I’m not sure if you’ve realized this, but the entire crew here at 61 Frames Per Second are gigantic nerds. We’re geeks. Dweebs. Dorkwads, if you will. Yes, we’re the coolest nerds around, but that doesn’t change the facts. I might be worse than the rest of the team though.

That might imply some kind of bias towards media related to Star Wars, but I’ll tell you right now, I can be objective about Star Wars. Indeed, I’m downright distrustful of anything bearing the name. Six years of god awful movies will do that to a person. That’s why I’m hesitant to say that Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is looking downright fantastic. But just look at these screens.

More screens after the jump.
