlayStation Portable. The Star Wars inclusion is too subtle to be considered a benefit and the action is ho-hum.

Like a number of Star Wars titles in the past, Lethal Alliance tries to introduce a new facet to the already rich sci-fi mythology, but ultimately fails in its execution. Instead, the gameplay quickly boils down to a repetitive experience, with bland environments playing host to a seemingly endless number of bland shoot out.

There are much better action games out on the PSP than this one, so pass it by unless you're obsessed with Star Wars.

An exercise in mediocrity. The visual and aural presentation is great, but the single player game is riddled with moments of sheer tedium and you'll soon find yourself in situations you've seen over and over again. It's beyond repetitive and lacks any real fun factor.
