That part is still red hot trash, this game just has way way to many issues. It just feels like they never finished it.

ah ok. its like when obi-wan tells luke to turn off his targeting system and trust in his instincts.

…

I’m sure that’s how lucasarts justifies the pointless on-screen prompts. I’ll try this again when I get home.

For those who still play this game…the DLC is out for 360/PS3.

Not long after LucasArts loosed Star Wars: The Force Unleashed on a galaxy not so far away, the publisher said it was already melding a fresh batch of downloadable content for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editions. Included in the pack, according to LucasArts, would be an all-new level featuring the Secret Apprentice that augments the single-player campaign. Without much of a warning this week, LucasArts said that the content is now available.

The aforementioned new mission will be set in the Jedi Temple, former center of the vanquished order’s power, on the city-world Coruscant. Playing as Darth Vader’s understudy, players will explore the ruins for clues to his origins in general–and his father in particular. The download will also include nine new character skins, letting gamers play through the single-player campaign as a variety of Star Wars staples ranging from purple-lightsaber-wielding Mace Windu to the sinister Darth Maul.

Gamers can pick up the lot for $10 (800 Microsoft points). Alternatively, the new costume set is available alongside the previously released costume pack for $5 (400 Microsoft points). For more on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, check out GameSpot’s full review.

$10 for 1 level?
$5 for a skin pack(9)?

Not likley paying for this anytime soon…I’ll wait for some reviews.

I would take Golden Axe: Beast Rider over Ninja Gaiden II. I’m just sayin’.
Anyways, how long is this game? Is it long enough to merit buying it or anything?

Zero · December 6, 2008, 5:04pm

Nope.

The game is way too short in my opinion. Gameplay is pretty average too. Like the story though.

Yuna · December 6, 2008, 5:22pm

Well damn. That’s a real pisser-offer. I was hoping this game wouldn’t suck.

What is the Dark Side Won:

The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition

Valaris · July 25, 2009, 11:22pm

Oh fucking hot! I don’t care about all the bad critics, I fucking loved TFU. This is a definite buy on day one.

Arsenal · July 26, 2009, 12:13am

How was the PS2 version of TFU? I don’t own a PS3/360, but do dig GoW/DMC-esque action games. Is it worth me to pick up TFU for the PS2?

Valaris · July 26, 2009, 12:14am

Wait Optimus: is that a new game or DLC?

Geese_Pants · July 26, 2009, 1:18am

It’s DLC…and I’ll be getting this as well.

The PS2 version is actually pretty good…what I like about it is that it’s not a direct port of the PS3/360. It has different stages.

Arsenal · July 26, 2009, 3:45am

If I can find it cheap, I’ll pick it up then. Maybe because it’s LucasArts, but I haven’t seen a price drop on TFU in forever, even though it’s semi-old and not a system selling title. Meh.

YellowS4 · July 26, 2009, 3:47am

What threw me off about the DLC when I read other sources is that they mentioned PC versions… but they never released TFU on PC lol

Geese_Pants · July 26, 2009, 4:20am

What?
PS3/360 version are $29.99…and the rest are $19.99.

matrix9280 · July 26, 2009, 5:25am

The Xbox 360 version is 19.99 at Gamestop. I’m not sure about the PS3 though I’d guess it’s the same price.

MVC2FAN15 · July 26, 2009, 5:37am

I plan on getting the new DLC for the game. Instead of you being Darth Vaders apprentice, you are Darth Sidious apprentice. From the video, looks like some of the bosses will be Boba Fett, Obi Wan Kenobi, and Luke Skywalker.

Arsenal · July 27, 2009, 1:54am

Thanks. I gotta get out more; last time I was in a Target/Wal-Mart, TFU for PS2 was still 39.99.

System_1 · July 27, 2009, 2:49am

this game is like the buggiest game ever i heard

Azrael · July 27, 2009, 3:56am

TFU wasn’t bad, just really unpolished. It would have been awesome with a little fine tuning.

Apprentice

Spoiler

Isn’t that still Starkiller though? In the “bad” ending Starkiller kills Vader and then Sidious taps him to become his apprentice.

Geese_Pants · August 11, 2009, 8:58pm

For those who didn’t get SW:TFU, but been thinking about it…The Ultimate Sith edition disc is $40.

I think that is a good deal simply because it has the original TFU game + all previous DLC + the new Sith missions.
