IGN reviews Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

IGN reviews “Star Wars: The Force Unleashed”:

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is a valiant effort at rejuvenating the largely underwhelming Star Wars videogame franchise. Some of the technology here is a little too far ahead of its time, though that could prove to be promising for future installments. Uninspired level design and some tedious enemy battles mar an experience that gives you power over the Force like we’ve never really seen before. While it’s far from perfect, Star Wars fans will find that it’s worth playing through simply for its story and the ability to use the Force in fairly awesome ways.

They give it a 7.3, which matches up quite nicely to the 73 the game currently enjoys on MetaCritic.
