The environment's reaction, windows blowing out of the star port, sucking objects out in a
swoosh with a blast door shutting behind was quite entertaining. Force lifting and smashing
that little R2 unit into the door that was previously closed made me chuckle. For it being a
demo I probably played through the thing about 6 times before stopping. You really feel
powerful in this game, tossing troopers to and fro watching as they grasp on to objects within
their reach (even if it's another trooper) made me feel that this AI was really reacting to what
was going on. Some enemies even fled as I approached menacingly towards them with my
sith weapon. [read more & comment]
The force gets unleashed
A quick review of the new Star Wars masterpiece
By Crutchboy
Well this weekend marked Xbox Live's release of Lucasarts
new Star Wars : The Force Unleashed demo for those of
you who subscribe. First let me tell you that I downloaded
this free demo Sunday, waiting 2 days of thinking that it may
spoil my anticipation of the full game arriving september
15th. The 900 something byte DL didn't take too long, I
casually got in a few of the Fable 2 Table Games while i
waited (also a great demo).
I wanna say that the game mechanics are pretty damn
phenomenal. The graphics are greatly on par with a Star
Wars game for 360. I was a little hesitant at first, since
these titles have been in the past "known" to not do so well
after the Star Wars brand wears off. Let me tell you what
DMM and Euphoria have done to this game is truly amazing.
The force powers actually over ride the fact that you are
wielding a lightsaber (which was always the big draw for
me - yes I'm a geek).
