It may be 30 years old, but there is life in the Star Wars franchise still.  LucasArts announce a new Lego game encompassing all six films in its plot.  Budding Obi-Wan's start warming up those controller fingers

LucasArts have begun to give details on the new Lego Star Wars game; Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga is set to give both seminal sci-fi film and little building block fans something to get excited about.

"As we usher in the next generation of videogame consoles, LucasArts is leading the way in family entertainment," said Jim Ward, president of LucasArts. "We're proud of the phenomenal success of LEGO Star Wars II and how it delivered all the fun, humour and action of the Original Trilogy to the entire family. Now, with The Complete Saga, we're excited to finally offer the entire saga playable in one package for the first time ever." 

"LucasArts was an amazing partner on LEGO Star Wars II, and working with them on The Complete Saga continues to be a great experience," said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. "We're also thrilled to be focusing on next-generation consoles and creating content that plays to the strength of each system." 

From the Trade Federation's "negotiations" with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace to the space battle above Endor in Return of the Jedi, The Complete Saga allows players to kick some brick through 36 Story Mode levels, including Episode II's newly added high-speed pursuit of bounty hunter Zam Wessell. Traveller's Tales has revamped levels from the original LEGO Star Wars to match the gameplay evolutions found in LEGO Star Wars II, and Prequel Trilogy characters can now be mixed and matched with those from the Original Trilogy - more than 160 in all.

Apart from DS owners, it is hard to see what might encourage the hard-core Lego or Star Wars fan who already own the two original games to buy this edition.  Still fanatics are a hard group to pin down when it comes to their favourite subjects.
For the record, Page 2 gives the details on LucasArts' reasons to get into the new release
