The Rancor battle looks epic. I hope the 360 gets the bonus levels like the playstation, I would love the play the Bespin duel. This game looks more and more sweet with every update.

It appears that they continue to dig themselves into a hole here.

Oh, I hope there's not a sequel. As awesome as this game looks and as much as I'm sure I'll like the game, I fear a sequel will further erode established canon.

A sequel would be confusing. What would the apprentice get an apprentice? Darth Vader get yet another secret apprentice?

Dark Jedi- the only one thats a sure thing is a Bespin duel, and thats for playstation. I'd like to see maybe the throne room duel in ROTJ and Duel of Fates. Im guessing each platform will have it's own duel, seeing as they like to exclude other platforms.

Personally I think the "Force Unleashed" as a game is more about the idea of unleashing the force than it is about the story. And there are millions of stories to be told with Jedi. So, yeah, you can make a sequel with all new characters and the same game play.

What's the word on the length of the single player story?

I get the feeling it's going to be about 4 hours long.

Well the webdoc mentioned we go to Felucia and Kashyyyk twice.

So the levels we've seen in trailers (in no particular order):

Kashyyyk (vader)
Tie Facility
Raxis Prime
Felucia
Bespin
kashyyyk (apprentice)

and then I'm sure there are others like alderaan, tatooine (maybe) and the death star

Assuming the levels aren't quick, it should be a fairly long game.

Don't forget Haroon, the crystal moon...IIRC.
Though I haven't seen anything official; regarding that celestial body, to confirm that it in fact made its way beyond the concept-art stage. The bigger question is which Bosses are where and what order do we get to take them out?

Nar Shaada, TIE Contsruction facility = Kota
Felucia(1) = Shaak Ti
Haroon = ???
Raxis Prime = Kazdan Paratus
Bespin = ???
Tattooine = ??? (the SA going there does not sit well with me)
Felucia(2) = Maris (To recruit, not kill her)
Alderaan = ??? (No fighting there, maybe for the rebellion's birth?)
Kashyyyk = ???

Death Star = Vader

i also heard that it will be done in chapters. so the SA will spend maybe up to 3 or 4 chapters in one place at a time. but that is still uncertain, i don't even know they will be done in chapters it is just what i heard.

I still want to know who the Jedi is in the video of the Force punt. That doesn't look like Kota to me.

Also, what's with this?

IGN posted:


Although you'll play the majority of the game as the apprentice -- name withheld to protect the evil -- the initial outing in the game's story mode casts you as Mr. Padmé himself, Darth Vader.


I go back to my aforementioned fears. I hope this name isn't someone we already know.
