    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    Has anyone played the demo on Xbox Live yet? It's freaking great. It's Star Wars meets God of War pretty much, but incredibly fun and entertaining. Looks like the story might not be bad either (even if the trailer kind of ruins it) but what do you guys thinking after playing it? I've gone through the demo 2 times already and I can't wait for this game...

    Hate to burst bubbles but I think there was a post about this a while back. The game looks great, I can't wait for it. When the initial previews were shown, like a year or some ago, it looked a lot better than it does now, but still - looks beautiful.

    Not going to play the demo, especially if it ruins storyline. Although Star Wars storylines never ran real deep.

    There's something extremely satisfying about flinging Storm Troopers into TIE Fighters, and watching it Explode.

    Also infusing your lightsaber with lightning is extremely badass.

    I really enjoyed it too. Can't wait to get all of the abilities, and really unleash hell. Force Grip is a bit awkward to use, though.

    Usually cant download "good" demo's until 2-3 weeks after they are released for silver accounts.

    I played the game on PS3, and I simply love it. Gonna purchase this in few weeks.

    I couldn't decide which system to order mine for. 360 & PS3 are pretty much the same, I figured, but the Wii version would give you the opportunity to feel like you were using the lightsaber, and the force, in real time! Ultimately, I decided the Wii's graphics may not be as great, and the play may be slower. I have a ton of games for my 360, but at the time only had Heavenly Sword & MGS4 for my PS3. So... I ordered it for my PS3.

    The wii version was developed by a different company than the ps3 or xbox360 iirc. I would strongly suggest NOT getting the wii version as it looks kinda meh.

    Star Wars meets God of War sums it up perfectly. Looks like it's going to be great.

    I don't know. It looks like a lot of work is being put into it. It has a lot of potential, it's just all about the execution.

    Waiting on the reviews before I decide on a system. Hoping the Wii version is good but don't have a lot of expectations. Demo is downloading atm for me, but is the game anything like JKII? I thought that was by far the best Star Wars game I ever played.

    Think more like Devil May Cry or God of War with a Star Wars slant.

    Off the bat you start with Force Lightning, Force Push, Force Grip and Force Dash. Dash requires no energy, but Lightning, Push and Grip do.

    Saber attacks can be chained with Lightning and Push. So far, I've managed to saber attack into charged lightning saber attack into a "batter's up" force push attack. Was pretty sweet to watch.

    Force Grip + Saber Impale + Force Push is pretty fun too.

    Apparently there will be a level up system. First level up gave charged Force Push. Was sweet to use. The way the map reacted to force powers was pretty cool.

    Demo ends with taking on an AT-ST and cutting it in half via button press sequence.

    Overall, I hope the final product is as good as the demo, because it was fun.

    Played through the demo twice. Really fun but the normal difficulty felt extremely easy. Hard felt alot more fun just 'cause it was actually possible to die. Managed to kill the AT-ST by knocking it off the edge the second playthrough. 8) Definately be picking this up when it comes out.

    Played the demo last night and I was pretty impressed. Definitely exceeded my expectations. I pretty much liked everything about it, but it seemed a bit slow. That's probably just the Ninja Gaiden 2 frenzy that I've been on talking, though.

    All in all, worth my $60 come September 16.

    Can you be on the Empire? Game is useless if not, who cares about the rebels.
