Accurately captures the excitement of the Star Wars universe but is let down by easy gameplay

User Rating: 8 | Star Wars: The Force Unleashed PSP
There's no denying that The Force Unleashed is a thoroughly enjoyable, exciting game. You never tire of throwing enemies into each other or flinging parts of the scenery towards an approaching Stormtrooper... from the opening level to the closing battle the trail of destruction you leave behind is immense. However, there are times during the game where you feel a little TOO powerful, so much so that you are practically unstoppable. Each time you die, you reappear at a place only a few moments prior and many of the enemies you annihilated are still gone... there don't appear to be any difficulty settings, so your only option is to hinder yourself with less force powers - and what fun is that?

Despite that, you'll find yourself wanting to go back and play through again and the additional PSP exclusive game modes are superb. Loading times can be an issue, but that's expected of the PSP. Graphically the game is impressive, especially considering the platform and the score and sound FX compliment the it perfectly.

The Force Unleashed is by far the best Star Wars game available for the PSP and the storyline is just as gripping as any of the motion pictures.
