That's how it broke down in the comic book as well.DoctorWho said:I'm going to assume the light side ending is the Canon one. Which ending is featured in the book?
I actually like the combat but I'm playing on the hardest setting which is why, the game gets boring on the easier difficulties. I think its better than average, not worth 60 but underrated. The game is a solid 8, and maybe an 8.5 because it keeps with Star Wars canon.Mr Mike said:It's truly dreadful, isn't it? Played it some more last night, because I at least want to see the ending. But the gameplay/combat just gets so boring. I'm angry because the game is so average. Four years and I guess something like $40m - but spent on what?

Opened up this at the end of a level to make sure I got all Holocrons. AND IT SAYS I HAVE NOTHING. Oh yeah, and DEFAULT TEXT is my objective. This shit is inexcusable.
So I kept playing, but, after being totally swept off my feet by the battle withonPROXY / Darth MaulRaxus Prime, I ran into this rather annoying game breaking glitch - can someone confirm if this is a glitch or not, if possible?Imperial
Basically, after taking the lift, I'm stuck in this room. There's heaps of noise outside and there's what looks to be two different doors on either side, but none of them will open. The generator looking things don't react to my lightning either. Heck, I tried the elevator and it's not even at the same level as the ground I'm on, and there's an invisble wall preventing me from going there.
Also, the cutscene after I killedwas totally crap. Galen just walked away - is that what's supposed to happen? Seemed so weird to have no dialogue.PROXY
Anyway, here's pics of the room for reference. Any help is greatly appreciated. Each pic shows either end of the room. Are the doors supposed to be automatic?

So, is it "safe" to just delete my game from the HDD and then just do a quick runthrough. I really wanted to finish this! =(
WOw, I swore I tried that, but I'll give it a go now. Man I hope it works!Geoff9920 said:You should be able to force push either door and continue going.
About the level not registering -- I got the same screen at the end of the final level but I don't know if it will impact the holocrons achievement.

Soo.....what's this? Why wasn't this in the game? >_> I hear there are some Jedi Temple levels in the Wii version, but they are just battles with Sith Lords who haven't been very relevant to the overall story. Is there levels coming as DLC or something? =/
I found it on another Star Wars messageboard when looking for help regarding my "glitch". I don't know why the image is missing now.dogbert said:Where'd you find that screenshot, Nemesis?

Just finished the game, fucking whoopedass. Felt so good too, I've been wanting to do that for ages. I still feel a bit lost with the lack of closure for so many characters, as well as the lameThe Emperor's.death of Starkiller
I found Starkiller to be a really likeable character. I was expecting something that was heartless and cruel based on his appearance in Soulcalibur, but in reality his appearance in Force Unleashed was so much more light hearted - I forgot I was playing as a Sith sometimes. Just the interactions between him, PROXY and Juno was top notch.

Anerythristic said:About to beat it on Normal difficulty setting on the PS3. This is the first game where I would have to complain that the people reviewing it didn't have time to "practice" when specifically talking about the use of powers Game has a steep learning curve and is skill based more than a game intended for the mass market should ever be. The few enemies that have shielding were never a concern for me as I like the Sith Flurry![]()
I eventually got to the point where I would walk into the room pick up three storm troopers toss them out a window a split second later toss a crate at the legs of two others tripping them up and jumping into an electrical arc combo on the rest all seamlesslyOnce you "get it" some of the seamless combos were just WOW! I once jumped into a group of 5 enemies and spun the saber around in a combo killing all of them, I still have no idea how I pulled that one off. :lol
The bosses were not great or well thought out and the camera was horrible. I liked it, the main character was really cool and it capture that star wars feeling in both look and feel much better than I expected.

Star Wars®: The Force Unleashed Sells 1.5 Million Units Worldwide in Under One Week
Becomes Fastest-Selling Star Wars® Game of All Time
SAN FRANCISCO, CA September 23, 2008 After less than one week on store shelves worldwide, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is on track to become the best-selling Star Wars game of all time. LucasArts today announced that more than 1.5 million customers worldwide have purchased Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, making it both the fastest-selling Star Wars game and LucasArts game ever.

Sales figures are based on the first five days of sales across all platforms worldwide.
Although LucasArts shipped more than 4.3 million units of The Force Unleashed around the world in preparation for the games launch, unprecedented demand has led to the manufacture and distribution of additional copies.
The record-setting sales of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed shows the undiminished power of Star Wars and its popularity across all media types, including video games, said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts. Were blown away by the response to the game.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force and casts players as Darth Vaders Secret Apprentice, unveiling new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy seen through the eyes of this mysterious new character, who is armed with unprecedented powers.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is the first next-generation game developed internally at LucasArts, and is available on the Xbox®360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system.
LucasArts and developer Krome Studios have created an equally enthralling version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed on the Wii home videogame system from Nintendo, PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, and n-Space, Inc., developed a version for Nintendo DS. All feature the same storyline, with opportunities to unleash the Force in devastating new ways.

Pizza Luigi said:I am so irritated right now.
I'm at the level whereyou have to bring the Star Destroyer down. I got it in the "BRING IT DOWN" pose once, but now it just doesn't work anymore. It keeps being red with the two sticks standing neutral... HELP!

Yeah, I like it quite a bit, although it's too bad most of the dev team is already gone from the 360/PS3 version.AgentOtaku said:I for one am Happy to see this has sold well!

If you could point me to where this was debunked outside of a message board post (i.e. no members of the Force Unleashed team were laid off), I'd appreciate it. Also, there is nothing in this thread before your post debunking this or correcting it as far as I can tell.Menzo said:LOL, how many times do we have to correct this exact same sentence in this exact same thread?
Not true. This was a rumor that has been debunked by us numerous times.

I never said the entire team got laid off either, and what you're saying does nothing to substantially debunk the stories that circulated in late June. No worries, though, you've got a PR job and you've got to do it.Menzo said:Nobody ever said no members of the TFU team were laid off. What I'm telling you is that the entire team did not get laid off, and, as we've said publicly numerous times, LucasArts is committed to internal development.

dogbert said:I'm not LucasArts PR but I worked on the TFU team, though I've since left LucasArts (of my own free will!). You said "most of the team" was laid off. Most of the team was not. Not even close to most of the team. How many times does this need to be said?
How's anyone supposed to debunk these constantly recirculating story of the TFU team being fired?
I've been trying to debunk the stupid rumor since it was out but noone listens.

Router said:I rented this out last night. I'm about an hour into it at the moment. Its not too bad, not as bad as people seem to be making out. Its also not great.
My biggest problem is that saber combat is essentially useless and acts nothing lie saaber combat should.
Oh well. Jedi Outcast is still the king (It even does the whole force power thing better than this game).
*EDIT*
I think this could have made a much better TV Series than a game.
I checked out the comic after beating the game. The game's presentation is better. Just play it on apprentice if you only want the story.kame-sennin said:I heard there's a comic though, so I might pick that up instead of forcing my way through the game - as I also found the story interesting.
BTW, why are QTE's still in games at all? Does anyone like them?

Combat was fun, but some stuff was frustrating, like how slow Starkiller was to get up when knocked down.
Rated-Rsuperstar said:Cons -
No character development at all. Maris Brood is the worst of it. I can't think of any reason that character is in the game.
Glitches - Ranging from getting stuck in the environment, sound issues, and in the final battle after I died, the game booted me back to the Xmb.
Bad camera
the platforming was annoying
generic level design
clunky unresponsive combat
terrible boss battles
TFU wasn't worth the wait or the hype. 5/10.
