Downloaded the demo on my PS3 a few days ago, and thought it was preety good. The force grip works really well and was easy to use, which I was concerned about it before. I loved how when you picked up enemies, if they came across an object they would try to grab and hold on to it. =p The physics are definently apparent.

Only thing I really didnt like was the loading screen to access the options menu -.- ... Looks like a good star wars game, ive been waiting for another good one for awhile. What did you guys think?

I absolutely love it.... can't wait for the full game. I love the Star Wars Universe, and this game seems to embody the Star Wars feel.

I was hyped for it, but the game is broken like crazy. The need to fix the camera and polish the controls.

I got bored with it before even completing the demo once.

Too many good games being released this fall to waste money on this one.

Typical licensed garbage made only slightly interesting due to the force powers. The demo was about all I could stand, I won't be touching the retail game when it's out. After playing the demo, I realize that throwing those people around really made me want a Psi-Ops sequel :(

The demo was ok. The camera was a little funky, though.

After seeing gameplay footage of Forced Unleashed for the first time, I knew this game would suck. It's repetitive, boring, too straight foward and the demo isn't even worth the space on your console. Killing someone never felt so unsatisfying. Battlefront still remains as my favorite Star Wars game. Force Unleashed will probably also have very low replay value.

TFU tosses quality core design to the curb in favor of spectacle, like many games these days.

Water cooler moments only work when the content surrounding those moments is good. Someone forgot to tell that to LucasArts (and alot of other devs) apparently.

it'll probably be better on 360 again b/c of rumble, achievements, xbl services, and better controller.

Might get it next year when it hits 30 bucks. I really like the game, but its not worth 60 bucks when Gears, Fable and Fallout are less than 60 days away.

Felt repetitive. You could literally force grip everything and anyone in the game and still destroy the demo, easy.

I'm looking forward to playing it on the system with the most suitable controller setup, i.e. the Wii. Besides, lightsaber multiplayer is always good for a laugh.

Dissapointing. So many jaggies and the force powers didn't feel satisfying at all. :(

Clunky controls as well. Then again, i've only played the PS3 version (plan on playing the 360 version when it comes out for silver members, damn you MS -_-)

i thought it was pretty good. im not buying it, my brother is so i dont really care.

i think he turns good in the end, cuz he doesnt have the "bad guy" face. he freakin looks like a jester for the king or something. its obvious Soul Calibur 4 made changes to him.

The Demo was too short in my opinion, and it didn't really let you play around with any force powers that were truly over the top. My main issue is that killing people feels more like beating around a wad of cotton then it does an evil act.

I was pretty underwhelmed. Which is a shame since this game looked so good. I'll give the wii version a rent to see if I like it. But that's it.

The controls weren't smooth at all. It was dissapointing considering this is (or was) one of my most highly anticipated games of 2008. I was expecting a souped up version of Jedi Outcast...

It's okay... a little bit of camera issues but alright overall but the game screams to become JK3 and JA is not JK3. They just shulda made JK3. If you dont know what JK is i wont tell you, if you care anything about Star Wars games you should know what JK is.

it was fun but not great or astounding, I see this going into the rent catorgory. It was simple but fun. The physics and force grip reminded me of Psy-Ops which is a really good thing. Combat was too easy sometimes but aside for that its fun but I think it will be too shallow to be worthy of a buy.

Although I liked it, the thing I didnt like is the controls didnt feel really tight and when i forced gripped stuff, I couldnt move my character so on a harder difficulty I practically got shot to death while moving the object around

PS3 has rumble with DualShock 3, achievements are worthless, it is a single player game, and 360 controller is mediocre. Try again.

was really interested in this game, but the demo didnt impress me... and with so much great games being released later on this year, it would be a waiste of money getting SW... (imo)
