Not sure how I feel about this. Why wouldn't he mention Galen to Luke? | |
God, I love this game's storyline. There are so many tales of a Light Jedi falling to the dark side, but of a Dark Jedi turning his back on evil, not enough there are. Interesting story concept, redemption is, hmmmmm? | |
Badass, Yoda is. | |
Try to cameo not. Cameo, or do not. There is no try. Yoda is good at cameos, hm, yes? A-he-he-he-he! Ah, I love the quiet "Force" theme. Also, nice graphical update since the last game. I expected no less, of course, but it's good to see Yoda again. And I think he may look better than the prequel CGI model.
In my theater, there was cheering during Episode II when we heard the sound of his cane tapping on the ground as he approached to fight Dooku. He hadn't even shown up on screen yet, and people knew that awesome was coming. Probably because of the advertising campaign (another example of Yoda doing something cool that might have been better of not told? Perhaps), but Yoda was still awesome. Glowing dancing windmill on acid for the win! A phrase I will never use again. | |
Part wants to geek out over this game, but I`m still bitter over the disappointment of the first game. | |
Great; now I have this image in my head of an epic battle between Yoda and Doomsday*. BTW, Yoda would win. (*The actor who lent his face and voice for Starkiller is the same actor who played as the human form of Doomsday in Smallville. Which, season 8 ended horribly, by the way.) | |
They have a second one come out? | |
First thing I thought too. This is gonna open up some plot holes... | |
Yeah but apparently Vader cloned him. The opening sequence is on Kamino or some similar planet. *Hugs X360 Magazine Already read it, I have. Good News it is. Is it not? | |
Well I liked the first one so they don't really need trailers to influence me. | |
no no no no NO! There are so many untapped cool stuff in the star wars universe. Why do they have to rehash old characters and old locations from the first movies? Yes those were the best but come on! There has got to be one creative mind left at Lucas Arts! Seriously? why did they have to bring Yoda into this? | |
"You know what i seek?" OT: well im not suprised but i thought that mabye yoda was the aprentices failed assassiantion attempts. | |
Cue the angry star wars nerds complaining that this somehow interferes with old canon. But I enjoyed the first one, and this one is looking... Shinier, so I definitely plan on trying it out. | |
Um.......i dont think FU2 is canon... | |
In 3...2...1...NOW!
I'm gonna assume Galen is the main character, so I have to ask: Why would Yoda mention him to Luke? What's he supposed to say? "Hey, by the way, some douche I'd never seen before came by here like, a decade ago. He walked right by and I never saw him again. What's that? Well, yeah, I guess it's not important now, but it was really weird at the time. OK, back to the force training!" This is just like the people complaining that the Collectors were never mentioned in ME1. There was no REASON for them to be mentioned! | |
Great they put yoda in. Loved the first game. | |

Great they put yoda in. Loved the first game. | |
And when the credits roll 3 hours in, we can all be glad there was a yoda cameo... | |
didnt starkiller die in the first one? | |
I'm not even a "Star Wars nerd," I just like my canon to be in order. So | |
Hey, I didn't call you a Star Wars nerd, that was the other guy. I simply implied it. *Homer Simpson voice* I HAVE SPOKEN! | |
Eh it shouldn't be too bad as long as they don't go to far out with walk in's and all that | |
Eh. A good part to this that I can see is a continuation of the Dark Side DLC from the first game. That would be interesting. The Ultimate Evil Apprentice against Yoda... It'd be interesting to see who would win. | |
Yoda is awsome, nuff said. | |
It's canon, George Lucas himself is like overseeing/directing it. | |
And that is why it's going to be filled with such blatant and pointless fan service as Yoda. I expect a toy line based on the game to come out soon. I expect Boba Fett to be involved in at least two scenes mugging to the camera with a nudge nudge wink wink. | |
Virtually everything related to Star Wars is considered canon. There are very few exceptions. The goddamn Holiday Special is canon. | |
With an acronym like that... | |
Buy this game I will, Mind trick in advertising. Affected me, it has. | |
Actually, I'm pretty sure George Lucas has done all in his power to erase that from the Star Wars canon. | |
Well, I'm glad about one thing. THERE'S GONNA BE A PC VERSION!! | |
The trailers show that Vader cloned him. But he's not really dead, in the Tatooine DLC you kill Obi-Wan and then you have to fight his force spirit. What I like best is dual lightsaber combat, never gets old. | |

Yoda Shows His Wrinkly Face in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2
Yoda unfortunately can't appear in every piece of Star Wars media, but he will make an appearance in The Force Unleashed 2.
The shortest Jedi known to the Star Wars universe has been confirmed to have a part in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2. Talking about Yoda, I am. I promise, that's the only time I'll do that. Must... resist... Yoda talk.
LucasArts announced Yoda's cameo to coincide with the Star Wars Celebration V convention and the 30th anniversary of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. When Force Unleashed's main character Starkiller escapes from Darth Vader, he senses a powerful presence on planet Dagobah. The powerful, robed green-ish one is waiting there and guides Starkiller into the Dark Side-tainted "Cave of Evils," where Luke Skywalker defeated an illusion of Darth Vader in Empire Strikes Back.
What Starkiller finds inside, nobody knows, but Yoda says: "That what you seek, inside, you will find." The Cave of Evils could be a huge turning point for Starkiller in the game. It's also unknown if Yoda makes only this short cameo or has a bigger part.
I'm glad to know Yoda makes an appearance in Force Unleashed 2, but this would have been a really cool surprise to have left secret. I suppose PR folks have to promote their games somehow, even if it means revealing key moments. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 will be released across all systems console and handheld on October 26, 2010 (October 29 in Europe).
