The unrestrained tale, made under management from George Lucas, is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will help the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi – and face decisions that could change the course of their fate.

As its name implies, The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force by taking full advantage of newly developed technologies that will be seen and experienced for the first time: Digital Molecular Matter (DMM), by Pixelux Entertainment, and euphoria by NaturalMotion Ltd. Paired with the powerful Havok Physics™ system, these new technologies make gameplay only possible on the new generation of consoles. DMM incorporates the physical properties of anything in the environment so that everything reacts exactly like it should – wood breaks like wood, glass shatters like glass, plants on the planet Felucia bend like plants on the planet Felucia would, and more. Meanwhile, as a revolutionary behavioral-simulation engine, euphoria enables interactive characters to go, act and even reflect like actual human beings, adapting their behavior on the glide and resulting in a different payoff every release time.

- The Secret Apprentice won’t just Force push enemies into parapet – agony Force push enemies owing to parapet.
- The Secret Apprentice won’t just Force grip foes to throw them aside – agony Force grip them in midair, zap them with lightning, then drop them to the ground to explode like a bomb.
- In addition to new adversaries made just for the game, such as fugitive Jedi and Force-sensitive Felucians, players will also confront and associate with familiar faces from the Star Wars films, including Darth Vader.
- Visit locations such as Episode III’s Wookiee homeworld Kashyyyk and the floral Felucia, the junk planet Raxus Prime, plus an Imperial TIE fighter construction facility.

By and large not a terrible game. Been playing it for the past 2 days and it is pretty fun. If you are a Star Wars fan this is a must play.

Lucas Arts should have invested their efforts in another Knights of the Ancient Republic game. Don’t buy this one. Rent it. You will be pleased that you saved the cash.

I am not a huge gamer but I recently got the PS3 and have to say I do delight in this game. It is weird to play it as the “terrible guy”, but so far I have to say I delight in the game a lot.

And this time, it’s not even amusing.
This game is so linear, you can’t get lost,
you never have to make any choice,
and it’s the worst graphics I have seen in years.
They fill your view with undefinable garbage,
making the environment dull and repetitive,
and the camera never focuses on the right angle.
Before you know it, tale’s over.
You do accomplish incredible stuff owing to the game.
Such as crashing a Star-Destroyer by Force alone :
by playing with the joysticks for about 4 lousy minutes.
Or beating enemies by copying button choregraphy.
Not anything new, it’s just a carbon copy of Revenge of the Sith.
And the Revenge of the Sith’s tale was not as predictable as
the one your being choked with in Force Unleashed.
And by all means, changing the affect of the lighsaber
or the dress that my character is wearing did not help
me in any way.
The wost thing about this is that Playstation in fact
accepted to endorse the game as it is and to promote it
Huge Time, releasing this mini-game as a Blockbuster !
Please !
Rent it if you still want to make the rich richer.
But you’ll end up with very poor quality, and less cash
in your pocket to spend the next time the damn franchise
dares to disapoint us this way…
You have been warned !

I bought SW TFU for the PS3 on release date and I played it for 2 hours last night. My early depression was wow as the tale evolved. The controls were not terrible at all. You just have to learn it and get used to it. The sound was excellent, though it didn’t feel like it had surround sound or 5.1 support. The graphics were not MGS4 graphics, but they are decent in my opinion. The game play was really awesome! I usually like to play as the excellent guy and scares me a bit to be such a terrible a_ss
Yeah, I’ve killed so much that after a while I didn’t feel terrible for them, but I felt vicious for more killing and started to say “Die mo… fu…” LOL, I guess the potential of the dark side was really with me last night. I can see how it can get dull and repetitive if you play this game on simple or even medium mode and that is the reason why I’m playing on the toughest mode which is I reflect Sith master. I really had a blast playing this game and did not feel disappointed at all! Once you are immersed in this game you are not going to care that the graphics are not as excellent as MGS4 or that the sound is not as incredible as Warhawk. So if you are looking for a splendid tale and fun gameplay this game is for you. But, if you are only looking for stunning graphics and blowing surround sound then you will probably be disappointed. I’m a Star Wars fun and I’m for sure playing this game all the way to the end even if there is no trophy support.
