Title: Star Wars Force Unleashed and Clone wars: can somebody compare/contrast them?
Post by: AV on July 19, 2008, 12:16:14 AM
Aren't they the same game engines, wii controls just different graphic styles? Can someone tell me how each game is different and what game has more potential.

We don't know a whole lot about Clone Wars, but from what we've seen. I do believe they are the same engine and most likely similar controls. One of course is a movie tie-in and done in the style of the upcoming animated film. I'm personally more interested in TFU because of the single player and graphical style. Clone Wars may have more refined controls though since it comes out two months after Force Unleashed.

I seriously doubt that they're the same engine. The Wii version of SW:TFU is being developed in Australia, but the Clone Wars games are developed at Lucasarts Singapore. The Clone Wars games are exclusives to Nintendo platforms (meaning it was built ground-up for the Wii), while TFU is multiplatform (I'm not sure if the developer is also making the PS2 versions, I think they are). TFU is obviously developed with a single player campaign in mind, however they've only talked about a 1P campaign for Clone Wars DS, and not even mentioned the topic for the Wii version, suggesting that the Wii Clone Wars may be mostly a 1 vs 1 fighter game...

Actually Kai TFU and Clone wars are both made by Krome which is in Australia. And yes TFU for PS2 is also made by Krome the only thing thats shared between the PS2 and Wii are the graphics however the controls and the duel mode are for the Wii, PS2 gets some levels not found in any other version.

You are correct and incorrect. Krome may be on the label, but Clone Wars is being made in Singapore by LucasArts Singapore. I wrote the preview; the material they gave us to write it mentioned that about a million times.
TFU is a third person Action/Adventure title. Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels is a 1 on 1 fighter.
That's a pretty good contrast.

This game is really not that good. It doesn't feel fun or intuitive and all that happened was I was waggled into the corner for 5 minutes. The force lift, force push and pull, was all gimmicks.
