Flinging a light saber and mowing down trees , even beats shooting down trees in crysis.

Those trees where thick too. O.O Would make Landscaping so much fun.

Any body else notice the blaster shots going straight through the character while he was using his force powers? I hope that gets fixed , he should be swiping them away with his light saber

meepmoopmeep6363d ago

yeah i noticed that too... kinda dumb if the blasts don't hurt you while using the force... i mean how many enemies can you pick up at the same time and are the others just going to stand there and fire shots that always miss you?

He could be taking damage that we just cant see(hud turned off) or they simple could have turned on god mode for the purpose of the demonstration which wouldn't be to unusual.

InMyOpinion6363d ago

Although it looks awesome I still think the developers have some work left. Stuff like the bullet detection you mentioned might not have been implemented yet.

Rockwallaby6363d ago

From a technical stand point this game is very impressive, fell off my radar for a while.

GIJeff6363d ago

Am I the only one who thinks games are slowly becoming more of tech demos and less of games? I mean, crysis looks like a compilation of tech demos rolled into a somewhat generic(i admit sometimes fun, but not any more fun than playing with a tech demo)game. And now this? BF too? I think thats why i wasnt able to enjoy portal as most sheeple were, just because in the back of my mind, i kept thinking "this is a school tech demo project, not an actual game". They slapped some minor game objectives onto tech demos and call them games now. To me this is getting old.

Genki6363d ago

but you've gotta remember that different things will appeal to different people. If a game doesn't have what you're looking for, that's why we play other things.

I agree with you, a lot of games lack depth in certain areas that make them seem more like tech demos, but games have been like that since time immemorial.

Look at Pac-Man. Try telling someone all about the depth and intricacies of a game like that. I agree with you, but that sort of thing appeals to some people, and I don't think that makes them right or wrong.

Some folks like a great narrative that immerses them in the game universe. Others like environmental interactivity and unpredictable variables to immerse them in theirs. They can both coexist peacefully IMO, but I don't think one should be shoehorned into a game to feign complementing the other...

For example, it's no big secret that Mario games have always been about innovative and simple gameplay. They don't force a convoluted narrative down our throats, they say "This is who you are, here's your objectives and this is what you can do". I don't see anything wrong with that so long as that's what's INTENDED.

A game like Star Wars though, is definitely treading dangerous waters with this. The tech being juiced into it could very well undermine the universe and story itself, but to be fair, we don't know much about the story yet, so declaring the game a tech demo now would be jumping to a pretty lofty conclusion. Could be though.

Shankle6362d ago

Well they are writing in the chapters between episodes 3 and 4, and George Lucas is closely involved, so expect the story to be pretty damn good.

MK_Red6363d ago

Insanely awesome ideas and footage but those cool power would make a great game only if they are used along with good level design and controls. Hopefully that's the case and we can have a Star Wars game that can join the ranks of KOTOR and EaW as the best SW game ever.

force unleashed is a great game. Thankfully the 360 version is bc on the XBO/Series. It looks and plays even better than on original hardware.

Knightofelemia733d ago

I am not a Star Wars fan but I enjoyed the Force Unleashed and the sequel. Shadows of the Empire was another Star Wars game I also enjoyed.

RpgSama733d ago

I had Shadows of the Empire on N64 and I used to finish that game basically weekly. LOVED that game.
