Joystiq tries The Force Unleashed on PSP

We're pretty psyched for the PSP version of The Force Unleashed. Why? Well, it looks gorgeous. It also adds tons of PSP-exclusive features, like historical missions. You'll be able to recreate the epic battle between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker in Episode V exclusively on PSP, for example. The lack of a second analog stick, according to Joystiq doesn't appear to hinder the game at all. "The PSP game still moved smoothly, and the automatic camera tracked from behind my character, usually providing an effective view of what I needed. In both versions, I felt in control of my aim, throwing the light saber at enemies, or launching other attacks from a distance."

Joystiq has a few new images of the PSP version in action in their gallery:

I hear the Hellboy game is horrible, so I'm hoping Krome Studios spent a bit more time with this one? We'll see.
