First Impressions: Star Wars the Force Unleashed [Dark Side] | Posted at 10:08 AM
So I downloaded the Star Wars Force Unleashed demo yesterday after reading on Kotaku that it had been released a few days ago (I'm behind on news).
What can I say about the demo… it's awesome? Besides a few things like how it takes a bit to get used to force throwing and how there are many repetitive items strewn about, the gameplay itself is very satisfying. Throwing stuff at enemies, slicing them up, electrocuting them, and pushing them off walkways never gets old. I really like the combo system I saw and I wasn't paying too much attention but it looks like you level up. I will definitely be playing the demo through again.
I really look forward to renting the game eventually, since I doubt I'd want to play it through multiple times. But who knows, it might be so good I'll just buy it. Not right away, though… that honor goes to Rock Band 2 and other anticipated games in October.
