OK, it's a PS1 mag, but the section is PS2. They gave Starfighter 6/10! They have *totally* lost the plot (not to mention about 150,000 readers) now.

Yep, I thought they were extremely harsh with it.
They mention slowdown - have you experienced any? I haven't!

I`ve had none in One player, and only a little in two player (always on the canyon race).
I think that they're just jealous.
The only let-down is lifespan, but not much

6 out of 10 - Thats really bad. I think it deserves at least 9!!
I havent experienced any slowdown whatsoever, even when there are loads of vehicles on screen at the same time!!

No. I've only opened aboput 50% of them. I'm not to bothered about the rest because they not that good. If they were then they wouldn't be 'hidden' and so would be freely available.
This is just my view and you all have your own opinions. Im not the sort of person who likes replaying games to get all the hidden bonuses. I rather see a software company use that space to lengthen the game.
Star Wars is such a great film because of the personality of the characters and there storyline/life. Why not base the game on these characters rather than bring in new faces whom you'll never here of again??

If you tried getting all the gold medals you`d see that it isn`t all repetative. When I worked through them all, I found that there were many different tasks to do, of which some were very tricky. For example, on Midnight Munitions Run, one bonus mission is to destroy all AMTs, which sounds easy, except that depending on your altitude whilst flying through the canyons, you may well miss them all together. There are also extras such as destroying all the little miner droids which can be tedious but fun.
The bonus missions are great, though Space Sweep was a little hard at first. Then there are the bonus craft, including Infiltrator which is a very rewarding ship. Once you have earned it you can replay the other missions, and watch as it punches through the shields of enemy craft with ease.
I have put quite a few hours into it, and I still have 2 levels to go on difficult, so I think perhaps you have missed the true depth of the game.
