To me this was one of my most antipicated game's of the year and couldnt wait to get it. Upon placing the disk isnide my ps3 and begginging to play the first level, it starts out with top notch cinimatics between Darth Vader and the Starkiller clone who is experiencing visions from the original Starkillers exploits in the first game. After you break out of the cloning facility usong Vaders very own Tie advanced. You travel to Catio Namoida to rescue general Kota, upon doing so you find out that Juno isnt in the Rogue Shadow anymore like Starkiller had hoped and so the very story from that point on becomes somewhat predictable at times even Boba Fett and Yoda's cameo apperences wernt enough to satisfy me. The enemies this time around are more diverse but just as predictable as the first game where at first they give you all of this power to use then slowly neutrolize it by granting enemies immunity to certain attacks or by giving them sheilds and mqking you hop on top of them or destroy generators while at the same time fending off limitless amounts of guards and terror walkers. The ability to weild dual sabers and make them upgradeable was nice but at times didnt fit with the cutscenes as some of them would show Starkiller with only one saber. They also implimented several new force powers such as control mind, whch basically gets your enemies to either kill them selves or turn on the partners, the other force power is force furry which is a awesome power to include, furry amps up all of your existing powers to super statis but it only lasts for a certain amount of time. Lastly there are not as many levels in the new game compared to the first one, but you spend more time on each level equalizing the level time. The ending was something that I never ever thought of and sets it up perfectly for a third game. There is also dlc planned that will follow along the same lines as the first games dlc. Bottom line is if your a star wars fan you are going to pick the game up anyway but if you are just a casual gamer rent it first and if you dont like it that way at least you can take it back instead of being stuck with it. I personally think its a good game but it could have been a lot better.
