Amazon.co.uk Review
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, set in the interval between The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, is a first-person adventure which lets you step into the role of the galaxy's most heavily armed bounty hunter, Jango Fett, as you track a renegade Jedi across the galaxy, collecting information (and bounties) along the way.
In addition to Jango's trademark dual blaster pistols, your armour bristles with gadgets and weaponry: darts, flamethrower, blowtorch, scanner, cable snare and--of course--a missile-launching jetpack. Utilise this arsenal to battle hordes of uncooperative guards, fend off rival bounty hunters, scale precipitous skyscrapers, and capture fugitives--dead or alive. The basic controls are surprisingly easy to master, and you've got enough armament at your disposal to fight your way out of almost any situation. Still, some finesse is required: as fun as it is to walk into a room and blast everything in sight (and it is fun--especially when you're the one wearing the jetpack), you may discover when the smoke clears that the guy you just fried was worth twice as much alive. Oh well...
The complex storyline is unravelled with extended cut scenes that let you rest your thumbs while Jango follows up the next lead (Star Wars fans will appreciate the quality and detail of these scenes, as well as the fidelity of the story arc--namely how Jango is chosen as the model for the clone troopers in Episode II). And anyone familiar with the LucasArts suite of games will not be disappointed by the superior graphics, music, sound effects and fully realised characters and locations. The pace of the game is up to you: methodically seek out the secrets of each level, or ruthlessly blast your way to the big payoff. --Maile Bohlmann
Product Description
Through Jango Fett--father of Boba Fett--players will plunge into the dark, deadly world of a bounty hunter. Inspired by events between Episode I and Episode II, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter presents an original, compelling, third-person action experience that establishes Jango Fett's place in the Star Wars galaxy and his connection to the notorious Clone Army. The game draws players into Fett's sinister and seedy world, where thieves and assassins thrive. Using his cunning and a host of deadly skills, Jango Fett ventures into the rarely explored dark side of the Star Wars universe to track down the elusive leader of a mysterious and deadly cult. All the while, he'll compete against a brutal rival from his past in a quest to capture the ultimate bounty, dead or alive.
Gameplay emphasizes intense combat and physical action in the relentless pursuit of prey across six fantastic worlds and 18 levels. Jango Fett faces off against an onslaught of the worst scum in the universe, including crime lords, corrupt politicians, and enemies of various species. He is equipped with an arsenal of powerful weapons such as dual blaster pistols, a flamethrower, missiles, and a distinctive jet pack.

4.0 out of 5 stars
rip-snortling action adventure,

This review is from: Star Wars: Bounty Hunter (PS2) (Video Game)
I purchased this title because of the Star Wars logo on it and thankfully wasn't disappointed, as I had been with Star Fighter. A glorious opening sequence drops you straight into the action pistols blazing, as you are forced to somersault around a pit-fighting arena, dodging the attacks of a lumbering fighting beast, from a third person view. The controls are remarkably easy to master, intuitive and dynamic. And the graphics are (as you would expect with other titles like LOTR The Two Towers on the market) gorgeous. The environments are highly detailed and you recognize many familiar alien and droid species and models (respectively). So, why not five stars? As a film spin off? Beautiful.

THERE IS NO PLACE TO HIDE!,
This review is from: Star Wars: Bounty Hunter (PS2) (Video Game)
Star Wars Bounty is the best star wars game for PS2. In fact, it's probably the best of them all! The graphics are absolutely amazing! The controls are great! All the action and fun is perfect, and the sound quality is outstanding!I think the whole game is just fantastic. It is both entertaining and challenging, especially the last two levels - they are solid! I love it when Jango has a series of amazing weapons that James Bond or Indiana Jones couldn't possibly imagine. But I think the only bad thing is the ending (when Jango faces the dark Jedi to complete the game) is just too easy. And I think it would have been cool if there had been a secret level, like Jango Fett fighting Obi-One, or Jango fighting Windu. But over all, the game is great and worth getting, and you could just keep playing on it over and over again until you think the hunt ends!

THE STORY:A mysterious man named Tyranus hires several bounty hunters, including Jango Fett and his nemesis Montross, to kill Komari Vosa, the insane leader of an insidious cult. As Jango, you must follow leads from planet to planet in search of the Bando Gora cult, all the while keeping your helmet scanner tuned to any other bounties along the way. The game takes you to Outland Station, the skyscrapers of Coruscant, the prisons of Oovo IV, the jungles of Malastare, the deserts of Tatooine and the graveyards of one of the moons of Bogden. WHAT'S GOOD: WHAT'S BAD: Certainly the best Star Wars game on PS2 (it is, after all competing with the dire 'The Clone Wars'), 'Bounty Hunter' will have you blasting criminals (and torching innocent bystanders -HAHAHA!) for hours on end.
