I'll be getting mine as soon as I get off work. Can't wait to play it. The graphics look amazing and the audio is also supposed be great as well.

I downloaded the PS3 demo and played right through it. Not the best game ever, but still a lot of fun.

I'm sure I'll get it eventually, but I have such a backlog of unplayed games that it'll probably be in the $20 bin by then.

The reviews have been disappointing. Now, it's not that I haven't bought bad games or games that got bad reviews, but I think I can wait this one out a little bit.

I was really looking forward to this game but after reading numerous reviews I don't think I want to spend $60 on a game with problems and only about 7-10 hours of game play. I'll wait for something better.

The length isn't what got to me. The quality of that 7-10 hours is what hurts. The Wii version has an added fighting mode but I'm not sure how the single-player is different from the PS3/360 versions.

Re: Who's getting "Star Wars:The Force Unleashed"?

GameSpot rated the X360 and PS3 versions 7.5 and the Wii version only 6.0, which is pretty unusual for them unless there are really significant differences between the versions. I didn't read their review of the Wii version though.

For anyone on the fence, Toys R Us is advertising a $20(!) gift card with purchase of the PS3 or XBox 360 version of the game.

Their weekly sales generally run through Saturday.
