Title: Force Unleashed 2
Post by: Shorty McNostril on October 28, 2010, 06:31:40 AM
People. If you have not got this game. Leave right now and buy it. This is one of the best games I have ever played. I have the 360 version. It's a beautiful thing. I haven't finished it yet, but I can't wait to see what happens. I don't think I have enjoyed a game this much in a loooooooooooooooong time. Graphics are superb. Combos are awesome. Story is looking good too.
Anyone else playing this?

I played the demo and wasn't impressed. The combat was kind of boring, just slaughtering wave after wave of generic stormtroppers and occasionally Mind Trick-ing them (which I admit was kind of fun the first few times I did it). From the looks of the reviews the game has gotten (Gametrailers' especially), reviewers thought the same of the main game. I might check it and its predecessor out sometime just for the story, but I don't really feel the driving need to play Star Wars games anymore.

Yeah, I had played the Wii version of the original and it was okay. My friend assured me that the xbox version was better.
So I played the new one at my mate's house yesterday and I wasn't greatly impressed either. I mean it looks fantastic and the first hour or so I really enjoyed the combat. But then it didn't change. Same enemies. Same tactics. It got pretty boring fast. I'm not sure the story was enough to keep me wanting to play either...
All in all, it left the same sort of impression the first one did. It's alright, not great.

Yeah I love paying $60 for three hours of the same pointless, canon-raping nonsense that was in the first one, which was three times that length and currently about a third of the price.
But that's not even true, since the story in this one is COMPLETELY pointless and doesn't add OR subtract anything to the overall story. I wish I could say that was a good thing, given how TERRIBLE the story in the first one was, but honestly this is one of the biggest and most obvious cash-in sequels I've encountered.

Well. After completing it. I have to say I enjoyed the gameplay immensely. But damn, I had no idea it was so short. It just finished.
*sigh*
I will go through again and have a look at the dark ending.

Played this with my cousin lat night. Only took five hours to beat it.
The game seems to offer little more than the first one, and the levels are worse. The combat is cool, but it does get old.

Oddly enough, some reviews indicate that the Wii Force Unleashed 2 is a better game than the PS3/PC/X360 versions.

Not that odd, I think the Wii version of the first game also got better reviews. Still, it is not my kind of game based on videos I have seen (actual gameplay videos, not just trailers).

i beat the wii version just a couple of days ago, the game it self was kind of fun thou a bit repetitive, also the graphics were kind of ugly, but over all the use of motions controls behaved pretty good and the story was eh ok.
