CES: First details of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

Some new details of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed from Ars Technica:

* Boss battles will be huge in scope, including a Rancor fight. There will be God of War-like button-tapping sections at the end of the battle, but it will only be for more points; you won't lose a battle by missing a button press

* There will be character and lightsaber customization, although you won't be able to dual-wield or have dual-bladed lightsabers

* The Wii version of the game will include a two-player duel mode where you can show off your lightsaber skills against a friend in the same room.

* The PSP version will contain classic scenes from other Star Wars movies with the more over-the-top force powers of Unleashed

I am a little shocked that there will be no options for Dual wielding or double bladed sabers. This means that Jedi Knight still keeps crown as far as I am concerned on the PC. Physics control should be quite interesting though even if I must use a single one bladed saber. This game needs a PC version so it can be modded to have dual and double bladed sabers. :P

4 - I hope the Wii version doesn't suck.

I'm excited for the Wii version. But i hope they actually try and go there best. I just don't want the game to end up with crappy controls and crappy graphics.

with it coming out on every system, ill bet that the wii version will get the least type of attention and really wont be that good, since they would need to spend alot of time getting the motion controls right, and well with everything else it is just different control schemes for every system besides the wii, so i dont predict that the wii version will be that good

5 - Cannot Wait

I've been wanting this game ever since I saw the Pre-vis Force Powers video. All of it sounds amazing (although dual-wield would have been the ultimate). Still cannot wait for this one. I hope they continue to give us more info. Perhaps a trailer on PSN & XBL.

Apparently it is coming to PS2 as well. All platforms, but the PC platform. I want it on the PC so I can have mods for the game. I know if Wii, PS2, and portables are playing it the majority of PC users should be able to do so as well.
