Gaming News Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (All Consoles)

The controls for the Wii version of Force Unleashed have been released. Lightsaber goodness *drools*



In other news, there is a multiplayer mode allowing you to duel one of 27 different Star Wars characters (including Dooku, Mara Jade and Darth Maul) and exclusive content on the Wii, PS2 and PSP.

Gamepro has five pages worth of details on Wii version of the game, as well as some comparisons with the HD versions of the game: http://www.gamepro.com/nintendo/wii/...s/173588.shtml

This and Ghostbusters are what the control system was made for.

This. Game. Looks. Awesome.

Shame the release date has been pushed back, again.

Fuck. Yes. That'll make the tutorial significantly better then!

I've got a Wii, and it looks great for the Wii, especially the duel mode. But I'm so disappointed that there is no DMM or Euphoria in it, just won't quite seem the same experience. DMM I can understand, and ragdoll physics works for me, but the Euphoria engine looks fucking incredible.

Swinging a lightsabre or not, I'll be buying the 360 version and praying that the processor doesn't melt

Yeah, as much as I can see the benefits with the Wii version, I'd much prefer the better looking version on my Xbox 360.

Wired has a preview and some new screenshots up.

This is going to be pure Game of the Year material.

Looks good - except for all the freaking bloom lighting
At least on PC it won't take long for someone to find how to shut it off, if the devs aren't nice enough to have it in the options.
