    I question God's existence if he'd allow such a sacred thing to be.. contaminated. :(

    Rumor has it that those who play this game would be secretly recorded and uploaded to youtube under the name "New Star Wars kid"

    This has got to be the worst insult to the Star Wars Universe I have ever seen.

    I still prefer Dance Dance Revolution to all these other silly games, even if the name itself is a bit of lie :p

    Kinect dance titles = fine... some are dopey, but they can be entertaining especially after a few beverages and some peer pressure. (Go dance, who cares how silly we all look...)

    But yeah... that's a sell-out.

    Will not own, and frankly after Jar-jar, I stopped be interested in anything Star-wars. The droids were perfect comedy relief mixed with Han Solo's "scruffy" style. Jar-jar was so annoying I believe the entire first series would have been better with him completely edited out.

    Dance Dance revolution with Solo... kinda like a peace rally led by KKK.

    I'm feeling like a star,
    you can't stop my shine
    I'm loving Cloud City,
    my head's in the sky

    I'm solo, I'm Han Solo,
    I'm Han Solo.
    I'm Han Solo. Solo.

    Yeah, I'm feeling good tonight,
    Finally feeling free and it feels so right, oh.
    Time to do the things I like,
    Gonna see a Princess, everything's all right, oh.

    No Jabba to answer to,
    Ain't a fixture in the palace zoo, no.
    And since that carbonite's off me
    I'm livin' life now that I'm free, yeah.

    Told me to get myself together
    Now I got myself together, yeah.
    Now I made it through the weather,
    Better days are gonna get better.

    I'm so happy the carbonite is gone.
    I'm movin' on.
    I'm so happy that it's over now.
    The pain is gone.

    I'm putting on my shades
    to cover up my eyes
    I'm jumpin' in my ride,
    I'm heading out tonight

    I'm solo, I'm Han Solo,
    I'm Han Solo.
    I'm Han Solo. Solo.

    I'm picking up my blaster,
    put it on my side.
    I'm jumpin' in my Falcon
    Wookie at my side.

    I'm solo, I'm Han Solo,
    I'm Han Solo.
    I'm Han Solo. Solo.

    What I really say to any more George Lucas enhanced Star Wars and this absurd motion control game.
