What It Is

Hold on to your helmets because Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is going to be a bumpy ride! This action packed game for Nintendo GameCube and Playstation 2, pits the player as Jango Fett, the galaxy’s most feared and ruthless bounty hunter, as he races from one star system to the next in hot pursuit of the elusive leader of a mysteries cult. The game’s action takes place between Star Wars: Episodes I and II, and provides us with some background information on Jango’s connection to the notorious clone army.

Why It’s Fun

Star Wars fans have had a long running interest, and even obsession with, Boba Fett, Jango’s son and clone. Star Wars: Bounty Hunter provides players with an awesome look into the world of the Fetts and their sinister activities. This game also gives us a great glimpse into some familiar Star Wars settings like the city-planet Coruscant, where, as Jango, the player explores the planet from the bowels and lower levels of the streets to apartments and promenades of the towering skyscrapers.

Who’s Going To Love It

As you may have guessed, Star Wars fans will love this game, however, that shouldn’t discourage anyone who isn’t a fan of the movies from playing the game. Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a great game with vibrant graphics, multi-layered levels and free-ranging action.

What To Be Aware Of

Although, this is not a blood-and-guts fighting game, it does involve shooting weapons and killing foes. Anyone familiar with the Star Wars Galaxy will tell you, the Bounty Hunters are not the good guys.
