MTV Multiplayer's Stephen Totilo reports:

"Who should a game creator listen to?

Which criticisms of their game should they most take to heart?

When I interviewed "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" producer Haden Blackman recently about the game's upcoming downloadable content, I asked if we could chat about the reception that game has received. The game has sold more than 1.5 million copies, so it's popular. It's reviews were okay.

The game's story has been widely praised in reviews and among all the gamers who've played it that I've spoken to. Its gameplay hasn't been as broadly well-received, though it has fans as well.

But with the feedback being so mixed, which responses can you trust? This is what Blackman has decided..."

Playstation Blog: The game is finally done, after several years of hard work by an incredibly talented team, and I can now just enjoy playing the game and begin to reflect on the experience of building it. When I do look back on the development effort, I'm amazed and humbled by the fact that we actually managed to finish the game. As the first internally-developed title from LucasArts in quite some time, we bit off several huge challenges, including: building a brand new game engine and tools from scratch for two new (at the time we started, anyway) platforms (including PlayStation 3); crafting a new story that bridges the gap between the two Star Wars trilogies; assembling a new team that had never worked together before; and integrating new and cutting-edge simulation-based technologies. Along the way, we also formed a new and unique partnership with our sister company Industrial Light & Magic, and worked closely with Krome Studios in Australia on the PS2 and PSP versions of the game.

Jeff Rubenstein on Official PlayStation.Blog:

"I'm pretty confident that any gamer with at least a passing interest in the Star Wars universe knows that Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is coming to the PLAYSTATION 3, PS2, and PSP this month (September 16th, to be exact).

That's why SCEA is teaming up with LucasArts and Best Buy to mark the midnight release of the game in San Francisco on the night of September 15th - and everyone's invited to the launch party. Beginning at 7pm, the 1717 Harrison St. Best Buy location (that's my hood!) will feature appearances by Sam Witwer (Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice - and main character of the game), as well as a number of other cast members. From the game development side, Executive Producer Haden Blackman and others from LucasArts will be on hand. Attendees will be able to play the full version of the game in advance, and take photos with Star Wars characters."

Consider it "Star Wars III and a Half" - complete with a pivotal plot twist. When LucasArts releases "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" on Sept. 16, the video game will serve as George Lucas' official median between 2005's "Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith" and 1977's "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope." In the game, players become Darth Vader's secret apprentice and use The Force to hunt the remaining Jedi.
