Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

Looks like a winner from what I have seen. Set in between episodes III and IV where the player controls Darth Vader's secret "apprentice". Graphics and physics look amazing, as well as fully destructible 3D environments. Revolutionary IMO. Don't know if I'm looking forward to this or KOTOR 3 more... Release date is end of April, I think...

Looks like a very good star wars game. Graphics will be awesome on the 360 and the ps3. Is said that the wii's graphics are just a step up from the ps2 version but the game play is awesome. I didn't think that it was released at the end of the month. i thought it was mid September? Could be wrong though?

The worst thing about it, that it's not on PC.

I'm torn whether to get it for 360 (Awesome graphics) or Wii (Being able to actually control a lightsaber with a stick-like controller has been a dream since watching Star Wars)

Might get it for 360 and then get my brother to get it for Wii

Yeah I personally would opt for the better graphics on offer on the Xbox 360. The motion sensitive controller is extremely cool, but I would prefer a better visual experience as offered by a PS3 or an Xbox 360. I read somewhere that you travel the galaxies and eliminate surviving Jedi, some of which look pretty cool . Apologies on the release date, it is in fact, 17th September 2008 for Australia.

Yeah i think it is very cool that each console version has a different story. The thing that is crap for the wii is that you use the nunchuck stick to move objects and throw enemies insted of using a throwing motion. I don't know what they were thinking there but i would like to use a throwing motion seeing as its more realistic.

Agree, u have a good point there. It takes away the fun too. i wonder if u will actually be able to use the force to rip those huge cruisers out of the sky, as seen here?

Reminds me a bit of Half Life, only this has the potential to be even better, even bigger and so much more fun!
