Force Unleashed demo on August 21

[Argi]

I see no demo in Aus. :unsure:

[The_Observer]

here in the GREAT NEW ZEALAND! it is here,

[Remysaus]

just played it and loved it. *runs to store to pre-order

[ienhz]

I'm a bit disappointed. I enjoyed the Jedi Knight (Jedi Outcast/Academy) games on the PC much more.

[what]

I experienced no freezing, pausing, etch... it worked perfectly fine for me.

Yeah, no freezing or anything here either. One thing that did confuse me though was the way it had to load the Options menu...

[Osiris]

Is this something that requires a prepaid PSN thing, or can I turn on my ps3, log onto PSN and download this for free?

[Sethos]

or can I turn on my ps3, log onto PSN and download this for free?

Yes, you can :)

[Coldgunner]

I've gotta say, the PS3 versiono for me had no stuttering or pausing whatsoever. Can anyone confirm support for 1080i or 1080p? is it native (looks like it) 720p?

[Sethos]

There is some sorta' "Uh look, you hit him with your stupid glowing stick" pause effect on both versions - Which isn't annoying, actually a nice touch.

[The_Observer]

jsut got thew the complete thing with just my force powers, (apart from the last big machine part)

[Coldgunner]

Yeah, IMO I think its still beta code and will likely be eliminated in the final version. Its a relief this game works well though, I was beginning to lose faith in LA. The thought of sequels is somewhat nice, it'd be great to see something post ROTJ built using this. Also isn't the next Indy game using this engine? if so it should be pretty neat and I wouldn't be suprised to see various media popping up for it.

[Xerxes]

Just had a quick go at at just now, has a lot of potential and could turn out to be an awesome game :) However, the constant pausing is very annoying and ruins the experience (for me anyway). If they can fix that, I think they'll have a winner on their hands :happy:

[HawkMan]

I wonder what this pausing is, since some peopel have it and some don't.

For me the gameplay was smooth all the way so I'd like to see a video or somethign of what this pausing is.

[OtRaS]

I am going to pick this up, One of my favorite games on the PC was Jedi knight outcast 2. Once you get the hang of the controls it was great fun, I just had to throw some stuff at the Ti fighters .

Does this demo require xbox live points to play/download or is it just free?

[Sethos]

Does this demo require xbox live points to play/download or is it just free?

points? no, it's free ... like every other demo :blink:

[Smashing Pumpkin]

Maybe you have to be a gold member to download it, I'm not sure.

I enjoyed the demo, but couldn't beat the ATST on my first try, didn't experience any pausing or anything either to be honest.

[kl33per]

I've now played this demo through about five to six times. I can't wait until this is released next month.

[Corris Veteran]

Thought it was great, really looking forward to it, I do love Star Wars, even if a lot of the games turn out a bit crap.

And I had no stuttering or pausing or any problems that I noticed here.

Let's clear this up:

Demo's are free!

Any member (Gold or Silver) can download and play demo's!

Goldmembers get some demo's a few days earlier!

[Draken]

Just downloaded it (not from XBL, 564 MB rar) and burned to a DVD, plays fine, no pauses (Y)

[Jhaedee]

I've never really used XboxLive before other than a free trial with halo 3 and have never used the marketplace so thanks for clearing that up (Y)

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

what's (snigger) mean? who you callin a snigger?

[Jimmy0]

Just played through the demo, I might pick up this game after it has dropped in price a little. (Y)

I wish the demo was a little longer, the gameplay was fun but it also seemed like it could get repetitive very quickly so it would have been nice to see how they changed up the encounters and level design as the game progressed. Also, the scene in the little teaser video at the end where he is crashing a Star Destroyer looks awesome :woot:
