Recent offerings of the Star Wars games where you could play as one of the game's lightsaber-wielding warriors, the Jedi, never really captured the awesomeness of being someone who could kill a yak from a distance with mind bullets. Sure, there was the lightsaber-twirling, the force-choking, pushing and pulling things with the power of thought alone - but you never really got to pull off what the Jedi in the movies can do with impunity.

The upcoming next-gen title bearing the space opera's name, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, DS) could be the answer to all our Jedi needs. In this video, entitled Unleashing The Force: Part 1, we see just what direction the Jedi games are going, and it's a direction that's been a long time coming. Promising to give players the ultimate Jedi experience, this could be the killer app we've been waiting for - at least, when the Star Wars license is concerned.

We won't spoil the entirety of the video for you, because frankly, it needs to be watched. If you're a Star Wars fan, or if you even remotely like the idea of cutting people up with a lightsaber, then watch this. You will not be disappointed.

 » not quite killer app

I cant wait to play this on my 360 but I still cant help but think the ultimate jedi game is going to be whenever Lucasgames decides to grace the Wii with a lightsabre duel. Something like Jedi Knight would be a natural for the wii...the weak arguments about control issues are easly overcome with a little thought using rumble, etc.

they've tried the whole controlling lightsabers before with motion control. It's not a killer ap by anymeans. more like an arcade game with a gimmik.
