When they announced that a new Star Wars title would be shown, the prime suspect was automatically a sequel to The Force Unleashed – mainly because the game sold a total of 5.7 million copies. That said, surly enough, the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed sequel was revealed during the “most important moment for gaming”, the Spike 2009 Video Game Awards.

According to the games official website, the game is expected to release in 2010. However, no platforms were made explicit in the trailer. The Force Unleashed II trailer features voiceovers from both Darth Vader and Yoda, who are, in the trailer, in a conversation with Galen “Starkiller” Marek, the main character from the first game. Enjoy!

During the Star Wars Spectacular event earlier on today, LucasArts announced that the The Force Unleashed will be seeing further expansion this Fall through a new downloadable level that’s promises to take players to the famous Tattooine, meeting characters like Boba Fett and Obi-wan Kenobi.

The mission begins at the end of the story of The Force Unleashed and re-imagines the Star Wars Saga as if the Secret Apprentice had killed Darth Vader and taken his place at the Emperor’s side, becoming the most powerful Sith Lord in the universe.

The story picks up as the Emperor sends his new apprentice to the planet Tatooine to dispatch Obi-Wan Kenobi – who has been hiding on the planet ever since the events of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith. During their hunt for the reclusive Jedi, players will also explore the depths of Jabba the Hutt’s palace and encounter notorious bounty hunter Boba Fett.

In addition, LucasArts also announced Star Wars: The Force Unleashed – Ultimate Sith Edition, a special new version of the game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, that will show gamers the deepest, darkest side of the Force in a story that puts them on a collision course with Luke Skywalker himself.

Available this holiday season at retail stores, The Ultimate Sith Edition will include all of the original missions found in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed as well as content previously only available via download and an all-new exclusive bonus level.

Back in May, LucasArts informed it’s fans that it wasn’t doing a PC version of The Force Unleashed because of the vast differences in power of PCs in people’s homes. Now, Videogamer has informed us that Randy Stude, president of the PC Gaming Alliance, has slammed LucasArts for not releasing a PC version of massively successful Star Wars game The Force Unleashed.

Stude said that, “The PC being the gaming platform that it is, someone with a $4,000 high-end system would definitely be able to play the Euphoria, the DMM and really technical elements of the game. But someone with a low-end PC would have a watered down experience, they would have to turn all the settings down and it wouldn’t be the same game.”

“LucasArts hasn’t made a good PC game in a long time,” he said. “That’s my opinion. They make some pretty good games for the Wii, you know those little sticks you wave in the air, that seems like a natural fit for a lightsaber game, sure. But I think the last good PC game they made was probably Jedi Knight 2…”

LucasArts has many games featuring the name Star Wars, but what makes this game any different then the others? Well, for one thing the name speaks for it’s self, with a name like that you wont need any advertisements because it has everything to with releasing the Force. Today, LucasArts revealed that it’s recently release demo for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed has been download over 1 Million times on the Xbox 360 via Xbox live. This means that this game has been downloaded faster then the 360 original, Too Human. In addition to the record-breaking achievement LucasArts has revealed that the demo been downloaded more than 2.3 million times worldwide to date on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

In a video interview Matt Shell, Marketing Manager at LucasArts, confirmed that Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will be will be unleashing a demo via Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network in August.

The demo will feature the special version of the Tie Fighter Construction Facility level, the demo will also feature very special powers and a special ending that will not be featured in the full game.

Many rumors have been floating around concerning a possible price cut, and it looks like it’s time to give confirmation on the rumor. According to The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft will be indeed bring the console down to $299. And to add to the announcement there’s suggestion that a new 60GB Premium unit is set to replace the current 20GB edition will be announced at E3 later this month.

Now, that this rumor is no longer around I think it’s time that we talk about what you are going to with that $50 you saved? How about a new video game like The Force Unleashed you can aways pre-order the game? Huh…… I know you want too…….

There was a rumor going around that Kratos would be testing his blade against Darth Vader and his secret apprentice from the Star Wars universe in the upcoming PlayStation 3 version of Soul Calibur IV. The rumor wasn’t so far fetched, mainly because in other Soul Calibur games featured players for different universe’s like Link on the GameCube version and Heihachi on the PS2 version.  However thanks to a podcast made by 1UP the rumor was quickly smashed , stating that Kratos will be absent from Namco’s upcoming game. But, there still is the strong possible that he could be included in future planned downloadable content.

Let’s just hope that they do included Kratos in upcoming downloadable content for the game because i know there alot of people who can’t wait too play as him.

Remember when LucasArts assured us that the layoffs wouldn’t affect the development of  the upcoming Star Wars game, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed . According to Joystiq, the LucasArts layoffs included some of the members of the Force Unleashed team. Joystiq happen to talk to one of the many ex-member of the team he/she told them that “the layoffs came just as work on the game was wrapping up.” Right now, the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is un-delayed and is still set for a September 16 release date.
