12 Worst Star Wars Video Games

12. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

Starting with a title that had so much potential - the first game was essentially an excuse to just take a Force power dial and crank it all the way to eleven, pulling Star Destroyers out the sky in the process. It was a cool premise, and although it didn't revolutionise anything (Psi-Ops nailed the idea of telekinetically throwing people through windows in 2004), but if you didn't get a kick out of lobbing an entire TIE Fighter at a Stormtrooper, well you were playing the wrong franchise. For part two though rather than refine the controls, world physics, give you more set-pieces on the level of the aforementioned or add any new moves, essentially what came out was a glorified DLC pack. You could burn through the paltry four levels in the better part of an afternoon, and sure you can say the gameplay was still just as fun as it was in the first game, but the complete lack of innovation or even necessity for a sequel at all left an overwhelming feeling of cashing in on the fans, and that needs to be accounted for.
