Star Wars Force Unleashed Demo: Wow I allmost don't miss multiplayer.

 

   When this game was originally announced there was going to be online multiplayer lightsaber and force dueling.  This game was going to be just like the Wii version except with online rather than just offline.

   The game has taken a LONG TIME to get here and still needs all most one more month.  For what I don't know, considering when doing an Interview with X-PLAY the lead guy on the project said that the game is done.

   But this is all a digression because this demo blew me away.  You are allowed to use Force Lightning, Force push, Force grip, and probably some other stuff I didn't get to play with.  This is going to be the BEST STAR WARS game EVER!  I think it has handily blown away KOTOR and KOTOR 2 as the undisputed king of the franchise.

   The demo allows the player to run through most of the first level of the game after you actually become the Apprentice.  The controls are great and with the exception of a few instances where you run out of Force Juice(which you have to wait a second or two to recharge), you feel like a god.  The only thing I couldn't do that I wanted to was snatching a TIE FIGHTER out of the sky and crashing it.

   I can't wait to play the final version on September 16th.  I only wish the game was coming sooner.  I'm just hoping there is some replayability here.
