I have heard good things about this game, but I personally didn’t enjoy it. In my previous edit of this review, I wanted a remake, but now I think a remaster would be more appropriate. Will they ever do it? Probably not, but another XBOX 360 ports highly benefited from a remastered PC port that added lots of visual improvements and quality-of-life updates. Granted, The Force Unleashed had a far earlier PC release in 2009, while future years marked more polished ports, but that’s why I am advocating for an upgrade, since The Force Unleashed could use one The game is hard-capped at 30 FPS. I’m not saying that’s awful, but I would like to see a potential modern release leap for 60, since newer hardware would greatly benefit a game like this. There is also no support for Playstation or Nintendo controllers. I know that most games default to an XBOX layout, but I am not an XBOX gamer, nor do I own a controller. I understand I am in the minority on this, but It makes the QTEs a little harder. This is more of a personal thing, and it makes sense for a 2009 release. I also didn’t like the camera. It swung wildly and occasionally clipped into walls, which made the combat disorienting. I already didn’t love the combat. It kind of felt like Hyrule Warriors, but similar to those games, and felt too button-mashy. The combos lacked depth to me and just didn’t have the impact that other action games do. I’m not saying the visuals are “bad” because they looked very impressive back then. Bayonetta looks better to me because it’s more stylized, almost like blending realistic visuals with exaggerated, anime-like proportions and animation. But modern displays make the flaws more noticeable. I did like a couple things. For starters, playing as Darth Vader walking through the battle of Kashyyyk was really interesting and a fun way to start the game. I liked how it conveyed the atmosphere of the original trilogy, and I just liked the feeling of a 2000s LucasArts game. Ultimately, I didn’t hate it. I still think that there is plenty of value in this game, but this old port would be better if it got a polished PC version in the future. The positives are there, but my overall experience was a 6/10

It's a good game, if a bit broken, 7/10. I never played this as a kid, so there's no nostalgia to be had. It's clear that the Steam port isn't great. A 60 fps patch (because I'm not doing 30, sorry) and a sound fix mod are needed, and some cutscenes just didn't play for me (most did, though). The bug (that, from my understanding, was in the PC game since the beginning) that causes things you pick up with the force to start floating upwards is not really a huge issue but is made worse with the 60 fps patch, which needs to be uninstalled for the Jedi Temple DLC to be able to complete it. Other than that, it's a good story with fun combat. The Tatooine and Hoth DLCs were great fun, and they make me wish for some more from that storyline. :P

Crazy force fun. Recommended

Pros: Force slamming and force electrocuting everything in sight: rebels, imperials, droids, aliens, etc. Has some great levels too (you go inside a Sarlacc and inside the Death Star's laser tube). Cons: Garbage port. You need to download a patch to play in 60 FPS, and for a game this old it uses up a lot of system resources.
