head to head
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.

A classic side-scrolling brawler focused on tight combat execution.

Execution · Pure Mechanics
Forgiving spectacle combat that lightly tests combo execution.
Final Fight 3 leans Execution (Pure Mechanics); Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II leans Execution (Pure Mechanics).

Final Fight 3
beat-em-up combo and dodge execution
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Final Fight 3
enemies use fixed scripted aggression
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Stormtroopers follow simple fixed scripts
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Final Fight 3
minor enemy spawn randomness
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Encounters are scripted and identical every run
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

character choice and combo-route optimization
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
