Star Wars Force Unleashed IGN Preview
Whether you’re a Star Wars fan or not, you probably know the basics of the story behind that galaxy far, far away in events taking place a long time ago. That’s where the newest game enters based on that galaxy: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed takes place after Episode III, involving Darth Vader nominating you as his apprentice. Since this is supposed to be the “next big thing” in the Star Wars story, George Lucas himself is getting his grubby paws into the game as much as possible.
Anyway, the game is shaping up to be pretty brilliant. Fantastic lighting (and lightning) effects, incredibly emotional characters (above and beyond anything achieved in the latest three movies!), gorgeous worlds… this game is looking damn good. Hopefully the story will hold up, too. We’re not going to go into what IGN covers in their preview — it’s simply too long and everything too important to summarize, but if you take the time to read it, you’ll get pumped too. Might be the first Star Wars game I’ll actually purchase since the N64 Shadows of the Empire. That game was awesome.
