True, i hope that Starkiller remains neither sith or jedi but greater then both.
If anything we have more then enough examples that being a jedi does not automaticlly mean you are good or right.
Both the jedis and siths dogmatic views are wrong imo, but i doubt Lucas will allow them to thread of his path.

I'll join the chorus stating they've prefer another Jed Knight, KotOR and add that I reallty wish they'd find a way to do that Indiana Jones prototype justice.

According to the devs, KOTOR MMO does indeed = KOTOR 3.... and 4,5,6,etc. They even hinted that some characters may be in the mmo. They also seem to hint that the mmo will explain what happened in that 300 year gap between KOTOR 2 and the mmo.

Seconded. Motion Plus and Sony Wand support would be sex as well.

I enjoyed TFU so I'm looking forward to this, although I'm intrigued how they're going to pick up the story.
I'd also like another Jedi Knight, but only if it's in the style of Dark Forces & JK1 rather than the Raven ones.

Just wanted to share one of my favorite cutscenes in the first game. Don't follow the link if you haven't played. Something about this made me think you want to go? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWIGeYSZ4q4#t=6m27s

I loved the first Force Unleashed.
It did lack in depth, but it was my GOTY of 2008 besides Fallout 3 of course, just based off the amount of fun that I had.
That being said, I was very disappointed that we only got a pre-rendered cinematic considering the first game came out 2 years ago. Just a small taste of gameplay or something.
ALSO: Is it too much to ask that the people that didn't play FU1 or any previous game, stay out of the goddamn sequel threads? Goddamn.

Ugh.
Should've been a much delayed sequel to TIE Fighter. Or many of the other SW games I loved.

Oh man, I'm going to hate myself even more for talking about this, let alone knowing it.
But if we're including the Expanded Universe (which The Forced Unleashed essentially is, but like Shadows of the Empire, it has more weight than the novels in the "canon"), the he's actually kind of correct. Depending on the author, of course.
Some authors in the New Jedi Order series did try to imply that everything Palpatine did was in preparation of the Yuuzhan Vong. Some authors tried to sell the idea harder than others, but it was a pretty consistent theme during the time.

I don't think I have ever gotten as mad as I have at a game as I did playing The Force Unleashed on the Star Destroyer segment. Overall the game was sloppy but that part was downright broken. I can't believe they shipped a game where the on-screen prompts to complete the task were wrong. If you attempted to follow the on-screen prompts you would fail. What the fuck.
Fun could be had with The Force Unleashed but it was clearly an unfinished product and I chalk that up to Lucas Arts shit canning the development staff before they shipped the game. What pisses me off is that they don't even address any of the game's MANY issues when they decide to resell TFU with its overpriced DLC as The Sith Edition. But hey, you get a fancy little tin.
I paid 20$ for the Force Unleashed, and that's what I expect I'll pay for its sequel if I buy it at all.

Well going by the teaser, it seems that the cgi will be even better this time around.

Haha, don't beat up yourself over knowing that info.
Yeah, i had also heard about that but since it isn't canon i didn't accept that info as part of the saga.
There is a lot of shit like that in the EU, ridiculouse retconned stuff.
And there isn't anywhere in canon that states that being the reason or even part of why Sidious gained all that power. Because in canon
Vong don't excist.
Some more about the teaser: Some are speculating that Starkiller
is in fact dead and is in some sort of force purgatory. Which to my memory we've never seen in canon.
Their proof of this are Vader more specifically talks about the life he no longer has and how he has to let go of that life. Yoda talks about death being a natural part of life, that he has to let go of his attachements(it could be that his love for Juno is what's keeping him there). The logo, in part 1 Starkiller can be seen with his saber in a stance. In 2, his image is clouded.

Sadly the trailer that went up on the official site is the same VGA teaser.
Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for new info.
On another note, i did find this page at Kotaku of the TFU2 unveiling.

"The tipster said the game is being developed internally at LucasArts and will be out in late 2010. "It is everything the first game could/should have been and a lot lot more (online support!)" the tipster wrote."
Hopefully this means that TFU2 will pull an Assassin's Creed 2.
I call dibbs on making the official thread.

This was Zahn's writing in which he tries to cover his own ass. The Prequels fucked with his own original novels so he basically took the opportunity with the Outbound Flight book to retcon the mistakes into making sense by creating excuse related to the NJO storyline. It was pretty sad since his original ideas for Outbound Flight were long before the Vong were created so it's so obvious what he was doing.
Though to note the whole reason Palpatine took power and built the empire was not to defend against invaders, he merely used it as one of his reasonings for taking power, in protecting the galaxy from external threats. Palpatine never knew what exactly was coming to the galaxy, in what magnitude, or how actually dire the threat was.
Zahn is pretty good writer of SW fiction but his problem is whenever he does, it seems that hes trying to take control over the entire universe with his creations. He loves to take the work of others and somehow intertwine it with how own characters or have it somehow all come back to something he wrote before. Hes even pretty much been the most blatant when it comes to writing off other authors ideas by creating reasons that retcon previous entries.
HD versions of the teaser are up on the official site.

Holy shit, I hate not having regular contact with the internet. Galen is alive, and Yoda is training him?! There is another, indeed.
Fuck I can't wait for this. Sure the first had issues, but the story was far better than the prequels, and I had a ton of fun with the Force powers despite targeting problems. If they can make a more polished and concise game, with a story that lives up to the first, it would prob be my goty.
