Its not like its even the first time in games, the DF/JK series has had both Ysalamir and resistant force users.

Why do I have got the feeling that this game won't live up to expectations?

Even though Thrawn discovered the ysalimiri, I have a feeling the game's going to change that to accommodate it's storyline.

Usually every Star Wars video game takes some liberties with star wars canon.

As for the TFU I was stoked after playing the demo multiple times but its starting to look like a rental now instead of day one purchase. The reviews are not kind to TFU.

Well, according to the graphic novel, the game already takes giant heaping liberties in the fact that

GIANT EFFING SPOILER AHEAD:

Vader's Secret Apprentice, whose (last?) name apparently is Starkiller, forms the Rebel Alliance.

I hope that worked... but anyway, Lucas(arts, consequently) isn't known for keeping his own continuity straight, and lets anything contradict anything, just as long as people buy it, so!

After hearing the mediocre reviews its getting, I am cool with having read the graphic novel, I might buy it too, it was actually pretty good.

Yeah, I read that in the novel.

My only real reason to play the game now is to see how the story differs when you keep on the darkside path.

Thanks to Iron Spidey for slaying what little interest I had in checking out any version of this, I probably would have put my controller/book througth my TV/Window if I had spent time and money finding that out.

Dark Horse is the only thing stopping me from nailing the lid shut on the EU, any hope I had for the recovery of the gaming franchise after ROTS is rapidly fading and I can't imagine that Del Ray is going to pack in printing pointless post-NJO novels now that they've just had thier licence renewed.

I downloaded the demo last night and I have to say is that I am sold. This game looks to be possibly as much fun as God of War (my all-time next-gen favorite). I was a little skeptical going in after reading these posts, but I plan on getting my butt to TRU first thing tomorrow to get that $20 gift card. I'm really very excited for this game.
My pretty cool collection, if I do say so myself.
