Anyone else pick it up yesterday?
I got it at Target for 29.99, and they were giving away a 5 dollar gift card when you purchased it, so it was really 24.99.
Last night it took me awhile to decide what I needed to remove from my hard drive to make room for it and then a little more time to install it. By the time I finally got around to playing it, I only had time to get through the first 2 levels. So far I am really digging it thogh. I like how all the characters can now build, and how they added vehicle, it is very sweet.

No, I picked it up last week :)
Completed Ep IV, liked it so much I went out and bought the original LSW (I'd hired it in the past though).
Ep IV did contain the first genuine "controller almost through the screen" for my 360 - the Death Star attack in the X-wing. Why did they have to make it almost impossible to control vehicles, and then make you do an entire chapter controlling one? I fear that Episode V may contain more of the same with Snow Speeders. Still, I reminded myself how flipping annoying the Ep I podrace was in LSW ...
Tonight I completed Ep I. I'll probably alternate between the two titles.

I reall liked LSW I, but this one so far has outshined the other one. They just added so many cool features. I really dig that you can bring in all the characters from the first movie too, so you can have Grievous rescue C-3PO and R2-D2 on Tatooine:)

Trust me....with legos everything old is new again. These games rock.
I'm going to pick up number two very soon....I didn't know you could use your characters from the first one! That rocks! Is it all of the characters you unlocked or just some of them? Can they do any new tricks in the new game?

It is all of them. I don't know if they get any new tricks. I haven't actually unlocked mine yet.
I really think the make your own character thing is hella cool as well.

Oh yeah, the other super awesome thing is the melee attacks. I especially like Leia's slap and chewbaccas army removal.

Well I spent most of this evening at it too, well that is after I mowed, grilled, spent time with the wife and dog. I am off the Death Star now. Woo Hoo. I bought the thing to transfer in my prequel characters, but I haven't played any free mode yet. I am going to finish up on story mode first.

This game is super addictive, so I have to pace myself and not finish it today! I love this game! I want it to be a little longer though, because if I keep at it, I'll be done too soon. I might have to go back to Dead Rising for a few days, then over to GRAW.

I will say that the 360 version hits a critical point in episode 5. IMO to really have fun you should play cooperativly with a another person and not the Comp.
I will also say that it seems more strength has been given to those that aren't Jedi in this game. It's easier to run through this game as Han Solo than it is if you're playing Obi-Wan....IMO

Yeah, I really wish I had someone to play with more often, cause some of the parts would be so much easier than using the dumb computer.

I bought the first one for 30, and thought that was more than a good deal.
This one was 30, but I got a 5 dollar target gift card, so it was like an Uber-Score:)

i like the scene in the trailer when chewbaca rips the storm troopers arms off, and it makes that pop
sound.
truthfully horrific, yet funny.

The no dialogue is awesome....it's amazing what they can accomplish with no speech at all.
Are there notable differences between the XBOX and 360 versions?

Yeah... I've been wondering why the power of the 360 would be needed for a game that gets it's charm from (in part) blocky graphics...

You can mix and match parts, right?
