I'm a little ticked off. I got up (like I normally do) at 4:30 am so I could go to the gym and get my morning workout in before work. While I was getting breakfast, I figured on starting the download so I would have when I got off work. IT'S WASN'T THERE YET!!!!!!

I just got done playing it. For almost a gig it's pretty short. But It's really freakin' awesome.

Finally got to download the demo....HOLY $Hit...this game demo is awesome and the game should be incredible. You can pick up almost anything and move or thow it around. Make sure you try some combo moves like swing lightsaber and then hit force lightning, etc. Once you go into the tie fighter hanger and kill everyone it's not over. Go to the back door and use the force to move the door locks to open the doors and continue mission. There is a room with tie fighters flying around and in that room you can actually force move some of beams to make them stick out as a way of destroying the fighters. At the beginning of the game, breaking the windows causes a vacuum that sucks some of the stuff out into space until the blast doors close it off. The longer you hold the focre button the more powerful your force push which comes in handy to force push some of the metal doors open.
Hope you all enjoy as much as I am!!!!

OK, I just downloaded it and my 7 yr old is hogging the controller so I guess I'll have to what until he goes to sleep to play it for myself. From what I see the graphics are OK.

I totally forgot about this demo but thanks to you guys I downloaded it and this game is definitely a buy for me. I have been disappointed so many times by Star wars games that I was cautiously optimistic for this one to finally redeem all the others (I did like Jedi Knight 2 however).

This game is lotsa fun, love the force powers and everything you can do. You can move, or destroy practically anything around you. By the way, the audio is really good too. When you start waving around the lightsaber it makes some nice low-bass humming sounds.

If your a fan of the franchise you should like it but even if you're not it's still loads of fun.

Can't wait for the rest of this game.

So finally after my youngest goes to bed I get the chance to play the demo and I must say that I will make this a priority must have. I had it on Sith level and had a ball deflecting laser blasts with my light saber. Throwing things once you've picked them up with your powers takes a little getting use to but that will come with more time playing the game. Does anyone know about any online features.

Holy Crap, you guys are killing me, lol. I didn't know it came out yesterday and now I'm at work. 5 and 1/2 hours and I'll be home to download it. Good to hear it's living up to expectations.
