Star Wars: Bounty Hunter (2002) | Breadballer Retrospective

[@breadballer]

Hey everyone, thank you for your continued support and kind words 🙂 I've just posted a follow up video containing clarifications, corrections and other things I missed in this episode and the Battlefront episode, all of which came from comments you all have been posting. It can be viewed here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWTGqJ6YfrOSjNE Thanks again!

[@grannytoes7221]

Two cool details about the game you may have not known, Hayden Blackmen also had some hand in this game (he's most famed in star wars for the Battle of Jabiim story as well as The Force Unleashed). He made a tie-in prequel comic, which showcases Jango's time as a mandalorian, from his initial time joining them as a child to the end of the Mando Civil War. You can unlock this comic in the game, actually! Secondly, for eagle eyed people out there, they may have noticed that Komari Vosa's lightsabers are the same as Ventress'. After Jango kills her for Dooku, he later gifts them to her as seen in the 2003 Clone Wars micro series. Just some cool tid bits i love lol

[@breadballer]

Ah I figured there had to be more than a coincidence that she also had two with the curved hilts. The only episode of the 2003 CW show I remember is the one where Obi Wan gets sucked up by that bounty hunter and then explodes out of him. Cool tidbits.

[@SwedishNationalist]

@@breadballer it is worth giving a watch

[@RyeBreadGangster]

The story had no right to be as awesome as it was.

[@RoyalKnightVIII]

I think that's a by theme with Star wars ancillary media. Often others would take Poppa George's weird ideas and make them work elsewhere

[@plissken94th57]

In todays world, all it would need is a gameplay overhaul and it would be game of the year material. Obviously modernize it as well. Kinda wish they’d remake the old Star Wars games kinda like how capcom is doing with RE: so many classics can be done that way

[@AlexKaneROTN]

Some damn good gameplay design, and good writing.

[@j.m.marshall669]

Those freaky melee Bando Gora enemies I remember were VERY susceptible to fire, so the flamethrower came in clutch when clearing them. I'd let them come to me and burn them down when they walked right into my flames. Also, did you know there was another little cutscene where if Vosa kills you, it plays a little moment where she decapitates Jango. I played this many years ago on the PS2, and while it was enjoyable I agree it could be extremely frustrating, especially as you progressed further into the game. The Coruscant level was always my favourite because it's one of my favourite planets in Star Wars, I enjoyed the vibrant colours, the ambience and most of all scanning for bounties amongst the citizens. Sometimes finding and marking a particular bounty was difficult because they would be hostile, and you can't move while using the scanner. This game also never really gave you that 5 million credit bounty, it doesn't show in your total earned credits in the stats. What would have made this game better would be an upgrade system/skill tree, you could spend credits on upgrading your armour, weapons or jetpack, and maybe fiding those golden feather secrets would allow you to receive a permanent buff such as reduced detectability, faster movement, no fall damage, increased damage for primary blasters, less accurate enemies and maybe even gradual health regeneration.

[@AnonymousSWAT]

I can only imagine if we got a modern interpretation of a game like this, a la Jedi Fallen Order, with all those bonuses you mentioned and even some customization. I imagine 1313 could have been something like that.

[@j.m.marshall669]

@@AnonymousSWAT it could really dive deep into the bounty hunters guild, but it wouldn't necessarily have to have you play as Jango and or Boba, you could create your own unique hunter, pick from various species each with unique strengths and drawbacks, pick your own name maybe, and purchase weapons and equipment from a vast selection. Games like Fallen Order and Survivor prove that good storytelling in Star Wars isn't extinct and if we had a Mandalorian-esque game it could be fantastic.

[@AnonymousSWAT]

@@j.m.marshall669 Hopefully someday friend. With all those great ideas you mentioned it would be a Star Wars game for the ages.

[@sunsetman22]

my so-called strategy for bounties is simply scanning everything and everyone from a distance. eventually you'll find the perps.

[@echochaser1319]

Fun fact: Jeremy Soule, the composer behind the music of The Elder Scrolls III - V (Morrowind - Skyrim), created the original music for this game. You can really tell with the main menu music in comparison to TES IV Oblivion.

[@Xpwnxage]

He did Kotor too, which is an amazing OST.

[@UnyieldingMass]

Ah yes, your profile pic tells me you are also mass

[@greenshoesguy1]

Great video. I haven't played this game in about 15 years, so it was nice to visit again. Montross is voiced by Clancy Brown, so every time he talked, I only heard Mr. Krabs. The bloopers in this game were great, especially with Montross. "mmm...there is something in my nose..."

[@sunsetman22]

I'M ON DA HUNT

[@CymruJedi]

Your reviews are really funny. I hope you cover more Star Wars games in future because they are a great laugh. Nice to have a fresh perspective on this old classic from my childhood

[@bwags4618]

I finished this game recently it's a lot of fun, a blast from the past. It holds up really well, but it could use an upgrade

[@Potacintvervs]

I love the humour in your videos. I loved the subtle joke in the beginning of you grabbing the gamecube controller and capture card only to switch to Dolphin on your PC

[@breadballer]

That was actually a USB adapter for the controller, which I did use while playing via Dolphin

[@dphylan]

So glad I found this channel!

[@jetpoweredtricycle]

oh man i remember renting this game from blockbuster so many times. great fun

[@egiese3]

8:35 This is the exact spot and reason why I gave up this game when I was a kid. Frustrating and just didn't have the brain capacity at the time for the patience lol. Thanks for the video, now I get to see what I missed.

[@KimJongBeIllinDaily]

Wow, I rarely hear this game mentioned. I had this when it came out, I was 11 at the time. I played this game until the disk had reading issues. The prison level was probably my favorite. I remember towards the end how difficult it was, I have no idea how I managed to beat the game at that age. The Bando Gora cultists creeped me out, and I uh, liked that final bosses outfit too. Great game, I really should play it again sometime, it’s been 20 years.

[@jimbeaux89]

One of the best Star Wars games, hands down.

[@chrisjohnson7872]

I love stuff back from the Star Wars Multimedia Project made for the Prequels. Best worldbuilding project.

[@MackenzieBay]

This game was AMAZING as a child. Played it in PS2. Still have it.

[@GP.Records]

The Bando Gora are like Grass-Type Pokémon: their weakness is fire…

[@VisionarySea]

As a guy who played the hell out of this as a kid, the controls were dope. So fun on ps2. It was probably clunky but I can’t say I noticed at all. The lock on was so fun, the sniping missions, the jet pack puzzles and the fact every level was like a puzzle all its own… and the story will always be my head cannon for Jango, so fucking coooool!!!

[@User-s9r7x]

& now we’re getting a remastered version for current gen

[@dominiquezamora3970]

Gotta take advantage of the front and back flips to deflect blaster fire!

[@JayS96Bruh]

At the end of level 3-2, the last group you fight in the cave is actually Meeko and his friends. There’s yet another bounty on that guys head.

[@breadballer]

I just went back and watched my gameplay and I ended up nuking the whole group with a rocket. That’s pretty cool though

[@Mextlatec]

​@@breadballer can you do a retrospective on Onimusha Warlords

[@sunsetman22]

what's more, he has a huge 10,000 credit bounty on him. who put that forward? the guy who got his ship/speeder stolen by him at the beginning of the game LOLOLOLOLOL

[@JayS96Bruh]

@@sunsetman22 I never considered who would have placed the second bounty on his head. That’s hilarious

[@andrewrivera190]

Actually it’s the guy he stole the Borhek (arena beast) from.

[@Peebles.]

The game doesn't explain this for some reason, but if you jump while locked on you'll do a flip. During this flip bullets bounce off you and deal no damage, and you can shoot while jumping. Ends up looking pretty silly though as jango is just flipping all over the place and shooting lol

[@breadballer]

Damn I definitely remember doing that a few times but had no idea it deflected fire. Definitely would’ve used it more if I had known that lol

[@ThePsh07]

I remember using cheats as a kid and unlocking/reading all the bonus comics in the game. When i saw all the mandalorians, i was stoked that there were more characters with Jango’s cool looking armor.

[@SirDenzington89]

This would be a great candidate for a remake. It’s still one of the best Star Wars stories told outside of a movie

[@pistolbobcat420]

Oh Tusken Canyon, the level that separated the bounty men from the bounty boys And about Vosa, haha yesss, you wouldn't see a costume like that in disney wars

[@sunsetman22]

based Archer cat

[@christianwalton7080]

I'm not sure if it was only a PS2 thing (the control scheme was better in that than the GameCube at least) but flamethrowing someone for even a split second was an insta-kill for them. I went ballistic on the melee cultists with it so they never bothered me as soon as I began bathing them in flames. Might help if you ever wanna replay it.

[@breadballer]

Would’ve saved me a lot of headache in that last chapter lol. If I replay it I’ll definitely try that

[@anythingIwant.]

Lmao the lack of flamethrower in the end chapters were killing me

[@WildFungus]

I loved this game when it came out, glad you liked it. I can't stay for a dry overview of information I'm already familiar with but glad you had fun.

[@GreggValue]

This game was cool as hell as a kid. The story was really well done and the cutscenes looked amazing and still hold up today. One of the most underrated SW games imo. Glad I got to grow up in the early 2000s SW media golden age

[@VirtuallyVexed]

Really glad I found your channel, man. Really enjoyed the video. I played the hell out of this as a kid both on Gamecube and PS2 (Controls were a lot better on PS2) and loved it and its story. Just a few wee things that came to mind when watching it your video. 1. In the second prison level on Oovo IV just before you get to your ship that gets blown up there is a mining room you come into with some prisoners in it. If you use the Bounty Scanner you can see that one of these prisoners is Meeko from Chapter 1 and it is the game keeper from Roz's station that put a bounty on him for getting his beast killed in the first mission. 2. In Longo Two Guns (the bane of my fucking existence back in the day) I could never complete it as a kid and the one time I did I was on my last life and I died but just a split second before I died I had got the killing blow on Longo so the cut scene triggered and I was okay. 3. With the Bando Gorra on Bogdan I found the best thing to do for them was hang on ledge and shoot down or use your flamethrower to burn them to shit. Thanks for these videos man I am really enjoying them and look forward to seeing how the channel grows. If you pick up some more views you should defo get a discord up and running or something. :)

[@breadballer]

That Longo Two Guns level was definitely tough. I struggled as an adult, I can only imagine how frustrating it could be for kids. I gave up on the flamethrower early on but I could see it being useful against the bando especially when they start clumping up at the end. Appreciate the stories and kind words!

[@VirtuallyVexed]

​@@breadballer Anytime!

[@jamesadlington4242]

36:34 if you keep punching the dragon, you can punch it to death and skip the whole level.

[@ryang2531]

Awesome in depth review dude. Loved this game as a kid. It was so hard now i remember why

[@wonkehcheetah1138]

I loved this game as a kid! I used to play though this game over and over lol. I never beat the final levels tho, as the Bando Gora soldiers used to freak me out too much lol. My favorite levels was Level 7 "The Break in" and Level 8 "The Break Out". I haven't watched this video in full yet, nor have I managed to play the game again, so I hope this game still holds up (or at least seems to hold up lol). Edit: I'm gonna continuously edit this comment as the video goes on (I'm a little drunk as of writing this, and I've made it my project for this particular drinking session to describe and compare my experience along with this video). I'm gonna try to type in when I'm typing this stuff out actually. I was like 8 or 9 the last time I played this game, so I'll be running purely off of alcohol enhanced memories. In terms of controls, I played this on the Ps2, I don't remember the controls being as Wonky as you described, but the gamecube controller was a wonky controller tbh. I mean it has more handles than I have hands, as I am (sadly) not a mutant. The Dart things are Kaminoan darts, they appeared in the movie and are super toxic in the lore, I'm guessing that it's kinda like a death lazor in it's ability to instantly remove single enemies. I didn't know that Tom Kane voiced the angry customer trying to buy the speeder. I remembered that line, "I WANT MY MONEY BACK" after all these years and didn't know it was him lol. In the first few chapters, the fight with Meeko, memorizing every single bounty in the Coruscant levels, the fight with the gunship at the penthouse I do remember really fondly. Although, while I remember the chime of capturing the bounties with the wrist rope thingy, I don't remember also having to instantly delete them from existence by walking into them lol. Out of all the early levels, I only remember fighting Montross in that first fight only a few times, that may have been due to the fact I was a little cheating Heathen when I was little. (only in singleplayer games, don't worry, I didn't plague your cod4 servers with aimbot, only my 12 year old voice chat lol) I for some reason love the sound of Jango climbing, they really nailed the sound design of him climbing across various bars and whatnot. I don't remember the climb up the tower being as labyrinthian as you've described, but that fight with the gunship was one of my favorite moments in the game. I totally forgot about that rapid fire grenade launcher you used to destroy it though, what a good memory to re-remember. The game really did have some satisfying feeling weapons from my memories. Eyy, 'The Break in'. I remember why I loved this level, it was the first one I got the jetpack's rocket launcher! I loved blowing up clustered crowds of enemies with that thing, or just single enemies that inspired my Mandalorian wrath lol. For a second, I thought Sebolto was literally a reskin of Meeko, but no, they just wanted to keep using their Muttani assets as much as they could (Meeko was sent to the prison colony of Break in [I'm also looking up wookiepedia as I'm watchin this video to fact check myself lol]). Fun fact, Meeko's species, the Muttani, only appear in this game (outside of reference books and magazines). The nigh-unintelligible elevator alien, is known as Wim Smoot, who's species is called the 'Peripleen', which like Meeko's, only appears in this game. Huh, I don't remember the ending of 'The Break Out' as well as I thought I did, maybe the bridge section also defeated little me. I do remember 'The escape' and destroying the reactor things tho. For some reason, I don't remember the boss fight of that level ( I do somewhat remember the cutscene, so I must've beat it at least once), maybe I was just a little Goblin who just liked those levels treating the high amount of enemies like the Doom Slayer, then gave up once I needed to do some weird parkour or taking falling-to-instant-death risks to explore random corners idk. Huh, I don't remember acutally playing the forest level, only from watching the game demo that plays if you idle on the main menu, or select it from the bonus screen?. Prolly Lil Goblin me skipping this level due the freaky Nexu attacking me (I didn't actually have to search the wookiepedia for that one, I'm just a star wars nerd :P. ) I do remember the sniper rifle, as I remember playing the later chapters, one on Tatooine perhaps? I remember there being a Hutt and a rancor you had to fight maybe? Okay, so cheeky little me just skipped the forest level, as I DO remember Zam taking my sniper rifle, and I do remember all the bridges and gaps. I don't know why I thought Tatooine would be in this game, maybe it'll come later? Idk. I do remember that downed bridge that you kept falling on, and I did eventually figure out myself how to get across it. I somewhat remember the throne room fight with Sebolto. Okay, I only sort of remember the death stick factory. I might have tried it, but the challenge averse little me was just like: "Naw, I wanna capture Meeko and escape space prison repeatedly." Or perhaps this part of the game really was that difficult. Actually, I do remember those conveyor belts, which means I prolly did figure out the sliding pipes at one point. Not so much the wooden walkways with the Bando Gora snipers. I don't entirely remember the Montross battle. Part of me wants to remember it, but hey, I was a little cheat, so that might not've been a factor. I would like to Mention that Clancy Brown, the voice of Mr. Krabs (as you may have already realized), voices Montross. So, Jango might be enemies with Spongebob in another universe. AHA, I DO REMEMBER GOING TO TATOOINE. Fun Fact, Longo two guns, of the species the 'Clantaani', is yet another race made entirely for this game in specific. It makes you wonder, did the devs have something against established species such as the Gran, Gungans or even the Nemoidians perhaps? Or maybe they just wanted to have fun? Who knows? Also, is it me? Or does Montross have a weirdly shaped head? Seriously, He's like 90% forehead, is he part egg? Wookiepedia claims he is human, but I have a strange suspicion he could (or would for the more morbidly inclined) make a fine omelette. I do remember spending an unhealthy amount of time as a child walking around inside the Slave 1. I always loved that ship, and I guess I wanted to explore it, even if it was really just a single hallway with a powerup or 2. While I don't remember Jabba, I may not have really watched cutscenes, because I was a little menace that just wanted to blow stuff up. I do remember taking a sniper rifle to some Tusken Raiders, and I do remember the name 'Gardulla the Hutt'. Huh, Jango can fall into a Sarlaac Pit; Like Father, like Son so they say. Okay, so it wasn't a rancor, just a Krayt Dragon. I guess video game rancors are just for Jaden Korr of Jedi Academy fame to fight. I do remember Jango fighting the Dragon, but I only now realized he just fed Gardulla the Hutt to it like some Don Vito Corleone type maneuver. My goodness is that cold. I think the rocket guys in the fight are supposed to be really angry rocket resupply points, but I could be wrong it's been a long time after all. THIS PART OF THE GAME. Roz was the badass Toydarian Grandma we all wish we had, but she went out like a real one. RIP Roz. I'm pretty sure I blew up Montross a few times in my day to avenge her. This is the part of the game I couldn't get past as a kid, I do remember herding the Bando Gora back to my ship, parking myself on top and blasting them from the safety above while they impotently attempted to tear my face off. However, once I actually had to progress through the level, I usually stopped. I did watch some cutscenes from the later levels though. You gotta love melee enemies that cannot climb waist high obstacles. Why do I remember this part? I don't remember ever clearing it. Oh god, did I watch a video playthrough of this game years after I stopped playing, but years before making this very long comment? HOW MUCH OF MY OWN MEMORIES HAVE I INVALIDATED?!? As much as I wanted to say I fought Montross myself and watched him get torn apart by the Bando Gora to avenge my flying grandma I never had, alas I cannot say. I do remember watching the cutscene with Vosa and Jango, but I can't say whether this was from a cheat for the last level, I do remember actually trying to get through this level though, as opposed to the one's before. Maybe it was because watching my boy Jango get tortured filled me with determination or it seemed a bit more well lit, so little me wasn's too chicken to proceed, the world may never know. I do remember that one ledge, that you had difficulty jetpacking up from for some reason. I guess I got stuck there as well lol. Holup, do the Bando Gora start praying the moment they destroy you? I mean it makes sense, with them being a religious dark jedi cult and all, but I wonder what they're praying about. I can picture it now: "Ayo, Dark Jedi God or whatever, I just killed some mandalorian badass that offed like 1000 of my unlimited bretheren, can I get a free coupon to Tatooine Dennys or whatever?" and their god is like "Sure, this ending isn't canon anyways, have all the space pancakes you want."

[@wonkehcheetah1138]

I completed my review but had to split everything into a second comment, as for some reason youtube wouldn't let me post it in its entirety. I do kinda remember the final boss with Vosa, but I don't remember the arena being so small. Okay, so I actually managed to get to the final room...I think, considering I may have watched a video walkthrough at some point in the past...for Raz's sake... I do remember the final cutscene, for all it's worth. I don't remember Jango also having an Egg Head, like Montross. Is it the helmets? Should I consider all unhelmeted Mandalorians that don't look like they have a baby chicken/duck crawling around inside their skulls as non-canon? This is gonna affect my views of the Mandalorian show from now on. Eyy I got to the end. For as great of a final cutscene as it was, I love how low key the final score is. It's got some mad Big-Rigs "You're Winner" energy. Tbh, I prolly would have some serious difficulty making anything better, so I won't hold it against the game. I agree with your final assessment pretty well. I could see from the way the game played from the footage that it had some solid weight to the controls, without being overly stiff, just the way I remembered; and while I skipped huge sections of the game, it was more because I was just a little cheating Goblin back then than anything. I've been meaning to dig up an ISO to play this game from my childhood. I'd like to thank this video for giving me the confidence to know, that it was more than just nostalgia goggles. All in all, I'd like to thank anyone who decided out of either curiosity, or masochism to read through the drunken ramblings of a Star Wars fan who grew up with this game. While I did decide to subscribe to this channel, I don't plan on making any more comments of this nature, as a nice wine to get drunk off of (and of sufficient quantity to maintain my buzz throughout a 45+ minute video plus typing and editing time) isn't the cheapest or healthiest thing to do. I'd like to wish everyone, even those who can't read this a good day/evening and to do what Jango Fett would do, because I mean he did become a donor to an entire clone army for being the best, so how badly could things go? Anyways, Farewell and good luck!

[@breadballer]

Thanks for the write up! Always fun to hear about how people remember these games

[@roguesquadron521]

Rolls and flips when locked on to enemies help a lot in this game; makes you briefly invincible to blaster fire. The flamethrower is also a godsend when you get mobbed in close quarters by enemies, especially Bando Gora. Also when jumping hanging on a ledge/rope/etc, if you don't' want to just flip to the other side, just press the jump button again instead of climbing up. Jango will just leap off (I grew up with this game and its little nuances, lol). Good review!

[@jesusfernandez974]

Really like this game, it's has an interesting story before attack of the clones, just a really awesome game this is, cool video 👍.

[@ColvyMolvy]

Second attempt at Temuera's name was spot on bro. We just call him Uncle Tem here in NZ lol

[@IamSupreme333]

This guy reminds me of my days of watching AVGN. Good stuff. Cussing on point. I love it

[@leviwarren6222]

The fact that Disney bought the Star Wars IP and declared bounty hunter non-cannon does not make bounty hunter non-canon. As I'm fond of saying, you could buy the Mona Lisa and have every right to paint a mustache on her, but the mustache will never be you part of the Mona Lisa.

[@SaiyoNot]

This game actually really confused me as a kid because i didn't understand how Jango could kill Zam in the film when they developed a friendship in this game, Jango even saves her at the end and carries her out like a hero would. Later at the school Library of all things i found these boba fett jr novels that actually explained the conflicting feeling Jango had and how he was actually really sad about it. It was ok closer i guess but it's pretty clear that this tragic story was kind of reverse engineered from the opening scene of the film. Although based on the current canon from Disney Jango hasn't had much characterisation besides being reconfirmed as a real mandalorian in "the madalorian" ( after being stated as an imposter in the second saeson of the clone wars show) which is a shame. I think Jango has a lot of potential but disney doesn't have much interest in any pre clone wars stories besides thier new high republic series set thousands of years prior

[@roguesquadron521]

I agree, and I loved how this game humanized Jango (same with the comic that was included with the game). I loved Roz as well and how she kept encouraging Jango to find something to live for besides the money. She could see deep down, he was a good person. I never saw Jango as a villain in AoTC, just a "simple man trying to make my way in the universe." He was loyal to Count Dooku, and you can see why since without him, Jango would have never gotten a son to pass down Jaster Mereel's True Mandalorian teachings to.

[@AustinH7]

Even in the clone wars TV show when Jango was said to be a fake mandalorian, it was by a traitorous politician who was just trying to pass blame away from himself being affiliated with Death Watch if I remember correctly. So not exactly a truth telling dude 😂

[@jdmills123456789]

This was one of my absolute favorites when I was in jr high school. I’m surprised you glossed over the darts- they are by far my favorite part of the game, since you can snipe people (at least in the GC version) from essentially the limit of the map draw distance by using the “first person” aim mode. When I got good enough with aiming, I would take out tons of the harder enemies with it before they were even aware of my existence.

[@ianmorgan6097]

Hey man keep it up with this great content, your last 3 videos made me a subscriber. Great commentary and in depth reviews. I played all these games back when I was a kid, and I think these retrospectives on games are fantastic.

[@rhyslynch8336]

i really enjoyed this and the battle front video keep it up duder!!!

[@Ginnpis]

I love this game so much, the controls are definitely easier to manage on the ps2. I remember playing this game before I even knew how to read lol, so it was a challenge to make it past the main menu. I don’t think I made it past the first chapter back in the day. I revisit this game every year or so just to get in some Jango action. It’s a crime how underrated he is. Awesome video!

[@anythingIwant.]

I like your videos vibes, a nice mix of AVGN, Ross game dungeon, and your own thing

[@TJ-wt9op]

Just found your videos. Fun to watch man, looking forward to your future videos

[@spookyman5468]

My favorite Star Wars game. Quick note on some parts of the levels...in 3-2, you can find jetpack fuel in the enemy spawn points at the end of the long walkways, making the fly between them way easier and more reliable. In 4-1, at the end when you have to make those crazy jumps to the part where you snipe to protect Zam, you can actually find a button inside the brown building to summon the skiff, which will take you to the next checkpoint

[@darklord9581]

I kinda hope they make. A new Jango Or Boba Fett bounty hunter game. They could even add Casa Bane and Fennec as playable hunters. Or a Mandolorian game

[@Tenchi212]

Not only was this the thing that made Jango my favorite Star Wars character, but it was also what made me a Star Wars fan in the first place. While not the best third person shooter out there, maybe even below average for the genre, it will always be a feature of my PS2 collection.

[@blackopsrulz47]

Love your commentary. I watched your retrospective on bf1 & 2 as well and it really brought me back. I really enjoy your style of commentary, especially on the games we all love and grew up on, please keep doing what you do. I would love a video on Republic Commando if you find the time.

[@Extaun]

Nice video man, keep up the great content!

[@gregorybentley5707]

Awesome last three videos! Give us some more please my good sir

[@chrisandrew7577]

This game deserves a remake or sequel

You know what man, you do some great work.

[@Nikelaos_Khristianos]

Don't worry, I speak "Oovo IV Inmate-Speak", something like... "Couple years back, a smuggler from Balthasar said he was rescued from Bando Gora by this beautiful Jedi-girl..." Komari Vosa 😮

[@Gamingwithahandicap]

Can’t wait for the episode 3 game retrospective! :)

[@LeKretch]

Omg I played this game so much but could never get past the 1st level. I always thought that dropping down that sloping tunnel would kill you so just walked around upstairs for ages! Can't believe thats all I had to do.

[@BobsBazookas]

Rented this game when I was a kid on PS2 and I gave up. It was unreal hard for me at 7-8 years old

[@PopeRogerFree]

I definitely gave up very early as a kid when playing this game. Mostly due to not knowing where to go.

[@astroguster5522]

I played thru this this year and it was awesome. Makes no sense why there isn't a Mando game with boba..jango...anyone. jet pack, star wars, blasters..sounds fun to me

[@ignorethis214]

After EA got exclusive rights to the video games, rather than having TONS of Starwars content, propelling it in the public's mind, we have almost nothing. Something like half or more than half of the Star Wars games EA works on gets cancelled, so we don't get anything unique, just a few generic titles.

[@High_Key]

Jango Fett’s my favorite Star Wars character. Loved this game and everything about him

[@chrisburns514]

Love this game, still play it today. The last chapter terrified me as a kid lol

[@chrisburns514]

And yeah, the GameCube controller is an abomination, use a DualShock lol

[@sirtickleshitz]

This game on GameCube was my childhood and it was absolutely amazing, it gave you everything you wanted with story, gameplay, challenge and then some. I just don't remember having any issue with the controls

[@1hungrygrizzly]

Absolutely fantastic content of the bygone Star Wars games that we all have that lovely nostalgia for!! Please can you do Star Wars The Phantom Menace video game? :) I know its a bit older than this one but I still have misty eyed love for it even after playing through its clunk controls years later

[@breadballer]

Seems interesting. Might be a bit hard to track down/find a way to play it but if I can then I'll definitely consider.

[@PotentialLegend]

As a Maori from NZ I can confirm, you pronounced Temuera's name perfectly this time!

[@lvl-3bot]

Man i hope your channel grows big.

[@Capper_Bra]

i dont give a fuck if its not cannon. Disney cant say its not cannon when it already was cannon. This game is cannon

[@fantasyskeep]

Gamecube was absolutely a powerhouse. 7/10 GC games are native 60fps.

[@breadballer]

Interesting. I guess due to CRTs being low def and the nature of most games being simpler/kid friendly I always assumed it wasn’t as good as Xbox/PS2.

[@fantasyskeep]

@Breadballer very true! Nobody was looking at that. I think at the time, (I was 7 in 2001) we were all just so impressed by the next Era of 3D graphics. Framerate was never a concern unless it dropped below 15 fps.

[@vruxdrossgaming]

Bit of a helpful tip. Anytime you fight the Bando Gora it's best to use the flamethrower because once they're on fire they can't hurt you. The Flamethrower is very effective against them.

I don't understand this channel is not more popular

[@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009]

This game has an serious problem of places that you are supposed to go and places you are not supposed to go looking the same There is no difference So a lot of places that look like background are actually the places you are supposed to go Everything looks out of bounds

[@SovermanandVioboy]

The gamorrean guards in this game look better than those in Book of Boba Fett.

[@jamfrancis]

Very very very nice video

[@powercou]

I wanted to love this game so much as the art style is so on-point that everything looks and feels like I imagined Star Wars to be. On top of that Jango is just one of the coolest characters to control and play with. A well written story, cool bonus features etc etc but the controls ruin it all. I made it to the conveyerbelt level and just couldn't do it especially with the 3 life cap. I really enjoyed your Battlefront review and this one as well. One pointer i'd like to give is to avoid recapping the whole story to pad the runtime. To be fair it's one of the things that has been plaguing youtube for a bit now but I much prefer it be as focused on the gameplay and historic context as much as possible and i'm sure many would agree. Looking forward to you doing the Jedi Knight series if you're planning on doing those. I'd vote for galactic battlegrounds as well (the star wars age of empires) if that is your kind of thing.

[@breadballer]

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind for the next single player game I do

[@Ps4icho]

I just finished the game and then watched your video. I noticed that i have used the flame thrower way more often. Works really great against all those melee enemies like the tusken raiders, bando gora and those pig creatures

[@XeroCool420]

Back in the early 2000's xbox was a console for only the most diehard gamers. In fact I only got my Xbox JUST TO PLAY KOTOR and KOTOR II (and was then pleasantly surprised when things like Ninja Gaiden released on Xbox only at that time because it was the most powerful console at the time) originally. Not alot of ppl had them unless you were pretty wealthy because by then you had a PS2 atleast and possibly even a gamecube. To have all 3 wasnt very common. In fact Xbox didnt even gain their footing until the 360 came out because it was a next gen console and released first.

[@jeggarty]

This was my favourite game as a kid, i really think you shouldve played it with ps2 controls because i remember the camera being terrible but i dont remember the controls being that bad

[@DarkVentus302]

I was about to comment pretty much the same thing, I just use an Xbox One controller on pc these days for older console games

[@afranks4384]

I still hear the rockets when I’m trying to fall asleep at night

[@Jabroskimo]

This gives me old avgn vibes. Much appreciated

[@CornyPuddle]

This was my first (no hand holding game). i beat as a kid back in the day i loved it.

[@Sigfreð]

How do you not have more subs? This is crazy good content

[@makmak511]

Great video, you should definitely do one of thoses videos on jedi knight jedi outcast

[@BlueRazor69]

This game was such a gem and most people slept on it. Not KoToR levels but it’s really good.

[@chrischickering1959]

I really like your video essay style. Reminds me of AVGN

[@OGTC33]

And also I think this game fits In perfectly to the set up of the clone wars

[@salamance2]

As a kid i remember being stuck on the Prison Planet forever.

[@pixelwatcher6320]

Back in the day X was attack and O was jump in most games. Very neat to see how far we've come.

[@sunsetman22]

yeah shit was non-standardized back then, you just lived with it lol

[@slezy108]

This is my favorite ps2 star wars game

[@SPJ2202]

The camera wasn’t always great, nor the button layout. I played on PS2. But it’s STILL one of the greatest games I’ve ever played. I still play it today on PS2 and on PS4. Deserves every bit of a remaster.

[@ВладиславКарандаш]

Just don't stop ❤

[@LogusDogusBogus]

NEED more videos out of you

[@PieBathBob]

i had this on the ps2 and i feel like i remember it controlling better. regardless, it's still confusing and difficult, so i don't think i ever made it past chapter 2 LOL

[@ignorethis214]

18:24 This was why I watched you video, lol. These stupid jumps had me completely wasting all of my lives. I restarted that level so many times because of this one part, that I dropped the game when I finally beat this level, I was just exhausted and frustrated. 12 year old me is almost glad I wasn't the only one who struggled here.

[@Gamingwithahandicap]

If you played them you should do a retrospective on the Tak and the Power of Juju trilogy! Tak and the Power of Juju Tak 2 the Staff of Dreams and the Great Juju Challenge for GameCube not enough people talk about those incredible games! :)

[@breadballer]

I haven’t played those but if they’re as good as you say they are it may still be worth looking into someday.

[@Gamingwithahandicap]

@@breadballer they are to me there some of the best and underrated 3D platformers ever made I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on them! Listen to the Ost Tower Approach from Tak 2 the Staff of Dreams to get you interested it’ll make you want to play them! Keep up the great work man! :)

[@TheFoxEssence]

I adore this game ❤

[@benjaminnapoli1834]

I remember playing this game as a kid a loving it but absolutely struggling the entire time, I dont think I was ever able to beat it.

[@Micamicamico]

I played this game endlessly as a child so the controls are perfectly intuitive to me and I never suffer any difficulty or jankiness. The biggest key is never to use the right stick, people are fooled by their instinct to use it but the game has the smart camera system which was quite cool and new at the time. I understand where people are coming from but it does really bug me when it's always peoples biggest and first criticism

[@canuck_gamer3359]

I always thought that was a really good game. I had heard complaints about the controls but I played it on Playstation and I also was not a regular, full time gamer, so I didn't have the muscle memory that you did with the controls. I was able to get used to them pretty quickly and once I had done that, it was really a question of strategy and using the best weapon for whatever the situation. For example, on the prison level you complain about having so many enemies but the prisoners are unarmed, so the flamethrower is the best option there. You mentioned the cat like creatures from the film, but you show yourself trying to blast them. But one sabre dart will kill them, so again, it's use the best option to make life easier on yourself. Same for the turrets, a rocket is the best way to take them out with one shot. Second, you were jumping straight up and then engaging the jetpack. That won't work if the distance is near the max, so you have to jump in that direction and engage the jetpack after you leave the ground. Anyway, I do count that among the most difficult games that I ever finished, perhaps even thee most difficult. And one last note, did you not realize that the sniper rifle had a zoom on the scope? lol Okay, so I finally watched the entire video and I have to tell you, I cannot believe that you completed this game WITHOUT using the flamethrower. It's either really stupid or incredible and I'm still trying to decide which lol. Seriously, good job man and nice vid, there were some good laughs in there :)

[@CpyExfiltratinPlayer]

Cool video with nice voice

[@HypoGlycemic95]

more of these purdy please

[@revbladez5773]

You should not only use blasters and the occasional rocket all the time. Darts are the best weapon to use against tough organic enemies (especially the Nexu, which die from one shot) and flamethrower is the best weapon to use against swarms of melee enemies, especially the Bando Gora.

[@mazeradeville2911]

I never had an issue with the A for fire and B for jump personally. It's the same layout the Metroid Prime series of games used.

[@goldfish8108]

I both hated and loved this game as a kid Nice vid though Just found your channel
