The Force Unleashed Release Date ( Star Wars )
frankls 
The Force Unleashed is the first next-generation game developed internally at LucasArts, and will be available on the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system. All will feature the same storyline, with opportunities to unleash the Force in devastating new ways.
The Force Unleashed is all about taking these powers, learning how to use them then letting them rip. Because Lucasarts has chosen to cater down for the widest possible audience a little hack and slash action with your lightsabre still goes a long way, but the real excitement comes when you play smarter, exploring how your powers can be wielded to wreck the people and environment around you.And the game positively encourages you to do exactly that. The Force Unleashed is that raw, vengeful,?episode?of the series that I think would have been great in?Episode?III. Vader’s secret apprentice, Starkiller, is such a great character, who serves Vader blindly, and most importantly, knows it. The Force Unleashed is a game beset with so many problems that it?s difficult to see the half decent game buried beneath a surface of mediocrity. The story is genuinely enjoyable with some excellent voice acting and facial animation throughout, and sits comfortably between Episodes 3 and 4.
Game director, Haden Blackwell and his team of writers carefully crafted an original story that eventually garnered GEORGE LUCAS’ approval for canonization! This new apprentice, Starkiller, is tasked with helping to complete “The Great Jedi Purge.”.Starkiller takes use of the Force to never-before-seen levels and in so doing provides great opportunities for gamers to be visually stunned as they proceed through the game on their Xbox 360, Playstation 2, 3, PSP, Nintendo Wii or DS. Gamers got Knights of the Old Republic, but that was an isolated product that took place in the universe — not the core storyline — and was only playable by Xbox and PC owners. The prequel trilogy was much more mainstream, but ask any serious Star Wars fan what they thought of Episodes I through III, and you’ll likely get an eye roll before anything else. Gamers get the chance to step into the patent-leather boots of Darth Vader himself in the game’s opening level. The sight of Vader calmly striding across a busy battlefield, lifting enemies into the air, then tossing them into a nearby abyss, brings a double shot of gravitas back to the Star Wars universe.
