The people behind the franchise know that millions of nerds will lap up anything and everything Star Wars. It just has to have the Star Wars name on it. Ergo, no need to spend money on engines, talent, etc.
It's a good example of how fanboyism (once it gets the kind of mass of a Star Wars of Star Trek) actually leads to the production of inferior product. The developers are simply under no pressure to make a good product because it's going to sell well anyway and the point here is to make money. Making games is incidental.

But the concept behind it rocked, you can get in a ship on a star destroyer, and fly over and dock on a corvette and fight inside with no loading seemlessly.
Maybe that is why the graphics take a hit.
You graphics whore :-p
What the heck are they doing?

1. Stormtrooper head pulled off shoulders
2. Animators sharing skeletons so wookies are not big, they just have big heads. Try body-scaling.
3. Particle effect of blast hitting the floor has crappy alpha and is low-res.
4. Virtually no interior lighting, as only objects and characters cast shadows.
5. Space crates... shrug.
6. Guys at the end of the hall all bunched up looking dorky.
7. Jaggies galore. Try taking screenshots with AA on.
8. Stormtrooper arm is clipping at bicep/shoulder.
9. Stormtrooper left knee has no backface on some polys.
10. Animation has stormtrooper holding his gun too far down the barrel.
11. Stormtrooper left foot is detached and broken or something.
12. Stormtrooper left foot is clipping through the ground.
13. Flat white textures for the ceiling. WHA????
Ok, i'm not even an art guy and i can spot all of this.
