It puts the leashed in unleashed
When I bought this game I thought it was going to be exciting, boy was I wrong. I will admit it's addictive, but only to see how much more pathetic it can get. All the costumes are so bland and you don't notice the lightsaber color all that much. The whole point in The Force Unleashed is to use over the top force powers, but in this game they're such a waste of time. I will admit the visuals of the force powers are okay but they pretty much all do the same effect and damage, it's so much easier to do the whole game by using the lightsaber. The combo system is alright but since the force powers suck there is no point in using it. You won't get much enjoyment out of this game because all the contents on this game are horrible and because its such a easy game, you can beat the game without upgrading at all.
