Star Wars the Force Unleashed Ups and Downs

Ups

First off, the game had amazing graphics. The characters, the environment, and the CGI cutscenes were very detailed and clear. Walking around in the different worlds it took you too I could not help but admire the background scenery while I was slashing up rebels.

As far as the game play goes, it was fun running around cutting up Imperial robots and cloners. Most of the game was about getting to a specific place and in the process half the galaxy was in your way trying to stop you. If you’re into the constant saber slashing, this game is diffidently for you.

The storyline was good. It was a remake of the graphic novel that followed after the third movie where Anakin turned to the dark side. You play as Vader’s unknown apprentice the whole time. Quite a few plot twists and the ending left off to the beginning of the fourth movie.

Downs

Although the game play was fun, it wasn’t as outgoing as I hoped. Killing hundreds of Imperials over and over using different combos, powers, and lightsabers was cool, but afterwards it just became redundant.. I would of preferred more of a role playing environment that gave you more freedom to walk around and speak to the people around you. The customization of your outfit, lightsaber, and different spells were as close to an RPG that this game was going to get.

The game was too short.
Excellent story line, but it just seemed to abruptly stop. The gameplay levels were not long, and the cutscenes were not much longer. The game should of had more levels and cutscenes. I feel like they might have cut to much out of the graphic novel that the designers thought were irrelevant. But like every Star Wars fan, nothing Star Wars is irrelevant…

Overall I believe it was worth the time to play the game. I enjoyed beating it and others who have done the same will probably say that as well.

Star Wars comic/graphic novel collection

Ultraviolet (Unrated, Extended Cut) $3.62 As an overdose of eye candy, Ultraviolet can be marginally recommended as the second-half of a double-feature with Aeon Flux.
