Even though there was the very disappointing release of Star Wars: The Clone Wars this week, we can look forward to a demo for the Force Unleashed. The game is shaping up to be one of the most technically advanced games to ever be released, and it is already being touted as the most expensive game ever. Although the story sounds intriguing, I think it could be the falling point for a game that looks to be amazing. We get a chance to try it out on Xbox Live and PSN this week, so that question might be answered soon. The demo will allow you to play one level of the game at the TIE fighter construction facility and it may feature a Jedi fight at the end (against Rahm Kota). Just get ready to download the demo this Thursday (August 21st)
After a big announcement a few weeks ago when Xbox Japan posted an outstanding price tag of 1800 MS Points ($22.49) for Castle Crashers, Behemoth’s new XBLA game, the internet went crazy at this highly priced game. Microsoft and Behemoth quickly responded against the rumors and said that the price was still under discussion and that there is no official number out yet. Today, they released an official price tag of 1200 MS Points, which is $15. A pretty standard amount for a big game like Castle Crashers and it will undoubtedly be worth it. Now we just have to wait until next Wednesday. Come back to this page for the flash counter above.
