SW:TFU - Why Do The Brightest Stars Burn Out The Quickest?
ikiryou | 8:54 PM on 08.30.2008 6 comments


TheForce.net has an excerpted review* of the Wii variant of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed which praises the controls, but notes that the game is heartbreakingly short. As in six hours. I/m pondering the possibility of there being any downloadable content [for the PS3/XB360/PSP] and, if any, what's it gonna cost us?

BTW, if you haven't read the graphic novel and spoiled the suspense of the game's canonical, Lucas-approved ending, scroll down a wee bit and you'll get an idea of the game's ending. Oh shock.










Yeah, like you didn't see that coming.

Hey, it's not that much of a spoiler. The game is said to have multiple endings, depending on if you choose the Dark Side path or the narrow, dogmatic view of the Jedi. If you've got a BC-compatible PS3, you can save about $20 by going for the PS2 version, plus you'll be getting some content -the Jedi temple trials vs various as-yet-unheard of Sith lord spirits- that isn't in the PS3/Xbox360.

Why the fuck are so many games so short. It pisses me off. Remember when a good action game was like 15-20 hours? Now you are lucky if they are over 10.

Honestly the hype is the first nail in the coffin. All that raving, the trailers etc, and I finally get to play the demo and it just fails.

Then I hear the rest of the game is mostly the same crap...

Oh well

I'll play almost anything you put into my console. Except for peanut butter sandwiches. That would just fuck up the BD drive. While on the go I get my game on with the DS and PSP. Yay for portable gaming.
