[edit] Characters

Why is Tusken Raider both in Unlockable AND Unplayable characters? What are your sources for character and vehicle information? KdogDS 14:29, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Import

I have Lego Star Wars: The Video Game on NINTENDO GAMECUBE, so if I get Lego Star Wars: The Original Trilogy for GAMECUBE, how will I be able to import the first game's characters in the second game to get 100 characters like it said in the article? Do you automaticaly get the first game's characters if you have a saved file of the game in the memory card, like in Super Smash Brothers: Melee, you automaticaly recive a Pikmin trophy if you have a saved file of Pikmin in your GAMECUBE memory card?

You need to have your Lego Star Wars: The Video game data saved on your memory card. Then, you can upload the prequal trilogy characters to the new game from your memory card.KdogDS 02:40, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

It'll probably either be like the Pikmin thing or you will have the choice in the options menu—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wizkid357 (talk • contribs) 13:52, 1 July 2006.

If you go to the bar in Mos Eisley Cantina and go to Extras, you have to purchase "Use Old Save" for 250,000 studs. You also have to turn "Use Old Save" on whenever you start the game in order to use the characters. On top of that, when you go into Free Play on a level, it won't select any of your old characters. So, for instance, if you need a Shortie, a Bounty Hunter, and a Sith, and you're still at the very beginning of the game, you'll be forced to replay the level a number of times. So, yeah... there you go. ^_^ PantherFoxie 20:09, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Here's a new twist for you: I have the PC version of LSW: The Original Trilogy and a Mac version of LSW I. So I need to migrate the save game folder from the Mac to the save game folder on the PC. It's not clear where these folders are located on the different platforms, or even whether the save games are cross-platform compatible. Assuming for the moment they are compatible, on the Mac it looks like the save game folder could be ~/Documents/LEGO Star Wars, and on the PC the equivalent of this is C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\My Documents\LEGO Star Wars. Both folders contain lsw_0 and lsw_1 subfolders which contain a pair of .bin files. I don't want to clobber the PC's .bin files with the files from the the Mac, so I tried copying the Mac's LEGO Star Wars folder into a subfolder in the window LEGO Star Wars folder, but I still get "Save not found" when I go to activate the use old save option. Any other suggestions? SteveChervitzTrutane 04:35, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] XBOX 360 and RELEASE DATE

The game will also be available on the Xbox 360! Also, the game's release date is September 12, 2006. Source: [1]

[edit] Levels

What are your sources for that info? Please cite it or get rid of the section.KdogDS 21:46, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Where are on GameSpot did you get the level info? Give a URL. KdogDS 19:55, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lobot and leia and jango

Lobot is confirmed to be a playable character in one of the articles on Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy.

it is confirmed that leia in alien costume form is a playable charecter.

jango fett is also an unlockable on d.s im not sure about ps2 etc.

[edit] Questions

Do the Characters from the first game get the special abilities too? Or just these?

I assume they just take there abilities from the first game ie. Super High Jump, Force, Grappling hook etc. Gran2 10:18, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

So who shoots first, Han or Greedo?

I know that this question doesn't belong here on this page but I don't know where to go with it so, does anyone know what form of combat Shaak Ti uses?

She uses the Form II Makashi lightsaber combat style. For more info on it see this.T-borg 09:43, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

So who shoots first, Han or Greedo?

it's greedo but han shoots faster

This is not a relevant question. Go to Wikipedia:Reference Desk or Han Shot First. bibliomaniac15 23:56, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Avoid the second person

This article has a problem because it doesn't Avoid the second person. I just edited it and that helped a little, but I think there's a lot more to do in this respect. I will try to edit it further soon. On a side note, I'm having problems with linking to a section so if anyone can correct the above link so that it works I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. --luckymustard 19:03, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Episode V

Are we sure about the ordering of the last two levels? seems stupid to me. ...._(Complain)^{(Let us to it pell-mell)} 07:43, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I dont know how, but someone should add the demo as a link.

[edit] Level descriptions seems copyrighted as they were copyed and pasted from a gamespy preview

The preview listed on this page seems copyrighted. (see [2]) On the bottom of the page it says Copyright 1996-2006, IGN Entertainment, Inc. . I don't want to take it off if it's ok to use it.--Team6and7 22:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC) I removed the descriptions if it was okay to use them tell me here or on my talk page.--Team6and7 23:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Late reply: IGN is NOT really GameSpy. Also, a reference could be added. --Addict 2006 19:33, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Release Date?

OK, I'm not sure when this game is coming out. Is it Sep. 7th or Sep. 12? Ric36 17:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I heard September 12 but I'm not exactly sure. Sasuke-kun27 17:40, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[3] On GameSpot it says Sep. 7th. Ric36 15:05, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

I have heard from my sources that the game is due to ship September 11th in the UK, September 12th in the US and September 13th in all other territories. WodeRaider' 16:13, 06 September 2006 (GMT)

[edit] Information for episode VI levels

Where did the levels for episode VI come from?

XBOX 360 Achievements, or whatever the hell it's called. ...._(Complain)^{(Let us to it pell-mell)} 08:59, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not entirely sure its right though, especially as LucasArts have said nothing about it. Plus the ordering of the last two levels is impossible, the duel couldn't happen because Lando would have blown the Death Star up in the previous level, Luke, Vader and the Emperor would be dead! Impossibilities aside, the XBOX 360 Achievements link got deleted, so i'm not that sure. Gran2 10:35, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PC Exclusive Characters

It says that the four Characters not in the first game are possibly the PC exclusive ones, does anybody know which characters these are?

Zam Wessel, a Gungan, a STAP and a Tusken Raider (Even though they're already included) were the characters not in the first game, if I remember correctly. I don't think they're going to be PC exclusive though, ONM UK mentioned them being in the GC version. Kamek24 10:25, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lyn Me

Where does it say that Lyn Me is in the game? I haven't seen anything about her.

It hasn't been confimred she's playable, but the GameSpot Return of the Jedi did say she was in the Jabba's Palace level. Gran2 07:49, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility

I have LSW1 saves on my 360. If I get LSWII for Xbox 1, will I be able to import?

Ask this at the Wikipedia:Reference Desk. bibliomaniac15 23:08, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unconfirmed/Unplayable Characters

I'm confused about this section. Unplayable and Unknown are obvious, but what does it mean by N/A? Does that mean they're not in the game at all? Kamek 15:44, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

NA means unknown, they were all the same thing once, people changed them, I think I may have a few times, I'll change them all to Unknown. Gran2 15:48, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

FYI, check N/a. --luckymustard 21:16, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article feels bloated

Just arrived on this page and it seems like there's a lot of detail that isn't necessary. Although I appreciate the amount of work here it feels as though a long list of every character's abilities and every single level is not needed and detracts from the article. I would suggest that some example levels are mentioned and the characters abilities are touched upon rather than the two massive lists we currently have. I'll be more than happy to do this if I can get some agreement from the authors of the page. Speedything 13:47, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

I do think the playable characters and level need to remain. But the unplayble/unconfitmed character section doesn't really serve a point. We can put them on the playable character section when they are confirmed as playable. And Bounty hunter mode doesn't really need a whole section to itself, in my opinion. Maybe a paragraph, but not what it is. For example, listing the playable characters for it isn't necessary, you could just say that all bounty hunters from the game are playable in bounty hunter mode. But anyway, I agree that some needs touching up. But not necessarily the levels or characters abilities (although I kind off, slightly, see your point) as they are informative. Wow that was long. Gran2 15:07, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE ARTICLE!?!??

All the vehicle info and after that is on the right side of the page. What's up with that? I can't fix it. KdogDS 22:18, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't think we have to worry about it any more.May the Edit be with you. T-borg (drop me a line) 22:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

I fixed it. A user added some extra information to one of the tables, but accidently messed up the formatting.SkorponokX 22:32, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] It came out today

I live in the UK and today, while I was at rugby practice. My brother saw it in Sainsbury's, he got it and is currently playing it upstairs right now.Someone change the release date?86.142.132.24 13:48, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

It's true, here in the UK it has been released. Although I think its just some shops releasing it early. I got the PC and DS version earlier from GAME. The banthas are awesome! Gran2 14:08, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Eh, they're kinda slow. I noted this on the page.86.142.132.24 14:43, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

All I know is I went into GAME yesterday (Friday) and it was on sale - One of my friends works there, and he said somewhere had broken the street date. This meant, by GAME policy, they could sell it too! This also happened with Dead Rising, but only by one day AFAIK.
I would put it on the Wiki page myself, but I don't know the day it was 'released'. JaffaCakeLover 19:05, 9 September 2006 (GMT)

[edit] PSP level?

Someone added that there's an all-out deathmatch in the PSP version. Any sources? bibliomaniac15 23:07, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, the PSP section sounds questionable to me, but I only edited it grammaticaly. MafiaCapo 01:17, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Nope. --Addict 2006 06:23, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources for the Bounty Hunter Levels?

Now that the 10 bounty hunter levels have been listed, where is the source of the information? 66.82.9.42 19:35, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

I assumed someone had got that far and actually played them in the game. I haven't got that far so I can't verify it yet. Gran2 20:14, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

I added them last night as I beat all the bounty hunter levels after I beat the Episodes. I have screen shots of it if you don't believe it. Djarum0 06:37, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

No need to, I just wanted to make sure. 66.82.9.58 22:07, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A few questions

Is the game free roaming? (with a map also like jak gta and state of emergency?) or is it like the first game where you where free only in a parking lot and inside a restaurant?

Secondly i would like to ask about the characters are there more characters than the original excluding the bonus characters that can be unlocked using a memory card with a lego star wars original game save?

Please answer as quick as you can—Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.76.46.249 (talk • contribs)

This isn't really the place to ask questions... Forums'd be more suitable...

Anyway, 1) No, it's the same as the first game, only you're in Mos Eisley cantina now. 2) There are probably about the same amount (50+), I don't know the exact numbers. +Fin- 15:43, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Freeze

in the ewok level in return of the jedi, when i use the at-st walker to destroy a gate, the game freezes on me. i played this level 2 time already in story mode, but it still freezes on me. what should i do? i dont even know where my gamecube manuel is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.229.47.92 (talk • contribs)

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia.NOT a cheat site. Go ask some where else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!--Suit-n-tie 04:25, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] the free mode

In the free play is the cantina bigger that the first game, and can you drive vehichles in the free mode? Also can you switch between characters like lthe first game?

Go to www.google.com type in 'Lego Star Wars II Review' and click the first link you see.

[edit] customised characters

How many masterpieces can you create using the character modification mode? I mean customized characters using lego parts

I'll answer all of these at once. First off stop useing wikipedia as a forum, I will only answer the questions this time, after this, go ask at a proper place! 1. Huh? 2. Yes 3. Duh! 4. As many as you want, but you can only have two at one time. You sound like someone who has never actually played the game. Now please don't do this again. Gran2 16:06, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Really. Go away, and ask a forum not Wikipedia. If you are users check out this page.--Suit-n-tie 23:56, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Title

It's II, not 2. I know that that's a ridiculous detail to point out, but Star Wars commonly uses roman numerals and I think it should be changed back to II. 66.82.9.53 00:13, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Levels and vehicles

Where did the level info and vehicle info go? Gran2, you said we are not allowed to have levels on here. What do you mean? Who says we can't have levels?L0b0t 15:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Falcon9x5 removed as 'its against WP:Not'. I actually read through the whole, thing and I didn't see a single about not listing characters or levels. But he used it as proof, and I wasn't going to put them back on in case I got warned/blocked. If we can all agree to it here, I have no problem with having it back, in fact I want it. Gran2 16:10, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the fast response. I say we put it back in. I've been over WP:NOT backwards and forwards and see nothing on point.L0b0t 16:42, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

The level information has been deleted again. I too looked at WP:NOT, and all it says about game guides (which is what Falcon9x5 refered to the section as) is that wikipedia shouldn't be including walkthrough type material. A list of levels with characters/enemies/etc. is not a walkthrough. I don't want to start an edit war, but it doesn't appear like he's reading this part of the talk page. I'll put it back, with a notice not to delete it without coming here first. –Dvandersluis 13:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi hi. Sorry, I'm on a semi-wikibreak at the moment, and am generally just deleting things on sight - haven't checked my watchlist in ages. Apologies for this. I do think the list of levels falls under game guide/instruction manual, but at the moment, I'm not going to debate it. As it is is fine. Sorry again for not reading the talk page :S Fin©™ 17:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About "The Title"

Someone must have moved it because I've gone on the article and it's now called "Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy". --82.39.140.191 10:43, 12 October 2006 (UTC)Indie.Bones

I've just done the copy/paste thing so the page is now called "LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy" --Indie.Bones 10:53, 12 October 2006 (UTC)Indie.Bones

• Try checking this:Talk:Lego_Star_Wars_II:_The_Original_Trilogy#The_Title before you vandalising. The Kinslayer 11:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

It appears someone messed up a page move or something as the article now justs redirects to itself. Could someone with more experience fix it. SkorponokX 11:13, 12 October 2006 (UTC) (I see its fixed thanks Kinslayer)

No problem, that moron Indie Bones just deleted the entire article and put up a looping redirect that didn't go anywhere. If he'd bothered to read the discussion, he'd have seen why it's at Lego and not LEGO. There's being bold and then theres being stupid. The Kinslayer 11:16, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] level reviews

I don't think that that those level reviews in the level section should be in this article they should be here. These seem like these could of just been written up and that thats not allowed or be copied straight off of a website.I took off previews of the levels before the game came out because they came straight off of a preview that IGN did . --Team6and7 00:39, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] no offense, but

in this game, the snow troopers (and in the movies, too) look disturbingly like, ahem, KKK members. It just seems so weird. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.205.129.139 (talk) 06:56, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

Well, skimming through the KKK article, and looking at the pic on the Snowtrooper article, they kinda look similar. Though I would say the KKK would have different masks. I don't know really. --Addict 2006 20:26, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jukebox/radio in Jabba's Palace chapter

I think it plays a version of Imperial March (or a loop of the main part), but I don't really know which. It's either "Rage" or "Leviathan", but it does have a rock background to it. (They were created for Star Wars: Force Commander.) Does anyone know what version of Imperial March they play in this level? --Addict 2006 20:19, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

It's also in The Great Pit of Carkoon as well: It's an excerpt from the Imperial Rage mix of the Imperial March. --Addict 2006 19:17, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] x4 & x6

How much is x4 and x6? I have x2 and x8 and x10 but I don't have x4 or x6. How much are they? --Danny Phantom ^Phantom... 03:43, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I really can't say anything due to WP:NOT. Google search for something like "Lego Star Wars II Extras". --Addict 2006 06:26, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

x4 is 6mil & x6 is 12 mil 71.65.34.160 04:45, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lando kissing Leia's hand

I tried that on my PSP version - it didn't work. Anyone suggest something? --Addict 2006 06:28, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

I was going to remove it yesterday, I'm was pretty sure its a load of rubbish. Gran2 07:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

It does indeed work, at least on my Xbox. All you have to do is face her as eithe Lando and press the attack button. Presumably your PSP version doesn't include this feature, for some unknown reason. Judas Mc'bees 22:11, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Really? It just sounded so pointlessly obscure, but there we go. Gran2 22:15, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, it does work, on the PC version, at least. --May the Edit be with you, always. T-borg ^{(drop me a line)} 22:28, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Saving a game on the PC version

Hi. My son and his friend are playing LSW2 on the same computer. Recently my son complained about his friend, who overwrote his savegame. I told him that they should use two different savegames (one saving in slot 1, the other in slot 2)... But I wasn't able to show them where they could save their game. I looked at the canteen and in the game menu but found nothing. Could anyone help? Has this game only an autosave-funtion? Is it possible to switch the autosave-slot from slot 1 to another slot when someone else starts the game? I would look at this game by myself, but I am afraid of overwriting the savegames of my son in slot 1 by this autosave-funtion.

Thanks in advance Daniel

[edit] Massive Clean Up

I just went through the article and took out swathes of lists (characters, levels, unlockables, etc). These sort of things are what you'd find in a Gamefaqs guide, or on a fansite, but not here. Indiscriminate lists of informations and game guides are part of WP:NOT (what wikipedia is not). A simple few sentences are fine to describe the characters, levels etc, not the ridiculous amount of information that was there (each character, their abilites; each level, characters, brief summary, etc). Fin©™ 13:10, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah this article has just descended to nothing, so I really don't care about the lists anymore. Good job. Gran2 15:27, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay having been working on this page for a while it is now a lot better than it was. I've greatly expanded the reception section, and added alot of refs. It still needs work before I give it a try at GAC, but I think now it is B class. Gran² 10:43, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gonk Droid?

Can the gonk do anything at all? Please tell me, thx. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.2.26.20 (talk) 21:55, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
