Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 Impressions
After enjoying the demo for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 I was very disappointed with the full game. First off, it was short, like 6 hours short. There were only 5 missions. A couple of them are fairly lengthy but still 5 missions is not much. SW:TFU2 could easily be a $20 expansion to the original game based on the size. Yes, there are new enemies and you dual wield light sabers this time, but nothing so outstandingly better that it deserves its own game. I found the story line frustrating because I had no choice in the decisions that my character made until the very end. He consistently did things that in an RPG I would not have done. But, since this just an action adventure title I was stuck just playing through the story. There are still too many jumping and quick time events for my tastes. Just let me attack the large boss enemies and don’t make it be a stupid quick time even to kill them. When you are just fighting storm troopers the game is fun. The force powers and the combos that use end with using the force are really nice. Unfortunately, a lot of the times you get a couple storm troopers and then a mini-boss instead of large groups of fun enemies. If you enjoyed the first SW:TFU then the sequel is probably worth a rent. Just don’t get your hopes up to high.
