Wii - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Star Wars for Wii a port of the PS2 version Unfortunately, some companies have been remiss in their efforts to port games to the Wii. Because of the number of abysmal ports that have populated the Wii, gamers have, for the most part, conceded any hope of a great port on the system. According to Mark Combs, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for the Wii is a port of the PS2 version. Hopefully Star Wars on the Wii will restore some faith that ports on the system can be developed successfully.

"Well, the lead development has been done in Brisbane on the PS2, and that is the first point of call with all workings between Lucas Arts and Krome. So what we're doing here is taking the PS2 development, putting it on the Wii, and making all the Wii specific stuff here. So, lead point is PS2 in Brisbane, to make that clear." - Mark Combs (Producer of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed)

When it comes to the Star Wars universe, Haden Blackman is the most knowledgeable man alive (outside of George Lucas, of course). At one point in his career, he was the guy in charge of continuity across every single piece of Star Wars product in existence. Now, LucasArts has tapped his veritable font of wisdom and lore by making him the project lead for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, which takes place during the tumultuous-but-unexplored years between Episodes III and IV. LucasArts invited us ... » Read More

New details have come in on the (slightly) anticipated Wii version of The Force Unleashed, which finally brings saber-swinging Jedi antics to Nintendo's console. Unfortunately though, it's sounding like a far cry from the 1:1 saber swinging we were hoping for. According to the latest Game Informer, The Force Unleashed will not use the Wii Remote for 1:1 lightsaber swinging, but instead your Force Powers will be motion controlled. Force Push, for example, is pulled off by (you guessed it) ... » Read More

* 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

* 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.

7 Nov, 2007 Two upcoming games offer lightsaber control via the Wii remote - Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga and the still-very-much-under-wraps Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Having already sampled the former, we know that the on-screen saber-wielder performs only a loose interpretation of the gestures executed by the player. So why are we not given complete control over our luminescent stick? Jonathan Smith from TT Games - the developer behind the brilliant Lego Star Wars series - ... » Read More

Star Wars: Force Unleashed is a fantastic idea. Forget all the morality bumf, the good-or-bad dilemma. Let's just get busy with the Force Lightning, Force Choke and Force grab a humoungous Star Destroyer from the sky and smash it into the ground for fun. Like in this new trailer. While the beginning is clearly not gameplay, the actual in-game antics still stand up well. It's a bit like Jedi Knight - one of, if not the best Star Wars games ever made.
