Being a parent whose kids love Star Wars, this game seems to be a good choice. However, you have to sign up for a Windows Live account in order to save your progress in the game. I spent 2 days trying to do this, only to find out that because I entered my son’s name and birth date in the registration screen, I had to go to the Windows Live homepage and give parental permission for him to do the game. That was a real pain in the a$# and I don’t like the idea of the game connecting to Windows servers during the game. That’s the reason I’m only giving this game 3 stars. My kids however, both elementary students, think the game is 5 stars. If you want a game for an older audience, I would recommend the Force Unleashed Sith Edition. It’s good for me and I remember watching the first Star Wars episode back in 1977 when I was in elementary school. After playing that game, the Force Unleashed, the Clone Wars seems very simple and boring.

The Art of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a coffee table book that looks excellent and is packed with renderings from the theatrical release and Season I of the TV series. The book also includes a quick peek at Season II. The emphasis is on concept art and you can get a real feel for the development of characters and places. My suggestion would be to take your time going through the book. Study the pictures and absorb the artwork.
Each picture in the book has a caption explaining specifically what you are looking at and what the artist’s name is. Many of the pictures also come with much longer explanations giving excellent background information, e.g., a particularly interesting write-up on the influence of Ralph McQuarrie. We hear from Director Dave Filoni a good deal as he explains the initial concepts of The Clone Wars and takes us through some of the changes that took place as the project came to fruition.
If you are a fan of The Clone Wars and enjoy the visual presentation, then this book is for you
The style of this book captures the artwork of the Clone Wars in great detail. It shows all of the workings as it is produced for each episode, and shows the working process. But then again, the Clone Wars is moving art in itself. This book is a great find for those who want to see the ideas before they are on the screen. The visuals are just as pretty as the finished composite. It will contend with the movie versions of The Art of Star Wars and is a good buy for those who are collecting.
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2YSQ5VQ69FGMO This book is actually published by two publishers, Chronicle Books and Titan Books. I’ve seen both and they are the same except the price which depends on the country you’re in. Chronicle Books is also releasing a US$120 limited edition as well but it’s cheaper on Amazon. It comes with a white slipcase with 8 prints in an envelope inside the back cover.
The Art of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a pretty thick book at 272 pages. It covers art for the movie as well as the TV series. The chapters are arranged according to the 22 episodes with the last chapter containing a sneak peak into Season II.
We have character designs, ship designs, storyboards, environment design, lighting studies, some film stills and plenty of beat boards (scenes featuring major story points). The artistic style and feel here are very different from the usual Star Wars art books since this is for the animated series. The characters might be a little over stylized but that’s why it’s done in animation.
A great deal of illustrations are digitally painted, to a point I feel there’s an overdose and makes traditional pieces stand out by contrast. The detailed pieces are great because they have a hint of textures. The less detailed paintings look like a speed painting pieces with that blotchy feel. Curse the round-point tip brush! I guess I still like to see textures created by brush bristles.
The pencil sketches and other non traditional medium pieces are delightful to look at because they are more organic and the style is a breath of fresh air compared to the digital paintings. Many of the sketches come with handwritten notes from the artists.
Film stills are very few and there are almost no 3D models. This book really focuses on the pre-production concept art.
All the drawings are captioned by the artists and production team. They talk about the concept and sometimes some production stories, such as rigging, modeling and texturing. The pencil drawings on General Grievous’s original form before mechanical “improvements” are interesting to look at, and read since the artists couldn’t decided whether he’s should be a gorilla or cockroach.
Overall, I consider this art book is worth the money because of its satisfactory volume, and art of course.
My reservation is only to the insane amount of full coloured illustrations digitally created. It’s a personal preference.
(More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)
It covers a lot of good things, all episodes of season 1 are included in this book. So that’s so good, with so many precious images…
My 7 yo son wanted to play this game on his DiDJ so he saved and finally bought it. When it arrived, he desperately open the box and inserted the cartridge in the game console. A few minutes later he was enjoying , making noices and having fun. The questions provided in this game were something new for him so this keep him excited and inmerse in the game.
I asked hime the next day about some of the questions the game showed up and he was able to retain knowledge. That’s nice! He’s on advance math class
My son got the Diji for Christmas this year from Santa and he literally didn’t put it down for three days. With the after X-mas sales I got him this game. Along with other parents I worried that it may be too old for him (he is 6) and might be too much of a challenge with the math skills. No, he did just fine. He only asked me for a little bit of help, and thanks to his sister-who got online and spent some of his “credits” he has new challenges and new stuff for all of his games. Way to go Diji, keep the cool games coming and this will stick around for a long time.
Star wars is a math oriented game that is great for grades 1 – 3 and review or refresh of basic math for older kids. More difficult math for upper levels needs a different game. The fun my boys have with this game, they don’t even realize they are doing math and learning. They are learning and refreshing so much I am very pleased! I can program the game to specify the areas each child needs to work on (multiplication for my eldest, two digit adding and subtracting with carrying/borrowing for my middle and +/- 0-12 for my youngest) I highly recommend this for fun and or math!
I got this game with Sonic for my 6 year old’s Didj and although he plays sonic more, he loves this one. This one is a little more difficult so I like that it challenges him more but I don’t like the math question options as much. It still is teaching him so it’s not all bad, just not my favorite. He still likes to play it even after having it for months and I can go on the computer and choose what questions it asks him to try to keep it at his level.
We love this poster. It looks great in my sons Star Wars room. Thanks
amazon.com asked me to write a review. I am happy. They sent me a damaged poster. After just one email, they immediately sent me a new one in perfect shape. No questions asked. I will use this company in the future.
I ordered this poster to take to several conventions to be signed by the various stars of the movie. Poster is a reproduction of the posters hung in theaters, just a bit smaller. I really like it!
If you are a fan of the series and are a Star Wars nut like myself this is a must buy. Just about every character from the series has there own page. No Boba? Huh? I was hoping for more info on each, but for the price this is a good deal. They have a little blurb about the episode and their part. And that’s about it. They only talk about 2 or 3 things each when it comes to their wardrobe/weapons/equipment. If you are looking for an in depth look into the characters from the series you might want to wait for another edition of this or the huge Star Wars Encyclopedia. But, like I said, if you are a huge Star Wars nut like me, order this as soon as you can. For this price it’s a steal.
It requires you to set up a windows live account or you can’t even save your progress in a single player game. I returned the game for a refund. What is there is very awkward and hard to control characters. Very unprofessional design.
