Anyone excited for this game? I just played the demo and it was smurfin awesome. It'll take some time to get used to throwing things with the Force, but its really fun once you do. Plus in the demo you get to cut a AT-ST in half...via QTE, but it was still cool.

I was hyped for it. After the demo, I fully expect it to be a slightly above average game.

The demo left me kind of unimpressed. The Force becomes less of a cool feature and more of a chore. It's cool to lift stuff up and throw it around, but pretty soon it becomes necessary to use it in every single spot and do mindless tasks, like open doors (over and over and....). Some cool features, but its kind of generic and the one selling points (The Force) seemed more of a nuisance more times than not.

Demo was fun, if brief. I might have to give it a go.

I want it, but because I'm in college, I have to be picky with the titles I pick up at full price. Right now, those games are:
- Mercenaries 2(a few weeks after release) - Silent Hill: Homecoming - Gears of War - Fallout 3 - Fable 2 - Left 4 Dead - Dead Space
And maybe, just MAYBE Far Cry 2. Everything else I'll get when they become cheaper.

I played the demo and thought it was rather fun. I liked levitating something heavy over an enemy and just dropping it on them or slamming it down on them hard. And who doesn't like the ability to throw a light saber and impale someone on it? It could be good, I just hope it's got a decent story.

It's like a fun Psi-Ops.
Well, it was ok.
I may get it discount when the price drops after the initial sale.

I have this on pre-order at Gamestop. After playing the demo, I may change the pre-order to RB2 and, as others have said, wait for this to drop in price. I just wasnt overly impressed with the demo. I've played it 5 or 6 times, hoping that maybe it'll catch, but it never does. Its a good game, I just dont know if I wanna drop $60 on it. And this is coming from a huge Star Wars nerd that has been eagerly anticipating this game for over a year.

It`s the aiming that bugs me most. I can often be looking right at something at hit R2 (on PS3) to Force Grip, and an object off camera to my side will start levitating. That`s pretty screwed up.
Also not sure what the block button is about. Didn`t seem to make any difference whether I was holding it or not when troops were shooting me. I can only assume that it`s for lightsaber fights.
Having said that it did provide me with a few moments where I laughed out loud. Specifically the Stormtroopers grabbing others when I swing them over each other, and the droids getting sucked out the windows when you smash them.

I played the 360 version of the demo, and the blocking worked just fine against blasters. I think there was even a trooper using a standing cannon, that was the real world equivalent to a 50 cal. gun, and he was blocking just fine.

I want to play it so bad, but I still need to break down and get a 360.
