CGRundertow STAR WARS EPISODE 1: THE PHANTOM MENACE for PlayStation Video Game Review

[@XTacoMangX]

The Tatooine levels were the best levels. Its literally one of the few video games where you can kill kids.

[@robotfreshpies]

The tatooine levels were the tits. Going around, exploring, talking to the locals and having them react to your choices was awesome. Also, you could kill kids in the game. Think about it, a Star Wars game where you could kill children. It was hilarious

[@Duelistjt1989]

This was my Grand Theft Auto back in the day :)

[@robotfreshpies]

Venkman777 Mine too...mine too...

[@brandonburnes]

Not to mention, the dialog is hilarious! "Have you heard of the Hutts?" - Twi-lek "I've heard they're incredibly obese." - Qui-Gon

[@moribund18]

It's mos espa 😊

[@HollowRick]

Stand back... As I'm about to... Slash all my price's!!!! :D

[@Jake_Lake]

NO WAY! The tatooine levels are amazing! I love messing around in those.

[@moribund18]

that fucking T-14 hyperdrive generator lmao. That level was so awesome it almost felt as if I was playing an RPG. And that's why I loved it. And it's not tattonine it was mos espa lol

[@potlick18]

This was my favorite game as a kid. It just so happens that tattooine was my favorite level because I enjoyed free roaming around and all that. That game had a big influence on Knights of the old republic for xbox which was my favorite xbox game.

[@andrewattenboroughtwothumb4697]

I remember playing this game on my ps1 as a kid and it was one of my favourite games

[@TheAdam159]

I used to own this game for PS1. Watching this review made me nostalgic for it. i miss it!

[@zanfear]

Then why did you get rid of it in the first place? Did you get it back in these last 8 years? It's coming digitally to PS4 and PS5 now.

[@pooperscoop54321]

I feel like mediclorians weren't even that bad. They already kind of established that there was some sort of genetic aspect with the force in the OT with the force being strong in luke's family. The thing I thought was really bad was annakin having a virgin birth.

[@superRuan1990]

The Mos Espa level made this game for me. Killing al of the cities inhabitants on god-mode.

[@Altaranalt]

Tatooine was the best part of that game! It has so many hidden secrets :D

[@coolnightskate]

I distinctly remember being at toys r us reading the players guide for this game. I thought it looked so epic. I remember reading the part about fighting darth maul thinking it would be so amazing. I never actually played the game since I didn’t have a PlayStation. Seeing this video now makes me wonder if this is even the same game... it looked so movie-like in the players guide!

[@mikeexits2]

I wouldn't be surprised if they just put screencaps from the film itself into the guide.

[@one7decimal2eight]

Still better than the current battlefront games by EA

[@GFrom]

I played this game a lot back then. It's been about 10 years or so, but I remember almost every level. Quite decent game.

[@nationalgord]

The part in the desert with all the droids was damn near impossible to pass.

[@chitownmo]

those who are old enough to remember this game was suppose to come out before the movie was released by a week. instead it did not come out for almost a month to 2 months after the film. I preordered it at Toys R Us(yeah that store) back in april of 99 and did not get the game until late june when it was suppose to come out in may due to some delays.

[@n1hondude]

OH THE MEMORIES!! miss this game so much ,,,, ;___;

[@TTParadigm]

I loved the Tatooine levels, just going on a murderous rampage in the town.

[@JudgeBane]

Super Star Wars was on the SNES. Also, you should check out Knights of the Old Republic on PC/original Xbox.

[@kingplutoxiao1]

Depends, really. What ages the worse are "realistic" sprites.

[@nicvasilchek9271]

I loved this game. I think it is the only game I still have holding onto it, just in case I ever run across an ultra cheap PlayStation. I imagined as a kid this is all that really happened and they left it out of the movie. It made the movie better in my mind. I love this game!

[@cerevor]

My brother got this after the movie came out. I never thought it was a masterpiece but I also didn't think it deserved the disastrous ratings it got. I thought it was an ordinary videogame, with all the motivating factors and immersion you could expect from the average action game. I think the "concept" would be a huge hit nowadays as an indie-game...

[@BronzeSoldat]

I had the PC version of this game and man it wasn't as blurry looking. I wish it worked on Windows 7 though.

[@16BitBrothers]

Of course I totally agree. I'm saying a 2d 16 bit game holds up better than a 3d ps1 game. Adore both systems but it was very early on in the 3d world where 16bit was a time where developers were very familiar with making 2d games. I just think it has aged better :-)

[@kaiserdragon33]

i bought 2 CD's of this same game and both had the same problems. crashed on a a specific early part of the game (about half hour of advancing on the story) so never finished it.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

I still find 16 bit 2D sprite graphics to be very appealing on the eyes but a lot of PS1 graphics look so fragile and jagged now. This game wasn't too bad, it was better than the movie anyway.

[@Cyan1d3PR]

Review "Masters of the Teras Kasi" and another Star Wars games which was a side scroller and you had 4 different jedis to choose from

[@acicon]

This Star Wars game was ahead of it's time.

[@GamingPalOllieMK]

The PC version looked pretty sweet from what I remember I don't care about Star Wars but this was an enjoyable game to me

[@mcrazza]

The film was not so great. The game, however, was actually pretty good at the time but unfortunately underrated. I genuinely enjoyed playing this game on the PSX back in 1999-early noughties. I don't agree with the reviewer about the "boring bits". I think the RPG elements helped to immerse the player further into the world, especially during the Tatooine levels mid-way through the game. The camera was mostly okay but the gameplay needed a rotatable camera rather than a fixed thirdperson view.

[@kingplutoxiao1]

Actually 16 bit(sprites) always age better. Its because they're sprites.

[@altdoom]

This game is childhood nostalgia !!

[@16BitBrothers]

16 bit has aged much better than ps1 gen. Still a great system !

[@HappyCloud1995]

I remember this game used to play it all the time when I was younger think I sold it though

[@acheron187]

I just played the marketplace level and killed everyone, I remember blowing people to bits with the grenades.

[@mbiastock]

Your reviews are getting better. Slow down. Relax. Conjunction-junction what's your function?

[@karcsi8900]

I completely agree. some gamers these days can be a bit shallow, In order for t to be a longer game they had to put those RPG elements- and one of those is getting lost =]

[@kittykat8901]

My childhood game :-)

[@bruciekibbutz2947]

i remember this channel

[@AstralFrost]

3D graphics don't age well, do they? 2D has an eternal quality to it, because it generally relies on art, and there's no concerns with clipping and aliasing, etc. I can go back and play Diablo II, or even Mario, and enjoy the visual style.

[@AdrianVereda]

Childhood :)

[@tmark66]

I preferred Jedi Power Battles. Awesome co op game!

[@AstralFrost]

I LOVED this game. I played it to death on my PS1.

[@NessLow]

I remember playing the at Walmart damn that was a long time ago.

[@moribund18]

NessLow and that's why I loved this. The satisfaction I got when I get to pass tattoine can't be replaced. And I was just 10 yrs old that time.

[@supersmashbro596]

*grabs your toungue* dont do that again (i hate jar jar!)

[@SalvableRuin]

may have not

[@mrSlobcat]

Look at the comments, EVERYONE ENJOYS THE SLOW TATTOOINE PART, that was the point, to get lost, find some easter eggs, use your skills without having to use a lightsaber, you lost me there man. If you wanted non stop light sabering, play jedi power battles.

[@rockfresh5359]

i had it great game sad to see people knock it comin of the snes as a child the game was amazing

[@MrDeathnotefan98]

depends on the game.

[@CaptainLumpyDog]

Dark Forces FTW Also TiE Fighter.

[@karcsi8900]

I am about to play this right now. next is power battles...just need to get my girlfriend to play co-op =s

[@bruhnisher5454]

There never an attack of the clones game was there

[@megamarsonic]

There was. It's on Xbox (and possibly PS2). I always see it paired up with Tetris Worlds.

[@OpticalFunkllusions]

TIE fighter = Twin Ion Engine YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID!!

[@16BitBrothers]

Fair point :-)

[@santisven]

This one was not good. They had to release Star Wars Episode 1 Jedi Power Battles to fix this, no that's a great Star Wars Episode 1 game on the PS1.

[@TheForever206]

I used to fucking love this game!!!

[@curri189]

Misa play this game as a child.

[@matijatu]

i loved the ps1 star wars games

[@MagicalPuddinPops]

Wow I use to love replaying the first level so I could kill TC14 over and over

[@qmto]

no.

[@Kayspaify]

well crash bandicoot is 2 years older than this and has much better graphics

[@MultiBr3tt]

episode 3 had a pretty cool game :I

[@RandomJin_]

This game was so awesome!

[@kcc85uk]

Great game I played the shit out of this game back in the day

[@EmeraldWarrior420]

The graphics look TERRIBLE, even by PS1 standards. This looks like a 1995 PS1 release, not a 1999 release.

[@Rilyn666]

I managed to finish this when i was younger, i cnt fucking stand the game itself though

[@goldensolder44]

This game pissed me off, some of the levels where hard to pass.

[@kallemick]

Okay :)

[@johnjay6370]

Dreamcast version was great with much better graphics.

[@kallemick]

Ps1 was 32 bit If it was 16 bit then it would be 2D

[@unprofessionalvids]

Still better than old republic

[@samwyse2006]

Sorry, I can't watch these videos. Emphasis guy really needs to tone down with the emphasizing.

[@dougbarrett619part2]

god i hated this ps1 game it still gives me nightmares if i find this game again im taking a hammer to it

[@MultiBr3tt]

yeah, look at crash bandicoot :)

[@MrDeathnotefan98]

I can tell you what ages the worst. Realistic art styles. they always looks ugly with time.

[@drgoodman8]

it was a good game

[@809Ollie]

decent game

[@MrTHECLASSICPRO]

Redlettermedia

[@torquetheprisoner]

i liked this game when i was cheating like mother fucker.

[@crazmobile]

Lego Star wars complete was much better.

[@kommanderskombat3339]

Ahhhhhh phantom menace! Kill it kill it now!!!

[@koolman195]

you may of not seen the crappy graphics but your brain did

[@finalshade14]

Game was terrible

[@marny129]

AWFUL game. Jedi Power Battles was badass though

[@TheSanz11]

your trolling right

[@joeyisjustso]

Terrible reviewer reviews a terrible game based on a terrible movie.

[@NFLDude56]

Fromsomeone who played the fuck out of this game. IT SUCKS!

[@richardhendrix8652]

first

[@ilcool90]

The graphics make this game unplayable today.

[@Nitrobotti]

No because I don't care about the graphics in games.

[@sammibism]

+Nitromian and I trust you like COD over BF too.

[@Nitrobotti]

Samantha Burch I don't play new games. There are so many good old games out there that I still haven't played. I don't have time for the new stuff. Btw I don't really care about fps genre.

[@FernandoDANTE]

God this game was awful.
