Star Wars-Force Unleashed

[semillama]

Any one playing? I have to say, the first time you encounter a Rancor - AWESOME!

1. I've heard so many mixed reviews...

It is ever coming for PC?

I have a Wii but I am sure it won't R0X0Rs like the PS3 version.

2. I have the Xbox version

and there's some issues, such as targeting and camera control, that can be really annoying at times. Throwing objects with the force is hit and miss - pun intended!

But the story is interesting, and the fighting sequences beat the movies in terms of excitement and "wow". Definitely worth a play.

3. How similar are the controls, etc. to the KOTOR series?

I played the demo and wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be.

4. Not sure about the controls

it's been a long while since I've played KOTOR. The biggest beef I have with the controls is coordinating the camera angle with combat - it sucks when the camera angle doesn't move with you, so sometimes you can end up fighting someone behind an object and you can't see what's going on without taking your thumb off the buttons to adjust the camera.

Otherwise, it's fine. Not stellar, but it's definitely a better story than episodes 1-3.

5. Just picked this up for the Wii

So far only my son has played. His verdict on the 1st half hour or so: "Awesome! Best game ever!"

Of course, as a 10 year old, his exposure has been limited. :rofl:

Maybe this weekend I'll try playing for a bit. He really seems to be enjoying the motion sensitive controls for light sabers and force powers.

6. There's a visual reference to 'Final Flight of the Osiris' when you land on the Death Star

I seem to be the only one who caught that, but that's probably because I've watched Animatrix a skillion times.
