Neglected Side of the Force

I know Star Wars The Force Unleashed 2 (FU2 lol) isn't new news but it has just come to my attention that there is also a Wii version of this game. I played the PSP version of Force Unleashed which was a port of the PS2 version and is exactly the same as the Wii version aside from controls. Chrome studio did a great job with the lesser versions of the Force Unleashed but this iteration of the FU2 looks to be better.

I'm talking about storm trooper limbs flying off bodies, and this is a Wii game! Of course they're going to integrate Star Killer's moves into motion controls, luckily the light saber combos are button based.

To set this game apart from the PS3 and 360 versions, they gave Star Killer some pointer based moves, those moves being his Jedi mind trick is now pointer based so I'm guessing it's easier to mind trick troopers and since you aim manually there's a depth of strategy. Another move is something they're calling "Force Rage" which is basically a Jedi's equivalent of Red Dead Redemption's / Revolver's "Dead Eye" in which you go into bullet time and aim at multiple targets and Star Killer starts warping to each target and taking them out with a powerful strike.

The 4 player mode looks to be some soft of a Smash Bros. clone which I am very curious to try seeing as Smash Bros. is one of my favorite franchises of all time. I will be going into this game with a very positive attitude and I hope it doesn't disappoint.
