STAR WARS™ - The Force Unleashed™ Ultimate Sith Edition

Gameplay is quite janky, repetitive and lacks finesse, the writing and dialogue are all over the place, the levels leave a lot to desire, it has technical issues and it crashes at times. It holds up just about as well as you would think all these years later; barely, that is. Still, it's quite fun to play. It has some things going for it. It's been almost 20 years since I first played it on the X360 and I hadn't played the DLC missions before, so I felt it was worth a revisit. The story is quite entertaining as a whole, the physics and force powers are still enjoyable to play around with, and it looks and flows quite decent for a game of that era; especially when you apply an easy 40 fps patch, which also seemed to make the game more stable funnily enough. The DLC missions are short and laughable in many ways, but also fairly entertaining at times. Edgy masked bad boy Starkiller does look awesome in them, that's for sure. All in all, still a pretty good Star Wars experience if you want to play around with the force and see some alternate storylines. Worked very well on my docked Steam Deck with a controller as well.

I like being evil in this game

Star Killer is Lore that 's all Ill say

One of my favorites to play! Met Sam Witwer (Starkiller) this weekend, and got a picture with him!

Blast from the past Great Game!

Although it's probably best single-player Star Wars games ever made, the ported PC experience is a little flawed. For starters, there aren't achievements, so there's no point in being a completionist or collecting the Holocrons. That one detail diminishes a lot of replay value the console versions offered. It's also the OG version and hasn't been remastered, so it's locked at 30 fps. And also like a lot of old games, it's prone to crashes and might require some work to get your controller to cooperate on Steam, depending on the model you're using. I also do not recommend playing this game with a keyboard. Although yes, it is playable with a keyboard, accuracy requires a lot more luck and just doesn't feel right for this game. You really need 2 joysticks to feel the Force Unleashed as it was meant to be played. Besides that, it's still worth a play for all Star Wars fans and it serves as an interesting mini-prequel to Episode IV, even though comes very, very close to breaking canon. Some might say it does, but whatever. It's still a fun game despite the drawbacks of being a bare bones port.
