For people who've seen TFUII E3 trailer, do you notice what he does to that giant droid who fires...whatever it fires at him? Stops it with one hand. I noticed a similar technique used by the female Jedi in the latest TOR cinematic trailer, where she stops a Sith's lightsaber with her hand...
Is this supposed to be a variation on whatever Force power Vodo-Siosk Baas and Yoda use, or something? I've never seen it before, and I find it pretty stupid. Almost as stupid as the premise for TFUII...I mean, the first story ends with him supposedly dying, yes? Him being turned into part machine and surviving was the non-canon storyline, wasn't it?
I'm not following you guys with the ridiculous force powers thing. It seems that some of you have forgotten that Anakin is the by-product of a one-night stand between the force and a slave girl. If the force is powerful enough to bring a bitter old woman to orgasm, deflecting a missile or two doesn't seem too far fetched.
Though, frankly, the force could do with some better standards. ermm

Nah, I don't mind this, actually. At all. And I tell you why....Spoiler:
It allows for a one-hit-wonder superman who must be rendered inoperable before the events of the original trilogy. That means, for as badass as he is, Marek is limited and cannot reach the heights of Gary Stu levels.
I don't even understand why this storyline was needed so close to the Galactic Civil War. The whole TFU stuff is retarded.
I really doubt Lucas would ever drastically change the Classic Trilogy mythos that would severely contradict or completely refute any of the movies. If he did, he should be arrested.
Either way, the movies are the highest level of canon, and they trump the games, comics, novels and everything that comes after movies (not sure about the original screenplays though). So if you are really concerned about Galen being more powerful than every other Jedi, you can just choose to ignore it.
I would just buy TFU and enjoy it for the gameplay. The plot and storyline aside, the special effects and Force powers are incredibly fun.
