Well, folks, we finally have a date for when the gates to a paradise of exploiting Force powers in a video game will open: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will release on September 16th in North America. Hot on the heels of yesterday's big reveal on the Wii version of the game, you can imagine we're pretty pumped for this. September? Can't get here soon enough.

But, wait, there's more. While those of us in North America are getting the game on September 16th, it will arrive in Southeast Asia and Australia on September 17th and release in Europe on September 19th. Pretty sweet, eh? For once, you don't have to wait a ridiculously long time for something.

Hell, if the graphics, story and gameplay are anywhere near as solid and fun as Jedi Knight 2:Jedi Outcast, with some well implemented wiimote-lightsaber action carefully added, this game will be nothing short of epic. Here's to hoping for a real game and not another half-baked port.
