My copy of The Force Unleashed showed up Tuesday! Unfortunately physics homework had to come first. In the end I only popped in long enough to check out the opening cinematic. The apparent consensus among people who enjoy "Star Wars" is that while the quality of the gameplay itself is up for argument the story should not be missed. Tycho said it best with "And if you can find someone else to play the game while you watch, you might be approaching the optimal scenario." .That said, my plan is to play out the entire story when Em is around. I anticipate that she'll play whenever the levels aren't too challenging, and I'll help her out as much as she wants. As much as I'd love to just power though huge chunks of the game whenever I have time, I think the benefit of experiencing yet another Star Wars story together with Em will more than make up for that. I took Em to see The Phantom Menace in theaters when she was 3 years old, like my father (before me) who took me to see A New Hope when I was 3. I'm not sure how well (or if) Em really remembers that theater trip at 3 years old. For myself I have to admit I only clearly remember the irony of eating "STAR BURSTS" candy while watching "STAR WARS", and the theater had dark red carpet...

So does that mean that you need someone to come over and play for you . . . . because I am now available
for certain... Em and I are planning on playing a LOT of this over the weekend. You are (of course) welcome to come join in the festivities.
