If you don't feel like watching an awesome, six-and-a-half minute long tech demo of the physics engines featured in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, allow us to briefly summarize the above video -- things are going to move around very fancily in this game. With the Havok engine controlling the movement of objects, the DMM engine regulating what objects are made from what substances, and the Euphoria engine deciding how enemies react to their environment, the game appears to push the boundaries of physics in gaming. Now we just have to wait until its summer release date to find out whether or not the rest of the game is absolute schlock.

Cool thing is, I didnt really care about the games for it. But after getting a 1920x1080 Sony Bravia 46XBR4 TV and wanting a good Blu Ray player to truly get the full effect. I couldn't help but learn the PS3 is the absolute BEST blu-ray player on the market at equevelant cost & with all the other great perks it has like wireless internet, Media Extender from the PC to the TV, and constant firmware upgrades to stay at peak performance. Then we have the games too. And I for one am glad now with such as Force Unleashed coming out. Its all gravy!
I got a refurb 60GB PS3 for $400 which I wanted for the full PS2 compatibility.
