On September 16, LucasArts will release Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, the latest addition to George Lucas’ science fiction universe where you get to play the role of Darth Vader’s secret apprentice - Starkiller.

Set between the events of episodes III and IV, the videogame promises to fill the gaps between the two film trilogies, a time period that saw the Empire cement its hold over the galaxy.

In technology that is breakthru - tather than relying on prescripted sequences and events, The Force Unleashed creates on-the-fly reactions from characters and materials.
