I miss this game’s version of Yoda. The hover chair is so much better than hopping with a cane, and I love his walking animation with his lightsaber activated as he jumps all over the place.
I agree! They used the new Yoda for the first time in LSW The Original Trilogy, I always disliked it so much. But I think they made the change as original Yoda could glitch, like I did around 1:52:00 to get the minikit. Another way to look at it is: in Episode V and VI we can see Yoda is pretty old, sick, and not as powerful as he used to be. So making him as agile as Episode II, throughout Episode IV-V-VI doesn't make sense. They probably kept the change without thinking about it anymore and it got carried over to The Complete Saga. Maybe there are mods online to bring old Yoda back?
@@yourtypicalcupoftea Fair enough! LSWI just has so much nostalgia for me, which makes me rank it higher than LSWII. Another disadvantage of LSWII: it has less Jedi, for obvious reasons. Btw I did not struggle so much with the podrace and gunship levels when I was a kid, but others always complain about it! I've got a specific way of completing them and it works like 95% of the time.
I love it when you play the game right and do slams to get minkits. I honestly cannot stand gameplay that skips every minikit and just blows through the levels.
I remember playing this on my Gamecube with my Stepbrother. Sadly the game isn't available on the Xbox One. The sequel is, though I always preferred the first game. Thank you for this video. I miss this game.
Glad you liked it! I preferred the prequel game more as well. Yeah they took the individual LSW1 and LSW2 off the shelves when The Complete Saga came out unfortunately. True, LSW2 is still on Xbox, almost got all the achievements for it. But the only way to play LSW1 on console now is through emulation (or original hardware obviously).
The fact that you were able to 100 percent the game in 4 hours when it took me and my friend like 5 hours to just beat the main story is crazy. To be fair we did occasionally switch over to Lego Star Wars 2 during this and occasionally return to Negotiations to get some more studs so we probably could have wiped out the main story in like 2 or 3 hours.
@@MetalJuggalo Thank you! I think I did decent, just showcasing how the game should be played. I am working on a 100% gameplay of LSW2 at the moment, but it crashes often on Windows11... Might give up on it as it's so frustrating and just continue to Lego Indiana Jones.
@@TwitdoofGames Do you maybe know how I can download this game? I played it when I was young but wasn't able to finish it. Is there somewhere where I can download it???
It reminded me of the hours I spent playing this wonderful LEGO! I remember the stress I went through playing Gunship Cavalry and Mos Espa Podrace. I swear I didn't remember how noisy R2-D2 was, and I always played with him whenever possible.
My, what a bloody brilliant flight of nostalgia! Thank you for sharing this old chestnut with us, mate. It sure brought back celebrated and cherished memories from the past. I can still recall my baby brother and I having a lovely time playing this game back in 2005 on our original Xbox console. The memories, these feelings, the game, all such palpable stuff. I still own the game, as well as Lego Star Wars II The Original Trilogy, Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga, Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars and Lego Star Wars The Force Awakens. But nothing beats the thrill of the first game. I reckon Lego Star Wars The Video Game was ahead of its time in many ways; it essentially revolutionised every Lego game succeeding it. Apologies for the long, verbose comment. Again, this old English-Italian Doctor must offer you his thanks. This was a wonderful video, and an excitingly veritable trip to the unforgettable past. You have earned yourself a new subscriber in me, my friend. 👍✊ Grazie mille! Arrivederci, 👋 Giovanni Marino, M.D.🇬🇧🇮🇹
i've noticed three things "unique" to the PC version: one, in 1:08:24, queen amidala never smiles which isn't in ANY other version of the game. two, the PC version has bloom effects which isn't in ANY other version of the game, though it can be enabled if the setup detects you have NVIDIA hardware (it did for me!) and three, the PC version looks like a port of the xbox version since those two are the only versions to have the old furry TT logo and giant logos, with the NVIDIA logo being added to the PC version. PC also shared the xbox "studs falling through floor" glitch, but it was patched in the PC version and later copies shipped with the patch (i had said later copy, but i gave it away). sucks how PC doesn't support XInput with terrible support for modern PCs. if some modder could fix all this and add XInput support, PC would easily be the definitive version. but for now, in terms of "it just works", PS2 reigns supreme.
Wow didn't know all these details between the different versions, thanks! Studs falling through the floor glitch is something I have encountered a lot. Is that patch online available somewhere? Is it maybe part of the patch from the PCGamingWiki's website? Btw, I think I was able to connect a controller through Xinput many months ago, but it is really annoying and hard and doesn't work perfectly. Biggest problem I remember was getting the joystick to work. Might have used the D-pad instead for moving around. This gameplay was done on keyboard however.
@@TwitdoofGames yeah, the patch is on PCGW, might also fix some compatibility issues you're having. forgot to mention in my OG comment, make sure the game also isn't running over 60 FPS, that looks looks like the issue you had in your longplay at 51:42, it's listed as one of the issues on PCGW. i had to set WinXP SP3 to get the game to launch, but had no issues and bloom effects on my old gaming PC, which broke. XInput technically works with DirectInput, i've been able to use my wired Xbox 360 controller, i actually got my left stick to move but d-pad didn't work, and i had to rebind a few buttons. it's still a little weird though, you can't use buttons for multiple things like the console versions so you might get a little confused. all these details make me kinda miss my PC copy, are you gonna redo your longplay? mad respect if you do.
@@mokMan23Yeah I think the FPS was 60+, didn't know that was the reason for the few glitches/bugs in the game. Been encountering them since Windows 10/11. Also EpIII has some problems with the background music for cutscenes, especially in The Jedi Temple's and Darth Vader's level. Not sure how to fix that yet, maybe dropping the FPS will help? Will do a replay in future, but for my next video I wanna do a 100% longplay of LSW The Complete Saga, which will take me a while to complete though.
Yeah unfortunately with every new windows version new glitches and bugs begin, like getting to the last section of Episode I - Retake Theed Palace is really bugged (see 51:40) or the background music of some cutscenes in Episode III "re-loops".
@@TwitdoofGames It’s more than just that the game just barely really works. It installs fine and works fine the first time I play it, but if I exit out of it and start it again it crashes before the title screen its so weird. My LSW2 disc does not have the same problem
@@sup209 Did it work? If not send me a message and I'll try to help out. Btw, my LSW2 is more of a problem. It just randomly crashes on Win10/11 whilst in game, making it near impossible to complete it as I lose my progress so often which is so frustrating. Do you have that too, and if so, do you have a fix for it?
@@TwitdoofGames I don’t have my disc and computer on me at the moment. I can certainly give it a try next time theyre available and see if it works. Thank you.
@@agentbuckshot4697 Good hearing! Yes I modded it in! The original has music from episodes IV-V-VI if I remember correctly. The game was developed alongside Star Wars Episode III and released over a month before the movie, so TT Games did not have access to the soundtrack in time for release. They were able to fix it for The Complete Saga but only did for the background music and not the cutscenes.
@@TwitdoofGamesI was about to ask about that. Yes, I played Lego Star Wars I, II, and The Complete Saga quite religiously when I was younger, and I was always fascinated by the differences when transitioning from the original games to The Complete Saga.
@@miketurik9404 I never noticed lol. There are a lot of sound effects that got deleted or altered in The Complete Saga. I just 100% completed it, but didn't notice this one. Thanks!
@@501stlegionvadersfist3 Did you delete the SWLego.bin file in the installation folder? It makes the game crash. If you need more help, add me on Discord and I'll try to help you out.
Yes it's a known problem. Drop your FPS to 60, that might help. You can see that I slowly lift R2-D2 by keeping pressure against the edge. It works just in time before the "jump/flying" action runs out of time.
Thanks! It wasn't intended as a speedrun though. I am actually way slower than the number #1 100% speedrunner (1h52min). However, I just played the game the way I think it was meant to, the "standard-collecting-everything-you-can"-style and I didn't really use any tricks or glitches.
Hi there! I noticed you still answer to comments quite actively and I happen to have a problem starting my game. I got the game on disc and I installed it on Windows 10 but nothing happens when I press play. I tried running both the game .exe and detectGPU files as an administrator and run it as Windows XP (Service Pack 2) but nothing happened. I haven't even made it to load screen or just blank black screen so the game could create some kind of .bin file so that doesn't seem to be the issue. Any ideas how to fix like patches or something else?
Hey! Thanks for your comment. There is a patch available from PCGamingWiki's website. Search for LSW The Video Game. Under 'Essential improvements' there is Patch Version1.0.0.2, which should help if the game doesn't launch at all. Also make sure you lock the FPS at 60 max. I don't think you need to run the compatability setting for WinXP, so I'd say uncheck that. Hope this helps, if not, message me again!
Assuming you mean Sony? There won't be a port that's for sure. They created Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga, which combined LSW The Video Game and LSW II The Original Trilogy.
@@TwitdoofGames You can allways hope my frend After all, they also ported the original trilogy, so I wouldn't be surprised if they did the same with its predecessor
This isn't your fault. LSW TVG is just an old game from 2005 and doesn't run perfectly on Win10/11. I am aware of some issues with background music in a few cutscenes. I edited most of it, but fixing it 100% wasn't possible unfortunately. Maybe lowering the FPS to 60 could be a solution, but that's for a future video! This gameplay was 120 FPS.
@@Xbonqueque_07 Ah I see, I thought you meant the cutscene music in my gameplay video. Anyway, if you have any other problems with your ISO, I can send you mine.
I have a PC copy getting shipped to my house and in the comments they say it doesn’t work well on windows 10 and 11 and I’m on 10. Do you know how to prevent from it crashing every time I open the game?
It does work perfectly on Win10/11. This gameplay was fully done on Win11. The crashing comes from 1 file (SWLEGO.bin) that gives problems. It's created every time you open the game, but sometimes it isn't created properly. Find your installation folder (something like Program Files/Giant/Lego Star Wars and just delete the SWLEGO.bin file. If the game crashes again upon opening, check if it's been created again and just delete it. If you need any help, DM me on Discord and I can show you.
@@SonicFan1991-s4h If you want to play the game, then yes hahaha. The SWLEGO.bin file needs to be deleted, then it won't crash anymore until the file is created again. Repeat process if so.
@@Daisy23gaming Buy all hints and characters. If you wanna go crazy you can try and buy all the extras (the "cheats"). And in general just get all True Jedi + 10/10 minikits in all episodes. There are no red bricks in this game.
@@SonicFan1991-s4h add me on Discord (Twitdoof) and I'll try to help you out. I can always send you my original CD files (.iso) so you can install the game yourself!
@@SonicFan1991-s4h No they aren't illegal, as I said they are my own original CD files from 2005 compiled into an .iso file for preservation. This gameplay video was done on the original disc.
It should work! This was fully played on Win11. Does it not start up at all or does it crash at the "In a Galaxy Far Far Away" screen? Have you deleted the SWLego.bin file in the games folder?
@@ethansilverstein26 As far as I know you can't change the resolution, because the game will crash. The stretch didn't bother me too much, so I just kept it like this. You could try using dgVooDoo2 and force a certain resolution, but not sure that works!
@@Protroblade yeah exactly, these levels are the same, but it's just a different game. I didn't even know LSW The Complete Saga was on Android, so I just bought it, thanks for that! No worries, have fun playing!
@@mdk_meliodas840 By buying the original CD or downloading it from somewhere. If you struggle to find it, I can send you my original CD files ready-to-play, through Discord.
