The Force Is Strong With George Lucas' Wallet

For a game that many people wrote off for shoddy controls and questionable graphical quality, The Force Unleashed has reached the "sold seven million units worldwide" mark. The charm of the title was perhaps not that it was a new entry in the Star Wars canon, but that it was somewhat decent and not a BioWare title. For me, it was the combination of finally feeling in control of a being that was a serious Force-powerhouse and getting a fresh spin on what can sometimes be a very stale mythology.

Lucasarts is not satisfied with this meager accomplishment and is already pushing forward on a sequel that is coming this year. It will be interesting to see how the Star Wars MMO stacks up in terms of sales figures.

Maybe we'll see a sequel to Masters of Teras Kasi? Maybe it will be good? Maybe a Capcom vs Star Wars?

Hm... Right.
