Happy revenge of the fifth! Today, our can of trash takes a look at Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith's game adaptation for the OG Xbox and PS2. Get your lava ready! Follow YungJunko on the twitter: / yungjunko
As a kid I remember asking my grandma for Battlefront 2 but instead she got me this - despite the initial disappointment, I was honestly surprised how much I loved this game
my boi Junko back droppin that Heat. another cool fact about this game, Hayden Christensen got a chance to meet with the game devs and asked them to do that specific block animation pose
Something interesting is that this game uses some tracks from Knights of the Old Republic II at certain points. For example, when Mace and Anakin's lightsabers clash in the cutscene before the Windu fight, you hear the small music bit that plays when a combat encounter ends on Peragus. And the Onderon/Telos surface battle theme plays during a few combat encounters in-game.
So I only recently completed KOTOR II and immediately recognized those tracks from the Episode III video game. I knew they were in there, but it was still nicer to make that connection.
Ima guess it’s cause it was cheaper to use sounds from other games, either way tho it was cool to recognize that. Win win for both the gamer and developers hahah
It will be extremely difficult to recapture the same magic that early LucasArts game studios had when making Star Wars games. From KOTOR to the Force Unleashed and Battlefront to Empire at War, you can tell that these games were made with upmost passion and care by their developers. These games were truly for the fans.
Probably because we didn't have to deal with the mouse, which rid us of the Expanded Universe to replace with their preferred version of what happened after the original Star Wars Anthonology ended 😔
I actually don’t recall ever seeing a commercial for this game. I was just part of the “spoil me for episode III” gang on the Jedi council forums so I knew everything of SW back then. I worked at blockbuster at the time in high school and got unlimited rentals but man, I remember taking this game out the first weekend it was at my store and played all night until I beat it. My eyes felt like they were bleeding and my hands/thumbs were sore for two entire days. I also completely forgot about the mobile version of the game, I had that on my Razr and man, it was awful. My entire comment carbon dates me…but I lived in the golden age.
hey man its mothers day and its always a rough day for me so it was really nice to lay in bed and watch this. literally laughing through tears while watching. thanks for making this and please keep it up.
Totally agree. The perfect rental game. Had a blast with it as a kid. Not ashamed to say I played the shit out of this and Lego Star Wars before Episode 3 came out. Great video once again Junko!
I loved this game growing up. This movie was so big when it came out man. My mom took me and my brother get out of school early to go see it. The Lightsaber duel mode is so underrated
My Midichlorian Romance is an insanely good joke. I like how your humor is actually funny and doesn't rely on vulgarity or random/ADD-type jokes like most gaming channels.
Bro you on some other level stuff with the humor. My god this channel is bomb That whole Lego episode 3 door skit was so out of left field and you went out into your own world where it barely made sense at the end, I love it lol
I found this channel like 3 months ago it is so damn good! Been waiting for a new video. So good I remember my friend I'm 6th grade gushing about this game when he first got it
Your content somehow manages to peak all my entertainment interests. And you kill it in every video, w/ something for fans of all sorts of stuff. Only a matter of time before a bigger audience follows. Keep it up man!
Holy shit dude that comic with Darth Vader all in white. I remember way back in the day I picked up that comic off of a rack at my local convenient store, and I was so confused when I got to that last page. I had no idea what in the world was going on. I think that was the only Star Wars comic I ever had, so it was super weird seeing it in this vid.
One of my absolute favorite games from my childhood! The alternate take on the events of the film, and especially the unique enemy models, has stuck with me to this day.
2:01 I haven’t watched the rest of the video yet, but I have to say: That bit where you synced up your “So, like any good virgin, I waited” line with that clip of Ki-Adi-Mundi (I don’t know how his name’s spelled) got a good laugh out of me. 😂
Best channel on RU-vid bro, the fact your only 2 years older than me and like all the same shit makes your videos really hit the nastolga better than most channels! Master Junko your our only hope on RU-vid for quality content
I just want to say holy crap, at 4:11 The sound you’re using is lifted from Star Wars trilogy of the force I think, for gameboy advance! I was playing that a couple of hours ago, that’s so trippy man anyways awesome video as always!
I absolutely loved this game and was thrilled to see this review. Some of my friends and I would play the multiplayer together and it really did feel so smooth. The additional content was also really neat
That MTV star wars music video hurts my soul seeing anakin dance around like that... especially to that song. This video really makes me want to play this game. I want a new, good star wars game so badly... one that follows the darth vader comics would be pretty badass
Remember how Revenge of the Sith the DVD doubled as a demo disc for Battlefront 2. Also, I loved the Jedi temple level in the ROTS game. It was like the Jedi were mini boss battles you can dual
This game meant so much to me as a kid, ever since I watched Star Wars I’ve loved it. I played this game so much and thought it was amazing with the visuals, and combat. Still some of the best combat I feel we’ve gotten.
FOR THE SOLE FACT ALONE THAT YOU HAVE INADVERTENTLY REFERENCED AN INSIDE JOKE WITH MY NERD CIRCLE ABOUT ME BEING CONFUSED IN THE MOVIE THAT THEY SAVED _WAT TAMBOR_ FOR LAST (they literally cut back and forth and back and forth to the Mustafar massacre scene yet Wat Tambor scrambles off to the background), AS MY FAVOURITE SEPARATIST WITH A FUNNY VOICE YOU GET MY SUBSCRIPTION
Junko.... You lied to me!!! You told me you let Watt Tambor live and didn't slaughter him!!! You were supposed to save Star Wars, not see the alternate ending and leave it in darkness!
Oh, well didnt i get lucky. This is my first time catching your videos as they're uploaded. just wanted to say your channel is pretty good and I hope to keep watching more. thank you for making content and have a great evening. Be good to yourself.
Bro, last I checked you had 15,000 subs, and now you’ve doubled (or should I say your powers have doubled since we last met?)! Congrats! You’ll be blowing up in no time!
He's got the potential to go into the millions for sure. His style and editing is already very good, if he output more videos the algorithm would be all over him
I remember being stuck on the Count Dooku fight for a long time because I was a smooth brained child who didn't understand what the fuck Boss Patterns were.
This game was phenomenal back in the day. My siblings and I played the heck outta the multiplayer and the co-op mode. It was really a gem. I wanna go back and replay it
I actually own the ps2 version of this game. It's not fantastic, but it's pretty good. Combat system is deeper then you would think. Great boss fights. Worth a look
I still go back to this game from time to time, and it holds up. The lightsaber combat is great, and I love how it expands on certain parts of the movie. There are alot of classic Star Wars games, and I think this one is among one of my favorites. Nostalgia or not.
I remember my friend rented this game one weekend from blockbuster. Told me pretty much how Anakin was defeated. I was 12 years old at the time so spoilers didn't concern me back then, I was just so hyped for anything starwars. Excellent vid, I feel all nostalgic now
I feel like this channel is gonna go the NakeyJakey way and totally blow up pretty soon! In the mean time I just want you to know that I'm really loving your content!
Anakin had a severe obsession with stabbing people in this one. Man shanked his enemies like it was going out of style. Dooku: *Stab* Windu: *Stab* Nu: *Stab* Drallig: *Stab* General High-Ground: *Stab* The Senate: *Stab*
