Hello everyone. I recently decided to relent and buy a copy of The Force Unleashed II for my PS3. While not the best game by any stretch I still have had some fun with it being the Star Wars geek I am (and frustration with the challenges). However...  [Read More]

Neat idea for a DLC but since I was disappointed by the gameplay in the first game, I think I will pass on the Force Unleashed II until it is A LOT cheaper. I do like the storyline for the Force Unleashed saga but damn the gameplay is not the same. :...  [Read More]

Hi, I only just recently bought the game and downloaded the DLC's. While I like the Force Unleashed over all, I find that sometimes I encounter lag at certain points in the game. This could be attributed to disk marks as I am using a pre-owned disc....  [Read More]

Yeah I don't think Starkiller is dead. I mean what would the point be in setting a Star Wars game outside of the Star Wars universe? It's probable that the Emperor himself may have tried to revive and reshape Galen himself. Palpatine is obviously dis...  [Read More]

I think too many fans go crazy concerning the "canonicity" of Star Wars, especially concerning the 'Expanded Universe". To me the EU is optional canon, fun apocrypha but when considering the literal meaning of "canon" (the or...  [Read More]

Uh guys... have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe, the IGN article has a mistake. I mean the author of said article is probably not a Star Wars fanboy. I have found no other article that mentions Naga Sadow to be the Sith Lord in question. Whil...  [Read More]

Yeah I noticed that the "Republic Special Forces" look too much like the Clonetroopers/Stormtroopers. They also did away with the old "flaming sun" Sith emblem and replaced it with a near copy of the "corrupted Bendu" sy...  [Read More]

There are a total of 5 different endings. Dark, Light, Kill Palpatine, Kill Vader, and the true ending.:lsduel: Where did you hear this. I could find next to nothing about it which is why I asked. I'd just like to know if you got this info from a re...  [Read More]

Well as said in the video, Vader has a special choke attack that the apprentice does not. Makes up for his lack of Force lightning in many ways. Even though Vader just strides around it looks like you can jump a bit so that should make your pace a li...  [Read More]

Hi guys, I just watched a video preview of The Force Unleashed and Hayden Blackman, the project lead, stated that in the game one could modify their lightsaber as well as get new outfits. While I am sure the lightsaber modification is available in t...  [Read More]

Well I think it's a little harsh to criticize Malak as being a "Vader ripoff" when most of KOTOR was influenced heavily by the Original Trilogy. I personally think the creators managed to mimic what made Star Wars so great without copying e...  [Read More]

Sorry if you think I was "nitpicking" but I like to be thorough in my replies. I agree I would not like to see Force powers go "God mode" and Jedi going Neo or Goku on their enemies, but I just think limiting the power of the Fo...  [Read More]

You haven't studied a lot of eastern philosophy. The whole idea of "Do or do not, there is no try" is that if you have any doubts, you will fail. Yoda was trying to make Luke "Empty his cup", or unlearn what he had already learned...  [Read More]

Aside from mechanics for gaming, some powers and applications of the Force where probably seen as more lightside (benevolent) or dark side (malevolent) then others by the Jedi. For example using the Force to telekenetically lift something was probabl...  [Read More]

My :twocents: on this for what it's worth (hint: less than two cents) but I, like many other KOTOR fans, assumed Malak lost his lower jaw because of a battle with Jedi early during his days as a Sith Lord. The revelation that Revan did it is... well...  [Read More]

Hi Shem! First, I'd like to say excellent work! :thmbup1: It looks like you really streamlined this mod. I have the previous version and I am obviously interested in your new version. I just wanted to ask if two specific mods would conflict with it....  [Read More]

at last nice layout of official Star Wars game site... Well it's technically not "official" ;) Very nice layout, the background was a good choice and I like how you kept your menu somewhat the same. My only complaint is that I cannot view...  [Read More]
I don't see what the big deal is over him bringing down the Star Destroyer. I definitely don't think you need to justify it by pulling lines from the movies. I mean yes, I'm a fan of the movies and the original characters (I don't want to see them...  [Read More]
Once again, Im going to defend the issue many fans have taken with "bringing down a star destroyer with the Force". At first glance it looks unbalanced sure.... we have never seen this happen. When I first saw the concept art of the apprent...  [Read More]
Well, as far as I am aware there are a few female admirals and other high-ups in various EU stories, some leading one faction or another of the Empire after Palpatine's death. So though they are few and far in between it's not unheard of. :) Exactly...  [Read More]

That is exactly the problem. It shouldn't be over the top. Over the top was one of the problems with the Episode III game, among other things. Uh, the Force is supposed to be that powerful. It is even said so in the films... we just never see it at...  [Read More]
