star wars the force unleashed 2: e3 2010 exclusive trailer

In 2008 I remember playing the first installment on the xbox 360 but I just couldn’t get over the many control quirks that resulted in an uneven combat, dodgy camera, ridiculously difficult UI and other game mechanic bugs that came with The Force Unleashed. Judging by the endless forum posts and negative gaming blog reviews, I wasn’t alone. Fast forward two years and a lot has happened in game design that we can now look at The Force Unleashed 2 with new eyes. LucasArts acknowledged players’ frustration with the first game’s targeting system, and worked to revise it in the sequel. Developers said fixing the Force grip feature was their top priority. TFU2 will also include fewer enemy types, instead focusing on making enemies more “‘special and unique’” and “epic” boss battles. A big difference from the first installment is the fact that the sequel will portray lightsabers as they were in the Star Wars films, that is, being able to dismember an enemy, something most Star Wars games do not contain. I really look forward towards this title and can’t wait until we see some gameplay at E3 tomorrow! Until then, enjoy the trailer.
