 This game is broken December 27, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The game looks great, a Star Wars fan's dream. The story is almost fitting for the Star Wars Universe....BUT you will die alot, I mean alot. This is not for the game being hard...NO it's for the gameplay to be broken. You can tell the developers rushed this one! The glitchy deaths, the uneven platforming and oh and there's a part were the game gives you the wrong instructions! It seems no testing was done during post production. Pass on this one, maybe a rent only if your hard core into Star Wars. You will be mad playing this game. Thumbs way down.
 simply amazing December 27, 2008

now i'm not sure if you're not a star wars fan whether you'll like this game or not. graphics and gameplay wise this is a very good game. so you don't have to be a star wars fan to enjoy this title. if you've got a great sound system then you'll enjoy this game even more (whether you're playing on a home theater system or console speakers with a sub). you can't play this game on a tv with the sound coming from the tv, it's just not right. either use good headphones or get a decent speaker set up going because this is one game you don't want to miss out on with the whole experience!
 Force it December 26, 2008
It is like most Star Wars games. The problem I have with the game is that it takes forever to load anything. Overall the game is fairly decent but I am glad I bought it used and not full price otherwise I would be mad that I spent so much money.
Power of The Force December 19, 2008

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is an amazing game that any fan of the Star Wars movies can enjoy. The story takes place between Episodes III and IV, and you play as Darth Vader's secret apprentice, Starkiller.
The gameplay is heavy on the action, with an emphasis on using your force powers. You'll also be using your lightsaber a lot, which is fun. You'll get to shock several enemies at once with force lighting, force push enemies into walls or force fields (destroying their bodies instantly), pick up and throw enemies, pick up an enemy and impale them with your lightsaber, or throw your lightsaber like the world's baddest boomerang.
All the while, you'll be leveling up your force powers and your abilities, plus unlocking new moves and combos. Even after you've beaten the game, you can start a new game with all your current stats, and continue to level them up until you've finally maxed out all your powers and created the ultimate Sith.
The story in this game is just great, I'd even say better than some of those prequel movies. The characters come to life with great animation and voice acting. It's just a great Star Wars story from start to finish, and has two different endings.
The graphics in this game are great too, with diversity in the worlds you travel onto. You'll travel to the Wookie homeworld, to a planet made of giant plant life, to a planet that is nothing but a giant junk yard, to inside a Tie fighter factory, and even into the Death Star itself. Some of these worlds you'll end up going to twice, but you're not backtracking through the exact same level as before. It'll be a new level, just on the same world. And especially if you have an HDTV, you'll defiantly be in for a treat visually.
Unfortunetly, the game is rather short. It should only last around 6 hours or so. So it's a bit of a quick wham bam thank you ma'am type of game. You'll be wishing there was more by the end of it, or wishing they had thrown in a couple of more levels to help make it longer. But like I said before, you can always play through again and continue to level up and to get the alternate ending.
If you're a Star Wars fan and love video games, then this is a great game to own. The story is awesome and shouldn't be missed, and using the powers of the force to throw around storm troopers like little ragdolls shouldn't be missed. The game also has several different difficulty levels, so you should be able to find just the right setting that balances out enjoyment with challange.
Not KOTOR by any means December 12, 2008
I'll be honest and say that I only played this game once for a couple of hours or so. I was so completely unimpressed that I didn't want to play any further. I can't comment on the story but I will say that from what I've heard about being Darth Vader's apprentice and so forth, it sounds interesting. However, I couldn't get past the inaccurate aiming and controls. It just felt like I was pressing buttons and aiming with no real ability to choose my target or anything of that nature. You just have to aim in a general direction and hope for the best. I do think that I'm slightly biased since I've played the amazing Knights of the Old Republic, which is, in my opinion, the greatest Star Wars game ever made. This is a good rental, I suppose, but if I could choose again, I definitely wouldn't purchase this game again (the one I did buy has already been traded in).
