This entry in the Star Wars saga casts players as Darth Vader's "Secret Apprentice," unveiling new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas, is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will assist the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi - and face decisions that could change the course of their destiny. As its name implies, The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force by taking full advantage of newly developed technologies that will be seen and experienced for the first time anywhere in videogaming.

Take over where Episode II ends during the epic Clone Wars and lead the Republic Army as Anakin Skywalker, Mace Windu or Obi-Wan Kenobi. Your directive: stop the Separatists from reassembling an ancient Sith weapon of mass annihilation! Gamers will be able to undertake missions ranging from intense close-combat engagements to enormous large-scale battles.

Twenty years after Alien Syndrome first slithered into arcades, Sega's coin-op classic gets a modern-day makeover with Alien Syndrome on Wii. The Wii version is played from an overhead perspective like the original, but this time in full 3-D with 15 levels of laser-blasting, grenade-launching action. In a story line inspired by the Alien film series, Alien Syndrome has players guiding a gun-toting female officer named Aileen Harding as she investigates a derelict space station overrun by foul creatures. Players will control Aileen with the analog stick and aim by pointing the Wii Remote at the screen, manipulating a targeting cursor independently of Aileen's movements.

In addition, the game contains new story lines and environments that moviegoers will not see in the theater.
