I can't speak for the 360 and its options, but the PS2(the console) has this hardware device called "Smartfrag" that had 2 ps2(the computer input, not the console). Just make sure you're using a ball mouse, not an optical, then get a PS2 to PS3 input converter, and you can use a keyboard and mouse with your PS3. Their are a couple Youtube videos of the process.

Of course, it's easy to "fuck all that!" but if you love the game, and you want a keyboard and a mouse, it's completely an option.

And yes, I do agree, mouse look for life.

Not sure if it has it or not but I am not buying this game if it does not have a decent multiplayer.

Fuck you guys.

Btw, controlling your saber throw and mowing down a pack of troopers with a single toss = win.

While I agree it was a good demo, I don't think comparing it to KOTOR will do any of the games justice. They're not even in the same genre if you ask me.

I really enjoyed it, only played it for a few min though as i was raiding. Being a main tank and playing xbox doesnt mix lol. Anyways, it reminds me of the old Star Wars games on the SNES but in 3D. I am probably going to pick this game up.

Im not sure what you mean, this game makes Xenogears look laughably bad.

I found the demo really is going to show other game makers how wood harvesting and ore mining can be done well.

Flesseck · 08-22-2008, 04:18 AM

The demo kicked some royal ass. Holy shit. I was staring at my screen in awe as I really just lost myself in the combat and gameplay. I foresee the retail version to be loads of fun.

Yeah I don't get the KOTOR comment either, other than the fact they are both star wars games. Demo was pretty cool. What does the Wii version look like? I really can't see waggling the controller making anyone pick it over the 360 or PS3.

matmanx2 · 08-22-2008, 06:31 AM

I enjoyed the heck out of the PS3 version of the demo. Did the tutorial before I jumped into the demo and that really helped me get a handle on the force throw and grab.

And considering the amount of stuff going on with the physics I can easily overlook the graphics not being as polished as say, MGS4. The action, the music and the overall "cool" factor will sell this game. Very fun!

I think it's an appropriate comparison. It's not like the games are unrelated -- they're both of the Star Wars universe. And you certainly CAN compare two unlike games... Bioshock beats the shit out of Fusion Frenzy 2 (I don't think anyone -- smartasses notwithstanding -- would refute this.)

So... yeah, this game looks superior to KotOR, imo.

Blank · 08-22-2008, 07:47 AM

I just assumed Sean meant Jedi Knight (or one of it's sequels). :| Kind of makes more sense comparison-wise than KOTOR... but whatever.

Yes. It also looks better than every other game from 2003.

Wombat · 08-22-2008, 09:48 AM

KotOR's combat was never its strong suit though: aside from force leaping around to start fights, by and large your dual wielding death machines had the fights over with before any real complexity in commands could be put in.

You could say that Force Unleashed does a better job recreating the Star Wars environments than KotOR does, but then again, KotOR takes place thousands of years before Star Wars, so they shouldn't look exactly the same...

Yes, well. I wasn't talking about the graphics. Maybe whoever made the initial comparison was, but I wasn't. Looks like a better game.
