Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for PC from Steam, played with keyboard and mouse.
Looks great, but the controls are awful. Hitting your target with a force thrown object is basically random chance. And switching to 2D mode for boss battles makes them stupidly difficult…suddenly, all that you learned playing in the 3D mode is taken away and you’re put in a platformer, only with even more broken controls; you think you’re about to Force Lightning the boss, and it just fizzles right next to them. And to top it all off, there are quick time events…
This could have been an awesome game if they fixed the controls and removed the QTEs, but as it is the controls ruin the experience.
For a longer review, this guy tells it like it is.
