Xirion Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Is there already too much pressure on the game to be great, its hyped up in circles as the greatest SW game ever, and it does look good, but as people build expectations for this to be the have all and end all of SW games. Could TFU be ina for a beating if it doesnt deliver to everyone?
PoiuyWired Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Yes, I think it is going to be a disappointment in one way or another for quite some people. I think it would be a good game, but definitely not the beginning of a new world of gaming as some might anticipate.
Prime Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 It only has to be the greatest game of all time. What's the problem?
JawaJoey Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 I'm excited for this game because it looks like it's going to be amazing. Not because it's overhyped. This game has frankly received very little attention. There's no real media buzz about it. No commercials, nothing even at E3, yet. We're still scarce on information. Granted, there is almost a year to go, but at this point, they're barely hyping this game at all, (to my dismay, even), and we're the ones who are doing all the excitedness. It doesn't appear that they're using marketing to polish a turd or anything, that's what I'm saying. So I'm not too scared of disappointment.

Could TFU be ina for a beating if it doesnt deliver to everyone? Despite what Jawajoey said, I think that TFU is being overhyped. Yeah, it uses a technology that, currently, only that game and the instant-classic GTA IV work on Euphoria. Course it's being hyped then, even and ever in the shadows of the polemic Rockstar game, that's expected. I think, however, that it'll be great, IF the final product is what it promises now. But, for some people, it'll be a letdown, no doubt. You think, that when the only Star Wars title announce for the next year (aside from a reduced Battlefront game and a re-release of two recent LEGO based games in one) won't be hyped?

I'm sure that hype will ramp up significantly in the coming months. We'll see if they overdo it. But so far, none of my excitement for the game has come from propaganda or media exposure. The facts are what are getting me pumped.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 I don't think there is too much pressure on the game. Hey, they pushed the release date back a bit so they can ensure the best for the game. I think they are doing just fine by the looks of it.
PoiuyWired Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Actually I am happy that they are willing to push the release date back instead of giving us yet another rushed glitchy game. I am willing to wait, and I hope others are also.
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 It only has to be the greatest game of all time. What's the problem? I though KOTOR 3 was going to be the greatest game of all time....
Pho3nix Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 I though KOTOR 3 was going to be the greatest game of all time.... Never gonna happen...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 You can't call 'KOTOR 3' the greatest game of all-time, if it's not even announced yet. So, let's just say, The Force Unleashed is the best game of all-time.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 You can't call 'KOTOR 3' the greatest game of all-time, if it's not even announced yet. True, you can't. But the way he said that, it made sound like Kotor itself isn't going to be made.
Sabretooth Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 If there is any pressure on the game, it is because it is the first Star Wars game released in some time (and I'm not taking Lego Star Wars into account here). Also, we haven't had a decent Jedi-whacking, lightsaber-swinging, all-round action game since Jedi Academy, and so everybody wants to make sure this game doesn't blow it.
Xirion Posted July 20, 2007 Author Posted July 20, 2007 hmmm the circle im in TFU is very hyped up, but thats all from SW Geeks
tk102 Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Speaking of hype, just noticed this today http://starwars.yahoo.com
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Nice! Dark Troopers make an appearance! And the Rancor seems more like a Boss of a level, and it's indeed in Felucia!
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 I think they're making him way to powerful. Jeez, do you have complain or comment on everything?
Ctrl Alt Del Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 I think they're making him way to powerful. That is on purpose, the game is "Force Unleashed", so, Force powers should... Ah, you got it already.
Sabretooth Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 @Jodo, CAD, Zionosis: No game was, is or will ever be greater than Pong. No, just shut up.
Sabretooth Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 Right, you just hang on to your miserable Mario when my Video Game Nazies invade your house. I think they're making him way to powerful. Vader wouldn't pick up a bum to be his apprentice, you know.
