LucasArts Announces Star Wars: The Force Unleashed


Today, LucasArts announced their next upcoming Star Wars game, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Not sure exactly what the genre is, but it'll be on the next-gen consoles this coming November. My guess is a third person action.

Story wise, its set between trilogies and you take on the role of Darth Vader's secret apprentice, helping him to hunt down rebel Jedi. Not only will you have the chance to alter Star Wars continuity, but the game is being developed with the consultation of the Master Idea Ruiner himself, George Lucas.

What looks fuckin' assume is the new tech this game brings to the table. Go here to watch some tech demo videos of their AI and destructible objects.

Hell, you get to watch R2 get thrown at a bunch of ply wood, and that alone is worth the price of admission.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is a game to watch.
