Damn you guys for playing it before me! :(

This game is T rated, so it needs to be accessable to pretty much everyone so I don't think they want that NG type hardcore difficaulty were you die so damn quick.

And from my understanding, I think these rebels and Stormtroopers are just for XP farming while the other tougher and bigger enemies later on the levels are gonna be more difficault and drian your health more.

One of my favorite attacks I seen is the Force grip a enemy, pick them up and then throw the saber at them and use lightning and throw them away.

I am pretty certain that you later on can throw the lightsaber at will when you upgrade your lightsaber skills (from the trailer, he did it twice in Kashyyk level).

I am ok with QTEs as long as its not long as hell and fast to tap in (God of War), so I am ok with it.

I heard in the end of the demo they show a small footage in real time, Starkiller pulls down a Star Destroyer from the sky...true?
Haden Blackman said they have a scenario like that were YOU pull it down, so that debut CG trailer wasen't just for show.

I know I am gonna pick up the Ps3 version of the game, but I still want to do a side comparison between the 360 and PS3 just to see how much different they are, if any...which I hope there isn't much.

Finally the PS3 version of the demo is up!

1355MB

Can't wait to play the shit out of it.

If any of you guys have a PS3 and plan to download the demo and have a DS3, tell me if it supports rumble, because I plan on buying one for the full game.

its gonna be a great rental imo. its all very good, and looks great graphically. but with its lack of replayability im not sure if its worth 40 quid. not unless your a HUGE star wars fan (of which i am not) so its a rental for me. it seems like one of those games you'll play once and never again.

KORN, I am a "huge" Star Wars fan (not the type who buys SW mugs, and toys...etc.) but I do love it.

And like I said before, if I have fun with it, that is what matters to me.
The replay value, well it depends on the player and how they see a game as a replayability.

you should love it then. im not one of those people who can play the same game all over again just because i moved the difficulty slider from normal to hard. its seems pointless to me. but if your into that sort of thing it'll be right up your street.

The demo blew me away.

The lightsaber combat is surprisingly satisfying, and combining it with force powers is brilliant. Graphics, sound and presentation is top notch.

Very, very impressed. This is a purchase for me.

*Look at wallet and cries*

Nice to know then :)

But I have yet to try the demo so...my impressions of it will be short and straight to point (I dont like to do those long impressions).

If anyone has a PS3, download the PS3 version and just give me a feedback if it has rumble or not through DS3, I would appreciate it :)

Ban yourself :D

Played demo more, its really fun. Loving it, with all those physics, and attacks, gona be cool replay the full game :)

Cant wait to fight some jedi duels :D

Man, I just downloaded the demo and soon as I get to the first cutscene, bam the elite crashes. Then I turn it on and I'm greeted by the RROD. If I leave it off for 5 minutes then it turn it back on its ok, until I get into the demo again, it does the same... I can't beleive this the second 360 I've got that suffers from the shit RROD.

Okay I played the demo and I absolutely in love with it.

The lightsaber combat as many has said before me, it needs dismememberment (but thats not gonna happen) but I am happy of what it has to offer.
I have to watch Starkillers animation to see when to time the button for more combos and that way makes me also appreciate the animation alot.
So the lightsaber is a pass for me, which is very good, now I can't wait for lightsaber customization :D

Force powers...powerful!
Limited, but powerful.
From the demo its obviously early in the game so no mighty force powers there but from the videos I have seen there is definitely great stuff to do and get.

Environment, I like the fact its so dynamic, and its great!
I can't wait to play as Vader in Kashyyk and destroy trees and all that just to see the wood break apart.

The enemy...well I can happily say, I died...2.
That AT-ST gave me some trouble, and on top of that Stormtroopers didn't let me go with their rapid blasters.
But on Sith Lord difficaulty I died in the big TIE fighter hall right in the beginning of the demo.
I didn't notice any blasters, so this means a few hits will take a big chunk of your health.
This is good because it makes you watch out and careful, just because you are a powerful Sith doesn't mean you are immortal.

I think I played on Normal, and considering this is in the beginning of the game with easy enemies it can be a challenge for me, but maybe not.

I did like the fact I could pick up the same enemy with a force grip and slam him on the ground several times like that Pre-Vis tech demo video, and it was cool!

The camera...well 3rd person action games like this, camera is a a issue that always will be discussed.

So...the click center camera option...it works, but you need to stay still and do it, otherwise if you move and do so, the camera gets wonky and all, so I will stick with my rotating camera during combat (unless its a turn back situation were the button comes in handy).

The Blocking...well there is a limited auto block and a full manual block so its all good. I wish we could reflech back those lightsabers back like the movies.

But I truly can't wait for the full game to be able to get customization aspect of it further with unlockables, upgrades...etc. gonna be awesome.

Will I buy it? Hell yes!

Gonna call GAME tomorrow and pre-order it!

By the way, there is a "vibration" option in the option menu so my safe bet is it supports rumble for DS3 which I am planing on buying for this game (and future titles as well of course).

Anyway, I am dissapointed in one thing...the damn demo was short! :(

PS. No Sixaxis support...it is better not to have any than have one and it being a gimmick and annoying (unless you can turn it on and off).

That happened the samething to me when I played Assassins Creed. After 5 minutes the game was running, it froze.
Happened a few times and it was a perminent RROD.

This is the reason why I am picking up the PS3 version, not gonna risk the whole RROD when playing hours of TFU (or other multiplatform games for that matter).
Besides, for TFU, both the PS3 and 360 is identical anyways (unless you are a achievement junky, which I am thankfully not).

Sorry to hear it man :(

Cheers Sath, it's unexpectedly just died on me... the last game I played on it was Braid and that was fine...was looking forward to trying out the Force Unleashed... From the initial cutscenes it had me intrigued. Bloody MS, those half arsed bastards. The worse thing is I can't even afford the Sony "breadbin" PS3 either...Ah well I might as well ring MS and play on my PC until its sorted.

A_M yeah I...I would go crazy if I bought a new game on 360 which was multiplatform and it died one me.
Well with COD4 and AC, I learned my lesson.

I hope LucasArts supports DLC and gives us double lightsabers and double edged lightsabers, would be so awesome!

Oh s**** demo is out?! Will download!

It's a shame their not bringing this to the PC. Would of been good on the PC as well. Oh well at least there nothing good out until end of Sept/Oct.

For me, its only this game and Fable 2 that I want to buy for this year...unless I have much more money, then my game list would grow, but so far I am happy with TFU and Fable 2.

Yeah I'm gonna get Fable 2, Gears Of War 2, PES2009 and maybe this and Too Human, when they both become a bit cheaper... Well include PES2009 in the latter list as well as I don't fancy getting my fingers burn in paying full wack for a game that might be shit again.

Ever considered FIFA 09? As a PES fan, FIFA is looking very tempting...

Yeah I played the Euro 08 game and that got close to the gameplay of last years pes. But seeing the video for the new pes it looks like it going back to the PES 5, the pace of the game is quicker and it seems to be more fluid overall. But before I buy any of these (PES & FIFA) I will try the demos out first to make my mind up.

Anyway back on topic.

Hows the demo for everyone? Is it a first day purchase cos I'm not really into star wars and the last one I played was KOTOR 1, which was mint.

I really would like to buy it, because it is a very good and polished game. But, due to the amount of games I want this fall, it simply isn't possible. But it deserves at the very least to be rented.

Yeah there a number of good games out between Autumn and winter. Its a shame that they have to squeeze so many games in between these two seasons. I think I'll be the same and might wait until I can get it cheaper as I have other games higher than this on my list and I'm gonna be quite busy with college work when I go back.

Try to find a glowing clone trooper helmet.

=]
Nice little easter egg.

It requires some jumping and use of force grip. =]]]]]

I dont like it
very poor combat for an action game. very poot A.I. and there are no adrenalin.
Jedi Knight series the best.

i love it, very cool... cant wait for its release, but then again im a big star wars fan :)
