Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Review ( PS3 )
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is the game meant to bridge together the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy. While this may be the main draw for fans of series, I found the gameplay to be enjoyable, while not without its faults.You play as Starkiller, the secret apprentice of Darth ...

Star Wars- The Force Unleashed... almost... ( PS3 )
After all the hype surrounding this game, it doesn't quite deliver, but sure doesn't disappoint. TFU is truly a remarkable piece of work, putting together Euphoria and other physics engines that make the game truly 'unleashed'. You start the game off with a killer tutorial playing as the masked metal-head ...

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed ( PS3 )
When I first heard about The Force Unleashed I was more than excited.  In fact I just knew that it was going to be a day one purchase for me.  Yet as time went on and more and more footage was shown I began to grow afraid for the games ...

The Star Wars game we have been waiting for? ( PS3 )
Ever since I first heard word of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, the Star Wars geek inside me could not help but be over-the-top excited for what looked to be the best Star Wars game in a very, very, long time. And overall, it does not dissapoint. There are weaknesses, ...

Star Wars the Force Unleashed is a game which is just mindblowing ( PS3 )
Star Wars the Force Unleashed is a game which is ........... AMAZING. This game is just the best Star Wars game on the planet. You take on the role of Starkiller who is Darth Vader's secret apprentice. In the beginning you are just hunting Jedi but throughout the game you ...

What levels it succeeds on can't match up to its faults ( PS3 )
The Force unleached should of been one of the greatest games of 2008, it should of perched itself as a nominee for GOTY, it should of given star wars geeks all that more canon story to add to their catalogue. TFU was meant to do alot of things, but sadly ...

Let's forget this ever happened. ( PS3 )
I want to enjoy my time with The Force Unleashed, I really do, but Lucasarts clearly had other plans. Every time I play through a legitimately fun section of the game, I am foolishly lured into thinking, for the umpteenth time, "Hey, maybe this will turn out good after all." ...

"Force" is a memorable, though imperfect Star Wars game ( PS3 )
I have to admit up front, I've never been a huge "Star Wars" fan. But when I first saw the trailer for "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed," I was pumped. The prospect of harnessing and wielding the power of the Force first-hand as opposed to watching it in action from ...

A Worried Fan... ( PS3 )
Similar Titles: Prince of Persia, God of War Rating: Really Really Wanted to be Sloshed!!     There are times when a Star Wars game is great (KOTOR, X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter) and when it is horrible (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Masters of Teras Kasi). Upon hearing about Star Wars: ...

Lucasarts Has Taught You Well, But You Are Not A Jedi Yet ( PS3 )
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is basically, part of Lucasfilm's attempt to pull another Shadows Of The Empire-esque multi-media crossover event-thingie, spanning video games, novels and comics, to bridge the gap between the end of the Prequel Trilogy and the Original Trilogy. Consequently, the hype behind the game is huge, ...

A Servicable Addition to the Star Wars Universe ( PS3 )
To any fan of Star Wars, new media for the franchise is a blessing. Whether it's good or not remains to be seen. Luckily, Star Wars: Force Unleashed is a great addition to George Lucas' mythos. For starters, the story is excellent. It has been said countless times before but ...

Oh, How I Wanted to Like this Game ( PS3 )
Lets make this very clear. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is not a good game. I want it to be. I tried telling myself that it was. It is not.That said, The Force Unleashed is not a complete failure of a game. There are two aspects of the game that ...

The Farce Unleashed ( PS3 )
With a very promising concept, a presumably gargantuan budget and a great license, it’s hard to see how Lucasarts could possibly fail with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. On paper it seems like the epitome of Star Wars games, yet somehow, it falls a little short. The Force Unleashed takes ...

Simply a Mess ( PS3 )
This is what happens when profit focused management stifles creative developers. The Force Unleashed has moments of fun but is so weighed down with a feeling of rushed, poor, uninspired design and polish that you will probably start crying (at least on the inside).  The 'Meh, not too bad': Playing as Vader ...

Not what it could have been... ( PS3 )
Overall this is a decent game, though it does have some big flaws. I played through the PS3 version. When you start out, the game is very impressive. You start the game as Darth Vader, then after the first mission you switch over to his apprentice. This game takes place ...
