The DLC is a great value on TFU2, and helps to extend this excellent Star Wars adventure, but the game is still very short. I beat it in a day, although to be fair I did play almost all day. The story is above average, although this is really more like a large expansion of the first game, that's fine by me because the first game is epic as well.
   
   In general, I just wish the game was longer.… Expand

   I thought this game was fun. The problem with it is that it is way too short. definitely shorter than the first one. While the story itselfI thought this game was fun. The problem with it is that it is way too short. definitely shorter than the first one. While the story itself had some cool moments,overall it was lacking and rushed. It could of been good if they would of made the game longer. The game play is fun just like the last one, although the platforming is rather irritating. I like the dual light sabers. Doesn't present much of a challenge though due to the fact that Star Killer is just as strong as he was at the end of the last game. It makes sense that he would be that strong. It was fun crushing anyone that tried to challenge me. Overall it was a good game that has its flaws. I would recommend renting this one because it is just far too short.… Expand

The graphics and voice acting are great, yet the story is very weak and can be completed in about 6-7 hours, revolving around Starkiller trying to find out who he is. Also there are only three settings in the whole game: Kamino (which you go to twice), Cato Neimoidia, Dagobah (which is LITERALLY 2 minutes long!) and a ship. That's it. Personally the worst bit in the whole game for me was the final boss fight. It's too easy, repetitive and takes far too long. Yet there are a few improvements (FEW being the operative word) - you can mind trick your enemies into fighting each other or killing themselves and combat feels more smooth instead of a hack-and-slash feel. Overall, this is a good/average game that sucks compared to FU1.… Expand

As other members have said, the length of theWhile I absolutely loved the original, the second installment fails to improve in so many ways. As other members have said, the length of the game is roughly half the game time of the original, and with only 4 locations you play in (with 2 being similar for the most part - indoors, metallic and dark, and one with no action and only 5 minutes of walking) the beautiful locations you saw in The Force Unleashed are gone. Cato Neimodia is, yes, a very interesting location that isn't seen in the films, but it doesn't excuse the lack of nice, natural, alien environments.
   
   The way the game ends in both the light and dark ending seems to scream 'Wait for DLC to flesh out the lacklustre campaign'. The storyline is nowhere near as good as the original either, with information you gathered from trailers ages ago being pretty much all there is to it - Starkiller may be a clone, and he is finding out who he is. However, the graphics, sound, cinematics and voice acting are all absolutely phenomenal. Sam Witwer's performance blows his already great performance in the original right out of the water. Every actor puts in an even better performance too - it is just a shame we don't hear that much of Nathalie Cox (Juno). The graphics are even more impressive than in the original, however, as stated before, the lack of variety detracts from this a little, but the action is notably crisp, and runs at a very stable framerate too.
   
   Overall, I would suggest if you absolutely loved the original, this is worth buying, but simply be aware it may be better to wait for the obvious DLC, a price drop, or a 'Ultimate' version.… Expand
