This game is fun, even if you aren't a Star Wars fanatic. The force powers were made like we all wanted them to be. Force push and grip (much better than choke) are some of my favorites. The actual list of powers is: Grip, throw (push), repusle (radial push), lightning (of course), and saber throw.
You are Vaders secret apprentice between episodes 3 and 4 (the new and old movies for nubs). In the 360 version the graphics are much better and the saber style is slightly different, he holds it backwards and puts it away when using the force (except saber throw of course). The Wii version has an entire mode that the 360 doesn't however, not sure why it doesn't but w/e. The Wii version has a duel mode for 2 player action. I'll let Dave expand on that if he wants to.
The game itself isn't all that hard, some of the puzzles are unobvious (not necessarily hard, just annoying to find the answer). So the game might not be much of a challenge for most rpg players.
It's a fun game if a little short, and the Wii version has another mode. If you don't mind the graphics loss I would recommend the Wii version over the 360.

i just want to say that the duel mode, while it is fun, is not really anything special. it wont ever be something really competitive. its good for just a "hey wanna duel for a bit" kinda deal, but dont get me wrong its still pretty fun, almost like wario ware games they are fun, but not for hours on end, but you always go back eventually

Give me a system like the NES where the games were either excellent with gameplay or fell into a boiling vat of burning oil.
So many games nowadays forget how to be fun and immersive in favor of good graphics; futhermore, how many good games were ignored because they had bad graphics?
I may be eating my words if I get spoiled by playing the 360, but I just like something that's fun to do with other people and is interesting to puzlle out. On another point, is the level design in the wii version of the force unleashed different from the 360's?
Thanks for the review, Ice

I'm not sure, I think the game plays slightly different, but I do believe it is the same story, I'll ask Sean (who has the Wii version) next time I see him, which should be soon.
