Topic: Force Unleashed 2 warning...

[Little Jimmy]

I'm going to tell you all this, spoiler free, and I hope you listen, and it at least makes you sway before you purchase..

Okay, yes I have it.. No it isn't out to the public yet.. I am about 2/3rds of the way through the game.. The problem??

I have around 2.5 hours of playtime on it. No joke the game is around 4 to 4.5 hours long. Unacceptable.

I won't spoil the plot, but there's not a lot to spoil. But I will say this, as far as I can see, you are a clone. Your big issue is finding the girl who was your pilot in the first game.. You start on Geonosis, you go to Kato Demoian(which is where the big battle in Attack of the Clones took place when Anakin and Padme tried to rescue Obi Wan).. You are on Dagobah for about 30 seconds for a quick chat with Yoda... You don't fight or do anything there... Now I'm on a Rebel Ship... The Rebel ship is headed for Darth Vader..

I thought something was up when there was a conversation about how "you know Darth Vader is setting a trap for you, right?".. I thought to myself, "wait a minute, I've only been playing for a couple of hours, why the fuck does this look like the final epic battle??".. So I couldn't resist and looked up info from other people who have an advance copy of the game ;-p

Turns out I *AM* headed for the final battle. The game is confirmed about 4.5 hours long. What is there is good, but there's no fucking way this should be a full fledged release... This is DLC at best.. It's truly sad. Don't bother, seriously, when the game comes out, wait a few days, and watch a youtube of the cutscenes. I would be REALLY pissed if I paid $60 for this.. Not because the game is bad, but because it's a $60 game that's barely longer than a Star Wars movie.

Gamefly that shit!

Sounds like a huge let down. I can't believe they actually released something that bad (remembers the last 3 SW movies)... wait a minute, yes I can.

That was my main beef about the first one, that it felt waaaaay too short. I was hoping they'd do something about it this time around, but I guess not. Pass.

Just put an "ht" at the beginning of the link.. Then scroll down a little bit and just watch the game.

I edited it this way because my original link went to a video you couldn't view, so I want you to link directly to the site.

Ugh, that's horrible....I guess I'm skipping TFU2 or waiting until it's $20.

I betcha they'll do an Ultimate Sith Edition for it because of people with legit complaints about the length.

I like the demo.  This wasn't going to be anything other than a cheapo purchase if anything for me anyway so thanks for the warning.

[Freakshow]

Yeah, sounds like I'll be waiting till this is like $20 used at the most.

Way too many other releases right now to wade through.  With the wedding, I'll be lucky to get through Dead Rising 2 more than a few times.

Hell, I don't even have RDR yet.  I feel like a bad gamer.   

[FreebirdSTF]

I don't have RDR either.  I need to get that on the cheap some day as well.

[FATSEXY]

I let someone "borrow" my RDR and I get the feeling that he got that shit on the free.

You start on Geonosis, you go to Kato Demoian(which is where the big battle in Attack of the Clones took place when Anakin and Padme tried to rescue Obi Wan)..

Just a little geek-out correction

You start on Kamino, that's the cloning planet. Geonosis is where the big battle from Ep II happened. The planet you go to after leaving Kamino is Kato Neimoidia. It wasn't in any movies but it is assumedly the home of the Neimoidians (the Frankenstein looking Trade Federation guys).

I haven't played this game but the cinematics are all of like 20 minutes. Even the first one had a good hour of cutscenes. The rendering is better, but that's about it.

It clearly looks like it's just a setup for a third game though.
