It makes sense actually that the lightsaber cannot deflect lasers, after all, Luke has just started his Jedi career, can't expect him to learn such a skill instantaneously.
Come on, I beat a Han level no deaths. I had a Det and It went off right at the boss and cut off its guns:) I'm 12. I got to Dagobah with maybe 4 deaths.
I looked up this video because I was thinking of taking a look back at previous star wars games. I think the reviewer was a little harsh on the second title.
I can remember playing both, and noticed the difficulty on both. The thing you have to understand is that gaming was VERY different back then.
Gameplay in games wasnt as worked out. You are frustrated by having to repeat levels to learn them but back then this was part of the fun. Reviewing it back then you would have thought different.
I know what gaming was like back then, I grew up playing this. The 2nd is the weakest and most glitched of the Trilogy that's just the facts. Had the debug feature not have been included many gamers would have been out raged by Super ESB. I recall a couple reviews from Gamepro Magazine & Nintendo Power that both talked about the games broken platforming elements. Though not many talked about the cheat codes that made the game better. Super ROJ is what Empire should have been
@kNIGHTWING01 I too grey up playing this and beat it myself, and i do remember reading seeing things about it being difficult back then. But what I was trying to say is that you are applying todays norms in reviewing games to a game that is way outside this generation. You are now all grown up and you dont like repeating a level 5 times to complete it (learning the angles of things that shoot, dying a lot to leran a boss), but this is how that game was DESIGNED. It was designed to need repeats.
@swtorguidedotcom i think he was spot on, i played this gamea a year ago after not playing it in a longtime, i thught i sucked, but it's actually the game that's insanely impossible to beat!!! i gave up on this game...btw play Dino Crisis 2 with shotgun while eating a gyro dish!!!
I try the cheat in the start screen. I want to start the game from Sand Crawler level. I can't do it. I try more than 50 times and didn't work. :( Anyone can help? I use emulator.
The biggest problem with Super Empire is the slippery platforming physics. You'd expect it when playing on the icy, snowy Hoth levels, but NOT on Dagobah, and NOT on Cloud City!
Btw, some levels will inconsistently give you passwords. Example: Luke's X-Wing approach to Cloud City. You lose all of your lives, maybe you'll get a password for that level. Grrr!!!
well um i beat all 3 games without cheats empire was the hardest but i didnt hate it at all personally i like the character variety of jedi and the design and challenge of empire so overall id say empire is my favorite one just out of curiosity kwing do u have a list of your 10 hardest games since u said empire is on it
@tristanswim The kids names are Jacen and Jaina Solo they go to their Uncle Luke's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 also they later have a little brother named Anakin Solo.
I only ever tried one game in that trilogy, and it happened to be Super Empire, so you can see why I didn't have the ambition to go back and try the rest of them. All I could think of when you showed the ship sequences in many of the games (Particularly Death Star levels) was Rogue Squadron. Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader is probably my favorite Star Wars game, and it has the most memorable Death Star attack levels. Endor was fun too. Great review, man!
Man the Star Wars trilogy on the SNES was and still is EPIC. EXCELLENT GAME PLAY. EXCELLENT REPLAY VALUE. MUSIC WAS EXCELLENT. Did I mention these games are EXCELLENT?
man, i love these games, one of the best game trilogies on the snes! damn awesome! and i really like this... these reviews hehehe very interesting and smart!
Good Review, but you forgot to mention how useful Chewbacca's spin was. He was essentually invisible until in ran out. Also, I didn't have that much trouble on the death star escape. Maybe its because I played it so much as a kid. Other than that, an excellent and informative review.
Well, Luke wasn't really trained in ep. 4 sure he had that little training session with Obi Wan but he couldn't really use the light saber until after his training with Yoda.
kwing your reviews are awesome just like everything else on your channel keep it up and thank you for doing what you do oh and congratulations on 50,000 subscribers
There are actually 14 levels in the 1st game: 1) Dune Sea 2) Land Speeder 1 3) Outside Sand Crawler 4) Inside Sand Crawler 5) Tusken Wastes 6) Land Speeder 2 7) Mos Eisley Space Port 8) Cantina 9) Get to the Falcon 10) Death Star Hanger Bay 11) Prisoner Hallway 12) Deactivate the Shield Generator 13) X-Wing: Death Star Surface 14) X-Wing: Death Star Trench Run As for flight-sim levels in Jedi, I agree that they were a huge pain at 1st, but a little practice went a long way. Just be precise
Great video, Kwing. To this day I still consider this games to be the best Star Wars games ever made. With Super Return of the Jedi being my favorite.
wow, awesome reviews, and 3 in a row, i think i watch all the gameknight tv chapters, but i didnt rebember this one. i only had the first game of the series, and it was full of fun for a long time, until i got really good at it, and the game became extreamly short.
I'm not sure if I agree with you on episode 5. I was able to pass this game at 9 years old without too much frustration. Yes, the game was a bit challenging but never to the point where I felt a cheat was needed to pass a stage. I will say this though, f*** the Dagobah boss.
I grew up playing only Super Star Wars Episode 5 and 6 and I have to AGREE with the Jumping issues on Episode 5 but I never knew their was a Debug menu for these games, I just used In game codes and sometimes Game Genie codes to make things even more fun, heh who thought Cheating could be fun lol. Anywho I had the same problems at the Escape Death Star sequence too I had to use Passwords for that stage ALOT on my first time ITS JUST EVIL!
Hey Kwing. Have you ever played Dark Forces 1 or 2?
I am a huge fan of Star Wars, as well. These games, the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight series, Shadows of the Empire, Battlefront 1 and 2, Republic Commando, KOTOR1 and 2. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
Is Game Knights TV ever coming back? I'm talking about full length episodes like you guys used to do. BTW, did you guys ever do that Sonic Colors episode? I have a hard time remembering.
@kNIGHTWING01 So, GKTV is coming back, but not until 2012? Awesome. I just wanted to know that they're coming back. GKTV was the one thing I always looked forward to when coming on to Youtube.
I heard you say that you ranked the second game as the "tenth hardest game of all time" just an idea for a video, why dont you do a list/mini review of the games that you think are the hardest.
I am very surprised kwing, I've played the first super star wars in the series more than all the others and I find it the most difficult by far, even after learning most of the secrets within each level (hidden health, power-ups, etc). The second one I barely played *in comparison*, but I did finish the game and it was much easier than the first. Just so you know, I never knew about the debug menu, so I beat all the stages in order without skipping any.
i had Super Empire Strikes Back on the NES when i was younger and i never beat it. it WAS way too hard. im only 24 right so i was quite young. i did like it tho, just frusterated me
Did you ever beat the original TMNT? I heard the opening theme and thought about it. I can get into the Tecnodrome, but never got past the skinny hallway filled with laser shooting astronauts.
I know a lot of people brag about stuff on youtube, and it's annoying, but I'm suprised that no one has commented yet. So.... FIRST COMMENTER! and... 6TH VIEWER (Yeah, that part isn't that special)
It makes sense actually that the lightsaber cannot deflect lasers, after all, Luke has just started his Jedi career, can't expect him to learn such a skill instantaneously.
