Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Which of the two Star Wars action games did you like more and why?

* yes I know the JFO and Survivor have some RPG elements and upgrades etc, but at the core it's a character action game.

As a verified Star Wars hater I enjoyed The Force Unleashed 1 (Next Gen Version). Can't say the same about the others and did not get very far into them.
 
I think Force Unleashed honestly. With its huge push in physics and all the destruction, it takes up a larger part of my brain. Definitely a ton of memorable dumb fun moments.

I still enjoy the Jedi series for what it is, but man, I just want Jedi Knight to come back, lol.

I've heard reasonable enough arguments that the PS2/XB version is often considered superior to the PS3/360 version, ala Splinter Cell Double Agent.

They cut out that star destroyer sequence on those last gen versions.
 
Both games are great but I prefer Jedi fallen order. It felt like the team understood what made the OT great while not being a direct copy of Luke's journey.

In Fallen order I liked the feeling of being a Jedi uncovering the mysteries of the force by exploring ancient ruins. Loved the whole Dathomir sequence with the fallen Jedi. Great writing in that game.
 
I've played one of them and I can't even remember which one

It wasn't even that bad it kind of felt like a temu dark souls set in Star Wars world. Never finished it though

Maybe I should revisit these games

FU had some really epic moments, but too little to matter as most of the games were kinda mediocre outside the set pieces. FO/Survivor are better overall in moment to moment gameplay/level design, etc.
 
I think the Force Unleashed is a far more interesting game. Yes, the execution of the ideas is flawed, but the ideas were interesting, at least. And personally speaking, I think the Force Unleashed games had a more interesting story.
 
Both games stories are kinda pointless, FU did have some ambition but it was just an edgy fan fiction. Combat wasn't really fun but the force power usage and destruction was.

Cal Kestis games are one of the few good things about Disney Star Wars.
 
Unleashed is destructive to Star Wars canon and Fallen Order is actually respectful of canon, and thus fits snugly into it, so by default Fallen Order.

Unleashed is also not a great game whereas Fallen Order is. Survivor less so, but then The Force Unleashed 2 is atrocious so...
