It's a sad truth that most of the best Star Wars based games that have come out over the years have been PC exclusives. Classics like X-Wing and TIE Fighter, as well as the brilliant Jedi Knight series, these are games which deserve to carry the Star Wars name, but console gamers have had to miss...

Force powers are impactful and impressive; Physics engine brings the world to life; Excellent soundtrack and voice work

Shallow story fails to live up to the standard set by the first Force Unleashed title; Some really frustrating control issues & inconsistent targeting system

When gamers first popped in their copies of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed , they expected to see plenty of destruction as delivered by cranked-up versions of Force powers, and that's exactly what they got.

When it's not soiled by revisionist talk of midichlorians or a "chosen one," the Force is still the coolest thing in the universe. Really, who wouldn't want the powers of a god and an anything-slicing energy sword? Anyone?

+ Enhanced combat is the highlight of the game; new abilities add spark, + Some gaffes from last time (QTE abuse and confusing boss battles) are addressed

- Story lacks Star Wars grandeur; finale is fairly lame; short game, ? Can we get Starkiller in a TV series or movie?

2008's Star Wars: The Force Unleashed reportedly sold seven million units. So, it's no surprise its Vader's-secret-apprentice protagonist has--spoiler alert!--cheated death to return in a sequel.

I am a fan of Star Wars previous Games and of course a fan of George Lucas.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 always gives the best in mood and violence

Plot was missing some information; Not as good as the First Game

To summarise if you liked the first game then you'll love the second. Whilst the game is extremely short (having me finish it in a single sitting), quite repetitive in places and the mere eight challenges do little to add the much desired replay value, it's a blast whilst it lasts.

A brilliant engine to cause chaos on; Surprisingly engaging story; Beautiful and immersive world

Very short story mode; Shallow challenge mood; Repetitive enemies and combat

I liked this game. I played the demo off Xbox live and got hooked, so I purchased the game. It's easy to get lost in the Star Wars universe, even if you're not a hardcore fan. I enjoyed the story line, the developing character - the cinema sequences were really good quality, I was impressed.

Overall this game is great but I finished the main storyline in a few hours. Therefore I feel that there should have been more to the story and there shouldn't have been more extras to it.
