The Yoda laugh from that game is ingrained in my mind.

Revenge of the Sith was such a classic game. Not all of these were “great” games but they hold a lot of nostalgia for me. Jedi Power Battles!

Revenge of the Sith always felt like somewhat of a spiritual successor to Jedi Power Battles for me. Absolutely love those games! Deep cut: it always irked me that Adi Gallia was sort of replaced by Shaak Ti on the Jedi Council in terms of importance, because Adi's killed off-screen. Her character was mad fun in JPB.

Theres a guy I just found on youtube that does an amazing audiobook version of the first 2 RC books. They never made an official audiobook version of any of them but the production quality of the one on youtube is as good as the other Audible star wars audiobooks.

These made up a bulk of my childhood gaming. Along with Halo 1, these got me into gaming. I remember wondering what else was in store for us after the Force Unleashed since the new tech was gonna give us good Star Wars games. Boy was I disappointed when we barely got anything and any projects I heard about were cancelled. Disney giving EA exclusive rights to make and publish Star Wars games was another slap in the face. If you want some more Star Wars nostalgia. Some of the movie DVDs come with Xbox demos with ROTS having a build of Battlefront 2, Clone Wars Vol 1 (if I'm not mistaken) having an early build of Battlefront 1, etc.

While there are two shows named after the Clone Wars era, one from 2003 and one from 2008, both of which aired on Cartoon Network, Pandemic's The Clone Wars actually predated both of them, instead being a tie-in to Attack of the Clones. This was the very first time we saw into the future of the war before the dedicated project that spawned the Tartakovsy show, the Dark Horse Comics, and many other media like Republic Commando that's on display here today. I can confirm that it is a tank sim first and foremost, and the controls are not simple. I wasn't aware there was another version, though. All I could find was the Tetris bundle

The Bando Gora...

As someone who grew up playing Star Wars the Clone Wars and Halo CE a lot, those games made for some of the most fondest memories of my childhood especially with the multiplayer modes. I must confess that I always ended up skipping over the last Rhen Var mission with the scary ghosts by getting my brother to do it instead 🤣

Jedi Starfighter was my first PS2 game. I can still vividly remember the night when my parents took me to walmart to buy the console and this game. Very deep and fond memories. I was disappointed to see that it's not available on PC. I havent played it since 02-03 and would love to give it another go.

Star Wars Phantom Menace was my first ever real video game (after pinball), followed closely by Racer. Used to sit on my dad's lap and play every Saturday. I've since replayed both multiple times, great memories.

And all the younglings today wonder why us old gamers are nostalgic for the past. Sure, the graphics weren't life-like, but these games had so much personality to make up for it.

I really enjoyed Star Wars Obi Wan, I beat it a few months ago and didn’t have any nostalgic attachment to it. It’s light saber combat is actually pretty fun. I think I may be the only person out there that likes it lol

I have very fond memories of that game . Just you and me like it .

Always felt like i missed out on jedi academy. I did play the absolute hell out of jedi knight II: Jedi outcast though, the multiplayer was way ahead of its time.

I played nearly all of these on Xbox as as kid. If it was StarWars, I bought it. The StarWars games were the reason I wanted an Xbox and then I didn’t really play anything else for years until I bought a PS5. This was really cool to see these all in one place again. I’m 27 now, and I wish I’d never let go of these at the garage sales through the years.

Jedi Starfighter was my favorite, Adi Gallia became my favorite background Jedi because of that game and the comics about the pre-prequel era

Unpopular opinion: Revenge of the Sith has the best lightsaber combat in a game. Jedi Academy is great but it's super frenetic. Jedi Outcast is a lot of rolling around and slashing people in the back. Looks amazing though 🤷‍♂️. Thoughts?

Jedi academy is one of my favorite games all time

- Revenge of the sith actually has some pretty decent saber combat, (played the PS2 and GBA versions, enjoyed both) - I haven't finished Republic Commando on PS4 but that game speaks for itself, - Love the Force unleashed, am now playing it on switch which is a completely different game.

The PS3/360 version of TFU has 9 levels and can be beaten fairly quickly. The switch version has about 10 hours of gameplay apparently, and I have yet to finish it. One small gripe about the switch version, you can't use the force to throw enemies upwards, and the euphoria physics are a little less present, meaning enemies don't ragdoll as humorously. That said the boss fights are better overall, there's motion controls, and it runs buttery smooth on switch.

Overall it's a star wars game that is worth playing.

Very enjoyable Matty, thank you for the positive look at each! It's fascinating to me that initially the then new prequels were absolutely loved to death once out at the theaters, then over time fashionably hated along with the incredible author Mr Lucas himself simply for committing himself to creating them & now they are slowly becoming kool again. Time has shown the 6 masterpiece & complete original movies are the best & stand the test of time as they should & the games left behind based on the prequels have much to love, I own them all proudly!

Man the Episode III game is such an underrated VS experience. Just a lot of fun with the PS2 version back in the day.

I have such fond memories of The Clone Wars on GameCube, such a fun game. Also a while ago, my brother found his PS2 copy of Jedi Star-fighter in his room. Old Star Wars games are so unique and I can’t wait for my physical copy of The Force Unleashed on switch to arrive.

cool videos mate. love the box details, and overall it’s a complete - and nostalgic - guide to all these good and not so good games. Even for Star Wars die hard fans like me it’s useful cause I didn’t got to play them all, so it’s a source to discover some cool gems. Only nitpick here, the PS2 Episode III game deserved more screentime! What an enjoyable and well crafted title, for a tie-in it was a surprise. For Jedi combat lovers it was one of the most satisfying games.

Republic commando would be a super awesome VR game. Maybe a special mod to turn it into Death Troopers

There is answers of the cliff hangers in republic commando the legends books, they made a full book series on the game starting from the beginning of the game to I think the start of the empire

Jedi Power Battles, OG Battlefront, and Revenge of the Sith were the games I most associate with.

Force Unleashed 1 & 2 are so fantastic! I just started collecting PS3 and these were some of the first ones I went after. I played these for HOURS! Fun times man!

ROTS was the first DS game I owned. God I loved it and play it on my 3DS every now and then. The unlockable ships (iirc) was my jam.

Great retrospective

Love your channels bro.

The Clone Wars was my first video game. The Clone Wars/Tetris bundle came with my Xbox when I was about 6. I have fond memories of staying up all night with my dad playing the multiplayer modes. Playing it as an adult, it’s only about a 4 hour play through, but it mentioned cool lore, and was the first time we saw some vehicles in the universe. The droid tank that shows up on Kashyyyk in BF2 and Episode 3 (the movie) first appeared in this game. Despite being a short game, the story is quite good. I’m glad to see someone finally mention it.

The original clone wars game slaps. I beat it on all difficulties and got all collectibles back when I had no access to guides on KZread, just me myself and I.

Even tho it was skipped, Star Wars Pod Racer on N64 will always be a personal favorite of mine ❤

Revenge of the Sith was such a good game. The ps2 one was amazing, but also that Game Boy game was and is so fun.

For certain instances in games where I want to directly point something out that I did not capture, we will use a clip available on KZread. As for tools, I use an HDMI adapter for my GameCube, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and N64 to allow my El Gato to record those games in HD. PlayStation 3 needs a specific splitter to disable HDCP otherwise you couldn't record any gameplay off that. 360 works as is. So yeah, just an El Gato, your respective HDMI adapters, and a PS3 splitter :)

DUDE I ABSOLUTELY LOVED PLAYING THE CLONE WARS GAME

I'm obsessed with the racer and tis sequel

Genndy Tartakovsky made an objectively incredible Clone Wars and the CGI Clone Wars wouldn't exist without it. Anyone who watched and loved Samurai Jack should watch the 2003 Clone Wars series just because you can feel Genndy pouring his whole soul into it. I will say though, it isn't the one that people don't really know about, it's more of the one that people forget about until they see or hear about it. I was like four or five when I first saw the 2003 Clone Wars series and I still remember it fondly. I think most people who watched Cartoon Network and Boomerang have glancing memories that they just forgot they had. It's kinda like Evil Con Carne, everyone forgets about it until you mention that it was a Billy and Mandy spinoff that had the evil admiral that Grim was after and a stupid bear housing the brain of an evil genius and then suddenly the memories flow through them.

The Clone Wars was an interesting one as was before both 2003 and 2008 series and I loved that at the time.

Star Wars Pod Racer is a gem 💎
