I just keep coming back to the TFU series this. Twice on console, twice on retail PC and now twice on digital. Teach me to buy digital in the first place stops me trading them in all the time.

The one thing I have a problem with is that on consoles it has working costume physics but on 1 at least ( I'm about to start 2 on PC) your legs just phase through your clothes and stuff. It makes costumes that would look cool otherwise just seem like they put no work into it. I really like the game except for the slight problems with the PC port.

One thing I noticed that was funny is that the Jedi Temple DLC for 1 is included in the Wii game as part of the story...

the original force unleashed have a bad gameplay and its waay too hard. i finished the first fu, im playing the second one right now, for the first time. And still hate the first. its bad. besides the story, its bad.

people just dont like it i have no idea why but they dont i have played one about 5 times (once on ps2 3 times on ps3 and my pc sucks way too much to play it on pc and a few times on DS) and 2 about 3 times (once on wii twice on Xbox and once on Ps3) and i very much enjoyed slicing up storm troopers and dropping rebels off cliffs with force grip but i guess everyone expects call of duty from games these days

i think it mostly comes from some glaring plot elements as well as some mechanical issues, but otherwise it was a rather quirky, fun, non-canon addition to the star wars universe

Issue with Force unleashed 2 is that it's short and the ending is terrible You choose will you join Dark side or Good side and then it ends there....

Not really. If you look at my recent 7 pictures, my game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

I enjoyed the first one.
Second one... the problems are:

1) It's too short, as many have mentioned
2) The environment is uncreative and repetitive... the vast majority consisting inside of a grey imperial ship/base.
3) Lack of memorable boss battles

The second one would have been a decent DLC. As a standalone game.... not so much.

The game isn't that bad per se. It was great on a Xbox 360. But when you port this over to PC, the graphics options, etc. etc. (it was a lazy port, I'm not gonna pull any punches) - it's disappointing. I mean, look at the graphics menu and that's all you really have to say in regards to whether or not this port was well done or if it was slapped on together to appease the PC gamers.

For starters i can not change any of the graphics & resolution settings, sure as hell don't wannat play 30 fps @ 720p resolution, WTF ! ! !
- Update: for some reason when i loaded up the game a 2nd time & used the mouse it allowed me to change the resolution & graphics settings.
wierd how that is & i didn't have to change my desktop res to do this.
Game visuals look pretty good but it seems they have "dumbed down" the skills & saber menu choices.
1 other thing is this game, for me needs Vsync ON

I was happy with the 1st game :))

Anyone who paid full price on release only to beat it within a few hours was bound to feel ripped off, myself included

This is literally QTE: The Game. So much potential, but instead you end up with repeating set pieces, awkward camera and controls and pacing pretty hacked apart by the QTEs. It certainly has it's fun moments which makes it all the more frustrating.

Very short and added nothing to the series while only for die hards ubers fans. I liked this game, but even it made no sense to me other than a cash crab.
