Lucas' The Force Unleashed Coming To The iPhone

Looks like we're getting a pretty bad-ass and highly anticipated action title from the Star Wars genre ported over to the iPhone this September. Have a look at this video showing off The Force Unleashed on the iPhone.

Quote:
As far as we know and to THQ Wireless’ knowledge we’re the first with any sort of footage for the upcoming release of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and here it is for all of you readers. It’s a very cool game and an ingenious way of using the touchscreen. The accelerometer is only used to switch gameplay from landscape to portrait at any time. It’s still a work in progress and won’t be released until September 16, but we didn’t notice any glitches. I can say without a doubt that this is going to be a hot, hot game for the iPhone/iPod platform. Enough yapping.
Love the iPwn or not, you have to admit that's pretty sweet. I'll still be buying the PC version of this game, but to have it in my pocket while traveling will be hot.

the game looked cool, but I'm kind of surprised how annoying it is to have your finger on the screen all the time. I mean, I don't want a D-pad or anything on the phone, but I wouldn't enjoy this game, doing the little screen-squiggles as directed.

probably a lot better to play in person than watch, though.

Looks like a lot of fun, if you enjoy drawing squiggles and swiping.

Negative Nancy here, this game looks repetitive.

Well in all fairness, the guy seemed like he was just using the same move. Maybe it's a little repetitive in the beg. He also looked like he could have done a lot more, but ignored it for the easy move.
