I finally sat down to play this game yesterday. I picked it up when it first came out, but just keep doing other things. It might have something to do with my first reaction to it even coming out. 'Oh no, here comes more Star Wars. More things labeled as good simply because it has the logo.' Thankfully, I was surprised.
The storyline so far is rather engaging. It seems like it will be fairly complex, but not over the top. And it is just simply interesting to start out as evil in this universe. The story is very linear, so be prepared if you go into it expecting Knight of the Old Republic.
Seems about enough gameplay for about 8-10 hours. Some extra things in each level that will keep collectors happy. Some spiffy unlocks too to make your character visually entertaining. There is a experience system that feels a little forced into the game. It is definitely not min/max supportive. It feels like they placed it there simply so you wouldn't be able to do everything. Either all at once, or at the beginning of the game. It eventually makes sense though, so I am not going to give it too much guff.
It looks gorgeous on the PS3 though. I assume the XBOX versionlooks nice as well (I am choosing to ignore the existence of the Wii for the time being). The environments are definitely interesting and feel rather immersive once you get farther into the level.
Overall it looks like it will be fun time through the game, even if only for a short while.
