Star Wars: The Force Unleased Demo to be Released on Thursday


We'll finally be able to see if floating in the air and shooting lightning bolts is indeed a part of The Apprentice's repertoire.

I don't suppose we'll see any fork-wielding Lizardmen in the game, though.

On August 21st, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 owners will be able to unleash the Force in the comfort of their own homes by downloading the demo of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed from Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. The demo gives players a taste of one of the early levels in the game: the TIE Fighter Construction Facility, under siege by a Jedi General named Rahm Kota. The Secret Apprentice has been sent by Darth Vader to hunt down and destroy the General, but is also told that, in order to remain a secret, he is to leave no witnesses.

Also included in the demo is a tutorial intended to teach players how to use their Force Grip power.

From the trailer, I see that Apprentice has his B throw in the game. He also has the downward thrust from one of his levitation strings, and of course saber throwing is there as well.

Now that the demo is out and doing quite well, it totally seems unnecessary that they included the Apprentice in SCIV...

If they let you blow up Lizardmen in The Force Unleashed, I would totally buy it, though.
