00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.320
- Hey, it's Eric from Kotaku.com.

3
00:00:05.320 --> 00:00:07.330
I've been delighted by "LEGO Star Wars:

4
00:00:07.330 --> 00:00:09.700
The Skywalker Saga"'s
tongue-in-cheek retailing

5
00:00:09.700 --> 00:00:13.170
of the iconic film series and
its revamped combat system.

6
00:00:13.170 --> 00:00:15.090
The internet was recently set abuzz

7
00:00:15.090 --> 00:00:17.240
by Twitch streamer Red Orb's discovery

8
00:00:17.240 --> 00:00:18.920
of the child flight technique.

9
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:20.610
Kids in the game don't take damage,

10
00:00:20.610 --> 00:00:22.840
so we'll never see a
youngling murder spree.

11
00:00:22.840 --> 00:00:25.100
Using your invincibility
is handy for convoying

12
00:00:25.100 --> 00:00:26.950
across gaps in levels you'd otherwise

13
00:00:26.950 --> 00:00:28.400
be unable to jump over.

14
00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:31.090
While exploits are cool,
for me, this technique

15
00:00:31.090 --> 00:00:32.490
just highlighted LEGO Star Wars'

16
00:00:32.490 --> 00:00:34.680
superb air combo mechanic.

17
00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:36.010
Comparisons have been drawn

18
00:00:36.010 --> 00:00:37.780
to the "Devil My Cry" action series.

19
00:00:37.780 --> 00:00:41.070
And while LEGO may cry does
have a nice ring to it,

20
00:00:41.070 --> 00:00:45.320
the first thing I thought
of was (game hitting SFX)

21
00:00:46.490 --> 00:00:50.250
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and pitched
battles against friends.

22
00:00:50.250 --> 00:00:52.440
The LEGO Star Wars
system makes me feel like

23
00:00:52.440 --> 00:00:55.470
I can pull of legit, multi-hit strings

24
00:00:55.470 --> 00:00:56.760
just like a pro gamer.

25
00:00:56.760 --> 00:00:59.290
All in all, I love how LEGO Star Wars:

26
00:00:59.290 --> 00:01:02.700
The Skywalker Sagas' air combo
system hits that sweet spot

27
00:01:02.700 --> 00:01:05.200
of being approachable for
kids and button mashers

28
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.020
while also rewarding to those
who can get the rhythm down.

29
00:01:08.020 --> 00:01:10.050
How's the air combo system feel to you?
