Entertaining concept, but difficult to play

Pros: Amusing concept.
Cons: Difficult to play because of bad camera angles.
I picked this game up because it was well rated and it seemed like an interesting approach to the Star Wars saga. I quickly learned to regret my decision to buy this game for the DS. It may simply be an issue of a poor port to the DS platform. But I found it to be very difficult to play this.
The primary issue I have with this is that the camera angles are never in quite the right direction. You frequently have to navigate narrow bridges that, because of the camera angle, do not match any of the directions from the d-pad. As a result, you have to zig-zag in an attempt to remain on the platform. I also ran into several occasions where the people I was fighting were off the screen because my character was running towards the screen.
To put it simply, I'd have more fun staying late at work than I did trying to play this on the DS. Unfortunately, while it sounds like this is a great game on the PC, the same can't be said for the DS port.
