Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I didn't expect too much going into this game. I played the first Force Unleashed on the console, and while that game had some problems, it was still very fun at times. However, Force Unleashed 2 fails to fix the problems of the original, and introduces a host of new issues.
I think my main issue with this game was its length. Even playing the game on hard, with numerous restarts due to technical issues, and having to wait through the annoying, unskippable logo movies, the game still was over in just a few hours. It felt much shorter than the first game, and was not even worth the discounted [...] price. The gameplay, while still pretty fun at times, got very repetitive, simply because I tended to use the same tactic (grip object or stormtroopers, lightning, and throw) on practically every enemy in the game. The saber combat, another weak area of the first game, was not improved at all. I found myself using the same attack over and over again (slash, slash, lightning). The longer moves were easily blocked or interrupted, and I had to force myself to use them just for the sake of variety.
I also experienced a number of serious technical issues, from pre-rendered cut-scenes frequently failing to play, to crashes during loading, to completely broken physics where stormtroopers would float in mid-air like it was in zero-gravity. In addition, the game is capped at 30 frames per second, making everything feel a bit choppy. These problems seriously detracted from what would already have been a mediocre game.
All in all, I've found the Force Unleashed to be wholly inferior to Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy. It's proof that all the fancy technologies in the world like DMM, Euphoria, and Havok can't replace solid game mechanics and a strong story.
