Game: StarWars, Force Unleashed

Great storyline, excellent gameplay. Not quite perfect, but only because it had a few moments that were too cheesy.

You are Darth Vader’s apprentice, raised in secret for twenty years as his personal agent, capable of using the dark side of the force. Hunt jedi down and snuff out the light, destroy all who stand in your way. No matter what adversity, or where you go, the force will be your only true ally. Hell, it’s tempting to use the force against all enemies..it’s usually more effective than the lightsaber, and more devistating.

All compliments to the gameplay aside, they made the main character ‘too’ powerful. Yeah, that’s the biggest problem I have with this one. This guy could easily kill off Vader and the Emperor at once..hell, he drags a Star Destroyer to the ground with the force. Last time I checked, lifting something the size of a car was tough even with the force. Tossing an entire building, though? Nope. I’d buy the game, but not the sheer level of power the main character has.

Prepare yourself, agent ‘Starkiller’. The very fabric of the universe is yours to command. Bring glory to the Empire with your missions, and above all, allow none to know of your existance. At least, no one alive..
