Product Description: You are the "Secret Apprentice" to Darth Vader in Star Wars -The Force Unleashed. You'll help him in his villainous quest to rid the universe of Jedi. You will hunt the Jedis across the galaxy, from the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk to the junkyard planet Raxus Prime and the mushroom-covered Felucia. You will be aided by your loyal sidekick PROXY - a prototype holodroid with amazing abilities, and a beautiful Imperial pilot named Juno Eclipse. You will clash with powerful Force wielders, including the spirited Zabrak warrior Maris Brood, and General Rahm Kota, a hard-boiled Jedi soldier who senses that you are destined to become something far greater than just Darth Vader's servant. New revelations about the Star Wars galaxy are unveiled in this expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas. It is set during the era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.

Rating: - Best Game Yet for the DS
Too many people are comparing the DS version to the Xbox 360 or PS3 version. You can't do that and be unbiased. There is no way the game can be rendered or played the same way on the DS as it is on the stationary console systems. I own it for both DS and 360 and it's a great game for both. But I think as far as DS games goes it really shines. Beautifully rendered graphics for the DS, excellent sound, and a wonderful storyline. If you're a DS buff like myself and enjoy portable games more than console games this is a must own for your favorite pocket pal.
Rating: - awsome!!!!!!!!
this game rocks!!!! at first i knew it would be bad by reading an amazon.com review but when i bought it it was awsome but at wal-mart (were i bought mine) its $35.00 witch is alittle to much for a little chip
Rating: - Killer interface
Before it came out, I was curious as to how the interface would work, and I was pleasantly surprised.
Rating: - DS Version of the game bites
So my wife bought me a Nintendo DS for my birthday a few months ago. I was really looking forward to playing Star Wars The Force Unleashed. I really wish it had come out on the PC, but alas, Lucas Arts chose not to do it. My wife won't let me buy a PS3 or X-Box 360.
The concept of the game and the trailers for it looked incredible. The DS version of the game is horrible. The camera angles, and the movement when you are fighting enemies is terrible. The thing I don't like about the DS version most of all, is that you have to use your finger or the stylus to do any of the fighting moves or jumping. The directional pad and the X, Y, B, A keys only move the character forward, backwards, or left, or right. I don't really feel like I am playing the game anymore, what a terrible idea. The graphics are bad as well, I have been playing Lego Indiana Jones and the graphics are better than this game. It seems like the developers didn't even try very hard. If you really want this game, get it on one of the main gaming systems, or wait until the price drops to $15, it is not worth what I paid for it. The X-Box 360 and PS3 version look a lot better. Let's also mention the fact that the dialogue is no dialogue at all, it like watching the dialogue in the old Zelda games where you get a picture of who is talking and then read what they are saying, totally lame for this day and age.
