Then what? You think your Li'l Witch buddy's
gonna stop with us? You saw her! She's a truck
driving Magic Mamma. We've got maybe seconds
before Darth Rosenberg grinds everybody into
Jawa-burgers, and not one of you bunch has the midiclorians to stop her

The only thing I worry about is how badly the Wii version will hold up. What we're seeing is obviously from the 360/PS3. As much as I'd love to have some Wiimote lightsaber action, I just have a feeling this is going to hold up like a weak PS2 port. The Wii is capable of more (look at the Nintendo-developed games), but most 3rd parties don't seem to be doing much aside from porting PS2 games (just look at the engine of the Iron Man game on the Wii...horridly ugly).

Yeah, the third-party developers have been pretty stupid when it comes to the Wii. It's not as graphically powerful as the 360 or PS3, but it's by no means weak. It's also the most popular console, with the most potential for sales. It seems some developers are catching onto this now, but the fact it's taken almost two years of the Wii's life is pretty disappointing.

I couldn't agree with you more. The main developers seem to know how to handle the Wii graphically, but the third party game developers are either very lazy or very unwilling to realize that the Wii isn't a weak system. It's graphically weaker than the 360 and the PS3, but it's not bad. I just hope that the Force Unleashed isn't as bad as we're seeing, because it has potential to be one of the better versions of the game, even if it isn't so graphically.

Blasphemy. This review sounds good though, the little problems seem to be covered by the greatness of this game and all it's opportunity.

We're crossing our lightsabers that when the game's released we'll see that there's much more to the Secret Apprentice than some fancy Force powers and an emo scowl.


laugh

He is rather emo, isn't he?

I know, but it seems almost blasphemous that a young apprentice created solely for a game is compared, and beats out, the great Jedi master Yoda. But I get what your saying, and I guess the game wouldn't be as fun if you were limited in the power of the force.

Wow, Swiiiiish. I could've sworn they were saying that about the apprentice but I guess I was just out of it. Well, if it's Vader, then thats not bad at all.

I've always wanted to see Yoda fight Vader, just cause he'd get pwned.
