@KZbindoesntlikeme That makes the most sense. They were probably almost done with the ps2 and Wii version and then decided to produce for the newer consoles. The idea was probably to maximize profits but the fact that they mostly rebuilt the game with completely different levels is insane

Rule of thumb, if something happens in the Disney canon, it likely happened in the old canon. So if you wanna see a different depiction of how Boba survived the sarlaac pit, read an old canon book or comic. This also applies to Palpatine somehow returning.

[@GavinLIVE715]

Possibly Hot Take: When I played Force Unleashed, I liked it better on the Wii. It was actually a lot of fun and the controls were pretty good on remote and nunchuck. When I tried it one Xbox or whatever I tried it on later, it just didn’t feel the same. It looked better, but the controls a gameplay took it on the Wii.

[@TheSpongyMallard]

I forgot that they ported the Wii version to the Switch.

[@kamkam3905]

Played the PS2 version (same levels as the Wii). Cutscenes were cooler there (Vader tears down a whole TREE HOUSE with the force) and Starkiller has a Force Choke from the start

[@TheSpongyMallard]

@@kamkam3905 I think I remember the final boss being better as well.

[@Jaded_Jinx]

Most Star Wars games these days really go for the more "grounded" (within the context of the Star Wars universe) feel, too afraid to make you actually feel powerful like the Force Unleashed games did I wish they'd go back to that type of games again by giving you such powerful Force powers. like, I just discovered the other day in Legends, they legit have a goddamn Force ability that lets you harness power from the planet and fire it like a beam, Kamehameha style. I want something like that

[@icarusgaming6269]

Left trigger + face buttons to access your special force moves. Square for lightsaber throw, circle for repulse. If you want to make a shishkebab you have to *keep* right trigger held down the whole time or you'll drop the target. You can also combine push with dash by pressing circle right after left bumper for a super dodge that blasts everything in your way. Along with repulse, this is one of your main panic moves anytime you start to get overwhelmed Force powers can also be used on environmental objects. Lightning turns them into bombs, push can help with throws at weird angles. If the object is *already* a bomb lightning will just blow it up. What's more important than controls for creating fun anime-escque combos is the environmental interactions. Experiment with everything you even suspect might work. Experiment even if you think it *won't* work

[@glibchubik4090]

Man I don't remember half of this while playing as a kid, need to replay the game fr

[@danikin7804]

Zanny, watching you play the sarlacc level really unlocked a memory in my head I forgot I had. I remember playing that level and having so much fun as a little kid just messing with the npc's watching them fly around cause of the wind, and walking through those tunnels with all the tentacles reaching out for you, and me just slicing as many as them down as I could just for the fun of it; it took so little to entertain me as a child back then. Very good times. Thanks for reminding me of this Zanny!

The Wii one you played is a ported version of the Ps2 TFU which is extremely different compared to the Ps3 and 360 version. Mission layouts, minor details, and some boss fights are completely different compared to the 360 and Ps3 verions on the game. The most notable thing the modern versions did other than graphical improvements was the dlc they made for it which you should definitely check out! Ultimately the Ps2, Wii, and Psp versions of the base game are better than their next gen remake counterpart on the Ps3 and 360.

[@TheSpongyMallard]

I was sad that Maelstrom wasn't in the next gen versions. Pulling down the star destroyer being a cutscene in them was also more better because it was honestly super annoying to play.

[@Angru_Zyruvyan]

Zanny: Casually mentions God of War in a Force Unleashed video Me: Internally debating if I should mention that the story of God of War (2018) was based on a script for the unproduced live-action Star Wars: Underworld series that tied into/pitched the idea of The Force Unleashed

Even though it's not as flashy or fancy, or even maybe as fun as the 360/PS3 version, the PS2 version is the superior experience, I think. It's basically a director's cut of TFA, with more levels, more story beats, more bosses (like the two phantom Sith Lords in the Jedi Temple), and a very competent and consistent graphical style for a PS2 game. I mean, there's a whole ass Bespin level where you're fighting Mandalorians and a Jedi-killing Gungan bounty bunter. Hardly a competition.
