Star Wars Game Unleashes… Vader!

An online gaming site confirmed today that lucky 360, PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii, and DS players will indeed be able to step inside the black suit and play as Darth Vader in the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Unleashed game — but only in the first level because the man in black is just too powerful. From that point forward, players will proceed as Vader’s “secret padawan.”
While this is good news for most people, it’s bad for me — and for Sean. We never got past the level in Battlefront II in which Vader’s playable because each time one of us became Vader we relentlessly force choked everyone, including each other. Though team-killing is normally de rigueur-no, it’s completely permissible when you’re playing Luke’s dad. Why? Because you’re Vader, of course.
Here’s to enjoying the first level a few times before we give up.

GWC is a community of friendly people who enjoy and participate in geekdom as a whole. We are young and old, female and male, writers and readers, teachers and students, philosophers and skeptics, Browncoats and Trekkies, outside continents and beyond countries -- and we have one thing in common: passionate, shameless enthusiasm.
We’re interested in TV shows, movies, comics, novels, gaming, science, and music. We’re interested in each other. We like to chat about just about any topic. We’ll listen and give informed feedback, and at the end of the day we think of GWC as a clubhouse for a (very large) group of friends.
