The Force Unleashed II Pre-Order Packs
If you are like myself and completely hyped up for the release of The Force Unleashed II, the ultimate choice is up to you. You must choose carefully my Padawans. Join the Dark Side you can, but only you can decide your fate.
Maulkiller Pack Pre-Order from Gamestop:
Exclusive Character: Maulkiller – In the cloning facilities of Kamino, Darth Vader created a warrior of unparalleled strength and power by combining the genetic material of Darth Maul, former apprentice of Sith Lord Darth Sidious, with his own apprentice, Starkiller. The resulting aberrant clone possessed traits from both warriors, but the crude fusion of two disparate Force users quickly produced physical and mental instabilities that led to the unfortunate clone’s destruction. For a brief time he struck fear into the hearts of all who faced him, even Lord Vader himself.Two Challenge Levels Pre-Order from Amazon.com:
Exclusive Challenge: The Mystical Swamps of Dagobah – Explore the mystical swamps of Dagobah in this exclusive challenge. The setting for this challenge is an abstract version of the Dagobah level in the game. Yoda is testing your skills with this dreamlike space. Use Force Grip to lift objects out of the swampy depths of the surface of Dagobah and use them to navigate to your goal. The faster you can do this the more your rewards will be. Beware! Danger lurks just below the smoky surface of the water. The stone pillars you Force Grip and lift out of the murky waters aren’t stable and can collapse at any time, the water is toxic too – wait too long on a platform and suffer the consequences.Chapter 1: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal Review
He’s Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty Pirate. Of course you already knew that…..maybe. Telltale Games and Lucas Arts have teamed up to bring you a new story of Guybrush Threepwood’s adventures on the high seas of the Caribbean. In keeping with the story of the 1990 PC game the Secret of Monkey Island, Telltale has created a new swashbuckling story that will take Guybrush through 5 chapters (or episodes) of adventure and danger. The Launch of the Screaming Narwhal is the first chapter in the monthly series that will have five total chapters. If you are a fan of the previous games you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see the humor and personality are intact as well as the nostalgic references to the previous games.
On the story side of things you’ll find that unlike the Wallace and Gromit series these games are meant to played in order. The game takes about 5-6 hours to complete and each chapter is a small part of a bigger story that unfolds as you play. Yes, you will be left hanging and eagerly awaiting the next game to find out what happens or what something means. I won’t use a spoiler example, instead I’ll give you one that looks into the humor of the storytelling. When you are searching the island you come across a chest. Guybrush attempts to open it and he says he won’t be opening that in this episode. I WANNA KNOW WHAT IS IN THERE! Its name is the Chest of Foreshadowing which was kinda funny to me. Here’s a brief synopsis about the first episode.
