But reading about game and it says Leia is important part of game then how old is Leia? She was 18ish when New Hope Started.....so he was 39-40 during New Hope....So Im going to Say Middle Late 30s.........

Well it a takes place between Ep III and Ep IV so I say it’s safe to say around his mid 20’s.

There is an 18 year gap in between III and IV, so anywhere between 23 to 41. And judging from the images of Leia from the game, I'm guessing late 30's.

Keep in mind, there is a massive inconsistency in the timeline for the series. Look at how old he is in Jedi when he is unmasked. Doesn't add up. And everyone can say the whole "dark side of the force aged him faster" or whatever, but Obi-Wan is older than he should be as well.

He looked in his 50s which is right where he would be.....I mean we dont know what 30 yrs under MASK would do to the face.....or how much the Darkside corrupted his looks.......and Im sure a Lava Bath would do some damage also....to mask how old you really are.......many Factors......

well i think Obi wan is supposed to be about 25 in Episode 1,then theres the 10 year gap,and in episode 2 hed be 35,then after the 3/4 year gap betwenn 2 and 3 hes pushing 40....so 18 years after that-plus having seen the life and living in a craphole like tatooine Id say he looks about right in episode 4

He has to be older than that id Leia is a big part.....she couldnt be younger than 16 so he would have to be in the 40s......Maybe at the start of the game when he finds Starkiller as a boy....he is in his 30s....

Well at least we can agree that his arms and legs are much younger.

remeber most of what you see is what was healed from him being barbecued

I think Vader was a little older - more like late 40's. Here's my timeline... Luke was in his "going away to college" years trying to leave the farm in A New Hope. So he had to be about 20 (Being delayed a couple years by Owen). So Leah also being 20'ish. Then Empire strikes Back put luke about 23-24. ROTJ put Luke about 27-28 (though he looked way older) so if Vader was about 22 when they were born that would put VADER at around 50 at the end of ROTJ. This would make him late 40's for Force Unleashed. SO I say 47...

Luke and Leia were both 19 at the start of A New Hope......

Anakin was about 19 I think during Episode II, then 22 in Episode 3. From what I read there will be skips in time during the Force Unleashed, so he'll be between 22 and 40 years old throughout the game.
