The Force Unleashed selling point #17: Play as Darth Vader!

In our long years of outrageously nerdy existence, we've never been able to truly emulate the lifestyle of Mr. Darth Vader, feared Lord of the Sith and champion emperor tosser. The costume's the easy part, but if all you have to do in your intimidating black cape is mull about the grocery store, it's clear that there's something missing from the experience. Like choking people from afar.

Incidentally, you'll be able to do that in September's Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. The game's opening moments see you taking control of Darth Vader and wreaking havoc, shortly before encountering your "secret apprentice." If that isn't enough to excite you, perhaps a long string of hip and happenin' youth buzzwords from project lead Haden Blackman will do: "[The Force Unleashed] means you have access to force powers that are amped up, over the top and in some cases, totally out of control."

Wait a minute... there are cases where force powers are, in fact, somewhat in control? So much for selling point #16.
