I love the sheer audacity of killing Obi Juan and then killing his Force Ghost. It’s so stupid, yet so incredible.
I appreciate that they wanted to visualize the whole line where he says "If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine." But I wouldn't have chosen the idea they went for.
"If you choose to face Vader, you will do it alone. I cannot interfere."
It's still goofy fun though and I have so many fond memories of playing it over and over again! 🤣
Obi Juan hahahahaha
Hey why are you talking about my Star Wars FFG rpg character?
@@Camaraocompao help me obi Juan, your mai only hope
@@Sarah_Kinz ayuda me obi juan Kenobi Eres mi unica esperanza
SW character: I have Plot Armor
Starkiller: No, you don't
Starkiller has plot-armour-penetration rounds
The Sith outfit for starkiller in the first force unleashed is still the coolest sith outfit imo.
My favorite version is the ‘Dark Lord’s Armor’ from the Hoth mission, although I think the Dark Apprentice’s ‘Jedi Hunter’ outfit from the Endor DLC is cool too.
@GalakStari the normal sith stalker amor from the dark side ending is also very badass, where u can see his right arm is painfully connected to his Metal arm
Yeah it's really underrated.
It can be seen in the Andor series!
The sith stalker armor is my favorite piece of armor in star wars, it tells a story with it's design and just looks brutal and boss!!!
Starkiller, the only person in the Star Wars universe that goes "I don't care that you're dead already, I'll kill your ghost too" and then actually does it.
The Chuck Norris of Star Wars.
Oh, in SW universe. I was gonna mention Oblivion where you kill the ghost of an old woman that you assassinated prior.
Fun fact: during the Tatooine DLC, you can actually crush the rancor under the door like Luke does in the movie, and you even get an achievement for it at least on the Xbox version.
How?
Just go through the door
Lol
How do i get the DLCs? I only have PC Version Ultimate Sith
@@Proelium1995 I think you have to just start a new game, and then there should be options for new stories like Hoth and Tattooine
Fun Fact: These DLC were based on a old What-If comic book series called Star Wars Infinities. They had one for each Star Wars Episode of the original trilogy, and this one seems to be based mostly on the Empire Strikes Back version, where Luke dies in the cold of Hoth because Han Solos Tauntaun dies before he reaches him. So with Luke dead, Leia is trained as a Jedi instead.
But these stories are pretty good and worth a read. If just to see Yoda crash the Death Star into Coruscant.
Ok why is Star Wars Infinities not on Disney plus, imagine how cool that would be
@@nc4254 probably because it’s a comic series 💀
@@nc4254 using the clone wars animation
I... okay, to see who crash what into where now?
@@jasonking7570 They're so fun
Absolutely wild hearing Dee Bradley Baker voice Boba Fett , after voicing all the clones of his father , but temuera always getting to voice boba
Agreed it is always Tem or Daniel who do Boba’s voice.
Now he even gets to star as boba irl
These DLC feel like mods made by the community since they just seem so unreal. A gem of the time.
I think it's funny how Leia talks about how Luke fell on Hoth, but that was a completely different timeline and Starkiller lol
Maybe by fell she meant he died?
Well there is a story in legends where Luke dies on hoth because Han couldn’t rescue him in time during the blizzard so Luke freezes to death and Leia gets trained as a Jedi by Yoda instead. So it’s probably following that story
@@grandstasis1878 Makes sense. I could see that.
I think by fell she meant how he died.
Could just be implying that the dark clone star killer simply followed the same path as the cyborg starkiller and just offed Luke on Hoth
What I loved about George Lucas being in charge of Star Wars was not only could he take criticism, but he also knew how to have a sense of humor and to joke around with his property.
George Lucas loved satire,I mean we wouldn't have the family guy parodies now with disney in charge
Saying that George Lucas could take criticism is hilarious
@@jacksonallen5667there's a difference between criticism and unecessary hate.
I don’t think he cared about shit like this, he’s been pretty open about his dislike for the EU
Rumour has it that one of the DLCs for FU 3 was going to be a fight between Starkiller and Lando . Apparently Lando would turn all of Cloud City into a giant weapon, and it would have ended with Starkiller sending the city plummeting to the center of the gas giant
That would've been fucking awesome.
God... I wished the Force Unleashed got a third games.
Oh damn that’s terrifying and metal as all heck
If nothing else, it was really great to see Leia as a Jedi. That was a hope I was holding out for in the Disney sequels, but sadly the closest we got was her Force feat in 8 and the flashback of her saber sparring with Luke in 9.
I'm glad they didn't' make her a Jedi. Even in the EU she was a Jedi for a bit but really didn't do much.
Yeah it was cool seeing her become a Jedi in full
the leia as jedi thing is stupid..she was never truly trained..yes she was meant to be the last hope if luke failed, but not as a jedi, as a force sensitive diplomat that could unite the galaxy against the empire.. its the very reason obi wan stayed to train luke, and leia was sent to alderaan to learn politics (dont count the shit obi wan show, it reeks of kennedy stank).. she had her own path to follow as one of the greatest diplomats in the galaxy, she couldnt devote years to sitting alone being trained by luke, the new republic would never have been formed... i know disney's convinced all the "new" star wars fans that you can be a super duper ultra special jedi just cuz you got bobs and a vajeen, but hell, even the "chosen one" was trained by all of the jedi counsel over many years and luke had both obi wan and yoda... although based on how bad obi wan is in his own show, i guess that doesnt mean much anymore... but i just count that as another "disneyfication" that will hopefully be ignored one day...
@@arcadianlhadattshirotsughW33Z go outside
@@loweydude220 Why?
I'm shocked that you didn't include footage of Starkiller punting ewoks into oblivion. There's an achievement if you kick ten of them.
It is funny when you like stab Obi wan in the heart and chuck him into the engine, and then he says "You can still turn back to ths light" right before you torture and mutilate his ghost
Ben is a good man
@@Starwarsdude8221991 He is a real softie
* This game may be fifteen years old but...* Almost had a heart attack, It's already been this long since It came out? Sweet baby Jesus!
The struggle to realize you are not young anymore
@@guilhermehank4938 I mean I’m 19, still young but still crazy that it’s that old. Crazy man.
Was my first game on the 360.
Linear time
@@RichardKolkaII yea
You see, this is probably the biggest reason why the George era is so fondly remembered in retrospect. While the Prequels had their weaknesses, so many of the extras (the video games, the cartoons, the good bits of the Expanded Universe) were just that f*@king good.
Just look at the EA _Star Wars: Battlefront_ (2015), if had fewer features than the ten year old Pandemic Games original. _Star Wars: Battlefront II_ came out better, but only after being patched to Hell and back.
It's cool how Jedi Leia's outfit looks similar to Episode IX Rey! Even down to the yellow lightsaber
Disney just copying it. They only can stoles ideas as true parasites.
Leia seems perfectly fitting as a Sentinel, Rey as well, so it’s fitting.
2:03 That's a rancor, not a sarlaac. The sarlaac is that big hole with tentacles and a beak out in the middle of the desert.
i was just about to comment this
There was a special move in the Endor DLC called Sith Punt. You could literally force pull Ewoks towards you and kick them a hundred yards away with the force. 😂 I loved these games.
Fun fact - several assets used in this DLC repurposed from Battlefront 3/4. Leia’s robes, the Hoth troops, Chewbacca, etc.
As of my favorite - it’d have to be Endor. TFU II’s combat was a massive upgrade, and Leia is probably the best balanced boss in the whole franchise. She’s fantastic to go up against on even the hardest difficulty. Doesn’t hurt that her DLC is only a dollar as opposed to the whopping $10 USD for each individual DLC of the first game.
That’s cool that some elements of battlefront 3 and 4 at least survived through this dlc
Battlefront 4? Wait what?
@@autosaver I don't know if it is true or not since it is so random and silly but apperently after BF3 was cancelled some very very early concepts for a BF4 was made. Look it up on youtube there some videos on it
@@autosaver I think they mean the EA Battlefront games
@@autosaver bf3 was almost finished and the 4 had only concept arts, in the 4 it would have been alternate universes like sith windu or redeemed vader
Dark, bad ending AUs are always fascinating in small doses. The edge tends to grate if they stick around too long
Absolutely agreed
LotR & Dragon Age are prime examples
@@fenrirsrage4609 Agreed x2
It's hard to choose. All the DLCs are great. Though the Jedi Temple wins by presentation and because you fight Imperial Special Forces backed up by snipers and Dark Troopers. Then you fight yourself!
I would've loved a whole game set in the Forced Unleashed 1's alternate universe. Starkiller's armor was so badass and we would play the badguy throughout the whole experience. You rarely see that.
If we're ever lucky enough to see a Force Unleashed III, the alternate timeline DLCs could have us fighting characters from the sequel trilogy
Nothing would make me happier except Finn and Poe I like them
Well, clearly Kylo Ren & the Knights of Ren & the First Order wouldn't exist. The only other possibility is that either Palpatine kept his granddaughter in that version, somehow, & trained her to take Starkiller's place, or Starkiller has a vision of her while taking out the Emperor and hunts her down.
Not gona happen. Not under Disney. :(
That would allow us to get rid of the sequels for good haha
It would be so satisfying to eviscerate Rey!
It was somehow really fun to crush Luke. 😂
Edit: I like now that Starkiller's Force Lightning is purple. It used to be blue.
4:25 I remember me and my brother would leave this QTE on repeat just to hear Obi Wan make those weird ass noises lol
I really want to see Starkiller take on Dexter Jettster. Maybe throw a 50s style jukebox at his head.
i loved the jedi leia dlc, it seemed like the most creative way to make an alternate universe that seemed actually believable
You missed the Jedi temple dlc, also the crazy amount of skin packs they do which alter cutscenes. You can be Ackbar in cutscenes in force unleashed 2! Might make for a fun video
I would kill to see a Director's Cut of The Force Unleashed 2 or Force Unleashed 3!
The Force Unleashed III was cancelled pretty soon after TFUII's release, around early 2011. The development of TFUII was such a disaster BTS that Lucasarts never recovered and was just a shadow of its former self.
Lucasarts had a real problem with rushing games sometimes. TFU 2 clearly had so much story left to tell and it was very short. KOTOR 2 got rushed as well and hamstrung as a result, though it's still incredible despite that.
In fairness, it was also a victim of the Disney buyout
@@yourlocalchaosgoddess TFUIII was already long dead before the buyout.
@@DarkraiNewmoon People like to try and blame Disney for anything they possibly can.
@@EresirThe1stdidn’t Lucasarts wanted kotor 2 out by like Christmas and that caused them to scrap so much even though the restored content mod a lot it’s definitely not what it could have been
The dlc was hilarious yet interesting
9:00
I mean, there was still Lando he's pretty much like the only main character left by that point. lol.
And Yoda.
@@Jeustful Oh shit, good point.
Actually coulda been a sick boss fight.
@@scottmemelord6130 yeah, it could have.
I wish there was another DLC that you could have Luke as your apprentice and fight with him and go after the remaining rebels
One thing that i remember about the x wing cannos is that if you throw a lightning at it, it actually shoots
It was honestly pretty cool to be able to see how things would turn out after the Dark-Side ending. As, the Light-Side ending was considered the canon ending.
5:05 I love how the Gonk Droids always get some kind of respect
Great video, the one thing I always loved about the dlc’s is that you can punt jawas and ewoks across the planet it’s great.
Loved that waving too
He defeated a force ghost,just imagine how powerful he actually is.
Both games deserves a remaster or at least an update to improve their performance on modern computers.
I'm sure this has been mentioned in the comments already but I did a quick scan and didn't see anything. @2:04 Jabba sends you to the Rancor pit. The Mighty Sarlaac pit is where you will be slowly digested over a 1000 years. Jabba's got a lot of pits.
You forgot the best part of the dlc: the C-3PO costume
4:08 "So you have a DLC for me?"
"Yes Sir I do!"
"Pitch meetings references are tight!"
Force punting Ewoks in Force Unleashed 2 was always fun lol. I liked the second one most I think. The dlc where you go to the Jedi Temple was pretty cool too.
The endor cutscenes are rendered in engine so you can achieve some pretty funny results depending on the skin you're using. Personal favourite has to be the guybrush skin
What kinda results do you mean? Just some small glitches or what?
@@Giantpotatoeman. nah more funny than anything, facial animations not working so giving a dead eyed stare
@@connorchenery977 aaaahhh gotchu. I think I remember that happening one time and didn’t think anything of it because of how old the game is
In The Force Unleashed 3, Starkiller finally eliminates the emperor. With Palpatine gone the true threat to the galaxy is revealed. Darth Jar-Jar. Find out what happens next in The Force Unleashed 4. Preorder now to get the History of the World Part 2 tie-in ship Star of David.
Fighting Ben Kenobi with the Darth Maul skin feels kinda good.
Thank you for this video.
These DLCs were some ofthe most fun, I've had in any Star Wars game. Thank you for the nostalgia.
lol Disney would never allow this. (Which is ironic, since they treated Luke much worse than Starkiller did.)
Don’t forget they Jedi Temple DLC! That level was so good they just put it into the Wii version with exclusive boss battles!
Force Unleashed III: The game where you pull down an entire FLEET of Star Destroyers
Force unleashed dlc is probably the closet we could get for a sith focused game (besides TOR and KOTOR)
Oh cool I just finished up your other videos the other day about the Star Wars games so this is perfect
A few tidbits:
-The Ultimate Sith Edition of TFU1 on PC/Xbox/PS3 has all the DLC from the get-go.
-USE is the only version on PC AFAIK.
-Speaking of which, TFU2's PC port never got the DLC like the consoles did, unfortunately.
Yep.
Incredible video! I loved the first game so much and I had no idea about all this 😭 amazing
Can't wait for Star Wars episode 3 video game. Plz do it buddy and the Lord of the rings return of the king.
The Force Unleashed was the first game I ever had for PS3 and I had an absolute blast with it and it's dlc's . Did multiple playthroughs of the base game and Tatooine and Hoth ones. One I noticed you didn't mention was the Jedi Temple dlc which was great as well.The second game is alright but way too short.
Fantastic video. Really miss this era of Star Wars.
looking forward to the return of the king video, but I'll happily accept a star wars video as well!
Imagine if dice wasnt a slave to making bf clones with the starwars licence and they could use that engine to tell stories like these
I honestly think this alternate timeline should have been the focus of the entire series.
No clone stuff or anything like that for the second game. Just have it be the alternative version of a New Hope
Still to this day love going back and playing the force unleashed and it’s DLC.
I'd love to see a video of you covering the different versions of the og Lego star wars
Thanks, it's already in my Steam account and downloading right away. Great review!
Had amazing dlc but the cliff hanger endings really bothered me back then since we never got an conclusion for both TFU1 and 2 dlc and man it was a bummer.
Love these videos
The absolute paradox of the RotJ dlc is kind of hilarious. Like, Leia references Luke falling in the Hoth DLC when you fight her on Endor but the Hoth DLC takes place in the alternate timeline where Vader dies but then he's alive in the Endor dlc for FU2?!?! Makes no God damn sense lol
i think maybe with star killer still alive during esb, the events are similar to the other alternate timeline.
In the FU2 dark side continuity, it’s simply assumed Han couldn’t save luke on hoth, ergo, Leia became a jedi
He died freezing to death on Hoth.
Hearing Dee Bradley Baker voicing Boba Fett is so cursed. I know it makes sense, but still, even stuff like Battlefront 2 let Temuera do it. Although kind of cool that Leia is Catherine Taber, who is their go-to Padmé voice.
Thank you for reminding me that not only when Lucasfilm was bought buy Disney we got a massive drop in quality in what was being made as well as an EA exclusive to the games but we also missed out on Battlefront 3 and the force unleashed 3
These games are ridiculous, but still really fun. Force unleashed is how to do a power fantasy correctly
I'd love a mature dark star wars game based around Darth Maul and his missions for the Chancellor in secret when no one knew what the sith were planning
It got cancelled.
Did you read the comics? You'd probably love the Dark Horse comic where Maul slaughters all of Black Sun before the events of the Phantom Menace (yep, he killed Black Sun back then too just like he does in the Disney canon) lol
These old SW games were just on another level, lethal af.
The ragdolling of the force unleashed games were always amazing
8:00 What a nice foreshadowing!
i enjoyed these dlcs, i also enjoyed the boss fight of the jedi trials dlc, basically starkiller fights darkside version of himself and the "you can never escape me" one of my favorite lines in the first game
I like the Tatooine level best because it ends with two boss battles on the trot. I also have a fond memory of it because it came out the same day as the Joker dlc for Batman Arkham Asylum so you could play as the Joker and fight Boba Fett in the same evening.
Wow what an Era of gaming
Fallen luke is pretty dope with the red lightning
I have a feeling Starkiller’s gonna regret taking Luke as his apprentice in the hoth DLC because he’ll most definitely grow much more powerful than him. Just another story for dark side Luke to take power and a Jedi Leia to stop him and save the galaxy
I love dlc of hoth because of lord starkiller armor is dope costume is my favourite
To be honest, I remember the Endor DLC having the most amount of dislikes during the Golden age of CZcams
To be honest it was probably because we weren’t expecting our favorites to be taken out just like that. That was at least the case with me, and when I looked back at it, I just told myself that was honestly the main reason and was hoping for something else.
I don't hate dlc.
@@VITAS874good for you?
I loved this dlc A LOT! The whole game would be crazy awesome this way
Thank you for this amazing video! I am almost sure that the FU2 DLC is based on an abandon FU1 DLC. Plus it is the best level of the entire game
Did Han Solo’s death scene really predict TFA, or was that TFA shot really trying to reference this DLC?
And then there's Leia's white garb and yellow lightsaber look that Rey evokes at the end of the sequel trilogy...
I think it just means that edgy 15 year olds don't have very many unique ideas.
I mean considering how much stuff they just outright lifted from Legends while saying "there is no source material." or whatever, basically pretending they had no content to work with.
Probably.
Alot of it just felt like "Lie while ripping off existing content and just hope nobody notices."
He was stabbed on "Starkiller Base," what do you think?
After considering all the references, I think they were just hoping no one noticed. I admittedly didn’t until a couple of years ago, but after looking at all the small details and stuff like that, definitely took from the dlc. No shot they just so happen to come up with all this stuff and call it a day.
4:33 his hand looks so bad ass
2:22 this was something I learned about recently, pretty cool
god starkillers hoth outfit is amazing
Did Rise of Skywalker take the idea of Rey having a yellow lightsaber from the Force Unleashed II DLC? Leia even looks like Rey!
Fun fact: In the endor dlc, you can punt the ewoks. Not even joking, you can straight up punt them, and there's even an achievement for kicking i think 20 of them
How the fuck did I miss these until now. This is incredible
This is like the marvel What If series, I’d like to see more of that in Star Wars
Starkiller throwing Luke into an air speeder is so Injustice core lol
they had to have taken inspiration for the sequels from that leia fight and that han fight
I like that the obi Wan fight had training droids
8:17
"I've been going through some old photos and it look's kinda familiar."
I love it both and I love Star Wars what if so infinity about
alternate Star Wars
2:45
I don't know, it always sounded like that robot enjoyed it
Just a little tip. You can pick up the grenades that people throw and force toss them back, if anyone didn’t know
Totally amazing DLSs!!!
Bought TFU again after seeing this video, I bought the Jedi Temple DLC for Xbox 360 when it came out but never played it. Now playing all the DLC finally!
Now I have to get another PC to play this again. It was friggin awesome!
