    Great video once again, dude. I am really getting a kick out of these featuring more obscure titles as always. Actually just picked up Yoda Stories in the big box the other day, looking forward to trying it out finally!

    • @Englebert3rd

      The good old Yoga Stories, spent hours on it when I was really young. Loved it as well as Indiana Jones and his desktop adventures!

    "Teräs Käsi" is Finnish and means "Steel Hand" :D

      I guess that’s similar to tekken which means iron fist in English.

    Great episode as always man! Really liked it. And thanks for letting me know you where making this before you uploaded, cool of you. Here's my History of Star Wars part 1 for anyone interested - The History of Star Wars Video Games - Part 1: The 80's - it's a very different style to this one, I'm going through everyone from start to finish! Currently up to part 2 :)

    @GiantChihuahuaBrand 10 років тому +1

    Night Shift is probably one of the strangest uses of the Star Wars license that comes to mind. The game revolved around keeping a factory that manufactures Star Wars toys running smoothly. It was actually quite a lot of fun.

  • @electricadventures

    My memory of obscure star wars games is Star Wars: Droid Works, a puzzle/learning game that I eventually couldn't beat because I got stuck on the last level.
    Thanks for sharing, I had never heard of most of these games.

  • @ItsTheLondonFella
    @ItsTheLondonFella 10 років тому +2

    I have KOTOR on my iPad and although I'd love to get into it, I just don't like turn based fighting systems.

    You fellas are great ... thanks for the show.

    We ran Masters of Teras Kasi in a random tournament at a local anime convention. The best part about it was the audience chanting, "HOAR! HOAR! HOAR!" and people wondering what the hell is going on.

    I had so much fun cooperatively playing Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles.
    It played almost like a3D Double Dragon with lightsabers.
    Probably doesn't hold up today but I have fond memories.

  • @tjpulliam19
    @tjpulliam19 10 років тому

    @GeekThingsPodcast 10 років тому

    I actually owned and still own both Star Wars Monopoly and Star Wars Demolition. Got them both back in the day when I was growing up. Fun games. Awesome vid as always, MJR!

  • @LaRusso
    @LaRusso 10 років тому

    My favourite Star Wars game is probably Mysteries Of The Sith - classic! Btw, you ever going to do a part 2 to your 80s metal bands video? I'd love to see that if you ever got the time.

    @ikilledkenny556 10 років тому

    One of the strangest Star Wars games I've ever played is called Gungan Frontier on the PC. It's sort of like a weird terraforming/evolution thing (think a *really* primitive version of Spore). It was never my cup of tea, although I wonder if others had a different experience? Awesome video, by the way! I love Demolition.

  • @venni82
    @venni82 10 років тому +1

    That t-shirt.
    Anyway, i remember the Indiana Jones version of the Yoda Stories game, too. Those games were really repetitive, since the screens were not really randomized, but put together in a different order.

    It's basically a Star Wars RTS made using the Age Of Empires 2 engine.

    Hey guy,
    Really love you!!!
    But two question:
    Do you also have a ps3/4
    And do you also play some of the modern games like GTA V and that stuff?

  • @MurrayLewis
    @MurrayLewis 10 років тому +1

    I used to love Star Wars: Demolition on PS1, but then I lent it to my friend and he broke the disc. As retribution, he gave me Mission Impossible (without the jewel case and booklet).
    Looking back, that was more of an insult than an apology.

    I played a lot of the Star Wars Chess on our DOS machine when I was little. It looked like it was running WAY slower than I remember on yours.
    Also played a crapload of Yoda Stories...it was great for messing around.

  • @danscott8965

    @JrAccessDenied 7 років тому

    Star Wars Demolition is one of my favorites!
    Rogue Squadron seems to be very enjoyable from my childhood memories. Used to love playing it on the PC, and i rarely hear anyone discuss that one.

  • @MakiNashWolf
    @MakiNashWolf 10 років тому +2

    i say the forgotten star wars game i played was bounty hunter and it was a fun third person shooter / exploration in some levels but over all i had a blast with it on the gamecube

  • @AyratHungryStudent

  • @DiggSatari
    @DiggSatari 10 років тому

    My all time favorite is the old atari, stand up arcade cabinet with wire frame graphics! I'm glad you said demolition! That game rocked! I loved masters of teris kasi to. It was a good game to play a with others plus all the extra outfits you could unlock(like Lea's slave outfit). I was sorry to see that you didn't cover Rebel Assault II. That was a rocking game to!

  • @DamonCzanik
    @DamonCzanik 10 років тому

    Rebel Assault, the Empire Strikes Back arcade cabinet, Jango Fett , the clone wars, the PC port of the Star Wars arcade game, the weird Star Wars NES games, Jedi Arena for the 2600, and Star Wars pinball. Republic Commando, and the xwing series are hidden gems but loved by fans.

  • @colonel_fox

    Jedi Power Battles for PS1 and Dreamcast is one of my favorite star wars games of all time and it doesn't get enough love

  • @mediaglitch
    @mediaglitch 10 років тому

    I loved that Starwars Monopoly game. Plus I would like to say that Star Wars Masters of Teras Kasi is a hard game to learn but once you put the hours in is a fun and awesome game. I have many memories of this game and playing it with my friends.

  • @MadPanicGaming
    @MadPanicGaming 10 років тому +2

    I actually kind of like the Star Wars game on Famicom, it's pretty fun. Aside from that I also liked Bounty Hunter and Jedi Academy though no one else seems to.

  • @Robster881
    @Robster881 10 років тому

    There was a puzzle game that came out back around Episode one, Star Wars Pit Droids I think.
    There was also an "interactive story book" that came out around the same time.
    And a personal favourite where you worked on a Jawa Sandcrawler making droids. But I can't find record of any of these games on wikipedia.

  • @nwc333
    @nwc333 10 років тому

    Star Wars Episode 1 for PSX/PC comes to mind. It didn't get great reviews, but there are people who still play the game to this day. The Tattooine levels were just a great mix of RPG and Free Roaming. The fact that you could talk to anyone and kill anyone made the level really fun. There are some really funny videos scattered around UA-cam of things you can do and say in the game.

  • @brainnim9935

    Demolition! As a kid I remember seeing it only once when I was very young but I somehow, I've never forgotten it.

    Star Wars monopoly was one of my favorite games growing up and i had the same board in real life.

  • @xeroker1985
    @xeroker1985 10 років тому

    Excellent theme for a video, Ive seen countless top 10-20 star wars games, but it was really cool for those odd games to get a mention this time, they all can't be Episode-1 Racer or Super Empire Strikes Back, but as long as they are star wars themed and a video game, they are worth a look.
    Some games that I would of like to have seen mentioned are Star Wars Bounty Hunter the Jango Fett game, it wasn't perfect but some neat ideas in that game, specially the free roaming sections. SW Battlefront Elite Squadron on the NDS is a surprisingly good twin stick shooter style game. Star Wars for the SMS/NES is a game that is not very good, but worth a look.

  • @YellowJacketY2J
    @YellowJacketY2J 10 років тому

    I completely forgot about the Star Wars fighting game for the Playstation. You just brought back bad memories of renting it as a child & being stuck with it over the weekend. That's when I learned that, just because it had the Star Wars license, doesn't mean it's automatically going to be a good game.

  • @GameSack
    @GameSack 10 років тому +11

    Which games did you miss? OMG soooo many!!! I don't know what they are though as my eyes kind of just gloss over Star Wars titles in the store. I hate to use this analogy but they're almost like sports games it seems with how many there are. My fav is the arcade Star Wars by Atari. NOT Star Wars Arcade by Sega. Also that first Gamecube Star Wars game wasn't too bad... Rebel something-or-other. I should know the name since I own it. Stay away from Rebel Assault on the Sega CD!

    • @MetalJesusRocks
      @MetalJesusRocks  10 років тому +7

      Star Wars Rogue Squadron on the Gamecube was pretty awesome actually. Certainly one of the better ones of that generation.

      Rogue Leader for GC was a launch game and its got sum of the best graphics on the system, awesome game ! Just sold my extra copy for 3 bucks on eBay so someone else will get to enjoy it ! I have part 3 but havent played it. That RTS game looks like the precursor to Empire at War (PC), another game I have and dont really play, I just cant reallly figure it out, and I played many RTS games before but it looks so cool, i think I need to sit down and force myself to play it. There are so many Star Wars games someone could have a whole youtube channel dedicated to them, thats prob already a thing

  • @josephjones1886

    Yoda Stories was awesome to mess around on! There was also Indiana Jones Desktop Adventures. It was pretty much Yoda Stories with Indy except it came first.

  • @MightyJabbasCollection
    @MightyJabbasCollection 8 років тому

    As a Jabba the Hutt fan, I'd vote for Star Wars Math: Jabba's Game Galaxy. Definitely a bit of a weird one -- sort of an edutainment title.

    @alien_rising9895 10 років тому

    Nice video. I too really enjoyed SW Demolition. I wouldve put SW Jedi Power battles on there, particularly the Dreamcast version. It wasn't the best game ever but my friends & I really liked it.

  • @SweetCousinCocaine
    @SweetCousinCocaine 10 років тому

    I found my copy of Masters of Teräs Käsi in a U-Haul truck that my dad rented. It was just in there on the floor without a case and it was pretty scratched up. Still played though. I didn't think it was that bad once you get the hang of it.

  • @thedenmeister6414
    @thedenmeister6414 10 років тому +1

    Here's a rare one. Star wars galactic assault.
    It's like doom but star wars. It was a shareware game that came out in the mid 90s
    95 or 97.

  • @TsakuraWataame
    @TsakuraWataame 10 років тому

    Sick list of games! There is some new games I'll have to look into now. For me, my weirdest Star Wars game is a Parody and Spoof. It's "Star Warped" from Parroty Interactive. It was released in 1997, and just makes fun of Star Wars. I'll get a Video of it up soon.

    @HalfBlindGamer 10 років тому

    The stand alone Star Wars Lightsaber Battle Game would fit this bill I think. Do you have that? I think it was released by Tiger. Had you flay your lightsaber arm around like mad before the Wii was around! Mostly forgotten, but pretty nifty still, especially seeing how the last motion controlled SW game worked out...

    Oh god, I had that racing-game back in the day. I truly regret it, even if it was only a pirated copy.
    And speaking of strange/obscure Star Wars-games I happened to own, there's also this little "gem" called Star Wars Droidworks.
