New video demo

[Darth_Rob]

So here is a new video released. It shows gameplay from each system TFU will be on, and developers explain differences each system will have. The Wii version looks like a lot of fun. Im glad there will be a PS2 version also, incase the Wii controls dont workout as nicely as they should.

Looks really neat to use a device to move you lightsaber.

 

Why is there no version for the PC?

I dunno why its console-exclusive.

 

Here is another video which shows how you play as Darth Vader during the first level of the game. Im getting more and more excited.

 

Here is a report from joystiq that talks about the Wiis lightsaber duel mode

My guess is like most developers, they are avoiding the p2p problem by dropping out of PC releases initially and focusing on a controlled market in consoles. I'd have no surprise that a month after the release on console, they announce a PC port. X360 code is basically 90% ready for PC compile anyways. Also, the notion of physics processing, this game engine is demanding... keep in mind that the PS3 has a main cpu with seven subprocessors, and the X360 has 3 cores capable of executing two threads each... to use this game engine on PC would require at least quad core I'm thinking. It's already been stated by the developers that the Wii and PS2 versions are different engines, gone are the fully destructible environments and particle physics. I do have a PS3 though, and looking forward to this game when available.

Most of the beginning of The Force Unleashed revealed. My, but that Next Gen stuff looks pretty.

That looks really neat. I didnt realize it was gonna delve into the beginnings of the Rebellion. I am really excited for this game.
