This is the second trailer to reveal a few of the games plot twists - the first being right here. The primary difference between the first video and this video, is that the first simply discusses a few of the games details, while this video is a 2 minute montage of actual in-game moments that should not be watched by anyone uninterested in seeing how the story possibly unfolds. I say possibly because, as our own Jonathan Zungre reported to you from GDC via Ripten TV several months ago, LucasArts has mentioned that you will have the ability to make choices within the game that deccide the path you travel. He added that while you start the game off on the Dark Side - that may not neccissarily be where you end up. So to recap, the trailer looks really nice, but you definity should not watch it unless you really like spoilers. news Jul 9, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/star-wars-the-force-unleashed/screenshots/g-20060808163155932027 screenshot Jul 7, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/star-wars-the-force-unleashed/screenshots/g-20060808163155932027 screenshot Jul 7, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/star-wars-the-force-unleashed/screenshots/g-20060808163155932027 screenshot Jul 7, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/f/next-gens-30-most-anticipated-games-of-e3/a-20080707131946439014/g-20060808163155932027 Presenting the games of the show that are most likely to be the biggest commercial and critical hits feature Jul 7, 2008 http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/News-162192.aspx An ex member of the crack Jedi programming troupe has revealved that member of the team were released from their contracts before the title had wrapped up.
