            Was thinking about it, but considering I own a Wii and was a bit disappointed by the first game, I'm hesitant to go get this one.  Although, the Smash Brothers style multiplayer does make it a bit more enticing.
  Also the fact that I read the novelization and it was utterly forgettable and lame makes me wary of purchasing a game despite the fact that it may have great gameplay and mechanics.  Seriously, I hated the book.

Seriously, I hated the book.    The wii was total a$$, so if I get it - and that's still an if - it'll be on the 360. Of course with Rock Band coming out this week, STFU2 might take a backseat until some Christmas sales.

            I was going to get it for my 360 but I have a fight sat night and if I get it now I'll be playing it non stop and loosing sleep.... so I'll wait till sunday morning and get it OR if I don't feel like an after party set might get it at Walmart on the way home.
  I really wish they had made dlc for the republic heroes game

            I'm playing the first game on Wii and having a lot of fun with it. I played it before on PS2 and think Wii is better. Never played it on a NextGen console so no clue how different it is for that...

            I will get it eventually, but Fable III and Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage are higher priorities for me (as well as finishing Fallout: New Vegas).

            And the bad reviews start pouring in:  http://www.gamerankings.com/xbox360/981370-star-wars-the-force-unleashed-ii/index.htmlIGN gives it 6.5 out of 10, Eurogamer gives it 5 out of 10 and GamePro say 2.5 out of 5. So all in all, sounds like I was wise to give it a miss until the 20 dollar Greatest Hits edition.

            I haven't read any reviews for the Wii yet, but it appears I will be renting first.

            I got the game and i enjoyed playing it because of the awesome graphics and the fun gameplay, but the story is seriously meh. In my opinion, not really worth $60. But I still like it for what it is.

            The second game is a great improvement over the first one, at least for the Wii. Definate signs of a great action platformer. But seriously, 5-6 levels??? With one being NO ACTION AT ALL (granted, I did like the Dagabah cave, but seriously, the first part of the level was walk down a path). And there was no enemy diversity at all. At best, around 11 different enemy types. I'm glad I didn't by this game retail, only rented it. Biggest rip off I've ever seen.
  Bring on TOR.

            Just beat TFU 2. Man this game is just BAD. It's horrendously short, and completely unremarkable in every way. Boring enemies, boring level design, and very few cool bosses. Glad I didn't buy it, and could borrow it from a friend instead!
