The Force Unleashed On Your iPhone? Posted By Mike on August 6, 2008
Apparently you can play The Force Unleashed on the new version of the iPhone that just hit stores last week. Seems as if we'll be able to play TFU anywhere...except on the PC. Click here for the write-up at Gizmodo.
UPDATE #2:Click here for MTV.com's write up on The Force Unleashed on the iPhone and see below for some details from the article.
"THQ Wireless is taking a unique approach with bringing George Lucas’ universe to the Apple platform and smartly removed most of the player’s control over their character.
Instead touching the screen to direct character movement, you’re following on-screen patterns to manipulate Force powers. It’s not the most complicated thing in the world, but given the lack of buttons on the iPhone, it works rather well.
Some of the time, it’s just about following the presented pattern as fast as possible. But there are many times where several enemies — or especially in the case of boss sequences — require a specific strategy to advance without losing much health. Taking out enemies in the right order can make surviving to the end a much more pleasant process."
