From Comic-Con '08

Man, that is one crazy place to be.
So many people. I got to play some upcoming games by Lucasarts, but only for a short time.

Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels (Wii)
This game uses the cartoon-ish graphic style used in the movie, so it isn't anything to gawk over in that area. I only got to do a battle in versus mode, so I'm not sure how the game itself is - but the fight I was in was fun. Something that surprised me was that short cut-scenes drop in every so often during the fights, and little mini-game style contests happen pretty often to determine the out-come of two attacks executed at the same time. Things like those keep it lively, and the controls are fairly simple.
Until playing one-player mode I won't know if this game is worth it, or if it should just be substituted with the Force Unleashed's battle mode.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
I actually only had a matter of minutes of hands-on with this title, but I got to watch it for quite a while and I must say that it looks very promising. Unfortunately, the 360 version looks considerably better in the graphics area and a bit tighter in the action/controls, but I'm still excited for the Wii version (exclusive levels and VS. mode - oh yeah).

Hopefully we'll be able to get an in-depth preview of one of/both these games soon.
