I am not much of a Star Wars fan. I mean I think the films are good and very watchable. But I am not going to go out of my way and wear a stormtrooper costume to work. So basically I think the films are good but nothing to get heavily obsessed over.

When I first heard about the force unleashed I couldn’t help but be a little skeptical. I mean I am not a huge Star Wars fan and having a 3rd person hack and slash game in the Star Wars universe felt a little generic.
So I went and tried the demo for a laugh to see if it was any good. I was hooked, I never thought I would see the day where i would enjoy a Star Wars game as much as this one. Sure Knights Of The Old Republic is a gaming classic but to be honest I never got fully into that title *hides* But with The Force Unleashed you actually felt like a Jedi master, throwing people around at will with the force and just causing mayhem. I think I liked it because you were in fact a superhero. If your still mulling over the idea of the first game check out my review, it may sway you.
So where am I going with all of this? Another review? A DLC announcement perhaps? Well I am glad to say it is non of the above and the sequel to The Force Unleashed has been announced. It was announced last month at the Spike TV Video Game Awards that the sequel will be gracing out consoles by the back end of 2010. Yes I know, the Spike TV awards were back last month but this is still news to me.
So what will the next outing for Starkiller entail? Well as you can probably gather not much has been announced at all but it seems the story carries on from the good ending from the last game. I assume this because in the teaser trailer for the second outing. Our old buddy Starkiller is wielding two (yes two how cool is that, better be a game feature) blue light sabers. This makes a hell of a lot of sence because the Ultimate Sith Edition of the first game was released not so long ago, and showed the story of Starkiller as he became one with the dark side. So it will be very interesting to see how Starkiller develops as one of the good Jedi and also it will be very interesting to see how they pick up from where the last game left off, not wanting to spoil what happened for the people who haven’t played The Force Unleashed but wouldn’t this be a little…..impossible?
So I for one will be eagerly awaiting the next installment in the chapter of Starkiller’s story, I wander how it work within the original Star Wars trilogy time line. Sadly we are just going to have to wait till some more information arises, till then, sit back and relax as you watch this Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II teaser trailer.

3rd person action games have a tendency to do these type of things. Release the original game for people to enjoy and fall in love with, then a while later release a special more updated edition.
Devil may cry 3 did it with the special edition having a new character for you to use with alternative costumes, a new unlockable costume for Dante, and some enemy tweaks.
Ninja Gaiden Black introduced new weapons, more cut-scenes, new enemies, new costumes and a few new cut-scenes. But then Ninja gaiden sigma was released for ps3 that added more to ninja gaiden black such as Dragon’s Claw & Tiger’s Fang dual katanas and some changes to the environments in game.
Around sepetember last year Star Wars the force unleashd was released. I did a review of the game and was pleasantly surprised by the game. But now the game is following the same suit as DMC and ninja gaiden and is releasing The ultimate sith edition.
This ultimate sith edition includes: All the downloadable content that’s out for the original game. which is: new character skins and new mission as the apprentice. But the welcome new addition to this pack is The hoth mission pack. This mission pack takes you through the story of the apprentice if he did over throw Vader and was the Emperor’s new right hand man. This will give you missions such as killing obi wan and fighting Luke skywalker.
This special edition looks immense and I cannot wait!
Ultimate Sith Edition Box Hasn't Been Shown Yet, So Here Is The Original.
Garv!
