Speaking of freezing, frickin' Gamespot sold me a defective memory stick, so I can't save my game (and consequently my review will be delayed for a couple of days).

While I have no idea how it works, the sheer volume of carbonite required to freeze Han or any person is far more than could even be carried by the stormtroopers in ESB, let alone fit inside a clip. I guess I'm just not cut out to play Renegade Squadron.

An interesting point, but maybe I'm just more lenient. I've always taken powers and abilities in Star Wars video games with a grain of salt when it comes to that sort of thing (not that I'm trying to root for Renegade Squadron), as the Star Wars games are largely responsible for making Force Lightning so prevalent in the EU, instead of being some high level Sith mastery as was originally implied by the Return of the Jedi. In retrospect, when we watch the final emotional scene in the Skywalker saga, Palpatine is pulling off a relatively amateur maneuver.
