Best game ever?

Inkeyes from , 22nd July, 2008

I cannot wait for the release of this title. The physics engines ( yes there are 3 used in this game) have all been built from scratch and from trailers and video reviews look like the most realistic engines ever used. The graphics are phenominal and it is promised to be a lengthy game also, plus who can argue with chucking stormtroopers around a room with your mind? no one thats who. I will be deffinatly purchasing this game and i thoroughly recommend this to any star wars fans and new comers alike.

Star Wars Force Unleashed

Profplums from from Newcastle upon Tyne, 20th September, 2008

Bought this game today, and so far have spent 4 hours on it It has the star wars wow factor - sounds and darth vader etc, BUT It is quite repetitive, has terrible camera dynamics, half the time i cant see where i am going, or the camera is inside my body. Graphics are ok, but not a patch on, for example MGS4. I would recommend renting and not buying this game

star wars

ash7612 from from Luton, 20th September, 2008

this game is great, if you love star wars then you must get it, the graphics are decent and the force powers are so much fun, never had i had so much fun gripping a stormtrooper, frying his ass, then send him hurling 100 feet in the air, this is a MUST.

Proven Wrong!

SuperBob5000 from , 15th March, 2010

When I played the demo of this 2 years ago, I was extremely disappointed considering I was really excited for this game. Well lets just say I was absolutely gutted when I played this game because it was everything I ever wanted in a star wars game and I have waited two years just to give it a chance! Moral of this story is I will never judge a game by its demo because they're clearly far from the final product and Force unleashed is a perfect example! The game is great fun and the force powers on it are so fun aswell as the lightsabre combat! If you love star wars and games get this you wont be disappointed!!!

Great Game for any Star Wars Fan.. Can get a little frustrating at times trying to work with the game mechanics but nothing major... Recommend renting first...

Hack n slash

partyon from , 4th December, 2009

I did'nt know what to expect with this game but i stuck it on my list simply because it was Star wars. Turn's out it plays like a hack n slash such as devil may cry etc and that just was'nt my kind of thing. If you love Star wars or games were fighting enemies with massive combo's is the order of the day then it's probably worth a rent. If you love both then it's a must rent.
