    Opening Blurb:

    A long time ago in a galaxy far far away…

    STAR WARS

    THE FORCE UNLEASHED

    The galaxy is on the brink of darkness. The evil GALACTIC EMPIRE has overthrown the Old Republic and now holds countless worlds in the grip of fear.

    The Jedi Knights have been all but destroyed. Only a handful have escaped Imperial forces, disappearing into hiding across the galaxy.

    The remaining few are being hunted by the Sith Lord DARTH VADER who, unbeknownst to the Emperor, has been training an Apprentice of his own…

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed has been talked about quite a lot since it was announced for the App Store. Many people have been eagerly awaiting the release to see how their beloved franchise would turn out on the device whether it would be a great game with awesome controls, great sound and an interesting story or if it would just be a port of an old game made for some crappy old phone with a keypad. Well, the game was released today, and while I am not the biggest fan of Star Wars (I used to watch it when I was a kid) I have to tell you, THIS GAME ROCKS!

    It's a really good game. I got it today. The graphics are better than the DS Version. It has a good gameplay. Btw, it is allowed to post the game FOR FREE in the "Jailbroken iPod touch Game Releases"?? If it is, is that the correct section?? If not, where is it??

    Thanks

    this review isn't in-depth AT ALL.
    Is it fully 3D? can you move the camera around?
    ... and so on.

    Ok, thats fine :)
    No, not really. You have to draw some certain patterns, or learn them by heart. It is like a "beat 'em up", AKA survival, yo have to go through stages and defeat enemies. In fact, its a really good app.

    The only reason it has better graphics than the DS version is because it isn't full 3d.

    no it is 3d models with 2d backdrops. you don't really notice that it is 2d though..

    No, it looks really nice, I already played it for a good ten minutes, its a pretty good game, and when a ship goes into the distance it acutally looks 3D so no matter, its a great game.
