According to lead producer Vinde Kudirka, the goal of the game across all platforms is to make the player feel like "a super-powerful Jedi". [8] Executive producer Julio Torres said that while the story is consistent across platforms, gameplay decreases in style across platforms to reflect each platform's uniqueness and strengths. [8] The Wii's control scheme is focused on being able to precisely control Starkiller's Force powers and saber combos. [8] The Wii exclusive "Force rage" power puts the game's protagonist, Starkiller, into a bullet time mode exclusive to that platform; the Wii version also has a Force sight power not included on other platforms. [8] The Wii version also has a multiplayer mode, inspired by The Outfoxies (best known for inspiring the Super Smash Bros. series of fighting games), in which four players can challenge each other in a fighting-style combat game. [9] [10] The Wii game also has an extra story-based level, on Dagobah, that is not present in the HD version of the game, making the plot of the Wii game slightly different from the HD version. [11] Boss - Kazdan Paratus Kazdan puts up quite the fight, but with proper application of your Jedi powers, even he is no match for you. First up: Don't use your lightsaber - it's not worth it. Kazdan excels at hand to hand combat, so it's best to keep your distance, particularly since your lightsaber inflicts very little damage. I haven’t gone too in-depth with the story because it should be played to experience it. Just because it’s standard Star Wars doesn’t mean I want to spoil it for you. It’s also a fairly long game, giving players at least ten hours or so of galactic magic to soak up.

So far, The Force Unleashed does sound like a good time all round. If you’ve played the Xbox 360 or PS3 version beforehand, you’d know what to expect. Whereas if you’d played the Wii version instead, you’ll probably want to give this one a miss. a b c d Crecente, Brian (2008-09-30). "New Campaign, Characters Coming to The Force Unleashed". Kotaku.
