GiantBomb sums it up exactly the way I would. I beat the game, and despite one of the best stories EVER, with some of the BEST cutscenes EVER.... the game just falls too short.... thoughts anyone? Edited by Rocky2000, Sep 18 2008, 07:20 AM.

I played through it and beat it in two sessions.... there seems to be a drive in me to go back and play it again for the ****SPOILER**** alternate ending. *(NO MORE SPOILERS PAST HERE)* I found that the difficulty ramped up in some spots, way too often. It left me frusterated -- more so than a little game I like to call Ninja Gaiden. Unfortunately, TFU was a game that I struggled through most of. It tended to have 3 main levels. One was imperial empire themed with blast doors and space stationy corridors, the other was the shroom planet of Felucia and the third was the droid factory... in a singleplayer game, there shouldn't really be any levels that repeat themselves; despite the fact that the paths are completely different, the setting was too familiar for the droid planet. When the level when you return to the droid planet (and even Felucia) all I could think was, "oh... this place again. Damn." The mechanics were good for force powers, but I wouldn't call the game Unleashed. There was only one part in the game that I felt like a real bad ass and that was when I was playing as Vader in the beginning. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a cheat or mode where you can play the entire game as Vader, which REALLY would have warranted another play through. The combo customization should have been torn down. Sure, it allows you to "level up" your character, but in the end I found myself completing each combo with the same finisher of a lightning saber slash. For every force power that you unlock, it seems as though there's two more that are pointless to use against enemies since they seem to adopt these little shields that protect them from anything but a lightsaber. (SPOILER ALERT!) One part that I felt ruined the game was the level conclusion when you pull the star destroyer out from orbit and smash it into the ground. The design choice to consistently stall you by sending wave after wave of cannon fodder tie fighters at you was TERRIBLE. If they just let you play the minigame and pull the ship down without interruption, it would have been MUCH more epic -- though the cutscene right after you initiate the pull down finalization was worth the 40 minute wait time.... (NO MORE SPOILERS) It's a real shame that I didn't like this game all too much. The highest point for me was the cinematic and the voice acting... it was all just brilliant, and all had that unique and signature Star Wars themed humor and environment. My favourite part of the cutscenes was the small little movie where Starkiller was meditating and putting his lightsaber together using the force... just the music and everything about just made your head tilt a little and get goosebumps... really cool. But overall, this game defines a rental for me. I'm kinda pissed that I bought it. Unfortunately this game got the big picture right, but it's the little things like sound glitches, and camera issues that made it fall to the Darkside (oh! how about that pun?). A simple multiplayer mode where you hold off endless storm troopers just screams for this game. It could have been included in a mere number of months, which I easily would have waited for. -Rocky Edited by Rocky2000, Sep 18 2008, 03:57 PM.

Yea, I had a feeling it would be a rental and luckily Zypher advised against my buying it, good save there bud. Anyways, I didn't read anything in your second post because I'm going to go rent it, beat it, then read it. I did catch the part about you being pissed you bought it, that's a sad thing. I was hoping this game would do better, like blow me off my feet. But any game can be made amazingly, but be too short and fall short of everyones' expectations

yea, im sad i bought this too. wasnt worth my money. a great story sure, but that could have been accomplished in a rent. ill play though it again to get some of the achievements, but thats about it, and the alternate ending. looks like we took different paths though rocky. so i got the alternate ending. |
