REVIEW
Punishment for being ahead? After playing countless hours of this for a couple months, I can only conclude this is one of the worst games I've ever played.
It's not because of graphics. It's not because of controls. It's because the game stops being fun when you realize two things:
1 - Winning is almost pure luck. You have to get at least one "good" item(star, bullet, giant) during most online races to have a chance. I've been in many races where it takes much more, because I've been bombarded constantly by people with stars and bullets. And God forbid you miss a cube entirely.
2 - The really sad thing about this game is the notion that it must "punish" you for being ahead of everyone else. It's no coincidence that 9 out of 10 races in which I am in first place for a length of time, I get hit with the dreaded blue shell. Even worse than that, races are usually so close that once you're hit by something, everyone else piles into you and next thing you know you've gone from first to near last in an instant.
This game at first glance seems like a lot of fun. And for the first few weeks, it is. Then it becomes a frustrating uphill battle against luck and Nintendo's idea that no one should really be better than anyone else. If someone is, we have to knock him down to make it fair.
I worked hard to get over 7000, and I'm proud of that, but it quit being fun a long time ago. I'm tired of battling luck with skill, when luck wins out almost every time. Add a Review
The Best System I say that cuz its the most innovative and to some extent, the most fun.
You cant play multiplayer with the same way as the Wii. Making it a party favorite.
The Wii takes gaming to the next level with the infamous Wiimotes. Its amazingly fun and everyone will want to play.
I say that this is my favorite system and the best system overall. Xbox360 has the slightly better graphics, PS3 has the overall better games, Wii has the fun and different factor of playing with a whole bunch of friends.
Wii wins. Add a Review

REVIEW
If you like Rock Band then you have to buy this game. Let me start by saying the game playing is the same (as far as I can tell). So far the song selection is really good but to me the most important thing is....
All thesongs I bought in the original Rock Band I can play in this version.
I'm not a huge gamer but I have never bought extra's for a game and they have worked in the next version of the game. I'm sure there maybe some games where this exists but let me say I probably bought 30 songs for the first game and I can play them all so why not upgrade! Add a Review
Playstation 3's Blu-Ray Disc Remote is an elegant, sleekly designed controller for enjoying Blu-Ray discs on your PS3. The ergonomic design feels good in your hand and the Bluetooth connection lets you operate with no lag time. Features all the standard DVD remote functions: Chapter display/select A-B Repeat One-Touch Menu Control
REVIEW
A Must Have! I just purchased an HDTV a month ago and thought this would be a great way to watch Blu-Ray movies rather than buy a separate player. Using this remote to watch DVDs is much easier than using one of the game controlers. Setup is very simple and it's not expensive at all, definitely worth the money.

Zergwatch:The Star Wars saga will continue in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, a videogame developed by LucasArts, which casts players as Darth Vader's "Secret Apprentice" and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas, is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will assist the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi - and face decisions that could change the course of their destiny.
Join the Dark Side
You are Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice View larger.
Use The Force to disable your enemies View larger.
Artwork of the Jedi "Maris"
As its name implies, The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force by taking full advantage of newly developed technologies that will be seen and experienced for the first time: Digital Molecular Matter (DMM), by Pixelux Entertainment, and euphoria by NaturalMotion Ltd. Paired with the powerful Havok Physics™ system, these new technologies create gameplay only possible on the new generation of consoles. DMM incorporates the physical properties of anything in the environment so that everything reacts exactly like it should - wood breaks like wood, glass shatters like glass, plants on the planet Felucia bend like plants on the planet Felucia would, and more. Meanwhile, as a revolutionary behavioral-simulation engine, euphoria enables interactive characters to move, act and even think like actual human beings, adapting their behavior on the fly and resulting in a different payoff every single time.
Game Features:
During the period between Episodes III and IV, players hunt Jedi in the role of Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice.
Unleash and upgrade the Secret Apprentice's four core Force powers - Force push, grip, repulse and lightning - throughout the course of the game, and combine them for ultra-destructive, never-before-seen combos.
Examples of unleashing the Force in ways never thought possible:
The Secret Apprentice won't just Force push enemies into walls - he'll Force push enemies through walls.
The Secret Apprentice won't just Force grip foes to throw them aside - he'll Force grip them in midair, zap them with lightning, then drop them to the ground to explode like a bomb.
In addition to new adversaries created just for the game, such as fugitive Jedi and Force-sensitive Felucians, players will also confront and associate with familiar faces from the Star Wars films, including Darth Vader.
Visit locations such as Episode III's Wookiee homeworld Kashyyyk and the floral Felucia, the junk planet Raxus Prime, plus an Imperial TIE fighter construction facility.
The Force Unleashed is LucasArts' first internally developed title for next-generation consoles, and it represents the first in-game collaboration of talents and technology between LucasArts and Industrial Light & Magic, two companies now finally under one roof at the new Letterman Digital Arts Center in San Francisco's Presidio district.
The Force Unleashed debuts Digital Molecular Matter from Pixelux and euphoria behavioral simulation from NaturalMotion Ltd.
LucasArts is preparing an unprecedented promotional effort around the launch of The Force Unleashed, encompassing a full line of toys and game-based action figures from Hasbro, as well as a full publishing program from Dark Horse, Del Rey and Palace Press.
Meet the Cast The Star Wars Saga will continue in 2008 with LucasArts' biggest-ever video game event. Set during the "dark times" between Episodes III and IV, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed portrays the previously untold story of Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice -- and now you can put a face to that mysterious character as well as the major supporting cast members as LucasArts unveils the actors set to star in The Force Unleashed.
The New Technology of The Force Unleashed With The Force Unleashed, LucasArts not only introduces a new chapter in the Star Wars saga, but also two completely new and innovative technologies -- Digital Molecular Matter by Pixelux Entertainment and euphoria by NaturalMotion Ltd. These groundbreaking technologies combine with Havoc physics to create true next-gen gameplay and the Force like it's never been seen or experienced before.
REVIEW
stars wars is god I love the star wars series. Starting with the ones from super nes. Star wars unleashed is pretty cool because you star out as darth vader. Then you meet a child and then he grows up and train him to be like you. Not only that but turn him like darth vader. The action is great and the force ability is cool because you can use things to throw and even trow people against things. The light saber is always great to have. The story line is outstanding. please pick this great title up. Add a Review
