Jeff Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 To make up for the lack of DMM and euphoria, Krome studios has included 5 exclusive levels that the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions will not include. http://www.forceunleashed.net/news/exclusive-force-unleashed-levels-for-wii/ I think this is definitely a good way to make up for what the Wii lacks and it definitely makes it a more attractive game when you're deciding which version to get.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 A good way indeed. That, paired with the exclusive duel mode really make the game look like it's able to compete with it's twin versions. I'm still getting it for the 360, though.
TKA-001 Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 I hate it when they make the games different between each console. It's basically saying "You have a 360 (or whatever) instead of a Wii? Well too bad, screw you." It reminds me of that Xbox-only expansion pack for Battlefront 2.
Jeff Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 Its not screwing anybody. Wii owners don't get the physics engines that the PS3 and 360 versions get, we get dumbed down versions. I think it just makes all the versions more equal.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Yeah, it's like the PSP version getting historical exclusive missions. It's obvious, from being handheld, that Sony portable console will have the worst graphics (Except for the DS). So it's more than fair that they get a compensation.
Jeff Posted January 30, 2008 Author Posted January 30, 2008 The historical missions was something that I wish other versions (eg whatever version I get ) would have because I just think it'd be really cool to do battles like Luke vs Vader with the over the top Force powers. So I see where people are coming from when they say they want the other versions exclusives.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 If it was a japanese developer, they would release a year later a "TFU +" with all those extras wrapped up on one game for the price of the same game a year ago.
Vegetaz Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 I am a Wii owner, and, to be honest . . . I had no clue that the Wii version didn't have DMM or ephoria . . . that destroys it for me. I thought, until I read this thread, that both were still applied to the Wii, the graphics just weren't as powerful. I would rather have those two advantages than 5 added levels. The advanced physics is what attracted me to this game so much. Now, I don't know anymore . . . I'd buy a 360 or ps3 just to have that added bonus! Anyway, to those who own a ps3 or 360, you are not being cheated whatsoever . . . in my opinion. And I think many would agree with me. Anyway . . . I guess I can only hope . . .
TKA-001 Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Wii owners don't get the physics engines that the PS3 and 360 versions get, we get dumbed down versions. That proves my point even more. No console should get the short end of the stick in any respect.
BurningZero Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 That proves my point even more. No console should get the short end of the stick in any respect. so you're saying that the ps3 should have the same graphics as the one on the ps2?
Serpentine Cougar Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Maybe the question that should be asked is, How many people are going to buy the game for multiple consoles? (Now I have no idea what console I want this game on - though it might just be the X360 because it has the biggest number of games that I want.)
Jeff Posted January 31, 2008 Author Posted January 31, 2008 That proves my point even more. No console should get the short end of the stick in any respect.The Wii can't handle the physics engines, thats why they're not included. If it didn't have to get the "short end of the stick" it wouldn't. The Wii exclusives are there to make the Wii version more appealing. Nobody would get the Wii version if it didn't have something that the X360 and PS3 ones didn't.
PoiuyWired Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Good, stay tune for Gamefaqs so we can get all the codes Well, I do agree that maybe some of the models would be quite attractive, but unfortunately the location I live in currently have little access to star wars stuff. Hack, even real star wars fans are rare... and by that I mean the simple requirement of having watched all 6 movies within 1 year and know that wookiees does not live on Endor.
BurningZero Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 are there realy some people that think wookies are from endor....? GO PS3 VERSION
LordOfTheFish Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Well I think Not making it for the Wii would have been a terrible Idea so I am very glad they decided to.By the nature of play style the Wii features I hope they dont decide to make it like Fire Eblem where you turn the remote too the side and work it like a regular controller.That would definitely make the game less attractive.
timster0 Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Thank god I have a wii. I love how u can use the remote as the sabre and the nunchuck with the force! I'm buying this on the day its released.

(Now I have no idea what console I want this game on - though it might just be the X360 because it has the biggest number of games that I want.) A lot of people I think. There are many gamers out there with multiple consoles. I'm not just talking about the hardcore ones either. A lot of people I know have the Xbox 360, PS3, as well as the Wii.

TheProphet Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Lol, they must either have too much money, or too much debt.... Well, it's usually too much money to be honest. Most of the time, it's a poor use of it as well
tyrone333 Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Well that spoils my freind he get's 5 extra levels for the lack of DMM and Ephoria Well at least i'll get a version of 360
Jeff Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 Maybe the question that should be asked is, How many people are going to buy the game for multiple consoles? (Now I have no idea what console I want this game on - though it might just be the X360 because it has the biggest number of games that I want.) For me it depends when it comes out. I'll be at home during the summer and my brother has an Xbox 360 and plans to buy it. I'll definitely be getting the Wii version. But if it comes out too late where I'll already be back at school my roommate next year has a 360 so I would buy it for that.
Henz Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 I wouldn't be shocked if the extra levels or some other kind of content won't be implemented on the 360 version as downloadable content later on.

mrpanicy Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 I am sure it will do well enough for that. I am more worried about the multiplayer. When I say multiplayer I don't mean dueling. Thats a cope out in my opinion. Thats dual player. I am talking Deathmatch and stuff. But enough of that, you can read my thoughts on the subject in the multiplayer thread. None-the-less. It makes sense for the game to have some differences, there are things that some consoles can't do, so to make up for it they get something else. I don't grudge them that, as I am sure they don't grudge me watching ST's tumbling through the air hopelessly grasping for something to arrest their flight.
Ben Paddon Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 If it was a japanese developer, they would release a year later a "TFU +" with all those extras wrapped up on one game for the price of the same game a year ago. ...But only for one console.
