Please, for the love of God, no more pulling Star Destroyers out of the sky. I almost ragequit the game for good because of that sequence, and I had really been enjoying it up to that point.

[Riker]

star destroyers was annoying at first cause it seemed no matter how accurately I followe'd the controls it woulodn't work right. But its super easy when you learn that you want the nose of the ship facing toward you and either level, or upwards a bit, then you can begin ripping it down.

As for sabers, I'm not crazy about him holding 2 sabers like a ffxi NIN but so be it... I hope they give us well animated options between a single, double, and "akimbo" saber option. Like the jedi academy/outcast games, and kotor. Kind of lets your roll play a bit more even though your a set character and not your own, its a moot point imo.

As for the pc version besides for the huge size i havn't looked into fixing I've had no problems with it or any of the dlc ^^

I'd really like to play as Vader, hunting down Jedi some more.

[Arnwulf]

To answer the biggest question about who you are in the sequel, you're a clone of Starkiller.

Wow thats pretty hot looking. Game must be pretty damn near done for them to already be showing what the CE will include.

I never bought Force Unleashed, but the demo was fun <_<. Lot of people had bad things to say about the game but at this point, i've really stopped listening to what most people say about video games (except for about 75% of BG). I remember hearing one qualm about the game being that "the enemies in the end are so strong, you knowing the force is pretty much irrelevant." or something like "at the end, enemies are pretty much immune to the force." And all I can think of is "so the enemies at the end are harder than the ones in the beginning? Who cares?" Granted it was fun to toss storm troopers like rag dolls while taking VERY minimal damage from their attacks, I would expect the game to not be that all the way through.

Loved the first game, it had some flaws and was a little short, but overall I really loved the game.

Yeah, game was a lot of fun. I found the story to be great, and it fit into canon in a good way. Was better than most of anything the prequels had to offer. The gameplay was a bit questionable sometimes, but overall very fun. Man, taking down that star destroyer was fucking epic as hell. One of my favorite scenes in a game. Hopefully they learned a lot from the first game and are able to apply it to this second one.

[Cleverness]

The first one was amazing. While the Star Destroyer part was annoying as hell the first time through, overall the game was very fun to play(albeit kind of short) and the Force powers allowed for alot of grunt torture.

The fights against the Jedi and Sith characters were awesome, especially

Spoiler: show

That whole fight sequence with Vader that leads up to your fight with Palpatine

[Xno Kappa]

I loved the story to the first one but the way they're going about it is complete and utter bullshit. Wasn't it well established no one has ever successfully cloned a Jedi? How convenient. FU1 was a very well written and self contained story in the Star Wars canon.

Not that I claim to know a ton about the SW extended universe, but I'm pretty sure Palpetine had clones all over the fucking place and terrorized the universe after the end of Jedi

In the comics & novels, the Emperor had many clones. Dark Empire is best reference I can think of.

Spoiler: show

The story deals with the return of the villainous Palpatine, having successfully cheated death by becoming a spirit entity that is successfully "reincarnated" through cloning technology.
