Times Online  (5/5)
It is [...] one of the most purely enjoyable games I have played all year."
Jolt  (9.2/10)
Everything that was good, great, superb and downright fantastic about the original game has been transposed to the backdrop of the far superior original trilogy and, as if that wasn’t enough, actually improved upon. [...] The game looks as perfect as you could hope for. [...] Lego Star Wars 2: The Original Trilogy is quite simply one of the best games you’ll play this year.

It's one of the funniest games I've ever played [...] It's the rare game that parents and kids can play together without either getting bored. [...] One of the easiest recommendations I've ever had to make.
IGN  (8/10)
The bottom line is that it's a heck of a lot of fun and has a great amount of replay value beyond a single play-through. Best family game this year? Probably so.
