I know right? I found myself reciting lines of dialogue from memory in the build-up to that part. Sure, the subtitles were there, but these lines were imprinted on me as a child. I even recited them when I reached certain moments in the second level ("I WANT MY MONEY BAAACK!").
4:21 On the PS2 version, instead of cycling through using the circle button to get to the scanner, you could just press up on the d-pad to jump to it and then press down on the d-pad to return to whatever weapon/tool you previously had selected. Instant switching between scanner and blasters. You can even see it on the Legacy control scheme at the time stamp
Yeah, I honestly just used Legacy cuz that's what I'm used to. I don't play a ton of modern games anyways, cuz a lot of modern games just suck ass. All flash and no substance. That's why the Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor games took me by surprise; they have issues, but they're solid. Regarding the flashlight, there are absolutely still dark areas in the game. I used it A LOT on Kohlma to navigate corridors; otherwise the Gora just pop out of the darkness.
I am SO glad to hear about the fixes to the controls and camera. Replaying the ps2 port a while back, those two things drove me crazy. I’ll be picking this up at some point.
After beating the first chapter... This is honestly a truly solid remaster of what is ultimately my childhood Star Wars game. The modern control scheme works like a charm, the graphics still look timeless, and overall, this version of Bounty Hunter plays out like the game you think you played back in 2002, and then some. And as a Prequel Convert whose favourite entry in the saga is Attack of the Clones (deal with it), the story, characters and lore still holds up as a solid prologue and companion piece to that film, fleshing out Clones' secondary villain Jango Fett with style and extremely quotable dialogue. This is yet another reason why 2024 is a good year for Star Wars (GOOD, not "great", the one-two punch of the Battlefront Collection and The Acolyte are massive drawbacks this year), and I'll happily continue through Jango's mission to apprehend Komari Vosa on my Xbox Series X. £15 British pounds well spent.
The control scheme makes things much easier yes. I only died twice during Jungle Trek (previously I'd either finish with 1 continue or fail altogether). Amazing what a simple change can do!
I remember following the paperback “strategy guide” to this game to find all the bounties. There were no UA-cam walkthroughs available in 2002 🤣 Great memories!
My parents got me this game as a kid, I loved it so much, but I never finished it because all of the bando gora enemies in the final chapter terrified me I remember replaying up to that point over and over and over again. Replaying my favorite missions like the first and third coruscant missions, the prison break, Longo Two-Gun is chefs kiss. And now I finally get to go back and finish this game. This game is up there with republic commando and the revenge of the sith games for me
@@demonic_myst4503 PLEASE, you, and EVERYONE, if you haven't already, embrace the One True Only God YHWH Jehovah, Only One Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son and Lord and Savior of our souls and the Only One Holy Spirit. God is good. God is love. Jesus is Lord. Jesus IS coming. Your soul depends on it! I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died. God worked through Jesus Christ to save our souls. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him. Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible. The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil". LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
@@Walamonga1313 Did the ps2/Wii version have those awesome Euphoria physics? If not, then no, they aren't better. The Euphoria physics made the gameplay so fun and unique.
The cats are the worst part of that level hahaha. You have to try and missile or pseudo snipe them from a distance; otherwise they're the hardest enemy in the game.
TBH Im glad there going through the back catalouge for games and redoing them, with that said they have to at least as good as the original. Cough BF2. Please do rebel strike and rouge leader. Those are the ones that are the most desperate to do!
Great review as always - just a tip on the audio for anyone reading. You can go into the options and manually adjust the different volume sliders. Sfx and voice are default at medium so would recommend cranking them up. With regards to the adaptive trigger, you can feel them now with the kamino saber darts, heavy gun, blaster rifle, grenades etc. Pretty much everythng except the westar blasters
So excited to finally finish this game lolol. Between the difficulty spikes and the wack controls i never was able to be beat this game despite loving it.
One thing I noticed is that the bonus menu, instead of "dark horse comic book" it's renamed to "marvel comic book" kinda messed up to snub the original comic producers
I absolutely love this game when I was a kid.Basically, it was one of my Second favorite Stars game of all time and frankly, I had a really fun with it. The game was really fun and stuff like that. I would always mess around and just kill like anything that moves in the city level. When I was a kid, I always laugh. Honestly, I always get in trouble. A little bit and honestly I had a little fun playing it. However, I got stuck in a level in the jungle area. I don't know what to do and I haven't played it in a long time though I am really looking forward to planning it again
I'd say this story, like KOTOR, is just canon enough to fit into the Disney-era timeline. At the very least it's really cool to hear Temuera Morrison voice Jango for an extended period of time.
My dad made me take this game back because it was “too violent” 😂 it was likely because I’d spend most of my time just lighting people on fire with the flame thrower.
Holy moly, the original controls I remember something fierce the Mandalorian rage in put me in, it's so good after all these years later to have tidy'd up and refined controls it's feels so much more smoother than the OG, it plays sooo much better, I was obsessed with the game as a youngin but never finished it because of its irksome controls and camera system that gave me awful vertigo, this newly touched up version version tho is most excellent another patch couldn't hurt tho to just tidy it up just a tad little more, but I'm very impressed with this, and now I'm playing it again after all these years, the obsession is back in full force, and now I can't help with the new Unreal 5.4 slowly being used just imagining what bounty hunter would look like using that, oh boy, that would look supremely phenomenal, I'd love someone just to experiment with that just to see how incredible that would look, I'd lose my dang mind witnessing that, great review you've done very on point with everything you've said, you take care man look forward to the next vid you do, love your work 👍
I know it’s random and unrelated to Star Wars but I need you to do a video on Radiata Stories and dot hack so we can get remasters of those most underrated jrpgs
Replayed the PS4 a few years ago and was stoked that it was just as good as I remembered it. Tough as nails near the end but the tone is so perfect. Happy to hear they modernized it a bit more. Dude Lucas Arts was cooking with these SW games in the 2000s… I’m grateful that they’re being preserved like this, even if they’re not perfect remasters. The Force Unleashed and KOTOR games have got to be next for the PS5/XS… fingers crossed!
@@megaman37456 I know man. I played and finished the game when I was 12 years old and I consider myself far from the most skilled gamer. Sure, there were difficult parts that took me several tries but it's weird that in an age where gamers complain that games are too easy even on the hardest difficulty that a game being challenging is an issue now.
Imagine a Star Wars game like Bounty Hunter only much more expansive and explorable and had things like the nemesis system from the Middle-Earth games implemented in it. That would be a dream.
Thanks for reviewing this 🙏🏻 i have the ps4 version too and was contemplating whether it was worth the upgrade. But wow Aspyr COOKED with this one. Updated controls and Slomo view for bountys is everything i couldve wanted for this game. Its a shame the original release was so clunky
Cool that it sounds like its good. I am still going to look at other reviews too because I hate to say I am very skeptical of Aspyr. It wasn't just the Battlefront Collection like a lot fo people think. Almost every single Star Wars game they have done has problems ranging from minor issues, to cut content to gamebreaking and progress halting bugs. To be honest as much as I liked the game I think its very diffcult game bordering on frustrating so I don't know if I want to go through that again. The 5 lives system and then having to restart the level honestly sucks
Man I wish they would have gotten rid of the 5 lives system. They made quality of life adjustments like controls, a flashlight and slowing down time in the scanner but kept that archaic continue system. Should have had a casual mode or toggle for infinite continues at a checkpoint. Not gonna hold out hope but would be nice in a update. Still cool that Aspyr made a good port with some graphical upgrades. Most of their Star Wars ports have had issues ranging from minor, cut content, gamebreaking bugs and in Battlefront Collection game a complete mess.
if they do the Rogue Squadron trilogy i'll actually pass out.... they need to do it, those games need so much love!!! (actually make it a quadrilogy, Battle for Naboo also needs to be there)
"Animations were ahead of it's time" What? Games that also came out in 2002: Soul Calibur 2, Metroid Prime, Dark Cloud 2, Gun Valkyrie, Wind Waker, need I say more? MGS2 came out in 2001. Bounty Hunter's animations felt robotic in comparison.
Combat animations, and the complicated cool action hero moves. All those games attack animations are WAAAAYYYYYY behind the modern look of Bounty Hunter's crazy cool Kung Fu style flips and gunplay.
Im just waiting for SW Starfighter now. That was the 1st videogame I ever played. Seems most all the SW PS2 games are getting this treatment. Just need Starfighter & Clone Wars. Still love the whole story of Anakinndefeating the Dark Reaper
I'm digging the first game but it definitely shows it's age in a few areas. Namely the controls being set up inconveniently. 3rd person shooters back then gameplay wise had issues. Something like gears of war I can easily utilize every single weapon effectively. But with bounty hunter I can really only utilize two weapons. It's still a good game and the story is like something Garth Ennis would have wrote but the gameplay has some issues. I like the idea of the bounty posting system but that would probably be better utilized with an open world system. The problem with bounty hunter is that I'm supposed to check the bounty listings in the middle of a blaster shootout?
Adore this remaster honestly. I didn't have a problem with the mashing of buttons in the original. Wasn't an issue. Lol. Don't understand that complaint. But this remaster is pretty awesome.
Holding the button is nice and all but it only shoots so fast. Sometimes you gotta mash that button, and having to mash your finger instead of your thumb feels so much worse than smashing your thumb. My finger feels super strained. But the one thing I don't see anyone talking about is that the modern control scheme takes away the ability to flip jump and strafe unless you are locked onto enemies. Flip jumping was a vital means to survival as it helped deflect damage off you. With the modern controls now you MUST be locked on to do so. I don't have very many gripes at all with the remaster I think it's amazing and I've already beaten the game, but certain nuances with it has me staying in legacy control scheme
Thanks for the review! I was waiting to hear that it wasn't a broken mess like Battlefront. This and Pod Racing were my favorite Star Wars games back in the day.
Bought it to play on my Series X... It hard crashed to the dashboard while loading the third mission. 🤦 I just don't understand how remasters like this can still be released in a state like that.
Considering this one didn't have a PC port it meant they had to put in more effort then putting up a new steam page and ctrl c & v Still not a good remaster but its better then nothing
No way to use both triggers to fire blasters? That would be better haha the speed would melt enemies like arc trooper from battlefront EA before the patch
Just booted the remaster up, got hit with a wave of nostalgia and man its so good. I like the new controls but the camera really can still be fucked lmao.

Call yet tendo switch I want that game
I'd love to see a remake/remaster of the episode 3 game.
Yes. This.
And the Obi-Wan game
If you have any xbox one it looks great
I'd love that
Hopefully that will be their next game.
the opening mission with the arena brings me back man. this game was everything.
I know right? I found myself reciting lines of dialogue from memory in the build-up to that part. Sure, the subtitles were there, but these lines were imprinted on me as a child. I even recited them when I reached certain moments in the second level ("I WANT MY MONEY BAAACK!").

Except it doesn't fit with how Jango meets Dooku.
Great review! I loved this game when I was kid and can't wait to play the remastered version.
This looks absolutely awesome, man. The trailers didn’t call me as I own the original but the gameplay here really sold me as a must get this year
Favorite Star Wars game of all time 🔥💯
Fixing the inverted controls is the biggest plus for me. Those inverted controls on the original made the game unnecessarily difficult.

My only wish when I heard about the remaster was a retooling of scanning bounties. Definitely getting this now.
I would love to see a remaster of Rogue Squadron II and III. I think they still hold up pretty well today and they would look BEAUTIFUL in HD.
I'm older than you and I've always loved pounding on the square button in this game. Very satisfying!!

Glad to see the camera was fixed. So many good games become average games because of bad camera or controls.
I am confused about which one to buy. Limited Run released it as well. So is this the 2nd Aspyr version?
I'm really hoping Aspyr does a Revenge of the Sith port next :)
If only the physical wasn't a Limited Run 😢
I remember you could just hold square. Does memory serve me right?
Will 100% pick this up if they release it physical, Id even sell my gamecube copy

You can still roll and the modern scheme lets you take cover. But yeah i dont see why we cant flip jump or use the jetpack. Looks cooler that way
Aspyr seems to be so so with single player games just not so decent at MP ones
Any physical copies?
Thanks for the review! I was waiting to hear that it wasn't a broken mess like Battlefront. This and Pod Racing were my favorite Star Wars games back in the day.
I bought it for the switch and it's even good there
did they get rid of that 5 life system?
In theory the audio issues shouldn’t be present in Xbox and PC right?
Bought it to play on my Series X... It hard crashed to the dashboard while loading the third mission. 🤦 I just don't understand how remasters like this can still be released in a state like that.
Considering this one didn't have a PC port it meant they had to put in more effort then putting up a new steam page and ctrl c & v Still not a good remaster but its better then nothing
How so? They fixed the control and camar issues
No way to use both triggers to fire blasters? That would be better haha the speed would melt enemies like arc trooper from battlefront EA before the patch
Roz’s voice lines during gameplay are missing for me on ps5
Is this the version that's on ps plus?
No, that's just a upscaled port of the original PS2 version. This is a remastered version with better controls and various tweaks.
Hope it gets a physical release wanna buy it for my son to enjoy as I did as a 6th grader.
I neeeeed this now!!!! So awesome!!!!
Is there some legal reasons why KOTOR 1&2 aren't on the ps store?
No idea, you could still pick up kotor 1 and 2 on the xbox 360 store until the shutdown this week so I dunno
Even with the new controls, i am still mashing the buttons lmao
That's a lot of necklaces Matty
Just booted the remaster up, got hit with a wave of nostalgia and man its so good. I like the new controls but the camera really can still be fucked lmao.
I hope we see Star Wars dark forces 2 that’s the one I grew up with playing never finished it
Installing now, but im seeing alot of people having crashing issues on level 2. Anyone else having tgat?
Prison break is still bloody hard to get through
Do we know if they included the old school comics in the game like they were in the PS2 version?
Ah man asking the right questions
Did they fix the save points is another question
Is this any different than the ps4 version?
My only disappointment with the game is that they didn’t include a save game system and it still runs on the old check point system
