Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 Kills Off Han And Chewie, Gives Me Nightmares

I came across this vid cut scene from the new Force Unleashed game, Battle For Endor and had to share it. This game retcons established Star Wars continuity in a very disturbing way! Take a looksee...

I'm sure you will join me in a collective WTF? I must have closed my eyes during that bit of Return Of The Jedi I guess. LucasArts seem happy enough to destroy any semblance of continuity set by the original trilogy. Is this considered canon? There are so many Star Wars related games, books, cartoons..its kinda hard to keep track of. Anyway, I'm off to cuddle my Chewbacca teddy bear:(

It's not a retcon, it's a "What if...?"

The Force Unleashed games are not Canon. That character is simply way too overpowered with the force.

The Force Unleashed games ARE considered canonical, but both of them have two separate endings, a "light side" ending, which follows the normal canon, and "dark side" ending, which is NOT canon. This clip is part of the DLC which follows the dark side, NON-CANONICAL ending.

If there's any reason not to play this game, its cuz it's a terrible and disappointing cash-in response to the first one.

Yeah, not part of the actual game. I have the game and that's neither ending too it be it light or dark. Besides, if it were it would rule out TFU3 which is coming that continues right after and before Episode 4. This is DLC like they had with TFU where you blow up the Falcon on Hoth and turn Luke to the Dark Side.

CbC277, ah I see you skipped the part of the article where I ask "Is This canon?" then? That's a question, not an assumption. Asshat.

over at IGN.COM they've just done a Rewind Theater: Thor Trailer.
Maybe someone can upload it to CBM.COM
not me though I can't be bothered

Still....it looks pretty cool, and is very original. I didn't care for the first game much but may get this one if this is just a taste of more possiblities to come. Very Interesting.
Good job Ror!

Im going to have to agree with RinjoClans, its not worth the buy. its a fun game so if you want to play it rent it but don't buy it.

Oh and seriously guys its just a video game don't get your panties in a twist! Its just an alternate storyline that doesn't follow the movies.
RinjoClans
RinjoClans - 12/16/2010, 12:04 PM
And come on, lets not get on Ror's ass for not knowing, this is what this site is FOR, a member saw something that caught his attention, and wanted to see what the rest of us would make of it, and now he knows.

it is from a dlc pack right? not in continuity...
Brashlight
Brashlight - 12/16/2010, 12:08 PM
I would have to agree with Rinjo, He was just making an observation and he even asked the question. its on CbC277 for not reading the whole article.
Brashlight
Brashlight - 12/16/2010, 12:08 PM
SuspenseSmith@ I was wondering why noone answers my questions lol!
RinjoClans
RinjoClans - 12/16/2010, 12:11 PM
oh, and I definitely don't blame him for not playing this heap of garbage, let alone shelling out an extra 15 dollars for the DLC.

you can play a good or evil path in these games, usually, guess this is just the evil path

Loving the force unleashed games....This is how the force should be.

SWTOR Trailers show the pumped up force powers also.

LOVE IT!!!

@ Ror: It's a "What If?" Scenario if you went with the Dark in the original. Yes though the game itself is Cannon. You Should put it in the Body somewhere or in the title so people don't flip out. I have noticed a few people already say what I have.

in these games, the force powers just look more powerful. When you're playing as Vader in the first one, his powers don't look any less impressive than Starkiller's.

The creators of the game just wanted it to be as visually pleasing as they possibly could. Starkiller isn't more powerful than Luke or Yoda. Its all visual for the game.

That's hysterical, it's sad seeing Han go out like that but Ford is a jerk about the movie so I guess it's deserved.

I've not bought this game yet because of the mostly negative reviews. I'll definitely pick it up when it comes down in price though, and this clip alone makes me want to get it! :D It is a little upsetting though I must admit...
RinjoClans
RinjoClans - 12/16/2010, 12:49 PM
Josh, even when it does come down, it takes a total of, I'd say... 5-8 hours to finish? It's really only good enough for a rent, and has no real replay value.

That is DLC. It is not canon. It is just for kicks and giggles. It is a 'what-if'.

Please do not discount this game now because you have seen this.
This DLC is not canon.
NOT CANON!
NOT
FREAKING
CANON

If you decide to not play this game because of that clip, please get the [frick] off of this website. Please
