I'm not a starwars person (nor do I understand or stay awake long enough to force myself to watch it) but I believe you guys were pretty excited about starwars 3 or something (Doshu was going crazy and some others).

Wouldn't a light saber cut right through a sword?

Ha even I knew that. There's a video (click image) and at the end Vader clash his light* saber with a dude's sword and the cliche sword face off is produced as they push against each other. So I guess light saber got nerfed

i wonder if you'll get force powers.

inc people picking vadder and yoda and just spamming lightning from accross the stage for cheap wins (kinda like link on GC version, gg graple hook and kick off the side for easy wins the entire time)
