LucasArts has today confirmed that its next blockbuster videogame, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will be heading to next gen consoles, as well as the good old PlayStation 2, PSP, and Nintendo DS this coming November.
Check out some of the new concept art also just released at the bottom of this story.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is set in-between 2005's mildly disappointing Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and the original and (arguably) still the best Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope from way back in 1977.
The game will be making use of NaturalMotion's Euphoria and Pixelux's Digital Molecular Matter (DMM) technologies (well, on next-generation rigs, at least) as is also the case with LucasArt’s forthcoming Indiana Jones game, promising “true next-gen gameplay and the Force like it's never been seen or experienced before."
Gulp!

PC gaming is a dying breed, but sometimes it gets a dose of what a level console playing field can off. It excells at RTS games and MMORPGs, but misses out on so much. I respect them still though.
Due to all the constant upgrading PCs need, I've stopped playing PC games and my 360 has taken its place.
This Star Wars game sounds good, but I haven't even sampled Lethal Alliance yet. So many games, so little time.

The only platform that can compete with PC software sales in the UK is the PS2. The PC regularly sells three times the number of games that the 360 does.
It is by no means a dying breed.

no PC version? :(
I've started to migrate back to PC gaming, so I was gonna sit out this gen of 'console wars'. I dont recall any good star wars game that hasn't been on PC, would be foolish to not release it on there too if this is such a major cross-platform cross-media star wars event.
('Empire' is the best film, so there :P)
(and Ep III was allright too)
