    I always felt this game was a top tier movie tie in game, not counting the other Star Wars games released at the time. Animations and models are actually really high quality for the time

      Right? I was pleasantly surprised by how good they looked too! Originally, the cardboard cutout of Obi-Wan was supposed to be the actual game model that I'd animate but I couldn't find it anywhere!

      If you want to play the campaign, you could always ask my Dad if he is willing to play with you.
      He's also a great co op buddy.
      My dad only got to play the first mission with me sadly, before we forgot about it and buried under a PS2 Lego Star Wars game.

      When i was a kid i always imagined how episode iv would play out. I mean you can play with vader and ben kenobi at the end. I thought we would have a lego star wars situation and then have from phantom menace til return of the jedi. Then the force awakens came out and i forgot about that idea and i'm glad i did

  • @duckheadbob
    @duckheadbob Місяць тому +45

    The reason 2000-2010 was peak for stars wars adjacent media, such as videos games, was because it was that sweet spot in the timeline:
    George Lucas, the orignal creator, was still at the helm and still passionate about creating the prequels and was involved in alot for these games AND, just as importantly, alot of the people that were working on and managing these games grew up watching and loving the OT and felt honored to work with George to expand the universe. It's why we see SO MUCH passion put into even games like this. Because every single person there loved star wars and was eager to leave their mark on it.
    I'm sure there are tons of people at Disney now that grew up with and love star wars. But they lack that top to bottom honor and passion that I feel this Era had.

    Real talk, I have ALWAYS wanted someone to make a story about Anakin winning the battle on Mustafar, whether that'd be in a movie, a show, a game, whatever. What would Anakin do? How would he rule? Without the influence of Darth Sidious, would he turn back to the light side, or stay in the dark? Perhaps he might even find a balance of both.
    It's just such a fascinating concept to me and I'm shocked that nothing other than this game's brief alternate ending really delved into it before; at least, nothing I'm aware of.

  • @shadystorms150

    • @Rick586
      @Rick586 Місяць тому +3

      It probably just got overshadowed and obscured by the massive success of Battlefront II, due to how massively popular FPS games were at the time.
      They're both great games, but spectacle fighters just weren't mainstream enough yet.

  • @tangogolf6784
    @tangogolf6784 Місяць тому +10

    Ah nostalgia overload
    Fun fact there's actually an exploit in this game where if you block a full chain from an opponent, there's a brief period where they can't act but you can attack right after the chain finishes.
    After figuring this out, the whole game is a relative cakewalk.
    Except when fighting someone using force heal, force heal is busted.

    3:21 as soon as you mentioned the Count Dooku boss battle, it gave me PTSD when i was a kid and first played this game when i was like 7, i’d never beat him until i was like 10 or 11, but then i was stuck in the first Mustafar level, and then I couldn’t finish the game completely until i was like 14 when i had this game on the PS3, and as soon as i finished the last level, the level of satisfaction that i had was relieving!

    The DS version of this game is also awesome, it's a Beat 'Em Up with it's own unique cartoon art style they made specially for it! The sprites are amazing, the animations are top notch, and it's SUPER satisfying to play. They also have flying levels where you fly in various starfighters. There's a PVP mode where you can fight each other in dogfights with ships like the Slave 1 and Millenium Falcon in Couruscant!

So many memories of this silly game.. i remember trying to do the special moves and stuff and just losing to Dooku endlessly because i wouldn't stop styling on him instead of fighting smart. what a game.
