It felt like the lightsabre was more or less a glowing stick rather than something that could cut through fools like a hot knife through a frozen block of K-Y. Seriously, if you hit someone and they don't die instantly, it's not a flipping lightsabre. Maybe the demo is a training mission and Darth has started you out on one of those battery powered plastic light wands you can buy at CVS during Christmas time, I don't know.

I think my lightsabre is broken.

Also people give the lightsaber to much power in a video game yah sure in the star wars movies a light saber was the most powerful thing ever but in video games those rules don't always apply, if they did the game would be no fun cause it wouldn't be challenging!

I tend to agree, a lot of people complained that it doesn't feel like a lightsabre because you don't slice people up with one hit, usually there response to that making the game to easy was to just throw in more bad guys..... but then your left with Dynasty Warriors....and that's worse.
(Although, tbh a deep dark part of me holds a love for Dynasty Warriors that knows no sense or logic. :D)

"This game is called the FORCE Unleashed NOT The Lightsaber Unleashed, they really wanted you to use forcepowers not the lightsaber."then why give you a light saber at all.

"ZombieHunter said:i know im just trying to make a point :P id rather they be a more enemies that did more damage it that made it one hit kill saber"DARKIDO07 said:Would anyone accept a star wars game with no light sabers?

If you made a game with a lightsabre that actually functioned like a lightsabre, and then framed the gameplay around that, you'd have a bad game. Bad as in Michael Jackson bad.
As is, we've got God of War with force powers, where you beat people with a glow stick rather than hellish meathook chains.

"It's not the only Star Wars game where lightsabres don't kill in one hit, KoTOR for example. It's probably to just make fighting enemies not too easy."well if they had more sith in forced unleash you could have so dynamic light saber fights
It's been a while and I'm growing old, so my memory is not so good, but didn't the lightsabre in JK II slice and dice folks, save the Jedi you fought? I remember arms and nonsense flying around.
"yeah the lightsaber is retarded in this game. give me jedi knight 2 and jedi academy anyday. Best lightsabers in video games period.i agree mainly cause one hit kill and when you cut some ones arm of it went slow mo
"
"If you can't cut through dudes, it's not a light sabre.i get it a joke on the new guy CLASSIC
Vader gave you plastic rod and your dude is too stupid to notice it...that's the best answer I can come up with."
I wish it was like the PC ones, where you could type in G_Saberrealisticombat 1 and have some fun. :D
