No thanks. Thanks for the video, though!

Actually He IS a clone. In the novel they made it clear that even though every Starkiller had the original’s memories, they expressed them differently. THIS Starkiller didn’t really care about his father, and admitted those feelings belonged to another’s life. Even though your SK was fixated on Juno… that was pretty much it. That’s all he really cared about. Also someone manages to Clone Luke from his missing hand. That Jedi’s name was Luuke.

The Wii exclusive “Force rage” power puts Starkiller into a bullet time mode exclusive to the Wii, and it also has a Force sight power not included on other platforms. What’s more, the Wii version also has a multiplayer mode in which four players can challenge each other in a fighting-style combat game. In addition to all that, the Wii game also has an extra story-based level, on Dagobah, that is not present in the HD version of the game, making the plot of the Wii game slightly different from the HD version.
The Wii version of the game was generally considered by reviewers to be the better version of the game, due to the significantly different storyline, extra levels and the addition of a multiplayer mode. Most reviewers thought it was simply the most completed version of the game, and that the HD version was rushed, resulting in a less satisfactory product.

You hit opponents multiple times with the LS. Why do you have to slash Vader so many times?

That seems to be the only way where you can grasp the story.

You completely missed the point of the plot in this game. Yes Starkiller in this one is said to be a clone, but the game never reveals hard proof of that while your playing and you are left wondering if he really is the same Starkiller that survived his death at the hands of the emperor and is being reprogrammed by Darth Vader to take out the rebel alliance he helped shape.

As for your quip for saying he is stalking Juno, she is the only memory he still grasps and Vader is using it so he can end her, besides he has no where else to go once he runs off. It’s the only lead he has to find the truth about himself and who he is and if he is real and chases after her inorder to find out the truth

Like before he never had hard evidence to support he was a clone and through out the game characters were saying it was impossible to clone a Jedi and you are shown the reason why as they go made and end messed up.

Which was an interesting direction given the clone wars and the question why they weren’t cloning dead Jedi instead of Jango Fett.

Eitherway I love the relationship Vader has with Starkiller and found it a very intriguing expansion on who Vader was and his own personality besides a mindless black armored knight boss to defeat at the end of the game.

This had a good deep story about Starkiller and Vader and helped expand further upon that relationship and I enjoyed the drama and fun in this game, without it being turned into some mindless single Jedi vs Empire game, where its just you against the entire empire.

But obviously you seemed to biased or weren’t paying enough attention to the game to care and give it a fair go.

I also find it quite a double standard where you play other games where you kill enemies and they die with same animation types repeatedly but decided to treated this game completely differently.

But I agree with you that the game was to short and that on normal the game wasn’t as challenging with the force powers you had, though beating it on hard I did find challenging, along with some other hang ups with it such as where you weren’t punished for messing up a combination finisher on an enemy with that interactive button press scene.

SPOILER!!…its been a while since i finished this game but i remember that there´s some kind of “light or dark” ending. In the “light” ending vader is arrested, but if you decide to finish him another star killer´s perfect clone kills you revealing that, yes, you were a clone after all. That ending unblocks hidden images and cinematics that displays the original star killer body in some sort of cryogenic tube where vader could take samples of his blood to clone him. But as i said before, its been a long time since i finished it and of course i only played once due all the problems that mike reviewed, so please correct me if im wrong here.
