Mos Espa massive killing, having to deal with the equivalent of GTA San Andreas stars and surviving the longest possible is definitely a great gaming memory.
Those guards are relentless but it is really satisfying to evade them as long as possible (until the game decides to stop you by saying "padme/jarjar/whoever" died when they didn't)
I remember just going on a rampage in Mos Espa and hearing such memorable dialogue such as "Run! It's the Killer!" from an old lady and "Hey mister, are you going to kill again?" from one of those random kids LOL
They also developed it before the movie came out. And had basically no idea how the story went, aside from a few small story beats. They were working with very limited info.
@@wyatterdman8742 Yeah, they didn't even get sent some important scenes until the game was almost ready to go gold. Mos Espa was the first level they did, and it's so fleshed out because they kept tinkering with it while waiting for more scenes to make levels around. That, and creating assets/retooling assets from their original pitch for a Star Wars EU action game. They didn't even have footage of how Jedi fought in the prequel era until they had _already completed the combat system._
"The Force is strong with you.", "Strong enough to be a Jedi?", "No... Not really", and Anakin became a professional podracer while erasing the entire First Trilogy from existence and the Queen lost to the Trade Federation because they didn't have Anakin to blowup the Federation's capital ship, and all of Naboo was enslaved, further advancing Palpatine's plot for a galactic takeover... Written and Directed By George Lucas.
@@WesDoesGames I had the pc version and as soon as you killed anyone you would get the "I'm not helping a no good killer" loop and the level became unbeatable.
@@WesDoesGames So there are consequences to killing people in both Otoh Gungah and Mos Espa. In Otoh Gungah, Jar Jar dies and in Mos Espa if kill people, Anakin will say I won't help a murderer like you and you're soft locked, until either reload or Jar or Padme dies out of nowhere. But if you use dialog skip (let someone like Jar Jar saying dumb stuff and then spam dialog to Anakin) he won't say the murderer line and you can complete the level if you had the good items.
Haha! I was about 10 years old when I was playing this game on release and that quote is something I still say to my older brother to this day when we go through doors (occasionally) 😂😂
I have still a very positive memory of this game. First Star Wars game played after seeing the movie, when I was 10 or 11. But what still makes me wonder is from where I got the game and to where it vanished.
Me too, I actually thought that this game was genuinely considered to be good, with some bugs and clunkiness and humor ofcourse but for a crappy license game of a pretty crappy movie - something very good actually. Then again it's a very long time ago since I played this and I also was probably less than 10 yo then
Is anyone else forever scarred by "Please! Leave me alone! I am mourning the death of my son!"? Because 8 year old me was NOT ready for that to be a core memory lol.
This was one of my childhood games. My best friend and me spend hours upon hours trying out everything we could. Printing out cheatcodes from old gaming magazines. This game has German localization and some of the voices are burnt in my mind forever. I even bought the guidebook for it, mostly for the pictures because I couldn't read, yet when I first played it, but I distinctly remember one screenshot of Obi wan standing behind QuiGon and Darth Maul fighting in the generator room, that is impossible to achieve. To this day I wonder how they did that. Good times. I'm glad we're not the only ones who love this old, janky, messy, lamazing game. Thank you for making this
This game an Jedi power battles were my entire childhood with my brother. I got tears in my eyes. So much fun. I loved tattoine . An killing everything 😂
Jedi Power Battles was sick! I played it so much with my brother back when we were like 8 years old. I always thought that it was better than this one, although this video made me realise that this game was just... different lol
My favourite memory of this game is playing as Obi-Wan and contanstly standing behind Qui Gon to let him take the brunt of the attack and he would keep berating me 'Obi-Wan, I must have room to fight!' over and over and over again. Still.. good times. I hope that Revenge of the Sith is released on PS5 as well! Now THAT was a great game
I used to love this game back in the day even though I didn’t have a clue what I was doing .. Down to the fact you could reflect the blaster lasers back ..
My favorite glitch was somehow making the thermal detonator explosion come out of Padme, repeatedly, until Jar Jar died. Loved the writing in this game too, I remember so many random lines from it. "Stop walking on my dung worms!" "The door is open, let's go." "BARBO IS HURRYING AS FAST AS HE CAN"
I remember playing the PS1 version, and yet I'm disappointed there isn't a modding community for the PC version. An Attack of the Clones mod for the game could've been perfect, especially knowing that you would have to fight Jango Fett twice.
When I was a child, finishing a game was a big deal. Even by playing a lot, it took me months to finish a game. I struggled through this game (on PC) to finally reach Darth Maul. I ran to him and force-pushed him in the hole, hence winning instantly the fight and finishing the game. My first anticlimactic moment of my life. Love this game, I am sure all worked as intended. Thank you for the video, it is always good to feed nostalgia. :)
This is so funny! I played the PC version as a kid for many many many hours. I loved this game so much but until watching this video, I had no idea the player could kill pretty much anyone 😅 Well that just shows what a goodie two shoes I am. Lmao!!!
@@WesDoesGames It absolutely could be the way I remember it also, it was so long ago but I truly don't recall that aspect of the game at all. It's so funny.
When there was a remark about a vicious killer in town i chose the middle option to imply jar jar wandered off (implying he did it.) Another thing was gaving a blaster out while choosing force persuasion options to look like it was a gunpoint persuasion.
When i was in Mos Espa i killed everything i could find for fun, too. However i loved the game cause it was one of the few games where you could explore a bit of the star wars universe. At least you got Star Wars Galaxies after that and that game was great ^^
3:33 You forgot to mention the hilarious voice glitch with that guy if you decide to free him. He says "thank you" with the highest pitch in his voice possible. 🤣🤣
I was 13 years old in 1999. I was insanely hyped for this movie. I loved it. I got a LOT of the toys. And I got this game as soon as it came out. I loved it too.
I remember getting this for PC but being unable to run it, and feeling like I was missing out on something cool. Now, 24 years later, I realize that I missed out on more than I ever could've anticipated.
Man, this takes me back… 😅 I remember voice clips from this mainly, like in the Tatooine level when you kill someone/thing those big pig guards would snarl and say “YOU’RE A NO GOOD KILLER!” And chase you about. I also thought Maul at the end was really difficult for some reason, but you made it look easy
oh my god i remember playing this on PC for hours! Since english is not my first language it took me like a year to complete the tatooine qui-gon levels lol😭
I played this on PC as a kid. Some memories: 1) There's a somewhat difficult jump in the first half of the Coruscant level. Missing it usually means death. HOWEVER, if you fall just the right way, you fall into somewhere near the end of the level, without dying! I used to do this all the time, because I found that level too difficult as a kid (and Panaka's best weapon has no ammo pickups). 2) In Escape from Theed, if you forget to lower the bump in the bridge before asking Amidala to follow you, she will try her hardest to walk through it until she eventually falls off the side of the bridge. She will then continue trying to walk to the other side underwater. 3) In Mos Eisley, you can only get away with killing NPCs if they attack first. There's one extremely annoying guy who spawns in at just the right moment to shoot you down while you're climbing a horizontal rope. It takes a while to get back onto the rope after dealing with him. 4) It really is possible to complete Otoh Gunga as a pacifist by restricting yourself to the Force and Gungan energy balls. You may need to aggro some guards so they stop blocking the exits and come after you. 5) There are multiple ways to get the quest items in Mos Eisley. You can even get extras and trade them for ammo or health in the next level.
I tried doing the Gungun level legit and the guards would still attack unprovoked. The game really forced your hand sometimes, lol. Didn't know that about the Coruscant level, I'm gonna have to check that out! Thanks for sharing
I just so happened to have this in my collection. I beat the whole thing. It was one of those games where I could save "state", but the only things keeping me hooked was how it allowed being destructive, and it just being a wacky time overall
It was an incredibly ambitious game. Semi open world, action adventure. A bit glitchy and things didn't work. But it had that almost RPG like dialogue, as well as a "Force persuade" that sometimes bypassed annoying stuff, like a skill check and other times it didn't. Wish Ep 2 was made like this. The ep 3 game kind of returned to it, but removed the dialogue and semi open world for a more linear game :S
The funny thing of the Tatooine massacre thing is... Anakin won't help you if he knows you're a killer and softlocks your progress. Also I remember TF4 playing this game and got the game over screen in Tatooine over Padme died after they killed Jabba.
I used to love this as a kid. It felt like a fun mix of Jedi Knight and one of Lucasarts' old graphic adventure games. As an adult, the overhead viewpoint vexes me, and I feel like the game might have benefitted from a more Tomb Raider esque camera directly behind the player. Otherwise, I still can't hate it. Maybe that's nostalgia talking, who knows.
I still have this game stuffed in a closet somewhere. It was the PC version. I was so mad at all the glitches I remember getting stuck somewhere and just said screw it. Never did finish it.
Kinda wish this game was modded on pc to have rpg elements and be more improve, Yeah this game is kind alike lite GTA or a lite Elder Scrolls game, able to soft-lock yourself mission or change the path. Heck a Star Wars GTA, mix with Elder scrolls like game would be nice.
I agree with almost everything you've said in this video, but I don't know why (maybe nostalgia), I think the graphics are really good. All the characters are recognizable, down to the color of their uniforms, and the lightsabers actually light up the area you're in with a beautiful glow. Maybe I'm being too generous with the PS1, but I think it holds up well.
I mean the characters definitely look like the actors, because they use like a jpg of their faces stretched across the heads lol. But yes, I think for the time it was good. I certainly didn't have any issues with the graphics when I played it as a kid :)
Omg! One time i played gardens of theed, and when the tank fired at the beginning, the game gliched, and the explosion happened, but the bridge stayed!!! I walked straight over it, opened the gates, shortest level ever! 😅
AHHHH I LOVED THIS GAME WHEN I WAS A KID !!!!!! I was like 12 when I played it all summer one year and finally beat it. The fact that it was so glitchy and awful MADE it fun.
That one guy in the boat on Naboo kills me. Boat Guy “I’m about to take my boat up the river!” Obi-Wan “Can you take me up the river?” Boat Guy “No, my boat isn’t going anywhere today.” Obi-Wan “Isn’t there a deadly waterfall just down the river?” Boat Guy “What sort of question is that? Why don’t you jump in and find out?” Like, what an absolute lying jerk lol
Odd, that guy would always give me the chokie when I bought them. But not if I annoyed him first by sarcastically calling him a great farmer and full of wisdom in one of those wonderful branching lines you mentioned. Qui Gon in this game was the sassiest Jedi who ever lived.
Does anybody remember the glitch on the first level...on the trade federation ship....at the end of the level before you board the ship going to Naboo....you´re walking on some industrial catwalk above a bunch of transport ships and droids in formation (way below so they are tiny)....you can fall off the catwalk and usually you die...but in some way once I fell off and survived....and I was running around like a tiny obi-wan....and I hit the droids with my saber but they were like cardboard and nothing happened....I dont know if this is a real glitch or some false memory/dream...I used to play this game obsessively when I was young....but I do remember I tried to do it again so many times but instead each time I died
I love this game. But for the longest time I was stuck just after getting the money from Jabba because I didn't know the bartender droid could be interacted with or that giving the guy a drink would get me in to see Watto. I tried killing the guys at the door and looked all over that town for some other secret entrance to the track. I ended up putting the game down for several years before coming back to it just because I didn't want to leave it unfinished. So I was really surprised there was still the Panaka levels to play through. Woof. I could play this style of game as a Jedi running around lower Coruscant with a mix of bad guys and civilians.
"More hover cannons will be coming" is engraved into my brain aswell. As fore the chokies the NPC actually gives it to you on PC, so it might be just a bug on the PS1 version
I remember it actually being given on the pc too. Indeed, it seems the PS1 has a few issues with items that are supposed to be given. Like I think I remember receiving some ammo or health when bringing the boy to his mother at the theeds level in the pc version. But it doesn't seem to trigger in the PS1 version.
@@TheMrGobelin Thought so, I have been playing the PS1 port on the PS4 recently (while remembering playing the pc version ags ago). I got to that part and just could not trigger receiving that reward.
I played this game on PC so much as a kid that parts of it are permanently ingrained into my memory. My Dad and I throw random quotes at each other all the time 😂. About 7 years ago or so, I found a bunch of old PC parts and reassembled it out of curiosity. It was running Windows XP, and this game was still saved on it. I played through the game again for the first time in years, and nostalgia aside, I really enjoyed it and felt it held up. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the locked in camera angle. I should find that old PC and play through it again lol.
i could never get past the escort mission with the queen in Theed in the beginning as a kid. I just couldn't do it, seeing what the game has to offer in that hilarious gdq run was amazing. It's such a weird game, even as a kid i could see the potential and the atmosphere they craft in the first couple of missions and i replayed them over and over again, without ever managing to get past the GODFORSAKEN MOTHERFUCKING ESCORT MISSION
Favourite glitches? Well, there were constant instances of killing main characters but the game thinking i killed someone else. For example shooting Anakin in the face and the game says Jar Jar has been killed. I fell off the waterfall in Naboo and survived by landing on the trees I killed Darth Maul on the second to last level trapping me in a room because i'm meant to follow him out.
Whoa! What a trip down memory lane. This is my first Star Wars game and I hate it so much. I think because its hard for me as a kid. I also spent most of my allowance renting a PS1 since the one that my uncle gave to to me shorted out because "someone" forgot to use a 220v adaptro. hahaha... Maybe I'll play this again in the near future.
Video games are going beyond the new frontier.someday people will crave these old games.i love ps1 games.the cinematics especially.like digital clay.when they 1st came out it was incentive to finish a level just to see the cinematic.love ps1
@@WesDoesGames Of course! Yeah, at the time. I mean, even then, I knew the game was lacking, but it didn't diminish the expectation that games could get better in the future. This game was just what was available at the time. (plus, having the name "Matt" meant I had an alternate in the Star Wars universe as "Mat Rags." LOL! 😂I'm a bum in Star Wars! 🤣LMAO!)
I have fond memories of playing the Ps1 version of this game. On Tatooine, I got attacked and I wanted to re create Ben Kenobi at the cantina in the original movie but I got labeled as a murderer instead. The graphics of this game suck. I have played Ps1 games that came out in 1995 that looked better than this.
I was absolutely entranced as a 5 year old watching my dad play this. He beat the whole damn game. I looked forward to playing it so much. Eventually I got to, and I played the whole thing too. And I realized that it was a very strange game.
I played this game at university to the end but Darth Maul just wouldn't die, I think I hit a bug or something that was really annoying after getting right to the end of this often frustrating game...dammit, I want to buy it back and try again now...ha ha ha
11:04 ...actually that has nothing to do with it Apparently this descision was a call from the higher ups, they didnt want one of the films main action sequence spoiled
PC cheat codes "Happy" was the best one! Anyways took me forever to figure out to not kill people on Mos Espa to not turn everyone against you then again i was probably 10 at that point. Play PS1 version for nostalgia still probably twice a year.

Mos Espa massive killing, having to deal with the equivalent of GTA San Andreas stars and surviving the longest possible is definitely a great gaming memory.
Those guards are relentless but it is really satisfying to evade them as long as possible (until the game decides to stop you by saying "padme/jarjar/whoever" died when they didn't)
“You’re a no good killer!”
Kind of want to play this now that it’s on psn for 5$

I used to love this as a kid. It felt like a fun mix of Jedi Knight and one of Lucasarts' old graphic adventure games. As an adult, the overhead viewpoint vexes me, and I feel like the game might have benefitted from a more Tomb Raider esque camera directly behind the player. Otherwise, I still can't hate it. Maybe that's nostalgia talking, who knows.
The camera angle was definitely an odd choice but it also made the game more memorable
I laughed throughout the entire video because I see myself in it. I was the same age and felt exactly like that while playing this game.
I was 9 when this game came out/and movie. 🙃
I still have this game stuffed in a closet somewhere. It was the PC version. I was so mad at all the glitches I remember getting stuck somewhere and just said screw it. Never did finish it.
tbh the best scene from the phantom menace was the darth maul vs obi and qui gon jin, and the duel of fates went hard
I've got The death sentence on five systems 😂
OOGNA BOOGA!
Better stand back cause I'm gonna slash ALL MY PRICES!
My favorite game
Kinda wish this game was modded on pc to have rpg elements and be more improve,
Yeah this game is kind alike lite GTA or a lite Elder Scrolls game, able to soft-lock yourself mission or change the path.
Heck a Star Wars GTA, mix with Elder scrolls like game would be nice.
The graphics for the time weren't that bad.. 😂
I agree with almost everything you've said in this video, but I don't know why (maybe nostalgia), I think the graphics are really good. All the characters are recognizable, down to the color of their uniforms, and the lightsabers actually light up the area you're in with a beautiful glow. Maybe I'm being too generous with the PS1, but I think it holds up well.
I mean the characters definitely look like the actors, because they use like a jpg of their faces stretched across the heads lol. But yes, I think for the time it was good. I certainly didn't have any issues with the graphics when I played it as a kid :)
This was hilarious 😂 awesome work man!
So glad someone watched this, haha
@@WesDoesGames
How have you only got 2k subs!?
I ended up watching all your vids and they're all so good!!
Thanks so much man, that's awesome to hear :)
Omg! One time i played gardens of theed, and when the tank fired at the beginning, the game gliched, and the explosion happened, but the bridge stayed!!! I walked straight over it, opened the gates, shortest level ever! 😅
Haha that's hilarious. So many broken things in this game, but that's why I love it
AHHHH I LOVED THIS GAME WHEN I WAS A KID !!!!!! I was like 12 when I played it all summer one year and finally beat it. The fact that it was so glitchy and awful MADE it fun.
This game was peak childhood for me
That one guy in the boat on Naboo kills me.
Boat Guy “I’m about to take my boat up the river!”
Obi-Wan “Can you take me up the river?”
Boat Guy “No, my boat isn’t going anywhere today.”
Obi-Wan “Isn’t there a deadly waterfall just down the river?”
Boat Guy “What sort of question is that? Why don’t you jump in and find out?”
Like, what an absolute lying jerk lol
I'll be making a video soon about all the weird npcs in the game because there's simply too many weird conversations like this lol
Rampaging on tattoine was my favorite part 😂😂
The best part
Odd, that guy would always give me the chokie when I bought them. But not if I annoyed him first by sarcastically calling him a great farmer and full of wisdom in one of those wonderful branching lines you mentioned. Qui Gon in this game was the sassiest Jedi who ever lived.
The sassiest
Cant believe you did our guy Panaka dirty like that xD.
Got to admit - I never got one of those glitches that you mentioned and I played this game til my fingers bled
Pc or ps1?
@@WesDoesGames always ps1 haha
@@joshhunt4146 I grew up with the pc version and I can confirm that one is glitchy as heeeeeeck
“They both look… real bad” lolololololol
Best defense is damsel in distress technic !
Does anybody remember the glitch on the first level...on the trade federation ship....at the end of the level before you board the ship going to Naboo....you´re walking on some industrial catwalk above a bunch of transport ships and droids in formation (way below so they are tiny)....you can fall off the catwalk and usually you die...but in some way once I fell off and survived....and I was running around like a tiny obi-wan....and I hit the droids with my saber but they were like cardboard and nothing happened....I dont know if this is a real glitch or some false memory/dream...I used to play this game obsessively when I was young....but I do remember I tried to do it again so many times but instead each time I died
I gotta try that now
@@WesDoesGames ye please do and let me know if it orks + it would make a good video for sure..I dont have the game anymore
I love this game. But for the longest time I was stuck just after getting the money from Jabba because I didn't know the bartender droid could be interacted with or that giving the guy a drink would get me in to see Watto. I tried killing the guys at the door and looked all over that town for some other secret entrance to the track. I ended up putting the game down for several years before coming back to it just because I didn't want to leave it unfinished. So I was really surprised there was still the Panaka levels to play through. Woof. I could play this style of game as a Jedi running around lower Coruscant with a mix of bad guys and civilians.
It was ridiculously hard! I couldn’t get passed landing on Naboo with that giant monster
"More hover cannons will be coming" is engraved into my brain aswell.
As fore the chokies the NPC actually gives it to you on PC, so it might be just a bug on the PS1 version
I remember it actually being given on the pc too. Indeed, it seems the PS1 has a few issues with items that are supposed to be given.
Like I think I remember receiving some ammo or health when bringing the boy to his mother at the theeds level in the pc version. But it doesn't seem to trigger in the PS1 version.
@@DarkHypernova You're suppose to get a Full health bonus when you save the child in level 5 yep
@@TheMrGobelin Thought so, I have been playing the PS1 port on the PS4 recently (while remembering playing the pc version ags ago). I got to that part and just could not trigger receiving that reward.
George Lucas must have written the dialog for this game. It's that good.
it's like poetry it rhymes
Captain Pancake is getting a laugh from me every time
I played this game on PC so much as a kid that parts of it are permanently ingrained into my memory. My Dad and I throw random quotes at each other all the time 😂. About 7 years ago or so, I found a bunch of old PC parts and reassembled it out of curiosity. It was running Windows XP, and this game was still saved on it. I played through the game again for the first time in years, and nostalgia aside, I really enjoyed it and felt it held up. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the locked in camera angle. I should find that old PC and play through it again lol.
i could never get past the escort mission with the queen in Theed in the beginning as a kid. I just couldn't do it, seeing what the game has to offer in that hilarious gdq run was amazing. It's such a weird game, even as a kid i could see the potential and the atmosphere they craft in the first couple of missions and i replayed them over and over again, without ever managing to get past the GODFORSAKEN MOTHERFUCKING ESCORT MISSION
That's a tough one, especially when the tank comes out ☠️
Favourite glitches? Well, there were constant instances of killing main characters but the game thinking i killed someone else. For example shooting Anakin in the face and the game says Jar Jar has been killed.
I fell off the waterfall in Naboo and survived by landing on the trees
I killed Darth Maul on the second to last level trapping me in a room because i'm meant to follow him out.
These are all great 😂
The best part of this game is all the childhood surrounding it
Whoa! What a trip down memory lane. This is my first Star Wars game and I hate it so much. I think because its hard for me as a kid. I also spent most of my allowance renting a PS1 since the one that my uncle gave to to me shorted out because "someone" forgot to use a 220v adaptro. hahaha... Maybe I'll play this again in the near future.
Lol, I loved this game, it sucks and I hated it 😂
I liked the game. Had fun planning it.
Video games are going beyond the new frontier.someday people will crave these old games.i love ps1 games.the cinematics especially.like digital clay.when they 1st came out it was incentive to finish a level just to see the cinematic.love ps1
Stupid looking cgi should be a goal to strive for
Oh man! This came out when I was a young adult in the 82d!
Do you have any fond memories of it?
@@WesDoesGames Of course! Yeah, at the time. I mean, even then, I knew the game was lacking, but it didn't diminish the expectation that games could get better in the future. This game was just what was available at the time. (plus, having the name "Matt" meant I had an alternate in the Star Wars universe as "Mat Rags." LOL! 😂I'm a bum in Star Wars! 🤣LMAO!)
@@QuartuvLarry haha that's great
I have fond memories of playing the Ps1 version of this game. On Tatooine, I got attacked and I wanted to re create Ben Kenobi at the cantina in the original movie but I got labeled as a murderer instead. The graphics of this game suck. I have played Ps1 games that came out in 1995 that looked better than this.
If you had told me back then that this was one of the better SW games I would ever see I would’ve cried.
I actually managed to get the chokie from that guy without kill him, but I didn't knew where or how use it.
The chokie remains an elusive sexy mystery
Icl this is the only Star Wars related thing I ever enjoyed movie/game, anything lol
I was absolutely entranced as a 5 year old watching my dad play this. He beat the whole damn game. I looked forward to playing it so much. Eventually I got to, and I played the whole thing too.
And I realized that it was a very strange game.
That's amazing :) I'm glad you were finally able to play it. And yes, it is the strangest
if i recall correctly then jedi power battles was EPIC, but it also had some seriously infuriating glitches. that kill you
Jedi power battles was awesome (I grew up with the GBA version)
ah that one i don't know, i'll check it out@@WesDoesGames
I played anorhet ps1 game based phantom menace. Its strange there are several games for the same movie
Better stand back muster cuz I’m about to slash ALL MY PRICES
I played this game at university to the end but Darth Maul just wouldn't die, I think I hit a bug or something that was really annoying after getting right to the end of this often frustrating game...dammit, I want to buy it back and try again now...ha ha ha
Worse case scenario you could always force push him into the hole, lol
11:04 ...actually that has nothing to do with it
Apparently this descision was a call from the higher ups, they didnt want one of the films main action sequence spoiled
That makes sense, except that the entire rest of the plot is spoiled in this game lol
the Word of the day is : Nostalgia. Thanks
PC cheat codes "Happy" was the best one! Anyways took me forever to figure out to not kill people on Mos Espa to not turn everyone against you then again i was probably 10 at that point. Play PS1 version for nostalgia still probably twice a year.
I also assumed you were supposed to plow your way through 😅
I had a lot of fun with this game back in those days, but the overly tilted down camera was annoying.
