What works at a distance, does start to go a bit wrong up close. While it works most of the time, this latter option proved frustratingly hit and miss on occasion - with objects flying off in anything but the direction intended, seemingly locked-on to an enemy elsewhere in the area.
You can either set it down gently by releasing the trigger, or point in the desired direction and release to fling it. Then it's the left stick to move the object backwards and forwards, and the right stick for up and down. The controls are mostly slick: you grab on to a locked-on item using the right trigger on 360 (the version reviewed here). And there is something indescribably wonderful about plucking a soaring TIE Fighter out of the sky and dragging it to its destruction.
But there are few things as pleasing as grabbing a Wookiee or a Stormtrooper and swishing them around in mid-air as their limbs flail wildly, before either shooting them skywards, into each other, or frying them with Force lightning before smashing them into the ground. With Force Grip, your projectiles can range from small crates, rocks and droids to huge boulders, large structures, and great chunks of vegetation.
