Over on All About N-Gage, resident gaming Jedi Ewan Spence has put Star Wars: The Force Unleashed through its paces on the N-Gage platform, including the innovative "cellweaver" control system designed specially for mobile phones. Is the force with this game, or is it just a pile of bantha fodder? Read the review to find out...
Read on in the full article.
I think Ewan's brought up a good point in the review, that mobile games do best when they take a totally different approach to console/computer games.
The best game designers get the most out of a platform by writing for it specifically, and being aware of all its abilities and restrictions.
Phones aren't mini-consoles, they're phones, and the best phone games are designed specially for phones.
I would like to ask about the game's length. From what I've read on the web many complain about iPhone's version shortness. The N-Gage version was developed by the same developer and looks pretty much the same, except a keypad instead of touch controls. How many levels are there in the N-Gage version? I've read the iPhone one has only 6.

I've finished the game on the easy level.
You could say that the N-gage version have 6 levels if you include the tutorial as one. That is the game itself contains a total of 5 chapters.
Besides that you have the Survival and battle mode in which is for earning points and sending scores to the N-gage Arena.
Currently I'm trying to play through it on the Normal mode which was a bit harder. I don't know if you get any bonus levels if you complete the game i Normal or Hard mode, but I doubt it.
I can't comment on the game's length, but if you want a game to last a long time you probably shouldn't be playing it all the way through on the easiest setting.
The point of difficulty settings is to choose the kind of game you want. The easiest setting on any title (especially with phone games) is meant for casual gamers who don't want any kind of long term challenge.
1. The soundtrack is not good enough. I have also bought the game for my Wii too. The Wii version has a really good soundtrack which is comparable to Star Wars films soundtracks. I don't know why they shouldn't add the existing soundtrack to the n-gage game. It shouldn't cost any extra money for making music. I know it would make the game size larger but people don't care the game size is is 16 mg or 25 mg. They can down
load it in pc or with wi-fi.
2. It is really great that developers are making their "big games" for n-gage. The game is available for every platform possible, AND N-Gage. (there's is also a java one which sucks) It makes developers think about making their next "big title" available for N-Gage too.
Sorry Evan and Krisse.....but what about the dark knight and speed racer ngage games ?
I thought that they were "coming soon"?
Those movie were on theaters some mouths ago.the awsome dark knight (the second blockbuster movie of all time after Titanic) is still on theaters but........you know what i'm about to say....and unfortunaly i know that even you guys don't know the answer of my question.
I don't know.... If nokia continue this way i don't think ngage will make it even this time.
What do you think ?

Dark Knight was never anounced as coming out to coincide with movie when Nokia announced it they said it would be released Autumn so there's plenty for them to keep that promise
i ain't got a clue about speed racer though it as suddenly all gone silent about that game i've heard nothing for ages now
