The Force Unleashed 2, Now With 35% More… Uh… Leash
Despite Star Wars: The Force Unleashed being half a terrible game (i.e., the platforming aspects), I’m eagerly awaiting the sequel (because of the other half, the half where you kill the shit out of hundreds of Stormtroopers using the Force). This is new cinematic trailer for the game from E3; it’s oddly not as badass as the first trailer (which isn’t to say it doesn’t have its moments) but also weirdly, it features Starkiller as a not-insanely-evil looking guy, which the first one did. Obviously, there’s more than one Starkiller running around — will there be good and evil missions? Is there something else going on? I am pathetically eager to find out.
