Last week, Assistant Producer Brett Rector talked to StarWars.com’s Pablo Hidalgo about Star Wars: The Force Unleashed on the official Star Wars website’s first ever podcast (although you can only download the content, with no subscription options, ironically) found here. As with Rector’s weekly production diaries, this is exclusive content found first at the StarWars.com family of websites, including www.lucasarts.com and www.theforceunleashed.com.
