Everything GREAT About Star Wars The Force Unleashed! 

THIS.

Even then, he was not that overpowered compared to other force wielders in the EU. Palpatine could create force storms. A jedi I forgot the name of threw a star destroyer out of orbit from a planet. Yoda slammed ships together and crushed entire armies in the CW 2003. Anakin in an EU CW novel held back a theta storm, which if I remember correctly was a planet level disaaster for quite some time, and obi wan believed that yoda could not accomplish this

@@lapplandkun9273 Yeah. Cant forget about how Revan could literally turn people into dust by using force lighting and splitting his consciousness into two sides of the force after being captive for 300 years. Even so, characters in canon are so dumbed down compared to their EU counterparts. There's no reason they can't do it with Revan, Starkiller, or even Kyle Katarn

And he does fit with the Inquisitors :)

@@darthsaruman9697 also Bastila could literally mind trick thousands of people in a solar system wide area.

one of the earliest games i can think of use this idea that VAs could also just **be** the character. quite honestly it could have been the spearhead for that entire concept

Also the fact that this dude was so good that he even voiced Darth Maul.

@@HishamA.N_Comicbroe and palpatine

@@HishamA.N_Comicbroe mans an true fan of the series

You think that's cool? How he got the part, in front of George Lucas, was that in a meditation scene, he gritted his teeth and grunted and it was difficult for him. When the director asked him why, in all the takes, he did the meditation the same, his response: "Because Vader wouldn't show his apprentice any peace and how to meditate, so it's a struggle for him. He was trained in the dark side, so 'peace' is a foreign concept to him." Shocked everyone, landed the part. NERDING OUT got him the part of Starkiller. 🤯

Holy crap, wow

That would be a hell of a coincidence

Favorite Star Wars game ever

I remember once making a joke about Anakin's teaching method since both his 2 main apprentices hold their lightsabers in the reverse position

it was more or less. Sam Wittwer during a TFU playthrough together with a dev said that CW was top-secret at the time and they didnt knew anything story-like from CW and it was more the fun side project

He did Darth Mauls voice too

holy shit i never knew that, he's got great range

He also was in "Days Gone"

@@joefloggg3257 he was? Which character?

@@an-animal-lover Deacon St John

He always seems to make my day no matter what

Him and Cinemawins were godsent during Covid. I had enough of Cinemasins and its negativity (as well of the bullshit he does on the regular) so having people doing "wins" instead and celebrating what we actually love in movies and games are really really nice.

Both he and Cinemawins have that ability to make you think "y'know, maybe this game/film wasn't as terrible as I thought it was. I might even try it again with a different view."

@@ThompsonExpress To be fair, cinemasins also has its reason to be here with nit-picky comment aka pointing out random shit to make you laugh or go “well you’re not… wrong?” So basically cinema sins is for when you wanna hear “BULLSHIT” screamed because an ant walked by Cinema or in this case game wins is for when you wanna hear “yassssss i love it man” at the little details Sorry if this was a bit long but i just wanted to remind people cinema sins IS still heavily subbed to for a reason

@@MothGM Cinemasins existed because originally, it was supposed to point out continuity errors or goofs made in movies. Nowdays it just nitpick every tiny detail of the movie or just blatantly ignores important plot point to justify sins.

I feel like The Force Unleashed 2 shouldn't have happened at the end of the day. Not only did it end of a cliffhanger and get promptly cancelled but it took away the impact of the first. Despite my love for the first, I don't recognize the second installment.

Best i can do is switch port

This was the ending i took when i first played this game and damn was it satisfying to easily kill a beaten vader that i had to try and beat like 3 or 4 times in the first phase, also sith stalker outfit is great both general and hoth variants (tusken looks cool but not as much)

The ultimate Sith edition was for the game with the Sith Starkiller dlc included. The ending was in both.

battlefront?

@@charliedore138 Easily? You beat him easily? I had to look up how to cheat him, cause you can't jump.

Nah this is even better bro. There are only like three or four games where you can grab an enemy and just do as you please with them. Half-life series The best part of this game. Is just playing with the enemies. I wish their AI had more personality. If you force grip a storm trooper. They freak out, and wiggle. You can even slowly rotate and spin them. And unlike other physics engines, they’ll grab he’ll they’ll grab other troopers and hang onto them. Sometimes they randomly fire ooff their blaster. Very few games give you such good enemy interactions. But none pay so much attention to detail to a floating rag doll. I wish this was still cannon, but as a dramatic retelling, that way star killer was never so powerful. I like this origin for the rebellion best, and it makes a whole lot more sense than five people in a single ship, taking down the empire on a regular basis (rebels) there’s a reason the troopers can’t beat this dude. And finally the sheer variety and competency of the enemies is tight. Everyone jokes on storm troopers for being bad shots, but storm troopers will hit you unless you dash, jump around. Or block regularly. Then officers are just as weak but more accurate. Then finally, my boys, the scout troopers. The most competent troopers in the ot to the point they back hand Harrison ford as Han Solo. The empire’s elite snipers. They are extremely hard to break their laser lock, able to track you everywhere through every action, except your dash, and even then, they Re lock you as a target in about 5 seconds. Faster even. None of that pathetic “bad equipment, foodder, or 80’s bad guy aim.” I think the saddest part is how many of the trooper designs don’t carry over, and get replaced by absolutely terrible trooper armor. The jump troopers, float and hit you with a repeating carbine. Abs are highly nimble, they look industrial, tough like an elite and hardened storm trooper corp ready to ambush their enemies form above. Then the goof ass rebels version that EA and dice used. The storm Commandos are the peak, absolute peak of trooper design. My only complaint would be x they need to change the colors for different storm trooper units. Especially compared to how they only get pilgrims later. Then evo troopers. Perfect. Good for all environments, should be an exiditionaty force. Made even cooler by their super rare, shadow evo variant. Much better than trooper with, breathing appratus. Shadow guard need more love, and riot troopers form 2. Disney wants to do very little with its troopers or strap away from the iconic skull for more angular and sleek designs. Also GWs! You didn’t talk about the sheer encounter variety, trooper combinations. And the sheer variety and intensity some of the area s have!

@@saisundernarous9137 When i owned this game on console as a wee 6-7 year old i would pretty much just torture storm troopers with the force by throwing them into their buddies, or holding them in front of flying tie fighters. My favorite activity was getting them to hold onto ledges and then cutting them down when they hung there. Typing this out makes me realise kid me was an utter psycho and should not be trusted with force powers.

Not even in game physics were cool tho. I played it on the wii and I remember having so much fun using the wii remote as a lightsaber. I know there's a remaster for the switch so I'm hoping it's the same controls.

I was there when it came out in 2008. I watched all of the videos on how they built the physics for the in game.

I love how Vaders mask shows more emotion than any of the cgi cast of lion king😭

​@@vibeyjoint8345 While I agree with your statement, to be fair. Vader's mask is actually humanoid and is an a constant state of expression, that can be altered to an extent judging by his movements. Whereas with the Live-Action Lion King, they just literally recreated real animals that are incapable of showing expression 😂

"George Lucas really wanted this game to be a fun, "dial the Force up to 11" romp and damn do I miss that attitude when it comes to Star Wars games". I do too! George had the same dream and aim-for-the-sky ambition for this game as he did his original trilogy and it makes this game feel like real Star Wars.

euphoria engine was also being used in gta 4

Yep

Shhhh. The Star Wars "fans" will hear you calling out their BS logic.

The fact you think citing fucking TFU as a valid argument to defend something as hilariously satire-level as Kenobi is actually going to TEH PAWNZ TEH HATERRZZZ!!! is....simply beyond words. How the fuck do you function? How do you remember to breath?

@@sirmalkolm Its not cannon....also, the newer media is mostly poorly written and low effort.

Looks like Qui Gon should've just been more angry

"I'd love to see what could be done with today's technology in the right hands" Oh, it would be glorious

I’d love to hear your argument for why he’s not OP. I think he is, a little bit, but don’t mind too much because I get it’s a game about being OP, and it doesn’t affect the rest of the universe too much.

He’s definitely pretty overpowered imo. Just because he’s not literally the most powerful person in Legends doesn’t mean he can’t be OP. He beats Vader for christ sake

Okay let me rephrase that. He's not as OP as everyone says he is. 1. He spent more than a decade training under Vader, who was 80% as powerful as Sidious. His entire life, he was training to overthrow Sidious. He'd have an idea how each of them fought. 2. Vader's main weakness is electric overload, which is probably the reason why he didn't immediately murder Sidious following Padme's death. And Starkiller was very skilled at it. The speed and agility advantage probably helped too. 3. The Star Destroyer scene isn't as broken as everyone seems to think it is. Starkiller didn't pull it down, he redirected it as it was falling. And the novelization stresses that it required all his power to accomplish this incredible deed.

@@tommyscott8511 In the grand scheme of things yes Galen and by proxy starkiller are forces of nature in combat. But as a byproduct all of them such at basic jedi and sith things that don’t involve killing people. He fails to meditate, he can’t really predict the future, he struggles to connect with others through the force, so on. Galen/Starkiller is a weapon. He’s been trained since he was young to be that and only that. Another thing is he can’t really open himself to the force. The strength we see is his alone, but any time he needs more strength he can’t just tap into the force for more because his connection to it is so brute force.

@@cryamistellimek9184 That’s a fascinating examination, and expresses something I’ve struggled to before.

The temple DLC happens after the level on Kashyyyk where he finds his father's house. He goes to the temple to look for more info on him. He ends up passing all the Jedi trials to get to the great holocron so Starkiller by the end is an actual Jedi. In the PS2/Wii/Switch version, Vader sends you to the temple a couple times between the earlier levels to train and you go to a different part of the temple each time to complete a trial.

What boring backwards parents lol

Wii version had the jedi temple which was dlc on the psp version

PSP has arena, survival and movie duel modes on top of the main campaign. These modes are not present in any other version

@@blondon1368 Played the PSP version as well, it really was packed, it gave your powered-up Starkiller a lot more to do at the end. Probably a worthy trade for the poor recreation of some of the cutscenes.

It's just my absolute favorite thing when two or more characters voiced by the same person interact with each other

IMO canon way crystals work make it much more cooler and personal. Even spiritual.

I've always preferred prepare the new cannons way to have the sith corrupting the crystal because it's more personal that way that is. Well that's just my opinion of course

@@MardukeTheRaven That's totally fine. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I can't fault you at all for liking the canon version. The reason I HATE the new canon way color crystals work is because my first exposure to color crystals really came from _Knights of the Old Republic,_ which, along with its sequel, are not only my favorite Star Wars games ever made, but, in my opinion, the best Star Wars stories ever told. When Disney took over, they rendered that story that I love so much non-canon, and ripping away the way crystal worked, the ability to choose my saber's color was ripped from me as well. It just felt like Disney was taking everything, not just the big things, but even the tiny details. And that's the other part of it - sure, it's definitely more 'spiritual' to have the crystal attune to you through the Force, but I liked have the freedom to choose my own color, to change it if I found a rare color crystal that I liked more. With the new canon, you're stuck with a color that you don't even get to choose in the first place.

​@@SerathDarklands Well, the more you change, the more your crystal changes with you. Some Jedi during Clone Wars had their sabers colors changed, notably Ahsoka and Agen Kollar but I get it that some people want to have that feeling of choice. Also, a civilised discussion about Star Wars. Didn't think I would ever again get into one!

@@SerathDarklands I looked into the EU to see if Disney got "inspiration" from it when it comes to bleeding and purifying crystals and I'll be damned, they definitely did. At least in the purifying case. Jaden Korr purged the dark side from the lightsaber crystal of a Dark Jedi he killed, imbued it with a constant stream of light side energy and it eventually transformed into a yellow crystal after the process was complete.

The wii version is great

i have this on the DS and man it's a completely different game than the console versions

I know the answer is probably no, but is there any way to get lucky and obtain a ps2/ps2 games these days?

@@an-animal-lover I dunno. Look up your local retro stores if you can. Too many people online say “vIeW eBaY”. But the online retro market is both insecure to buy games in and you might see yourself paying a premium when trying to guarantee a quality purchase.

>few good Star Wars games >Battlefront (classic) 1 and 2 >Republic Commando >Galactic Battlegrounds >Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 >Dark Forces/Jedi Knight saga, all five of them >Shadows of the Empire >Episode 1 Racer >Episode 3 the video game, both console and portable versions >Lego Star Wars 1, 2 and 3 >Rogue Squadron 1, 2 and 3 >Starfighter and Jedi Starfighter >X-Wing/TIE Fighter series, all four of them >Super Star Wars 1, 2 and 3 >The Old Republic >Galaxies

Me too. I much prefer the ps2 version I grew up with to the Xbox 360 version

Also the show is really good I would highly suggest watching it. Love the content!

Jedi Survivor better give us more things to do with the Force. Maybe it was just this game spoiling me, but using the Force in Fallen Order felt boring at times
