Star Wars:  The Force Unleashed sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide in its first five days of sales across all platforms worldwide, putting it on track to be the bestselling Star Wars videogame of all time, according to LucasArts.  Over 4.3 million copies were shipped worldwide for the initial release, with more copies being manufactured and moved to market since.
