Same here looking great....what you think bout throwing people hehe..:norty:
kick ass.. bring on the demo
Got it now for the Wii looking great i can tell.:)
however for the pc it wont come out they tell.
Think they forgot that the pc-gamers are the ones that have make them famous.....:ranting2:
glad I got a Wii :D
The demo on the 360 and PS3 is good fun, however that apparently is all of the best bits from the game. The game itself isn't supposed to be that good :(
Quote from Penny Arcade (http://www.penny-arcade.com/2008/9/8/)
QuoteI really liked The Force Unleashed in its largely theoretical demo form, but the finished product (at least, on the 360 and PS3) is significantly harder to love. Significantly, as in, I doubt very seriously that Gabriel will complete it. I have done so, culminating both of the game's moral vectors, largely to verify my prior assertion: that they were prepared to deliver a significant, substantial middle chapter. This has absolutely occurred. And if you can find someone else to play the game while you watch, you might be approaching the optimal scenario.
When you are in relatively large environments, amorally doling out grievous injuries with the help of an omnipresent Force, it really seems as though everything is going to be alright. As one cuts a swath through the universe, you gain "levels," which confer a kind of currency on three distinct tracks of development. The guy you played in the demo is some kind of Star Pimp - you have a long way to go before you reach those heights. Generally, you can do things how you want to and still succeed.
Things go less well at virtually any other time. Battles against "boss" characters often feel strangely disconnected from the rest of the game, outside of the skills and techniques you've developed. Strange sound bugs, long falls that don't kill the player but trap them forever outside of the game. Rude, abrupt cutscenes that ransack narrative pace. Pulling a Star Destroyer into a Space Station should have been one of this year's best moments - but the way they chose to model this in gameplay completely ruins it. An odd feedback mechanism combined with a frankly inscrutable user interface and zero help for the player turns the moment to ash.
Much as been made of their materials simulation and physics technologies, and depending on the material being simulated, the results can be extremely compelling. Other things, like Vader's cape let's say, in the first five minutes of play, just look wrong in a way that animation by hand could never achieve. The material this cape is made from - I'm hesitant to call it cloth - takes its orders from some bizarre parallel dimension, flexing and jiving in time to some secret music. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, it's more good than bad, but there are moments where we glimpse a radical interpretation of physical law.
I look on the time I invested with affection, but only in the final accounting - and even then, you and I would almost certainly weigh things differently. The art is far, far beyond anything they've done to date - the environments, the costumes, everything aches with heft and purpose. They've presented a story here that really, honestly makes you think about Star Wars. It is very rarely Star Wars of the jubilant, all-ages, "Jub Jub!" variety. If you've seen the Clone Wars movie, you know it to be a greasy tendril to snare young people. This is not. This doesn't feel like the sometimes controversial Expanded Universe. There are moments where it feels like new Star Wars, something I would never have thought possible.
I can see exactly where he's coming from. The demo is fun the first few times but after that it gets very 'samey' I think this'll be a 'rent first' title to see if it really is all it's cracked up to be.

well through "negotiations with the PO today i got my game, completed it today... 4 hours of thuroughly fun gaming imho
TBH. well worth the buy, as i previously mentioned the graphics arent that good compared to the 360, PS3 version but it really only effects the FMV's and intro.
the gameplays fantastic and i only stood on my dog twice, but as you really do have to use the Wiimote like a lightsaber its well worth my dogs limp XD
note on gameplay, does get fairly repetitive, but the more you play the more unlocks and more moves/combos you get.
the fighting itself is obviously the main point and feature and its amazing, totally customizable, combo;s are entirly up to you and theres plenty of em to choose from.
dont wanna give anything away but the storyline, though fairly short for a fighting game, is a good one and adds some good new characters.
all in all... BUY IT
Id recommend if your thinking of buying the game you get it from tesco's. Their price for the 360 is only £30 :), i bought a copy tonight and shall give it a play tomorrow if i get time :)

ASDA are doing it for £30 as well, also GAME should price match if you collect the points.
