Nothing earth-shattering to report on The Force Unleashed II (we figure that will come from CV) but we have a few tidbits that you may find interesting...

First up, WorthPlaying.com is displaying some new screenshots from the Nintendo Wii and DS versions of the game.

Just as Amazon has offered a pre-order bonus for The Force Unleashed II that includes exclusive challenge levels, GameStop has their own pre-order promotion going. From the TFU II site:


"Exclusive Maulkiller pack, available through pre-order from GameStop:

•Exclusive Character: Maulkiller - In the cloning facilities of Kamino, Darth Vader created a warrior of unparalleled strength and power by combining the genetic material of Darth Maul, former apprentice of Sith Lord Darth Sidious, with his own apprentice, Starkiller. The resulting aberrant clone possessed traits from both warriors, but the crude fusion of two disparate Force users quickly produced physical and mental instabilities that led to the unfortunate clone's destruction. For a brief time he struck fear into the hearts of all who faced him, even Lord Vader himself.

•Exclusive Maulkiller Silver Saber Crystal – The perfect complement to Maulkiller's appearance, the silver crystal make his dual lightsabers look like an extension of the silver Zabrac styled tattoos that cover his body and face. This powerful crystal allows Maulkiller to consume less Force Energy so he can devastate his enemies."
