VGBA's Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Launch Thread

[HalfSwiss]

I know that I'm not the only one hyped for this game here. So tell us your view on this game before it comes out.

0 days. 7 hours. 30 minutes. 1 awesome game.

[jevangod]

I already saw the ending of the game so no need for me to buy it. Ill just download it for free on my psp. But the ending was pretty crazy but kind of lame. But im sure everyone knows what happens already.

No need to support the creators or anything, because that would be ridiculous. :rolleyes:.

Im interested in the game but im not as hyped as everyone else, though ill wait for some more reviews and opinions and then decide.

Im sure I'll buy it, but I'll wait a while.

[Rokudaime]

Thats for 360/Ps3 I guess.
Do anyone got any good review for the Wii?

yes, those are 360/PS3 reviews.
but the wii version is even worse, 6.0 from GameSpot (http://www.gamespot.com/wii/action/starwars2007/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gssummary&tag=summary;read-review)

Who cares what critics say? This game will be great.

[xIAMHUNTERx]

Those are not "bad" reviews... Honestly I think it's just harder to please reviewers in the wake of Grand Theft Auto and Metal Gear Solid.

Again, 6-7s are not bad scores. That's above average. Just because it's not a "masterpiece" doesn't make it bad.

[Rokudaime]

I haven't said that the game will be bad but for me it's not worth 60-70€. I only buy "masterpieces" with long gameplay and high replay value for that price. I know better things to spend my money on.
I'm interested in TFU but I won't buy it until it's around 30€.

[Lenny819]

the wii versions gonna be great. Oviolsy not 360/ps3 graphics but realy good for the wii. Its gonna be great to swing your arm in diffrent ways with the lighsaber and that telekenithis stuff with the nunchuck. also the wii version has a 2p dual mode. Its kinda like Tekken/mortal Kombat, But with 27 jedis from the movies and 9 diffrent stages.

But besides that, seriously you guys gonna have a reviewer determine whether its good or not. Dont you remeber the good old days where you baught a game not knowing what to exspect and loved it. C'mon this is Star wars, whens the last time you played a bad star wars game. (you may have but i never have.) I say you give it a chance, but if you own a wii and dont wanna pay 59.99 then im sure youll get the enjoyment playing with your friends.

if you get bored at least wait for the 2player part.

[GuitarMan]

Personally i cant wait. I get it tomorrow

[Rokudaime]

but back in the days games were much longer (even crappy ones). TFU looks great but it's short and repetitive, so imo it's not a first day buy. I'll definitely buy it when it hits the bargain bins.

KOTOR 2 :p

ah damn, why is the apprentice holding the light saber like a "normal" jedi/sith. it looks more badass in the 360/PS3 version.

[Lestat_the_vampire]

When I found you were weak. now, your hatred is your strength.

I think I am gonna love it.

[Ratchetcomand]

I will most likey rent it first, i like most of the Starwars games but they all have short stories and they can beat so quicky expect for NOTOR.

.

Ya it's not like there are multiple story lines to follow or anything.:rolleyes:

[HalfSwiss]

It's installing on my PS3 as we speak.

[Ratchetcomand]

How long is the game and it worth my $50?

[HalfSwiss]

I heard it takes 10 hours at the most. It was worth my money. It's awesome. I'm stuck already, though. >.<

[Veronica]

I am not really that interested in the game, but maybe a rental.

[GuitarMan]

i heard if you like Jedi Academy and KOTOR and KOTOR2 you'll like this game. I loved all of them so i'll be getting it.

[Karma]

Just watched X-Play and they gave it a 2...man, those guys need to have ever game absolutely perfect, don't they?

Sure, there are some glitches, sure the Euphoria engine isn't as refined as it could have been, sure there are a few camera issues, sure the ship boss battle isn't epic, you freaking nerds....who gives a shit? The game is awesome, the story is kickass, and the gameplay and action is pretty high-octane. I just finished it a couple hours ago, and while it's not as good as KOTOR, it's definitely worth a look.

8/10

I take it that it's a short game?

KOTOR and TFU have nothing in common. KOTOR is one of the best RPGs ever and TFU is a Hack'n Slay game like DMC.

[HalfSwiss]

Master Kento, the Fugitive Jedi - Pie.
General Raham Kota - More pie.
Kazdan Paratus - Actually pretty tough.
Shaak Ti - Pretty easy once you figure out what to do.

I'm almost finished with Empirical Lab. I stopped for awhile because the Purge Troopers bug me.

[Karma]

I take it that it's a short game?

Took me roughly 11 hours, but I'm a big fan of going to midnight openings of games I've been looking forward to (GTA IV, MGS4, Brawl) and then playing for hours.

[GuitarMan]

i just got the game and it is fucking awsome. I wont beat it for awhile though. I have to share turns with it with two other people. >_>

[Ratchetcomand]

I wish my 360 would return from MS soon.

[GrahamZ]

mines took 2 weeks to return


damn red lights lol
and this game is pretty good nice for a game like this from star wars since we didnt have a good one since jedi adademy :D

[GuitarMan]

since we didnt have a good one since jedi adademy :D

that game was the shit :D I still have it.

[Ratchetcomand]

since we didnt have a good one since jedi adademy

You did not like Battlefront I & II or KOTOR?

[GuitarMan]

KOTOR?

KOTOR Was insane.

[xIAMHUNTERx]

KOTOR was wicked awesome.

Anywhoo, I'm on Fellucia... Fellucia? I think that's it... for the second time, and hooollly cow is it amazing.

Normal or Imperial Fellucia? I'm on Imperial.

[xIAMHUNTERx]

Imperial, of course. I just beat it though. The bull rancor was a huge pain. >__O
