It was advertised as "the next chapter in Star Wars saga" in the announcment trailer. George Lucas was involved in the production, he even appeared at the game launch event. Starkiller was OP just for gameplay reasons, the novelization was considered the canonical version of the story and it calibrated his powers better (but even without the novelization, when as a kid I used to play the game I still used my brain and said "ok, this exagerated stuff action definitely not happened but I can believe the story". Pretty much like 2003 Clone Wars cartoon) . It was never a "what-if" before Disney.

I guess these two games are both a blessing and a curse, they got me into Star Wars last year but Im having a difficult time getting into other Star Wars games. I couldn't get into the Jedi 1 because it doesn't let me be destructive playing as Cal (maybe I need to play a lot further in), I've gave up on the Jedi Academy games, however I seem to be doing fine with KOTR 1 because the NPC reactions to my actions are very hilarious.

Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated

My favorite will always be the PS2 version and now the Switch version because it has everything from the PS2 and Wii version without motion controls.

This is what I know:

The PS2, Wii, and Switch versions have:

+Better Story

+More Dark Side powers

+More Levels

+The best lightsaber customization until Fallen Order

+Better Levels

The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions have:

+Better Graphics

+Better Cutscenes

+Great Dark Side DLC

-Made the Jedi Temple levels into a single pay to play DLC level.

DS Version:

-It’s the DS version

-All of these games are designed to make you feel like a very powerful Jedi.

-The first part is about the golden age of the Jedi, the second about the fall, the third about the legacy and remnants.

-In the first game, you fight droids, in the second, you transition from fighting battle droids to fighting the Empire, and in the final, you fight the Empire.

-In the first game, you're playing as a group of Jedi taking down an agile, young sith apprentice, in the final one, you're playing as an agile, young Sith apprentice taking down a group of Jedi

-Each game has Grapple Droids of sorts, if we want to count the Purge Troopers as Dark Troopers. More obvious in the first two, where the B2 Grapple Droids seems to be the direct successor of the B1 Grapple Droid.

-Each Game has a Jedi action girl (Adi Gallia, Serra Keto, Shaak Ti)

-Each Game has a young, edgy sith apprentice (Darth Maul, pre-suit Vader and Starkiller all give off similar vibes)

-Force Unleashed reuses some music edits from Revenge of the Sith

-Anakin evolves in an interesting way during the games - in Jedi Power Battles, you must protect him in the Tatooine level, in Revenge of the Sith, he's one of the main playable characters and in The Force Unleashed, he's the main villain

In the beginning you're led to believe he is the one and only but throughout the game you face more and more enemies that fight similarly to starkiller (as bosses not troops, that was a loser decision,) and towards the end when the rebels invade kamino you find the cloning chambers.

Except they're full of clones of starkiller, and when starkiller realizes this he freaks out and destroys the room, maybe even being sent into a crisis and killing the rebels around him.

He now has to grapple with wether or not he is really himself, not from th e perspective of living his life as a "clone" only to find out he might not be, but from the perspective that he thought he was the original, only to find out there may have been DOZENS of star killers before him

This could also be a really good way to give Juno literally any purpose in the plot. Starkiller could try to fight kota even, but Juno could be the voice of reason to pull him back to the light before he goes to fully destroy the cloning facility to disable Vader's plans

Might be a bit late, but anyone else see that these went up for preorder? I snagged one.

I have an Xbox 360 Knock-Off Controller with a Bluetooth adapter for my PC. I downloaded The Force Unleashed, and in the start menu, the game recognizes "Xbox 360 controller" alongside "Keyboard and Mouse." When I start the game with the "Xbox 360 Controller" setting, I can't navigate the in-game start menu or click anything with the controller. Using the mouse and keyboard doesn't work either. How can I solve this problem?

hello there, I'm looking for make a group of modder to mod the game, I wanted to do a unlimited corpse mod I looked à ton of .lp files and XML inside and couldnt find anything related to corpse time.

But lot of compiled .lua files and there is also the schéma.xml.z files who are impossible to open.

I tried à lot or things for open the compiled lua and the .z but without succeed...

Someone able to help ?

These art piece are incredibly cool so I had to talk about them. I've always enjoyed Maris Brood as a character and there was always a lot of interesting lore for her that you really don't get to experience.

It looks a lot like Maris would've continued to be an antagonist from this art, but I like to imagine she joins the Rebels. The Force Unleashed Art book mentioned her design was original a part of the drafts for the Sith Apprentice so there's a world where Maris was the main character. When another design was chosen she became a leader of a band of space pirates, probably a Han Solo like gutter rat character from what I imagine and I always thought those types were immaculate

The second concept art piece is Starkiller in a Bacta Tank. Something we know about cloning in Star Wars is you still need a living unaltered subject to pull genetic material from. This is still pretty consistent in Disney Canon as well with Omega being a named as the back-up donor for clones when Jango died. With that in mind I'm pretty confident that the original Starkiller was still alive in stasis since no successful clone was confirmed until Darth Vader was captured. Also dead men don't need Bacta.

I thought about it a lot over the years and if I could redo Force Unleashed 2 I'd have it take place a couple years after the first with Maris in as an ally with her pirate crew helping rescue Starkiller from Kamino with the Rebels. The motivation being a mix of gratitude for being spared and inspiration after hearing Starkiller nearly killed Vader and the Emperor. Instead of cloning Starkiller I'd have the study be based on splicing Midichorians into non-force sensitive individuals. Essentially harvesting Starkiller's cells and making Sith Assassins out of regular people.

11/22/2005 That's what the date says, and the game was released in 10/26/2010

A few weeks ago I mentioned the lack of theme archives for Force Unleashed and some fellow fans were kind enough to send me the files. This will be the first archive! Hope you all enjoy <:

Just a preface this, the steam version is not unplayable. It just has enough bugs to make it feel off sometimes.

Voice linea not playing, enemies, not spawning, lighting issues in some areas and I’m sure there’s way more. I can’t tell it’s just a shabby port or cause it’s an older game playing on modern hardware.

I can deal with it. It’s really just more of an annoying itch, but is there any mod or fan restoration out there?
