Just got done playing the demo. Moving things around was pretty easy and fun. Best game since Dark Forces/Jedi Knight.
 
so great. it's everything I expected it would be. Pre-ordered the PS3 version, and paid in full yesterday. Went PS3 over 360 for two reasons. It gives me a second game on my PS3, so my MGS4 case has someone to hang out with, and I remember reading that the developers said they had an easier time getting the physics engine to work on the ps3 than they did on the 360. Either way, It will be good. I'm also glad to see so many people giving it a shot, despite it's lack of multiplayer :monkey5
 
I'm pretty confident the rest of the game will be better than the demo, but the demo has made me a lot less likely to buy it day 1. The story will be cool though.
 
Just played it and ^^^^ing loved it! I dig the Starkiller character and I love that he fights with his lightsaber hilt upwards. While in a film it might seem out of place, I love that you can pick up a TIE Fighter and toss it around. Fighting the Walker was awesome and I played the Demo three times in a row. Not only is this a must buy game it just might be a midnight pick up kind of game. :rock

And here I am debating which is worse, to wait partially through the day for UPS to deliver it, or to have to leave the house and go get it earlier. :lol

I agree. It may end up being a rental for me. Come to think of it there really has only been one demo I've ever played that confirmed me wanting to buy the game and that was the demo for Bioshock. I've often wondered if demos hurt sales of games more than help.
 
Thought the demo was pretty average to be honest. Fun in such a short burst, but 12+ hours of this would bore me. Better than most SW games, but that doesn't say a lot recently. Plus the God of War button combo to beat the AT-ST wasn't refined/responsive enough, or the resulting action spectacular enough IMO. Good, but an easy pass.
 
I hope the final game has some more polish to it. For a game that is being hyped so much some of the graphics looked fuzzier than I expected (though this might be because they were condensed to download) and the movement seemed a little awkward and less natural than I thought it would be. The jumping was weird and the lightsaber feels more like a club than a sword slicing through things.

And whats with the bodies and all the debris disappearing? The TIE fighters blow up in a explosion and then what's left is vaporized? Lame...if this game is all about showing the Force off in way never before then how about showing all the destruction with it? Blowing open bulk doors and blasting Stormtroopers around can only go so far. How about showing the damage that is done to what's around you?

This game may end up suffering from being overhyped.

The SCIV Apprentice LOOKS and MOVES much better than the actual Force Unleashed Apprentice!!!!!

I'm still going to get it and take it for a whirl but I hope it doesn't disappoint.

To me the apprentice looks better than the SCIV version, but the SCIV version is higher resolution (as far as 3D model) but the FU version has better shading and textures.
 
We'll see in the final version, but I did not see anything in the demo that compared to this screenshot of the graphics.

Actually, the story is actually what I worry about the most. But I think the game is going to be fun to play regardless. I'm still getting it Day 1, but don't expect to be overwhelmed or amazed.

Don't forget that you level up during the game so that could be a leveled up force push attack in your screenshot.

He's talking about the visual quality of the graphic, which is substantially more detailed than the game (I think it may be a piece of rendered production art actually, because it doesn't look like an actual gameplay shot)
 
^^^^ing hell!@!@! Still no demo on my psn store.. I'm running a region 2( is that ntsc-J?? ) ps3 could that have any thing to do with that? I heard the stores had different content for different regions.

Hmm. I enjoyed the Vader cut scene more than the actual demo. Seeing a continuation of the SW story with the Emperor and Vader instead of that whiny, piss ant Anakin is what interests me the most. It could go horribly wrong though if they subvert the known Imperial storyline with this new apprentice stuff. At least Battle Damaged Vader will be cool.
 
My PS3 is dead. Looking forward to playing this game on the 360.

I have heard that the storyline has major impact on the established canon. That makes me nervous...
