Like most
Star Wars fan that happens to own an
iPhone or an
iPod touch (my case), I was looking forward to September 16th release of
The Force Unleashed. However, after watching
a video showing the gameplay ... I'm
bitterly disappointed. I was hoping for something similar to
Jedi Knight 2 where I could play as
Darth Vader's secret apprentice (real name
Galen Marek) ... instead it looks like the game will be
cinematic and mainly
finger gestures based. What's the point of carrying a cool looking
light saber around if it's only used to return laser blast? ... Okay so yeah,
FPS friendly controls on a device such as this is tricky, but not impossible ...
While I am on this subject, I should mention that I been reading
Timothy Zahn's first sequel to
Episode VI:
Heir to the Empire. So far it is
okay ... nothing
exceptional really, but it's not too bad either. It is the first time that I'm reading a
Star Wars expanded universe book. Since I had some downtime between
Dune's universe books I thought I gave that a try.
