Worst thing about Yoda is even if you do get a critical finish on him you don't get to see your special move. His model is too small so your character just does one of their normal attacks. Even killing the little bitch is unsatisfying.
2021 and this game still looks pretty good. A few days ago i went back and played some Tekken 5 in the ps2 and that still holds up visually, Namco REALLY knows what they're doing when it comes to visuals
Josh Hall We really need a force Unleashed 3 but they need to stop dicking around and make it awesome. The first is pretty good but two is just terrible. It looks really great visually but it is so incredibly boring. The one thing they got right is being able to dismember stormtroopers which is cool, but that's about the only thing they got right. Wielding two lightsabers is also cool but you literally have the exact same moves from the first game, they just look different with two sabers instead of one and are way more fluid. They even have the same damn names for crying out loud. If that doesn't scream rip off then I don't know what does. Not to mention you see two instances of Boba Fett but never fight him or anything like that so it's nothing but a massive tease and it really upsets you that's it's just thrown in there that with really no purpose to serve.
A lot of things were approved as canon by Lucas prior to acquisition, too bad that counts for nothing now. Personally I never liked Starkiller as he was way too OP.
Steven Clark In the movies, they say the Force is something really powerful so it feel so good to play a character that does way more than telekinesis and using lightning. The dude made a destroyer crash by just waving his hands.
Um I think the narrator is going to be disappointed, last time Vader was tasked with bringing balance to anything, he tried to kill his best friend and choked out his wife.
would love to see them use the soul calibur engine and make a fighting game where each jedi/sith has their own unique fighting/saber style. maybe even have a create a character so you can make your own OC to go through a Star Wars side story.
That was the best way to beat him by baiting him to the edge of the ring he would eventually jump out XD Or us Vader's throw and chuck him out of course.
lowrider6217 I wish the same thing! A port wouldn’t be so bad though. With all the dlc added as Namco Bandai decided to remove the game, and its respective dlc from the online marketplace. EDIT: It seems like next year would be the perfect opportunity to rerelease it actually as it will be the 10th anniversary of the game’s release.
The apprentice still scares me to this date, the longer you fight him it really feels like the more he learns, and the harder it is to kill, he should have been the final boss, it's like he has a super unique ai that just wants to disrespect you, its absolutely glorious
I still think it would be cool if the developers make a Soul Calibur style Star Wars game. I am still a bit disappointed Starkiller isn't canon in Star Wars anymore. Side note: to me he's a freakin' awesome character!
12:33 I remember back in the SC4 days when I was trying to unlock Starkiller. I was on my 10th attempt I think( I was like 7 or 8 at the time if memory serves right) and playing with Yoda is quite a challenge. It was final battle and I think I had like 2 hits left while Starkiller had like half a bar still when he jumped off the stage like an idiot. Was so happy that day. Kicked Algols ass no problem also lol.
4:11 "Oh, shit! CERVANTES YOU FU- Hey, thank you for that. Hey, how about you go over here and take a dip bitch!" Man..........I had to wipe a tear after listening to that. 😂
The Apprentice: "Hows this?" *Flips off platform* Darth Vader: "You fucking idiot! Who taught you? ME? IMPOSSIBLE!" Confirmed: Vader has the best quotes in this game
Starkiller's a weird one for me, because he was the only challenge to Arcade mode and pulled all these interesting combos... that I couldn't replicate when I used him.
That’s part of the reason they nerfed Vader, they were promoting that shitty “Force Awakens” game. Funny thing is, first level, you play as Vader and he’s a badass, then the rest of the game sucks
LoL... I remember the day my friend bought this game and we took turns trying to beat Apprentice before he took the game out, put it back in the case, and threw it a good 150 feet behind his house.
I remember Lamenting how much of a pain starkiller was. Talked to my friends about this at Hollywood Video and there was this one jackass who said he was easy and it wasn't a big deal for him to unlock him. He had the 360 version and with Yoda its easy mode.....Also this was long before they made Vader/Yoda as DLC for sale (Vader was PS4 and Yoda was 360 at launch)
12:30 After over an hour of fighting Starkiller as Vader in the PS3 version, something like this was the only way I actually ended up getting passed him.
i never understood why the second skin for Starkiller is the same gear but white when they could have given him the Jedi Adventure Robes with a blue or black lightsaber
Actually Vader is a lot stronger than Starkiller, it's just that Starkiller's force power is insane and his powers are so destructive, chaotic and powerful. But when it comes to everything else in the force he is nowhere close to Palpatine or Vader, but that doesn't make him any less weaker or stronger.
@@rideabike979 I mean that's a moot point considering the majority of Palpatine's strength is through how powerful a force wielder he is and Vader's physical skills are hampered by his armour.
I was honestly expecting for Max to body Starkiller and make me and my Dad look like shitters for force grab cheesing him. I can breathe easier knowing that the AI is just fucked on Starkiller for Namco/Bandai's suffering fetish.
Yeah, I remember Starkiller being the hardest fight in Arcade. Just rounds and rounds of getting roflstomped. Watching your matches against him, it looks like he actually reads your inputs at least some of the time. Total bullshit fight.
Starkiller asked Vader what he was doing because he knew that if Vader was planning on actually fighting against him that Vader was going to get his ass kicked.
Edward Mack There was one planned. From what I gathered, it was supposed to be a sorta open world game where Galen and Darth Vader were stuck on a planet together and had to find a way off. Vader woulda been playable in a co-op sorta way, probably also through swapping in single player I'd bet.
IT IS indeed so goddamn hard to win the star killer Battle! Also darth vader is a bit hard to control and starkiller is so damn fast and awesome in his moves! If only ghey gave darth the power to force choke in the game as well
Just playing this for the first time and goddamn, the apprentice is the fucking cheapest fight on earth. It definitely is reading your every move. Hard as shit on easy and normal
Figured out a trick. Get your first hit in and drop em to the floor. Just gotta time grabs every time they get up. Cheapest way but fuck, I can't even beat it playing the game normally
"How's this?"
>Literally throws himself off the stage trying to look cool
My sides are in breaking the stratosphere
Vader!Max: "Aw yeah, shove this sword in his back!"
Starkiller: "Deja vu..."
Worst thing about Yoda is even if you do get a critical finish on him you don't get to see your special move. His model is too small so your character just does one of their normal attacks. Even killing the little bitch is unsatisfying.
N00BSYBORG that funny
its almost like you're saying Yoda ruins everything fun about SC4
TheBAGman17 It's almost like Yoda is one of the most poorly designed characters in a fighting game ever.
i don't believe you a character who can ignore over half the mechanics can't be bad.
Soul cailbur 5 is worst
You know, if there's one thing I always love about the SC series, it's the graphical fidelity. They're so pretty for the time that each game came out!
Kenmiester2012 Namco.. they make every game look amazing idk how they do it
Kenmiester2012 the game still looks great to this day
Same with tekken and dragon ball games
2021 and this game still looks pretty good. A few days ago i went back and played some Tekken 5 in the ps2 and that still holds up visually, Namco REALLY knows what they're doing when it comes to visuals
Max is right, Vader wouldn't let his nipples out in a fight, but this is most likely due to the fact that Vader no longer has nipples.
That and he'd probably die outside his suit
xhandbasketx Well whatever skin he has left looks like Freddy Krueger.
Tom Hawkins It's like an avocado had sex with an older, more rotten avocado
so...by that rationale he did let his nipples out in a fight, but just the one time and they're still there, baked into the side of a hill
He might’ve fought with his nipples out back in Attack of the Clones.
Darth Vader: _dies an incalculable amount of times_
Also Darth Vader: *yOu ArE wEaK*
it's a battle like this that makes me wish Starkiller is canon to the star wars universe
Yesnog05 or if we got a force unleashed 3 for current gen :o
Josh Hall We really need a force Unleashed 3 but they need to stop dicking around and make it awesome. The first is pretty good but two is just terrible. It looks really great visually but it is so incredibly boring. The one thing they got right is being able to dismember stormtroopers which is cool, but that's about the only thing they got right.

Not to mention you see two instances of Boba Fett but never fight him or anything like that so it's nothing but a massive tease and it really upsets you that's it's just thrown in there that with really no purpose to serve.
Yesnog05 I think that The Force Unleashed was approved as canon by George Lucas prior to Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm.
A lot of things were approved as canon by Lucas prior to acquisition, too bad that counts for nothing now. Personally I never liked Starkiller as he was way too OP.
Steven Clark In the movies, they say the Force is something really powerful so it feel so good to play a character that does way more than telekinesis and using lightning. The dude made a destroyer crash by just waving his hands.

Yes Max, yes, let the hate flow through you. It shall give you Unlimited POWUH~!!!
But Vader did bring balance to the Force. Before episode 3 there were a fuck ton of Jedi and only 2 sith. After Episode 3, there were 2 on each side.
Average Guy There were 12 Jedi left.
Expanded Universe is no longer canon.
Pretty sure they're all considered dead now.
Not gonna lie, it was fun watching Max get his ass kicked by The Apprentice
I know even though I got my ass kicked by The Apprentice
This was underwhelming satisfying watch Max get Destroyed lol
OMFG when Starkiller jumped out of the ring I lost it XDDD
hey he had to give Vader a few wins, he is no longer the apprentice, he is now the master.
ntabiblaze SAME IM STILL LAUGHING LIKE IM ON JOKER GAS
That was the best way to beat him by baiting him to the edge of the ring he would eventually jump out XD
Or us Vader's throw and chuck him out of course.
ntabiblaze "Hows this"
Brian Rodriguez I just used my created character (which had Maxi's weapon) to style and combo around him to drain health.
"it's just so funny Vader picking up this 12 year old and chucking her on the ground "
- Maximilian 2017
I really wish Soul Calibur 4 was backwards compatible on Xbox One ;^;
lowrider6217 same too :/
lowrider6217 same I assume the star wars licence is causing a problem for getting the game republished. hope they can get it sorted out...
Johnny Burnes Yeah the DLC is still available :D, so it's all good!
Dlc's gone now on 360.
lowrider6217 I wish the same thing! A port wouldn’t be so bad though. With all the dlc added as Namco Bandai decided to remove the game, and its respective dlc from the online marketplace.

"BWAAAAARGH". It's never not funny.
'SUFFERRRRR'
Not gonna, lie, I'd love to see Darth Vader show up as a secret character in Marvel vs Capcom now that Disney owns Star Wars.
Kirbysmith64 Marvel published the comics back in the 70s/80s too
Any new Marvel vs Capcom would suck
SC4 aged very well
Seeing Max play as Vader makes me want a good Star Wars fighting game.
I like that Vader's throw is a direct reference to Return of the Jedi
I'm still waiting for that fully fledged starwars/Jedi game made by namco. one can only wish.
probably going to be waiting a long time....
Hardeep Singh
As long as EA has that monopoly over Star Wars games firmly in their grasp, your dream will unfortunately not come to fruition
I forgot how the CPU is so passive in this game on standart difficulty.
Maximilian Dood You could do the Tower of Lost Souls as a boss rage of sorts. It's rage inducing and the final level is totally worthy of it.
+Maximilian Dood Really? I didn't remember that. Thanks to respond me.
I played the PSP broken destiny port and the cpu is nothing but cheap shot and combo spammers.
that central processing unit can be a bitch lol,im probably spacing as ive had a few drinks but whats your CPU?.
***** Haha, good one.
When Starkiller killed himself I've lost it.
*Watches Starkiller leap out of the ring*
And this is why you are not part of the official canon of Star Wars!
The apprentice still scares me to this date, the longer you fight him it really feels like the more he learns, and the harder it is to kill, he should have been the final boss, it's like he has a super unique ai that just wants to disrespect you, its absolutely glorious
Yeah
Max's reaction when Starkiller ring outs himself is hilarious 😂
Daniel Tuma tru lol
I still think it would be cool if the developers make a Soul Calibur style Star Wars game.
I am still a bit disappointed Starkiller isn't canon in Star Wars anymore. Side note: to me he's a freakin' awesome character!
philip beaumont
He was, prior to Disney killing off anything outside the films and shows. TFU 1 at least. 2 is debateable.
He was a pretty stupid character. He’s supposedly dark side, but in the “Force Awakens” games he came off like a bitch
12:33
I remember back in the SC4 days when I was trying to unlock Starkiller.

Kicked Algols ass no problem also lol.
The Apprentice's moveset was actually pretty sick.
Faaaaaall!!!
Excluding the one that was done in the past, A Star Wars fighting game needs to be made.
How about a remake of "Shadows Of The Empire"?!
RealmOfWonders We actually got a really good one. The episode 3 game had an amazing multilayer duel mode.
Brainblower 101 Not the same.
Thinking about this now... Bayonetta would fit pretty well in a future SC game
Yea
Ariel Gonzalez maybe she could be in the Nintendo release if they make a new game
Ariel Gonzalez wrong comment, sorry i'm pretty tired here
Geo Belmont
Oh X)
I was wondering why it was so random
Ariel Gonzalez yea, meant for comment above. appreciate saying it was a good yoda tho
I remember Starkiller being cheap as hell back when I played this -ahh memories.
Yesssss
Am I the only one that kinda likes the small redesign of Vader's cape?
I believe that this is the cape less one
4:11 "Oh, shit! CERVANTES YOU FU- Hey, thank you for that. Hey, how about you go over here and take a dip bitch!" Man..........I had to wipe a tear after listening to that. 😂
The Apprentice: "Hows this?" *Flips off platform*
Darth Vader: "You fucking idiot! Who taught you? ME? IMPOSSIBLE!"
Confirmed: Vader has the best quotes in this game
After seeing this, I really wouldn't mind a legit Star Wars fighting game.
Starkiller's a weird one for me, because he was the only challenge to Arcade mode and pulled all these interesting combos... that I couldn't replicate when I used him.
The anime purge has been a sucess once again
12:30 lmao XD who taught you me!!
Starkiller was even harder than the actual final boss.
That’s part of the reason they nerfed Vader, they were promoting that shitty “Force Awakens” game. Funny thing is, first level, you play as Vader and he’s a badass, then the rest of the game sucks
the tower of lost souls is so much harder,
you have to boss rage that shit.
Azurada23rd YES PLEASE MAX START DOING TOWER OF LOST SOULS. ITS TAKING ME FOREVER TO DO THAT SHIT I WANT YOU TO FEEL MY PAIN XD
I really miss this game. The graphics still look so damn good
Honestly, Vader might be the only one who actually DOES understand
12:31
Starkiller: you underestimate my Power
Vader: don't try it
Starkiller: AHAH WOW WOW WAAAAA
LoL... I remember the day my friend bought this game and we took turns trying to beat Apprentice before he took the game out, put it back in the case, and threw it a good 150 feet behind his house.
😂😂😂
No joke, that Vader/Yoda fight had some pretty cool little moments.
“Everybody else was such a jobber” 😂😂😂
Why wasn't this a boss rage? It really deserved one.
Max commented above. He says SC4 doesn't have different difficulties on Arcade mode
All Apprentice does is sidestep. Could've just thrown him forever.
Epic-Fran! What about the final mission on the ascending part of tower of lost souls?
I remember Lamenting how much of a pain starkiller was. Talked to my friends about this at Hollywood Video and there was this one jackass who said he was easy and it wasn't a big deal for him to unlock him. He had the 360 version and with Yoda its easy mode.....Also this was long before they made Vader/Yoda as DLC for sale (Vader was PS4 and Yoda was 360 at launch)
Yeah, everything is easy when you stand under the opponent's knees but can leap over their heads. Yoda's bs.
Why does Starkiller's attacks look so much like a graceful ballerina yet extremely powerful?
12:30 After over an hour of fighting Starkiller as Vader in the PS3 version, something like this was the only way I actually ended up getting passed him.
I really love Siegfried's armor in this game. His Soul Calibur is really badass too.
12:32 xD
That happened to me so friggin much with that move! I never learned.
star killer was my fav character in this game.
Nobody:
Yoda:
Not even Starkiller:
Max, playing as Vader: *STICK THIS SWORD IN HER YAH!*
i never understood why the second skin for Starkiller is the same gear but white when they could have given him the Jedi Adventure Robes with a blue or black lightsaber
'Vader would never fight with his nipples out!' lmao!
Makes sense, Starkiller was meant to be stronger than Vader.
Shame he isn't canon though.
Actually Vader is a lot stronger than Starkiller, it's just that Starkiller's force power is insane and his powers are so destructive, chaotic and powerful. But when it comes to everything else in the force he is nowhere close to Palpatine or Vader, but that doesn't make him any less weaker or stronger.

@@HappyPotat true
*Viciously t-bag so the AI can't guess my movement so i can just grab starkiller and throw him over and over again*
12:32 Starkiller: "Hold on Master I gotta get the Cookies out of the oven."
12:30 Defuq was that!? XD
He ringed himself out! haha xD
7:50 THIS IS SPARTA!
I was honestly expecting for Max to body Starkiller and make me and my Dad look like shitters for force grab cheesing him.
I can breathe easier knowing that the AI is just fucked on Starkiller for Namco/Bandai's suffering fetish.
i feel better now knowing that I'm not the only one that had trouble with starkiller
I suggested this as a boss rage along time ago. I'm glad you finally did it
Yeah, I remember Starkiller being the hardest fight in Arcade. Just rounds and rounds of getting roflstomped. Watching your matches against him, it looks like he actually reads your inputs at least some of the time. Total bullshit fight.
I was just playing Star Wars Force Unleashed last night. Finally got to see Starkiller bring down that star destroyer at the end of the game.
That starkiller fight is bringing me flashbacks of force unleashed where you kick vader's ass maliciously LOL
7:50 This is Sparta
Now I don't feel so bad for this guy giving me a hard time.
I miss this game I had dozens of hilariously customized characters and the mechanics were sick! SC4 is the best in the series IMO
Yep
1:45 Max suprised Vader suplexes a child as if he didn't just Order 66'd younglings before.
in all honesty i think Algol's is my Favorite skill set in the game.
DA CHAAAAAAIR!!!
Crazy to think that this game is only PS3/360. it aged so well
This just shows how awesome a Star Wars game made by the Soul Calibur team could be.
Seeing the fight with Yoda brought back painful memories of Goldeneye back in the N64 days.
My GOD! This game was released 11 years ago and it still looks SO GOOD!
Is Yoda next? | 5:15 - Shouldn't that be "To stop you, my task it is"? | 8:47 - He's badly burned in that suit, have you SEEN Revenge of the Sith?!
Game still looks so good for a game from 2008
Starkiller asked Vader what he was doing because he knew that if Vader was planning on actually fighting against him that Vader was going to get his ass kicked.
LMAOOOOO Galen mopped the entire universe with your Vader ass
we need a Force Unleashed 3
How half the video is Galen beating his ass LMAOOOOOO..16 MINUTES
Edward Mack
There was one planned. From what I gathered, it was supposed to be a sorta open world game where Galen and Darth Vader were stuck on a planet together and had to find a way off. Vader woulda been playable in a co-op sorta way, probably also through swapping in single player I'd bet.
we need soul 6
Mortal kombat is the Best wasnt 6 already made or did they stop at 5? i dont remember
Josh Hall sc6 haven't came out yet.... idk if they going to made it or not
gameideas.wikia.com/wiki/Soul_Calibur_6
SC 6 is coming out Some ass-hat named Groh is a new character, but Taki came back
It's coming next month!!!
every time darth vader wins and he crosses his hands i expect him to say youre weak BAKA
SC4 will always be my favorite Soul Calibur game. It had huge and flexible movesets, great roster, and combos were not limited.
Yes... Let the salt flow within you...
12:32
LOL. I didn't even know it was possible to ring out over those rails.
I miss the bookends of each fight in a Soul Calibur game. Character specific dialogue and multiple exit animations made it feel livelier.
ah Force Unleashed my 2nd favorite fanfiction game. behind Kingdom Hearts of course.
TheBAGman17 how is kingdom Hearts a fan fiction game?
its basically a character insert into a bunch of Disney properties. its obviously a lot more than just that now though.
How is the first Force Unleashed fan fiction? The second one oh definitely but the first I wouldn’t exactly call fan fiction
Starkiller is probably my favorite guest character in Soul Calibur by far. So much fun.
You could always do a Boss Rage on Night Terror from SC3. Though from what I remember unlocking the fight alone was a chore
Lunardivider24 as much as shin oni. so he probably could.
why are u not using low atks.... Apprentice will keep blocking mid upper atks ...
You know, listening to your commentary actually made me root for the Apprentice, which I never thought possible. So you managed that, at least.
12:30 I laughed so hard "You fucking idiot?! WHO TAUGHT YOU?! ME?! THATS IMPOSSIBLE"
IT IS indeed so goddamn hard to win the star killer Battle! Also darth vader is a bit hard to control and starkiller is so damn fast and awesome in his moves! If only ghey gave darth the power to force choke in the game as well
Vader can force choke, it’s off a grapple though. Vader was made to be an ineffective grappler
Vader got bodied.
"Is that as hard as it gets?"... You got your ass handed to you by Starkiller multiple times lol
That was the greatest loss to Algol I think I have ever seen
Sits in the chair and kicks him out of the ring
12:31 LOL apparently somebody taught him to jump off cliffs lol. Ringed himself out.
YESSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO DO MORE SOUL CALIBUR
13:06 He was channeling vader from episode 3
Just playing this for the first time and goddamn, the apprentice is the fucking cheapest fight on earth. It definitely is reading your every move. Hard as shit on easy and normal
Figured out a trick. Get your first hit in and drop em to the floor. Just gotta time grabs every time they get up. Cheapest way but fuck, I can't even beat it playing the game normally
@@micksterminator3that kind of sounds like the last fight of fukua's story mode in Skullgirls that is always the hardest difficulty no matter what
Man as much as i love Max and a lot of other youtubers,seeming them grow when im getting nowhere can really take it out of you.
