I liked this game, a decade old but still holds a candle up to other Star Wars titles save maybe KOTOR and is canon as far as I'm concerned even if Disney found a way to discard this into the legendary version along with any other Star Wars not owned by Disney. This series was a staple in Hollywood aside from maybe Neverending Story and other franchises milked for all they are worth. Back in the day when Devil May Cry was the cream de la creme of action games apart from its attempted competitor Kingdom Hearts, guess who TFU took after? If you said DMC then I'd agree since they didn't require timing prompts, just cool combos on the boss until they fell flat for you to get a cool new weapon. I remember playing this game on the PS2 back when PS was gold standard console gaming for nerdy gamers who watched anime on weekends, went to FYE at the mall, engaged in online chat role play when Cheetah Chat and Yahoo were king there and playing JRPGs was the only other thing they enjoyed as they weren't the rocker kids who were headbanging to nu-metal or industrial nor the public school preppy kids who were listening to pop/dance pop or hip-hop and rap... Nope, they were into whatever people found dorky. I however think this game was released prior to 2010 which is telling of graphical quality and general design. This PC version however, I noticed glitches, bugs and crashing galore meaning it clearly wasn't optimized for PC like any console port, causes you to wonder if the devs even know what a porting is and my PC is more than adequate to run the game that is over 15 years old. The sails got holes in them Lucasarts or Disney, patch them up or this game is in peril in turbulent seas. Still a classic, still needs loose ends neatly tied up.
