Editorial Review: Product Description: LucasArts' game The Force Unleashed, is poised to be the Star Wars event of the year. The game-play promises to be stunning, but we think it's the story that will blow you away. Revealed here are the origins of Darth Vader's secret apprentice, the deadly missions on which he was sent to track down and destroy Jedi, and the awesome decision he is forced to make that will, literally, change the way you look at the Star Wars saga! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - i expected more from a special event like unleashedstar wars: the force unleashed is another attempt at a multi-media event by lucas arts like their mediocre attempt with shadows of the empire in the 90s. don't get me wrong, the effort they put into the event was mediocre, i actually enjoyed shadows; but this isn't a shadows review... this time around we've got a video game/book/graphic novel combo, with one lego spaceship and one action figure (that i know of) thrown in, almost as an insulting after-thought. but let me ... Read More Rating:  - what the hell?Recent ideas from LucasArts have been weak to say the least (The Clone Wars cartoon was pathetic). The Force Unleashed is another attempt to cash in on the Star Wars franchise with a story that is so bad that I cannot believe G. Lucas approved it. As if they did not have enough high-quality material with the already well developed Expanded Universe, someone decided to introduce a new character to the saga (as the apprentice of Darth Vader) and to revisit the origin of the Rebellion. Unfortunately ... Read More Rating: - Only a piece of the puzzleI was disappointed with this book. I was really interested in this period of time in the SW Chronology. But I guess you have to have the game to understand the whole story. There's too much action missing. Entire battles are boiled down to a one page mural drawing. I was really expecting something along the lines of the 'Legacy' series, which I've devoured multiple times. I've read Jar-Jar stories that had me more riveted. I've never played the game but I hope it has satisfied the inner Star Wars Geek ... Read More Rating:  - A different view from the Book versionHaving read BOTH the book and graphic novel I can say that the story line in the graphic novel is told from a different point of view and in a totally different way then from the book version I would recommend reading the book version first then the graphic novel that way you can see what the graphic novel skipped over or shows a small part of it. (I would have liked to see the robotic versions of the jedi council that starkiller fights while fighting another jedi master in the book version) It does show ... Read More Rating:  - A Great Story... The Game is Based OnAs Good as the game The Force Unleashed is, (I have the X-Box 360 Version) The Story Comes First. Now If you Play the game through it will reveal the story to you. If However You don't have the game, or just want to read the story I suggest this Graphic Novel. As well as the Del Rey Novel which goes into much deeper detail. The Graphic Novel is a Tremendous Story with Top notch Art. The only Conplaint is After Reading it, Some of the Key elements of the story just couldn't be fit into the Book. Read More Browse for similar items by category:
