Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - on Wii

[Nabobalis]

LucasArts has revealed that Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will is coming to Wii next spring and it'll allow you to wield the Wii Remote as a Lightsaber. Now that's what we're talking about.

You can wield the Wii Remote as a lightsaber while using the Nunchuk controller to torment others with Force powers.

The game's story is set during the era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Episode IV A New Hope.

The Wii version, in development by Krome Studios, will also feature an exclusive duel mode in which players can compete head-to-head with their friends. Whether this si online remains to be seen, but we doubt it.

"Wii is a great platform for The Force Unleashed, because the console's motion-oriented controllers really bring the game to life," said Jim Ward, President of LucasArts. "We've worked hard to make the Wii version of the game unique in order to truly let you unleash the Force."

Now the part the matters
.

the title is expected to have motion-based lightsaber combat, and utilizes both the Wii remote and nunchuck to control the action.

Awesomest news yet. Now we just have to wait to hear about online duels!!!

 

[lePobz]

I can hear it now. Zwooosh. ZWOOOOSH. *CRACKLE*

*waves hands around frantically*

 

[Zeus]

I'd like to see how motion based lightsaber combat comes out, as I've been a pretty big Jedi Academy/Outcast player over the years.

 

[Dog--]

HELL YES.

This is what I want to see on Wii.

Time to blow the dust off that bitch!

 

[staticprimer]

Man I'm glad I bought a Wii!

 

[Ennui]

WIN.

I wonder how they'll deal with instances when the two lightsabers are locked together...

 

[WhiteZero]

Lets hope the "motion based lightsaber combat" doesnt flop like Red Steel...

 

[Somefool]

Watch how many people madly swing their wiimote and wreck their own house.

 

[JNightshade]

holy f*ck.

 

[Dekstar]

If this is done right, it'll be one of the greatest games on the Wii.

 

[-Psy-]

About time!

 

[Lt. Drebin]

Sweet.

Dual mode FTW!! This needs to be online!!! Don't screw this up!!!!

 

[Noobulon]

It would be sad if they removed the awesome DMM physics and procudural animation for the Wii version. Hopefully they can keep all that stuff in, while adding the nifty motion controls, but I doubt it.

Still... Wii Lightsaber ftw!

 

[Asknoone]

Here, Lucas, have more of my money.

It's either going to be awesome or utter shite.

<3 star wars.

It is coming to PC? Thats the first I heard of that.

It's either going to be awesome or utter shite.

That is the problem. The port is not being made by the same people that are creating the Xbox 360 /PS3 version, I believe. So this has more of a chance of being a really poor game.

not the same version of force unleashed, i think i read it at kotaku...

 

[Cormeh]

To be honest, the technology that the devs have displayed for the 360 version interests me more than an entire Wii version. And I <3 my Wii.

I suppose, I did enjoy Tiger 07, I may be taken in with this.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Cool.

So, where do I buy a Wiimote attachment for my penis?

It's either going to be awesome or utter shite.

Yeah, too bad it's not the same lucasarts I knew with their older games. I'd be more hopeful.
