PC gamers will be further annoyed once getting to the main menu, which cannot be navigated using the mouse. In fact, none of the menus in the Ultimate Sith Edition can be navigated using the mouse. Instead, players must rely on the archaic use of arrow keys, the backspace, bracket, and enter keys to do things like upgrade force powers.
Once you're past the menus and setup, the Ultimate Sith Edition attempts to deliver the same experience the original did. With literally nothing changed, players can expect a solid story with solid characters, but that is simply the main plot campaign, as the Ultimate Sith Edition also includes three extra missions, two of which are featured as DLC for the console version and one that is exclusive.
All three missions do a decent job of establishing the setting and pace, but what makes them unique is the fact that they provide fun teasers based on "what if" scenarios. For example, the Hoth mission allows players to infiltrate the Rebel's Hoth base, locate Luke Skywalker, and defeat him. What happens at the end of that mission, however, deviates from the original canon and allows the player's imagination to take control. Each mission will last anywhere from one to two hours depending on your familiarity with the controls, so there isn't a lot of detail to be found in them, but that doesn't mean they aren't fun distractions from the main storyline or that they aren't worth your attention.
While the story and extra missions, along with the music, visuals, and sound effects, provide exactly what you'd expect from a praised Star Wars game, it is difficult to get past the many, many technical issues that seem all too plentiful in this PC version.
Better Left Leashed by Derek Hidey. PS5 Backward Compatibility. Has Facebook Screwed the Pooch with Oculus? The Life and Death of Motion Controls. Should you run into visual issues, there is no way to adjust graphics settings to improve the game's performance.
The Force Unleashed allows you to only adjust the display resolution and brightness levels, so forget tweaking your lighting and anisotropic filter settings. Even if you can run the game without trouble, you'll lament that the widescreen cinematics are stretched on a monitor with a aspect ratio.
It's a shame that these issues will overshadow some absolutely excellent art design for so many players. Environments like the robot graveyards on Raxus Prime look fantastic, and swirled, stylized textures add fantasy flair to the overall look. The visuals won't blow you away when compared to other PC games, but they have plenty of dramatic appeal. While at the Jedi temple, be sure to pray for a smooth frame rate. Just don't expect your prayer to be answered.
This edition of The Force Unleashed includes three stand-alone missions, two of which were released as downloadable content for the original console version. The Jedi Temple mission is excellent, pitting you against large groups of foes that will have you on the move and exploiting every Force power to its fullest. It drops you right into the action from the outset and maintains a high level of excitement, particularly during a thrilling battle against a crowd of droids.
A few puzzle sequences help break up the tempo to keep the mission fresh, and lots of destructible objects make the action seem especially explosive. The visuals are lovely--in keeping with the best levels from the main campaign--and some ethereal music plucked from the Star Wars library makes one sequence feel, appropriately enough, otherworldly. The second of these missions takes place on Tatooine and features familiar characters, as well as more great art design.
There are also a couple of fun boss fights and an intriguing alternate-history story. For more information, check out our review of the Tatooine Mission Pack. Compared to the other stand-alone journeys, this mission on Hoth is a disappointment--though not from a story perspective, thanks to a fascinating ending that will give Star Wars fans an opportunity to munch on all sorts of non-canon fodder.

It runs just fine and is a great inovation in gaming with amazing graphics, great voice acting, and the smartest AI anyone has yet seen. The game is realy verry fun with a lot of replayability and crazy force powers.
But if you like Star Wars, good acting, and inovation. Then this is your game. May the force be with you and all that Jazz.

The story is compelling, but the path the protagonist takes to become a hero doesn't really fit film lore.
Sometimes it's frustrating, and definitely monotonous towards the end, but it's great overall. Yes, there are some flaws.
One that stands out, taking down the Death Star "boss. But Yes, there are some flaws. But beyond that, this is a damn good game. Its true, it pisses all over Star Wars lore. I dont recall Luke ever battling Vaders apprentice in Hoth, but gamewise, its good.
SImple as that. The powers are very cool. Its incredibly satisfying to impale a force held trooper with your black lightsaber. The little additions, such as costume and the different gems and colours for lightsabers add to it. If your a fan of Star Wars, but not a fanatic, you'll truly enjoy this game.
This game is very disappointing. I got about two hours in before I became completely fed up. What stands out the most is the terrible control This game is very disappointing. What stands out the most is the terrible control scheme and I played the game on xbox.
Targeting is awkward, I found that whenever I tried to use a force power on an enemy the game would most of the time target the barrel next to the enemy instead. Enemies regularly knock me down through seemingly normal attacks, and while the character is on his way back up he often gets knocked down again.
None of the talents you can unlock are very exciting either. Overall, the mechanics of this game are boring and repetitive.
I didn't get far enough to judge the story. Graphics are nice, and if you like star wars you may like this game. However, make sure you get it at a discounted rate, this game isn't worth full price at all. Whoever ported the controls for this game from console to PC should be ashamed. It's fine until boss fights While its great to see the closest thing to another Jedi-Knight game.
The Force Unleashed misses the mark in production and cross-platform While its great to see the closest thing to another Jedi-Knight game. The Force Unleashed misses the mark in production and cross-platform porting values. Simple things like missing textures, lack of a mouse GUI interface. They also forget to tell you what changes pages until later. You'll often charge into a group of storm-troopers only to target a box to their left.
It gets even worse when you attempt to force-choke a target, and instead force choke a box. Further complications occur when you try to use the enviroment to hit things. Launching a projectile at enemies is near impossible with wonky force-choke controls. Character movement is also sub-par especially for a game that has mild-platforming.
There is no ledge-grabbing here, and your character will slide on any surface angled greater than 30 degrees. This generally leads to many quick-deaths as your character's feet miss the platform by a half-foot, and he slides off into the abyss.
