What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $4.99. That was May 2016. 65 discounts in the 14 years on record. They run about 65 percent off, roughly 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 2 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 8 weeks.
Value puts it in the top 32 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 65 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. ENSLAVED™: Odyssey to the West™ Premium Edition ($19.99, scores 58) and Remember Me ($29.99, scores 48) both outscore it.
65 from critics against 76 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.
Players rate it 76 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 91 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 10 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 50 percent of the 927 reviews written there were positive, against 76 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.
8.1 hours to finish it, 17 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.1 times the campaign.

What players say
Despite its jankiness and bugs and glitches that can be sometimes frustrating, this game is my favourite Star Wars game of all time. The story of Vader's apprentice marking the start of the Rebel Alliance is good, the voice acting is well done, the original music is great, music from the movies are added in the appropriate places, the hack and slash gameplay is decent and the force powers, oh boy the force powers...
This is one of the BEST Star Wars games EVER MADE!!! This is one of the MANY games that captures the true essence of Star Wars. As while most disney derp wers games and media continues to fail ALL of the time.
Had this game growing up as a kid but never beat it because I got stuck on a level and now that I have finally beaten the game I can see why I couldn't as a kid. This game has honestly aged well in my opinion was half expecting it was just going to be one of the games where it's cool as a kid but not as good as you remember it. Only complaints I really have is mainly the enemy spam and the targeting system kinda...

STAR WARS™ - The Force Unleashed™ Ultimate Sith Edition scores 37/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/32430/star-wars-the-force-unleashed-ultimate-sith-editionThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Aug 3, price as of Sep 24.
