Jesus, I don't know where to begin with this one. Guess we'll start with some dirty jokes about playing The Force Unleashed II last night:
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Oh, oh... here come's the end boss fight!
ME: Already?
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II (embarrassed): Uh, is that OK?
ME: We just got started...
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Yeah, but you've been playing me awful hard.
ME: It hasn't even been five hours yet.
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Well, I'm not going to last much longer. Maybe we could take a break? You know, watch a Star Wars movie? Keep you in the mood...
ME: Oh, just finish...
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Oh... OK... OK... and... you... WIN!!! ACHIEVEMENTS! END CREDITS! Wait... where are you going?
ME: To the bathroom.
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Why?
ME : To satisfy my own gaming needs.
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Oh, OK... Wait -- is that a PSP in your hand?
ME: Is that a problem?
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Well, it's just... you know... I thought I was enough for you.
ME: I got to go.
THE FORCE UNLEASHED II: Wait, can I watch!

The Force Unleashed II is inexcusably short. I don't like it, but I'm beginning to accept five-hour campaigns in action games... if they have multiplayer, which Unleashed II does not. This game barely justifies the price of a rental.
Seriously, LucasArts, you had two years to make this sequel. This is all you could come up with? Even worse: the game's obviously padded to get to five hours. It's over before you know it, and it's going to leave you unsatisfied.
