This game sucked balls. Ok, the graphics/environment/sounds were nice. But that's about it. The combat seems to be fucking, ridiculously simple, there's only a few moves and you can't even block whilst running which kills alot of the whole "super jedi" thing. And then, the AI is just dumb. And then.....basically, the gameplay is shit. Then again, most of these "hack n slash" games are.

Wow the demo went extremely quickly, like 10 minutes.

And it took me 40 minutes to download

Game looks interesting, dunno whether to get it, I'm more interested in Mercs 2 atm

In all honesty, if you're low on money, I'd probably rent this and get Mercs 2.

Dunno if your game retail stores have it, but Gamestop has a thing where if you beat it within 7 days, you can return it for full price. Might wanna check.

X,X,X,Y (Square, Square, Square, Triangle for PS3) was a lightning/saber slash where lightning came out of the saber.

X,RT (Square, R2) was an impale () move.

Forgot the rest.

lol im just torturing everyone know

throwing tie fighters into storm troopers and throwing them 50 feet into the air and watching them fall to the ground etc



i also hope they keep it so that you can not block while moving, that would make it way to easy

A Wii can handle it. Does that mean we'll be getting uber-graphics on that rather weak GPU console? Probably not, which is really poor to not have it for PC. Bad move, Lucas Arts.

It's easy to play, it's just...boring. The moves aren't satisfying, killing an enemy looks crap (ragdolls, cmon i thought GTA:4/CoD4 set the standard, even the Source engine does better ragdolls than this game)

This game needs some work, needs to flow more. Dunno how everyone saying it's so awesome, it just plays rubbish. Also what fucking team was I on. I was having to kill both the Stormdudes and the other Army, even though they were fighting each other. And when fighting that big robot, it was annoying trying to even get the option to start the sequence to destroy it in half. I mean, I did it, but it was annoying and not exactly fun.

there are two things i dont like about the game: the camera is just as awful as the one in ninja gaiden 2. and it is way to easy to kill storm troopers.

i wonder how they design the lightsaber versus lightsaber combat.

Has some nice stuff in the game, and the fact that stormtroopers are easy to kill is star wars like, hell stormtroopers in this game shoot better than in real star wars storyline
The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.

Looks Great. Plays great. But I get bored after 5 minutes of the demo? Basically same game as lego star wars, just better graphically. I am going back to Madden 09 until this game is $30.

Loved how he picked the guy up and threw him while they were both in mid-air.

This game was already awesome.

Then I threw a FUCKING TIE FIGHTER AT STORMTROOPERS.

You can't argue with that. Also, the bending of the supports to make the flying tie fighters crash.

Just...awesome.

I know, right?

The amount of inter-activity with the environment is incredible.

And I remember in the GC Convention Dev. Walkthrough, the guy showed how you can bend the doorway anyway you want...just showing how advanced the physics are.

If there's one gripe about this game for me, it'll be the "no walking while blocking" thing, as Zimmer stated. Hopefully it'll be fixed before release/patched in.

Just played the demo and I thought that was the best bit.

I wasn't that impressed with the rest. The controls for the force grip are so fiddly and counter intuitive that it makes using it not that much fun.. I also think objects etc move around too fast when you're using it. It's hard to aim at stuff (I know you can 'launch' things and it auto locks on but where's the fun in that).

The lightsaber is bloody useless. This is 2008. Why are we still having to hit enemies with our lightsaber like a club 10 times for them to die.

Also, judging from that demo the new engine is horrendously underused. When it comes to the environment you can manipulate only one or two things (crates etc dont count). The doors and those awesome metal supports. Why can't you pull down the rack that the TIE's were on? Why can't you bend any metal walkways?. They have this amazing engine and, just like GTA4, it's incredibly limiting with what you can do with it. So much prootential for amazing gameplay and it looks like its mostly wasted.

I also wasn't impressed with the AT-ST fight. A 'blast radius' whenever he stomps the ground near you? Lame. Having to repeatedly hit it with my club to wear down its health and then do a God of War style button pressing thing? Also lame. He has a lightsaber for goodness sake. Run fowards, chop off its legs? How about use force grab (the first thing I tried) and bending its legs out of shape? Force push to knock it over and then tear it apart with the saber? Again, we have this amazing engine and its completely wasted. No. What Lucasarts want you do do is hit it with your club until its health bar is low and then press buttons that come up onscreen. Oh what a great use of the engine. What fun.

Quite disappointed. Like i said previously, the best part was bending those supports to whack the TIE fighters. I don't mean that in a bad way of course. I thought that part was amazing. But the whole game should be that kind of thing instead of fighting against the controls during force grab, clubbing enemies with your 'lightsaber' and clubbing a damn AT-ST until its 'health bar' is low ffs.

Anyway, now to read the rest of the thread to see what everyone else thinks.

Yeh, I agree with the negatives - you get kind of stuck by lots of enemies sometimes as you cant move+block. And I thought the end combo on the AT-ST was fine, but the part before whittling it down was pretty lame (I actually stood back on the bridge and threw shit at it).
