So on May 4th they finally announced the release date of the Force Unleashed 2, which is October 26th. Following this information I suffered what some call a “nerdgasm”.
The first game had one of the best storylines since the original trilogy, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. So to hear that they are somehow resurrecting the main character who died in the first one, doesn’t even bother me. Bring it on. I want some badass force lightning shit that will make a wookie explode or something. The last game was awesome, even with a smidge of clunky gameplay. They can only make that gameplay better, so I expect big things.
Something else that bothered me in the original was that it was supposed to be a huge epic scale game, but you couldn’t explore crap. I wanted to slam my lightsaber through a spaceship wall and make someones head explode all while running around an ice planet, but I just didn’t get that awesomeness. I did get to dominate a Rancor, and crush an AT-AT with my mind which does blow my face right off. Yet, I want more and im ready for more epic shit.
The trailer for the game is pretty awesome looking, which I have included for you, right here.
The trailer, and website don’t explain what the hell resurrected him and what for but Im sure with LucasArts creativity I will accept it and like it. They haven’t shown any gameplay yet but Im sure in the coming months we’ll get a taste. If I had my choice, Id be able to literally cut ANYTHING with my lightsaber. Im tired of swinging that bastard against a wall and it does nothing. THAT’S HORSESHIT! Lightsabers cut ANYTHING. Let me cut shit George Lucas!
Outside of this new game, there is still some other Star wars stuff on the horizon like the cartoon clone wars series, Lego Star Wars 3, and the new MMORPG The Old Republic. With all these titles comin up hopefully LucasArts doesn’t give the Force Unleashed 2 a backseat to development, or im cutting someone.
