Love this game! Recently started playing it again when I someone gave me a Nintendo wii. The story just makes you want to keep playing. Graphics are good for the Wii, but the movements with the wii remote and min chuck really puts you in the game play. I also played Star Wars unleashed 2 on the PlayStation, the story was still good, but not as fun as the Wii.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
Game play, and graphics are great. However, this game is frustrating as hell to get past the 'bosses' on each level. I have given up playing this game after 2 weeks. If you're cool with pointlessly playing a super annoying game, then go for it.

I bought this game because I wanted it on the PS3 at first but I thought the Wii version might be more fun. I decided to buy it on eBay because I was still sketchy about it and I knew I would get it a lot cheaper on eBay. I've played only the demo of the PS3 version. The controls on the Wii, though, are actually more preferable than the PS3 version. It is always fun to live out your dreams of being a Jedi by having that feeling of swinging a lightsaber. I'm not sure if the PS3 and Wii versions are exactly the same, as in the stories might vary and gameplay may as well. So keep that in mind if I compare. Gameplay is pretty good but not amazing. The lightsaber is very responsive to your movements but when you specifically want to do an uppercut it may do a sideswing and combinations are hard when your actually trying, you'll have better luck hitting a combo by swinging like crazy. There is a constant dissatisfaction with the camera. You can't control the camera directly except for switching in and out of first-person view. The camera was my biggest problem with this game because when I would turn around the camera doesn't turn with you and for a while I'll just randomly swing at enemies I can't see until the camera turns. Graphics wise, they're not even close to, for example, the PS3 version. The Wii's graphics don't give the game justice. It's just enough to get the effect you need. But for me, graphics isn't the most important thing. Boss battles are fun and the game has enough enemies (who can be pretty tough) to keep you occupied and have fun slashing that lightsaber. Overall, it's a good game but it has so much more potential. I do recommend you try this one out, you'll like it if you're not too OCD on game specs. Again, if you're still not sure buy it on ebay because you know you'll get it cheaper. I got mine a little more than $20 cheaper than I would have in a store.Read full review
Having played the Xbox 360 version before this, I am leaning in favor toward the wii version. This is mainly because it is pretty different in many of the cutscenes, levels, and gameplay. The Wii version also comes with a 'dual-mode' where you can dual your friend in many different enviorments and with many different characters. So being different and the dual mode makes this game a bit more enjoyable. The differences in the game allow for a new way of playing and it's nice seeing a change from the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. For all of the good aspects of this game, there are also some not great ones. One of the main ones is that the graphics are terrible compared to Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. They might be good for a PS2, but even for the Wii the graphics aren't great. So if you care about that type of thing, then you may want to consider getting a different version. If you only have a wii though, it would not be a waste of money and I'd still recommend you buy it. One more note, your arm may get tired after a while which will affect how you play. Other than that this game is pretty decent and pretty entertaining. It allows for more of a less-linear gameplay with the dual mode feature and there's more interaction as there is with all Wii games. If I had to give it rating out of 10 I'd give it a 8.5.Read full review
In Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, you grab your trusty controller and wave it around, causing your onscreen counterpart to swing his lightsaber. If you're a Star Wars fan--and a Wii owner--you've undoubtedly anticipated this opportunity, though in this instance, it's a better idea than it is a real mechanic. Any type of flailing will do, so the direction of your swings won't really matter, and saber combat boils down to repetitive arm waving. When you throw in a variety of force powers and some poorly implemented quick-time events that all utilize motion controls, you'll find that Force Unleashed is possibly the most waggle-heavy action game available on the system, a distinction that seems fun for the first hour or so, only to quickly lose its appeal. Fortunately, all that random slashing about is somewhat mitigated by occasionally enjoyable action sequences that make you truly feel like a powerful dark Jedi.Read full review
