I wouldn't want to break up with a emotionally abused Sith Apprentice. I don't think a restraining order would cover it.

If only they focused a lil more on the sabre combat and made the game more like Jedi knight.

If you ever need to cut a trailer, get Lucas Arts to do it. They've made some sweet Star Wars trailers lately, no?

@amoseem: I have seen worse, too, but that doesn't mean this is good. And I officially grew up at least ten years ago, so I think I got that part covered already.

It's posible because SW universe have cloning equipment. 
For example in the middle of first SW:TFU Starkiller was  killed by Vader. Then Vader used his clone.

This really excites mainly because i love it when something impossible is shown i just wanna know how he is alive again and before you ask this is clearly a sequel and not a prequel because he is sporting blue lightsabers meaning he is a jedi

@GoonerGod:
OR he killed two jedi with blue lightsabers and pilfered thier weaponry. 
 
I hope this will be good. I liked the first one, but I was disapointed with it's lack of multiplayer. Obviously not all games benefit from having a multiplayer mode, and it can take away from the game. But when The Force Unleashed was announced I immediatly thought of how much I loved playing games like Jedi Acadamy online, and how this game would be like a fantasticly amazing Jedi Acadamy online with updated graphics, controls, and gameplay sensibility.

It is modeled directly on Sam Witwer, and he provides the voice.

This trailer just made me question the economy of the star wars universe. Building two death stars aside, I can't imagine it would be inexpensive to own a creature that damn big just to have him get slaughtered by a super force wielder.

i'm not partial to the game's method of trying to one up the movies. 
 
what, you thought darth vader had force powers? FU we got this dude named Starkiller he can destroy mother F'n ships with his MIND. 
 
what you thought the Rancor was bad ass? F you again, we got something bigger and it mother F'N looks like an ape. 
  
next game i fully expect a Death Star the size of a galaxy powered by 3 black holes.

Great trailer. I'm hoping they fix all the things from the first one. All the problems in the first one kept it from being one of the best Star Wars games.

Alright I don't quite understand, this is awesome and all and hopefully they'll get rid of all the previous game's problems but 
 
*SPOILERS!!!* 
 
Didn't he die in the good ending and live but all deformed in the bad ending? So when did this happen? unless it's like a prequel it doesn't make much sense, and the number 2 don't make it sound like no prequel hmmm... Confused I am.

@Carlos1408: It cannot be a prequel because of the blue lightsabers remember he is sith at the beginning of TFU and has a red one so it must be a sequel on a further alternate timeline

I really, really, really liked the story for the first one. 
 
If the team who wrote that wrote one of the new movies, they might not have sucked.

That was slightly mind blowing. Most people would disagree with me, but TFU was effing awesome in my mind.

So how is this game going to work? If people remember some of the alternate endings suggest that Starkiller can't be in a new game. Same goes for Vader unless those are just echoes from memories.

Anybody else think that the Star Wars TV series set to debut in 2012 may follow The Force Unleashed story? They are both set between Episode 3 and Episode IV.
 
Anyways, in regards to the video. I don't see how this works. He died in the first game, and it can't be a prequel, beings as he has his blue lightsabers.

would be odd if it's a prequel for several reasons,
 
1) he was under the care of Vader his entire childhood 2) he has Juno's voice in his head at the beginning of the trailer, he meets Juno for the first time in the first game 3) he has Yoda and Vaders voice in his head
 
This is a pure sequel, taking some liberties with the force I see,  so he died helping the rebels escape, or rather we are made to believe he died helping the rebels escape

Im excited the first one had an excellent story, but just couldn't deliver it gameplay wise. If it can this time around then it can have a ton of success
