The Force Unleashed and The Force Unleashed II are video games developed by LucasArts set in the Star Wars Legends universe, bridging the gap between the films Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.Both center around the secret apprentice of Darth Vader, codenamed Starkiller in the place of a real name, who uses his incredible powers of the Force to battle the enemies of the Empire. However, alongside his droid PROXY, pilot Juno Eclipse, and the Jedi Master General Rahm Kota, Starkiller begins to break off from Vader and fight for his own sake.They're both something like a Tech-Demo Game, being among the first games to use Digital Molecular Matter (a physics engine that makes environmental destruction, such as bending metal and tearing plant matter, much more detailed than anything seen before) and Euphoria AI coding (which determines enemy behavior in a much more realistic fashion — stormtroopers grabbing hold of each other or the environment when lifted by the Force, for example.)Downloadable Content packs each entitled the Ultimate Sith Edition add What If? stories to both games based on their Dark Side endings and allow the player to battle through the settings of first three Star Wars films as Starkiller and fight characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker, and Princess Leia.The games were also the center of a multimedia project à la Shadows of the Empire, covering a wide range of media including Comic Books, a novel (by Sean Williams), action figures and a Role-Playing Game, basically all the side-material that would be released surrounding a movie without actually making the movie; the difference here is that this time, the video game was the centerpiece.That Other Wiki has more information. Wookieepedia might help too.A Nintendo Switch port, based on the Wii version of the first game, released on April 20, 2022. | |

| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_1228314a | comment |
Strong as They Need to Be: Despite how powerful Galen is, Vader and Palpatine can still get the drop on him and the Rebels during the ending to the first game. The second game has Vader and Starkiller take a lot of punishment during their final battle. All it takes for the latter's death is a sneaky backstab by his evil clone. | |

Gatling Good: The Militia Elites in the first level and the Rodian Heavy Defenders in the second and eighth levels both utilize gatling lasers in their attempts to stop Starkiller's assault. Since Starkiller can simply stand still and deflect each of their shots, the odds are not in their favor. | |

Darker and Edgier: The creators claim this for the story of the sequel with it being more personal for Starkiller. Turned out to be ironic since the sequel has a far happier ending than the first game. Though that's not to say that it didn't have some pretty dark moments. | |

Where It All Began: The sequel opens with Starkiller jumping off the highest tower of Kamino to escape death at the hands of Darth Vader. The game's last level sees Starkiller fight through the Empire's forces so he can get to the highest tower of Kamino and confront Vader. | |

Evil Versus Evil: After defecting to the Rebellion, Starkiller returns to two planets he helped conquer for the Empire, Raxus Prime and Felucia, to find Imperial Forces wiping out the native defenses with their superior firepower. This isn't a cutscene only thing, the first thing the player will see in the second Felucia level is a group of stormtroopers running to their turrets and laying waste to a horde of Felucian Warriors who are rushing them. The players can jump into the middle and take on both armies at once, or just wait for the Stormtroopers to wipe out the Felucians so you only have one group of enemies to fight. | |

Anti-Magic: The first game features Stormtroopers who use environmental shields to block Starkiller's various Force attacks. It doesn't help them with giant boulders thrown telepathically. The sequel features "Force Acolytes" who use weaker versions of force lightning and push and can only be killed with lightsaber strikes. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Like most other Star Wars games, the first game has Light and Dark Side endings. As with all Star Wars games, the Light Side ending detailed above in Heroic Sacrifice was canon; the Dark Side ending has Galen forced to become Palpatine's new cyborg apprentice, much like what happened to Vader... except Palpatine specifically tells him that he will soon cast him aside. Quite a Downer Ending if there ever was one. The Ultimate Sith DLC adds an alternate story based on the Dark Side ending, with Starkiller becoming Palpatine's apprentice and proceeding to kill off the heroes of the series. And the sequel as well. In the Light Side, you spare Vader's life and take him prisoner, but as the rebels jump to Hyperspace, Boba Fett's Slave 1 takes off behind you setting up a Sequel Hook. In the Dark Side, you are about to finish Vader when you're impaled by a lightsaber. It turns out you weren't the first stable clone, and this one is loyal to Vader. He then takes off to hunt down the remaining Rebels. The downloadable Endor mission follows. Oh, and in the Light Side, Juno lives and in the Dark Side she dies. | |

| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_1b06aa41 | comment |
Villains Never Lie: In the sequel, Kota calls Starkiller out for thinking this — believing Vader when he told him he was a clone. Though there is a lot of evidence supporting the idea, Vader has lied a lot in the past. And damn near everything he said to Starkiller in particular was a lie in the first game. | |

The Cameo: Jar Jar Binks of The Phantom Menace shows up frozen in carbonite in the Kashyyyk level.

There are loads of film and video game characters available as costumes, from Kit Fisto to Darth Sion to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Mara Jade is included in the PS2/Wii version. Yoda and Boba Fett make brief appearances in the second game, with Wedge Antilles making a cameo in the novelization. Guybrush Threepwood is playable in II as an outfit for Starkiller. | |

Villain Ball: At the end of the second game, Vader has Juno, and his threats to her life have cowed Starkiller into obedience. While Vader is focused on him, Juno escapes, grabs a saber, and makes a clumsy attack that he easily dodges. Rather than disarming and restraining his valuable hostage, he blasts her off the platform. Cue Starkiller's Unstoppable Rage. | |

Good Costume Switch | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_1f42c032 | comment |
Good Costume Switch: The novel mentions that Starkiller starts wearing robes more like those of the Jedi in order to be more presentable to the Rebel leaders, who all remember the Jedi as the good guys of times past. His outfits are a bit more ambiguous in the game, where his last outfit is a gray and black robe. The "Ceremonial Jedi Robes" unlocked after getting the (canonical) 'good' ending. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In early drafts of the script for A New Hope, Luke's last name was supposed to be "Starkiller." In reference to that, The Force Unleashed gave its protagonist the codename "Starkiller." Leia becomes a Jedi in the non-canon Endor DLC of the second game following Luke's death at Hoth, a plot taken from the What If? Star Wars Infinities — The Empire Strikes Back. | |

Bag of Spilling | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_28104b90 | comment |
Bag of Spilling: Mostly inverted. The second game starts the player off with many abilities not unlocked until late in the first game, but others like the Saber Throw and Force Repulse can only be used once Starkiller has a flashback showing himself using that ability. This happens because Darth Vader tried to make Starkiller repress his memories of the last game, which works best in the case of the Lightning Shield ability, which fails to return in the sequel. | |

Easter Egg | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Numerous. Two occur on the Raxus Prime levels in the first game. First time there, one thing you can pull out of the yellow toxic sludge is Luke's starfighter, a la Dagobah style. The second time you're there, you can spot a piece of junk in the wall — specifically, the front half of the Millenium Falcon. | |

Beam-O-War | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_2a51fd2d | comment |
Beam-O-War: When the player character and a boss fire Force Push or bolt of lightning at each other at the same time, the two will fire two beams at each other (blue for the player, purple for the boss). The player can overpower the enemy beam by either mashing the attack button or moving the control stick back and forth or do nothing and get blown back. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The metal claws on the Sith Stalker armor. How, exactly, does one do stunts with a lightsaber with 6-inch spikes coming out of your fingers? Both Galen's and his clones' saber stances. Yeah, holding a lightsaber backhanded, with the blades mere millimeters from contact with the back of your arms/elbows, looks cool; but you have to use extra movement and time to bring them to the front to defend yourself or attack, and the slightest wrong move means that you'd cut off your own arm. Doubly so with the clones, who do this have a saber in each hand. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: In the Wii, PS2 and PSP versions of the first game, when you get to one of the three levels where you must pass a Jedi trial at the Jedi Temple in Coruscant, do not backtrack outside to the temple entrance once you go inside until you have defeated all the enemies at the temple atrium. If you do, the game will crash once you defeat all the enemies in the atrium, because the ensuing cutscene draws upon resources in the next area that are erased from memory if you backtracked to the main entrance. | |

Kick the Dog: The player has an ability set aside for smaller, more vulnerable enemies (i.e. Ewoks, Jawas) known as "Sith Punt" where Starkiller grabs the enemy and kicks them across the room with the full might of the Force. The Dark Side ending for the original has Palpatine verbally kicking Starkiller around as he is being rebuilt into his Stalker armor, assuring him that like Vader, he will only be used until a new apprentice is taken, after which he will be cast aside. | |

Broken Aesop | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_401d4116 | comment |
Broken Aesop: The game offers the player bonuses for using the Force to creatively crush enemies and kill them in frenzies; despite this, every single game ending supports the message that killing your enemies in battle is morally reprehensible. In the first game's Light Side ending, Starkiller is persuaded to spare Emperor Palpatine so as not to fall to the Dark side. Because righteous fury toward the Evil Overlord that had your father killed automatically means that you're just as evil. In the first game's Dark Side ending. A revenge-driven moment of weakness — even if: (A) it's against an Asshole Victim, and (B) you still try to help the good guys afterward — is automatically a Moral Event Horizon-crossing deserving of a Fate Worse than Death. Right. The sequel's Dark Side ending is perhaps the most glaring of all, Starkiller just gets immediately killed via back stab before he can even accomplish anything remotely consequence-worthy. | |

Flunky Boss: Shaak Ti, the game's third boss, can whistle to call upon three alien warriors to help her fight the player. She's immune to attack while making the call, but since Starkiller regains health by killing enemies, the player may not always want to. Ozzik Sturn only fights the player once he has a fully armored AT-KT tank walker and a troop of elite Stormtrooper to back him up. The Emperor will occasionally surround himself with a shield of lightning so that his Imperial bodyguards can come in groups of two or three to attack the player before the boss fight resumes. For part of the final boss fight, Vader summons Stormtroopers to attack the player while Vader throws platforms from a distance. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Proxy is this by design, programmed with an urge to murder Starkiller in ritual combat. The droid brings this up several times throughout the campaign and even interrupts Starkiller's assault on Raxus Prime for an impromptu training session. The novelization of the first game has the Core on Raxus Prime, whose primary task is to recycle the trash covering the planet. However, after Starkiller's interference results in the Empire coming to the planet, the Core is convinced that the Empire is ruled inefficiently and resolves to take it over. For some reason, though, it feels that it needs the Rogue Shadow to get off the planet, even though the planet is littered with ship parts. It should be easy enough for the Core to assemble a whole fleet from that. When trying to slice into the Core, PROXY falls under the Core's influence and is convinced to open himself up to it. The Core takes control of him and tries to kill Starkiller. Starkiller manages to defeat the Core and then uses Force Lightning to fry it in order to wipe any trace of the data it could have downloaded from PROXY. Notably, the Core's meddling has also wiped PROXY's primary programming, so he no longer fells compelled to try to kill Starkiller. | |

The Unfought: Boba Fett appears in the second game to hunt down Starkiller, but the two never fight in gameplay.

Evil Makes You Ugly | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_4ee487f2 | comment |
Evil Makes You Ugly: Vader and Palpatine are classic examples. Starkiller in the Sith ending as well as his evil clone in the second game also count, although the latter one is just very pale. This is exaggerated with the Felucians on the second visit to their planet, as they are corrupted by the Dark Side without Shaak Ti's guidance and go from brightly-colored, exotic aliens with plant-like masks to looking like rotting ghouls. | |

What Measure Is a Mook? | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_52b36340 | comment |
What Measure Is a Mook?: Deluges of this trope. The novelization has Juno angrily tell Starkiller that one of the people he just casually massacred was an old friend of hers, but when he apologizes she says it's okay, since she hadn't talked to him in years anyway. Late in the novel Galen — by that point the narration had picked up on his name — is horrified about how Vader's plan involved letting thousands of loyal Imperials get slaughtered, nevermind that he'd done about half of that all by himself, delighting in how easy it was. | |

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_5663a595 | comment |
Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: In the PS2/Wii/PSP version, Galen finds Kota in Nar Shaddaa instead of Cloud City like in the PS3/360/PC version. However, some of the dialogue is still retained as if he found him in Cloud City in the former version. First, while the part about him searching Nar Shaddaa and Ziost is removed, he still says "I tracked you across the galaxy" even though Nar Shaddaa was the first place he checked according to his previous conversation with Juno. Kota also still says Bail Organa "smuggled [him] to Cloud City" in the PS2/Wii/PSP version and doesn't explain why or how he found his way back to Nar Shaddaa. | |

Contractual Boss Immunity | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_5bb56482 | comment |
Contractual Boss Immunity: With a few early exceptions, most bosses cannot be lifted and thrown with Force Grip, preventing the player from juggling them around while stopping any offensive measure on their part. The Jedi Mind Trick, which can variably make enemies commit suicide, force them to help the player, or literally blow their minds, fails to work on any of the three bosses in The Force Unleashed II. There are also some large enemies immune to it, but they lose their immunity if the player activates Force Fury mode, where all of Starkiller's powers are increased for a short time. | |

Death World: Felucia. Not only is it infested with rancors, some of which the hostile natives ride on top of, and has the largest Sarlacc specimen in the galaxy, even the plants are out for your blood. Those that don't try to kill you directly by spitting venom at you at least explode violently if you so much as brush lightly against them. After Felucia comes under Imperial occupation, the planet itself falls to the dark side. The luscious plants begin to die, the natives become vicious killers and large, tooth-like protrusions erupt from the ground. | |

Like most other Star Wars games, the first game has Light and Dark Side endings. As with all Star Wars games, the Light Side ending detailed above in Heroic Sacrifice was canon; the Dark Side ending has Galen forced to become Palpatine's new cyborg apprentice, much like what happened to Vader... except Palpatine specifically tells him that he will soon cast him aside. Quite a Downer Ending if there ever was one. | |

Shooting Superman | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_781f2467 | comment |
Shooting Superman: Before enemies diversify their tactics later in the game, it's perfectly possible to win fights by standing still and deflecting enemies lasers back at them with Starkiller's lightsaber. The various Mooks you face will continue to fire, God bless their soul, even after all their allies have been downed by deflected laser beams. | |

Left Hanging: Canonically, the second game ends you spare Vader's life and take him prisoner, but as the rebels jump to Hyperspace, Boba Fett's Slave 1 takes off behind you. Unfortunately, the poor sales of the sequel, combined with LucasArts closing three years later (after Disney bought Lucasfilm, the parent company), suggests that it's not going to be resolved anytime soon (unless of course Electronic Arts does something about it). | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Inverted. In the Dark Side ending from the sequel, Starkiller goes to kill Vader... only to be stabbed by an invisible clone that Vader had rid of the original's personality, with several unlockable videos explaining the Dark Apprentice's origin and where he came from. At no point is he even hinted at during the Light Side ending, making the supplementary videos entirely pointless if that's the Canon ending, since we get the origin for a character who canonically may not even exist within the game that introduced him. After Starkiller lets her go, Marris Brood walks off into the Felucian wilderness and is never seen again for the rest of the game, not even getting a mention in the sequel. | |

Bait-and-Switch: At the start of Imperial Kashyyyk level, Ozzil Sturn and a whole platoon of stormtroopers stand at attention as an Imperial shuttle lands, which unloads more stormtroopers as well as some Royal Guards. All the while, the Imperial March plays at full blast. Obviously, this must mean Darth Vader or perhaps the Emperor is paying Sturn a visit, right? Wrong. It's actually Princess Leia and Artoo, who are Sturn's "guests" (hostages) on the planet. | |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_8b606a51 | comment |
There Is No Kill Like Overkill: A fun overkill at lower levels is to pick up an enemy, throw your saber into them, shoot them with lightning, and then force push them (preferably into something explosive). And then you get the stronger force powers. This actually grants the Poor Bob achievement in the second game; and the overkill of this combo can be increased even more by force pushing them into quickly moving fans or other deadly hazards - like space station windows or heat hazards. A player could also keep holding onto said enemy and continue to impale/shock them (long after the mook has expired) until the player runs out of force charge, in which case they can keep ragdolling the corpse or just toss it into a hazard. The final level of the original shows perhaps the ultimate overkill. You can hold enemies in the firing path of the Death Star. The end to the Battle of Endor DLC in the sequel has the Apprentice meditating on top of the Endor bunker. He looks up to see a group of Star Destroyers floating above him, and it's pretty much directly stated that they're going to bombard him from orbit in an effort to kill him. | |

Free-Fall Fight | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_8e9e0284 | comment |
Free-Fall Fight: A gameplay mechanic in the non-Nintendo versions of the sequel involve Starkiller diving through the air while using the Force to blow away any obstacles in his way. The mechanic comes into play three times: After the tutorial, Starkiller jumps out the window of a tower and uses lightning and the Force to destroy other towers, spaceships, and platforms that block his path as he dives to the ground. The sequence ends with Starkiller crashing through a glass dome, hitting the ground with a massive shockwave, and sending all the nearby Stormtroopers flying. A giant monster named the Gorog chases Starkiller and his friend up a giant tower, only to pull the tower into a pit with it's massive weight. Starkiller is more than willing to let the beast die, but since it managed to grab his friend, he's forced to leap after the beast and use to Force to kill it and grab his friend before jumping into a friendly spaceship. As The Salvation crashes through Kamino's orbit, Starkiller jumps out of the ship and starts diving beside it, giving the player a view as the ship crashes into one of the Empire's cloning facilities. | |

In the first game's Dark Side ending. A revenge-driven moment of weakness — even if: (A) it's against an Asshole Victim, and (B) you still try to help the good guys afterward — is automatically a Moral Event Horizon-crossing deserving of a Fate Worse than Death. Right. | |

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_902fa0b4 | comment |
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: In the Dark Side Ending of the sequel, an evil, invisible clone of our hero appears out of nowhere and kills Starkiller in one shot! He does not make an appearance in the Light Side Ending, but could still be hidden and awaiting his next orders from Vader. There are unlockable videos showing the progression of the Dark Apprentice's training under Vader, which you can get after completing the challenge levels. The final one shows that Vader instructed him not to interfere with his fight with the other clone unless he was needed, like if Vader's life was in danger. The only other possible foreshadowing of the Dark Apprentice is that, in the Betrayal trailer, after Starkiller fights his way through the Imperials on Kamino, it shows Vader in a lab filled with Starkiller clones in cloning tubes. As he leaves, one of the clones suddenly opens his eyes. This clone could be one of the countless other clones Vader created, or it could be the Dark Apprentice. Regardless, unless you read the book first, you were probably caught off guard by the sudden appearance of this other clone in the sequel's Dark Side ending. | |

You Keep Using That Word: The word "destiny" seemed to be used by Darth Vader a whole hell of a lot but it was never consistent at all.

Leeroy Jenkins: Kota tends to rush into combat a lot, and it rarely ends well for him. When the Rebels are confronted by Vader and the Empire on Corellia after the first official meeting of the Rebel Alliance, Kota ignites his lightsaber and charges at Vader, but the Sith Lord chokes him into unconsciousness with the Force and throws him aside, resulting in his and the Senators' capture. Then, when Palpatine is trying to convince Starkiller to kill Vader and join his side after their duel on the Death Star, Kota charges at the Emperor, using the Force the grab the Emperor's lightsaber out of his robes' sleeve and attacks him with it, only for Palpatine to use Force Lightning on him, which is too strong for the Jedi Master to break out of. Luckily, in the true ending, this causes Starkiller to forget about going after Vader and instead focus on saving Kota and the others from the Emperor. Finally, in the sequel's Dark Side Ending, after the Dark Apprentice stabs Starkiller in the back, Kota ignites his lightsaber and rushes in to attack, with his men being slaughtered by Terror Troopers. The Dark Apprentice easily blocks all of Kota's attacks, slashes him across the chest, picks him up with a Force Choke, tosses him into the remaining Rebel soldiers, and Force Pushes them all off the platform and into the sea. Unlike the other two examples, this one actually results in his death. | |

Faux Affably Evil | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_95b7c400 | comment |
Faux Affably Evil: Proxy, due to his programming, becomes a hybrid of C-3P0 and HK-47. Though given that he sacrifices himself for Starkiller in the end and there were signs of genuine fondness for Galen (later Juno) mentioned in the novel, PROXY wasn't Faux Affably Evil through and through. The only reason he does qualify is that he really does try to kill Starkiller every time they duel (though it's justified as it's meant to keep Starkiller's combat skills sharp). | |

Loads and Loads of Loading: The first game. The PS2 version is notoriously bad about it — the gameplay itself runs smoothly enough, but going through the menus during the rest period between stages quickly becomes a hassle. Scrolling through the various custom outfits can take between 10-20 seconds per shift, with close to a dozen possible outfits to choose from and no way to skip to the one you want. | |

Big Bad: The Emperor for the first game with Vader acting as The Heavy. It was his plan to use Starkiller to root out his political enemies and destroy them once and for all. Canonically, he's the game's Final Boss. Darth Vader for the second game, acting completely independent of the Emperor to clone Starkiller for his own purposes and hunting him down when he flees. Unlike the previous installment, Vader is the only Final Boss option this time. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |

"Not So Different" Remark: Starkiller actually states this to Vader during their final fight in the novelization, regarding being used and enslaved by the Emperor, and likewise expressed pity on Vader for not breaking free. In the sequel's novel, Starkiller realises that Kota, like Vader, wants to use him as a weapon. The difference, however, is that Kota actually cares about Starkiller beyond that. | |

Gambit Roulette | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_987be393 | comment |
Gambit Roulette: Going by the graphic novel, Galen's entire path to the Dark Side (being kidnapped as a child and taken to be raised/tortured for life by Vader, pretty much everything except maybe actually siding with the rebels) was one by the Emperor in order to take someone more powerful than Vader and shape him to be Vader's replacement. | |

| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_99be89b5 | comment |
Send in the Clones: The sequel involves an attempt by Vader to clone the original Starkiller without free will, which ultimately backfires when he creates an even more rebellious clone who busts out and helps out the original's old friends. | |

Industrial World | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_9a004414 | comment |
Industrial World: Raxus Prime has spent thousands of years as a glorified factory for a succession of governments and MegaCorps, which created immense manufacturing plants on its surface to produce goods varying from high-tech weaponry to starships to chemical products. This took an immense toll on Raxus Prime's ecosystem, filling its air and water with pollutants and covering its land with slag and industrial waste. Eventually, aside from immense factory complexes and sealed habitat areas, the planet's surface became a polluted hell of debris fields, played-out strip mines, and lakes of toxic chemicals good for nothing but dumping further waste in. | |

Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_9a117348 | comment |
Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels: The first game's difficulty modes (on PS3 and Xbox 360) are based on titles held by the Sith; "Apprentice" is the easy difficulty, "Sith Warrior" is the medium difficulty, "Sith Lord" is the hard difficulty, and "Sith Master" is the Harder Than Hard mode. The second game's difficulty's modes are all named conventionally except for the Harder Than Hard mode, which is titled "Unleashed" mode. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In the prologue, Kento Marek is shown pulling down Tie Fighters. In one of the defining moments of the game, his son (Starkiller) puts all his energy into crashing an Imperial Star Destroyer and actually manages to succeed. Starkiller jumps off his ship on his first mission to Raxus Prime and lands on a crashed Star Destroyer. At the end of his second trip to Raxus Prime, Starkiller crashes his own Star Destroyer single-handedly. There's also Kota's warning to Starkiller that fighting the Empire is pointless and doing so get's people killed or worse. He's exactly right, the two endings are a Heroic Sacrifice and a Fate Worse than Death. Shaak Ti's warning that the Sith always betray one another. It's already shown that Vader is training his apprentice to stage a coup. Then, Vader betrays his apprentice. Twice. | |

Continuity Nod: One of the toughest non-boss enemies, the "Imperial Purge Troopers", are prototype Dark Troopers (Giant Mook killer robots) from the Dark Forces Saga. The PS2 and Wii versions of the game likewise make use of the Imperial heavy repeater introduced in Jedi Knight II. Winning the boss battle with Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Tatooine DLC awards the achievement "No more lies old man", a reference to Obi-Wan's "If you strike me down I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine" line to Vader in A New Hope. At the end of II, the Rebels take Vader to Dantooine. Is it any wonder he knows about it and that they've evacuated it by A New Hope? | |

Blind Seer: Rahm Kota was a wise Jedi with a strong connection with a Force before he was blinded, but after Starkiller defeats him, he is so devastated by his loss of sight that he can do little but offer wisdom and guidance to future Jedi. He eventually decides to get back into action, still capable of lightsaber combat by the end of the first game. | |

Doomed by Canon: Anyone who appears in the original trilogy has to survive, and, well, one would think an insanely powerful rogue Jedi/Sith would have been mentioned if he was still in the picture, wouldn't you? This dooms Starkiller not to survive into the original trilogy, although the sequel leaves it ambiguous what exactly his final fate is. | |

Eye Scream: A lot in the first game — for starters, General Kota, with his own lighsaber. Ouch. The final cinematic in the Dark Side ending has some of this in 1st person view. The Stalker model also has a small droplet of blood leaking from the visor, hinting at some nastiness underneath, which is in some ways even more disturbing than the previous instance. The finishing move for some Rancors invokes this as well | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: In December 2013, Pablo Hidalgo made a statement via Twitter that declared the game's depiction of the forming of the Rebel Alliance non-canon. This is apparently part of Disney's new canon policy that's currently being worked-on by a team that includes Hidalgo, Leland Chee, and Dave Filoni, amongst others. This was finalized in 2014, when it was declared that all EU works before 2014 (that aren't Star Wars: The Clone Wars) are declared non-canon unless referenced by a new source. | |

Meteor Move | |

Meteor Move: The most satisfying of Galen's (many) moves in The Force Unleashed is a variation of Type B in which he hits his opponent multiple times into the air with his lightsaber, grabs him by the throat and then crashes into the ground below, usually sending a resounding shockwave that ripples outward, sending the usually-present crowd of hapless Stormtrooper screaming into the air, setting up for yet-another combo. | |

Superpowered Mooks: The Shadow Guard enemies have lightsaber-lances and can perform several of the same Force powers as you. The robotic Purge Troopers qualify, thanks to their inhuman power and durability. They're immune to some of your Force powers, at higher difficulty levels, they can take a third of your lifebar with a single attack and their moves cannot be interrupted except by Force Lightning (their only weakness amongst direct Force attacks) or throwing objects at them. The Sith Acolytes and Saber Guards can shrug off any Force attack Starkiller can throw while firing back with their own weaker versions of Force Lightning and Force Repulse. | |

And I Must Scream: Starkiller, in the first game's Dark Side Ending, is transformed into the mangled, robotic Sith Stalker apprentice of Palpatine, barely alive and, as Palpatine makes clear, only living on borrowed time until Palpatine finds a new apprentice; after that, he's done. Makes the second game's Dark Side Ending (where Starkiller's evil clone just shanks him in the back) look fluffy and happy in comparison. | |

Red Shirt | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_ac2094ca | comment |
Red Shirt: The few AI that help you out include "Kashyyyk" Stormtroopers while playing as Vader, Wookiees when Starkiller returns to his own planet, 501st Snowtroopers in the Hoth DLC level and a few scattered Rebel squads in the second game. The PS2/Wii/PSP versions of the first game changed some of these and added more, the Kashyyyk Troopers were replaced by 501st Stormtroopers (these guys have more noticeable blue accent s), Bail Organa's bodyguards briefly appear on Felucia and Cloud City Wing Guards assist you in the exclusive Bespin level. In spite of all that, these friendly faces aren't of much help in actual combat. Kota's Militia and the Rebel Troopers in the Hoth DLC level technically count as this although they actually fight the player. Ironically enough, these "bad guys" are also more stronger enemies due to their increased health and damage in comparison to regular Imperial units. In fact, if you hang back and let the two groups fight each other you can watch as they often effortlessly mow down the Stormtroopers. It should be noted that while the friendly AI obviously aren't the best helpers, the main reason they can't help you or themselves too well in a fight is because they're often put up against impossible odds. Stormtroopers in the first game can be instantly killed by a regular Militia Saboteur's blaster (while the Stormtroopers' blasters do next to no damage against any Militia infantry and can only win against them if the player deliberately weakens them to a point where the Imperials can finish them off with a good streak of lucky shots which is rare to see as it is). Even if you increase the difficulty level to Sith Master (where regular Stormtroopers can survive a lightsaber slash) they still die instantly to regular blaster fire. This doesn't even account for when they're put up against Militia Elites or Militia Swordsmen (although bizarrely they can survive a burst from the former's Rotary guns). Meanwhile the few areas that have friendly Rebels in the second game have a large amount of enemies for you to fight including; the Salvation's hanger where roughly 30 Stormtroopers, 2 Saber Guards, 3 Scout Troopers, 3 AT-MP plus 2 AT-ST (5 Rebels are with you in this part) attack in full waves. Needless to say they are basically impossible to keep alive. 4 regular Rebels plus a Commando fighting on two fronts against 2 AT-MP plus about 12 Stormtroopers on 1 side and 3 Scout Troopers plus 4 Jump Troopers behind them. Unlike the last group they can be kept alive through a combination of luck, Force Rage and some quick attacking but this requires that the player actively attempts this. These two parts of the game alongside the countless other moments where Rebel troopers are killed off in scripted segments for shock value makes one wonder why the developers implemented them as AI in the first place when they're not going to make much of a difference. This was changed averted in the Hoth DLC level. The 501st Snowtroopers don't die from just one shot from regular blaster fire and can be a decent help in the final area, two troopers will actually follow the player around here while the rest will keep rebel reinforcements away from the right side of the hanger. This can be useful on higher difficulties since the player can retreat back to the Imperial controlled area if their health bar is heavily depleted while their two respawning allies keep the rebels busy. Likewise in the PS2/Wii/PSP versions of the first game, Bail Organa's bodyguards will often hold their own in their brief appearance if they player doesn't intervene, and they can be taken a little bit further into the level with the player's force grip ability. However they are forced to despawn when the player enters the Imperial base. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Darth Vader sends Starkiller to create a rebellion by gathering potential leaders to start it, to distract Palpatine for Vader to start a coup. Ultimately, doing so starts Starkiller's path to redemption. Even after Vader kidnaps them and tells him this all just a ploy to capture all of them in one swoop, Starkiller, who is now on the Light Side of the Force, rescues the Rebel leaders, performing a selfless Heroic Sacrifice to stall Palpatine, and the Rebel leaders escape and formally found the Rebel Alliance. Even after he and Palpatine now know who the Rebel leaders are, Vader's plan to exterminate them after capturing them ends up backfiring, thanks to Starkiller. | |

Loners Are Freaks: Kazdan Paratus. Being isolated on a junkyard planet led him to constructing a replica of the Jedi Temple out of scrap, complete with robotic versions of the last Jedi Council. He speaks to said replica Jedi as if they were alive and freaks out when Starkiller/Galen trashes them. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Darth Vader may have raised Starkiller, but he has no love for the boy and is willing to kill him as soon as Starkiller becomes a liability. Juno's dad was also a piece of work. | |

RedOni | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_b2207a3e | comment |
Red Oni, Blue Oni: Starkiller and Vader. Starkiller lets his emotions drive his actions, and is very aggressive in combat. Vader, while pretty aggressive himself, is cold, detached, and calculating, especially in the second game. This is kind of ironic, as Starkiller eventually starts using a blue lightsaber while Vader wields his red one, but given which side each is on, it's understandable. This also applies to Starkiller's two stable clones in the sequel. The one you play as, who is also called 'Starkiller', is even more impulsive than the original, and is driven entirely by his feelings for Juno Eclipse. The Dark Apprentice, on the other hand, is quiet and shows very little emotion, at least when not in battle. | |

Adaptational Explanation | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_b7fa9b36 | comment |
Adaptational Explanation: TFU novel by Sean Williams not just expanded what we saw and played in the game, also gives The Protagonist (The Apprentice, codenamed Starkiller) a proper name and a background: Galen Marek, son of the late Jedi Knight Kento Marek (unnamed in the games and killed in the first cutscene). His mother is briefly mentioned, but in the novel as well in TFU II got a name and a background too (Mallie Marek, also a Jedi Knight who died when Galen was just a baby). | |

Corridor Cubbyhole Run: Inside the Sarlaac, Starkiller and a legion of enemies end up pinned against a wall by gusts of wind as the Sarlacc breathes. Starkiller's smart enough to dodge behind conveniently placed obstructions, but the enemies aren't so clever. In the final level of the first game, Starkiller runs through the Death Star's cannons while dodging Stormtroopers and fighting turrets. This happens all while the Death Star is testing its planet-destroying laser, which will instantly kill any enemy and the player. | |

Ink-Suit Actor | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_b8dbbc07 | comment |
Ink-Suit Actor: Starkiller, Juno Eclipse, Rahm Kota, and Maris Brood all look very much like their voice actors, as LucasArts used facial recognition technology to incorporate the likeness of the actors into the game. Bail Organa was also voiced by Jimmy Smitts, but he was in the live action movies anyway. It's somewhat shocking to see Sam Witwer on Smallville and not go "Hey, that's Starkiller!" It's even stranger for some who saw him on Battlestar Galactica first; Sam isn't a particularly large man, but he filled out his Colonial uniform well enough for Crashdown to look like a tank,◊ and Starkiller is significantly more scrawny-looking in comparison. Oddly, the concept art of Starkiller did look just like Sam Witwer before he was cast in the part. | |

Storming the Castle: The final level of the first game sees Starkiller invade the Emperor's most dangerous space station in an attempt to finish him off. This gives cause for Starkiller to face the full force of the Imperial army. The second game's last level is the tower of Kamino, Vader's personal headquarters where he tried to kill Starkiller at the start of the game. | |

Shout-Out | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Like many other Star Wars characters (Coleman Trebor, Dannl Faytoni), Kazdan Paratus' name is a shout-out to a crew member—namely, Lawrence Kasdan, who wrote Empire and Jedi (and Raiders of the Lost Ark). May not be intentional, but the Kato Neimoidia level introduces a lucrative and lavish casino, and enemies that fire missles, which you can grab and redirect back at them. Very similar to a 2008 sci-fi game called Path of the Furon. In the sequel, there is an achievement/trophy called "Poor Bob". One must lift a Stormtrooper in the air, impale him with your lightsaber, strike him with lightning, and fling him into an object. Which is what happened to a poor Stormtrooper (called Bob) in this Penny Arcade comic. The achievements for beating Boba Fett in the first game's Tatooine DLC is called "And The Quarterback is Toast" — a rare case of a Shout Out to a Shout Out, as the original quote comes from Die Hard. One of the Rebels in the Wii version shouts that the terror droids are "coming out of the walls!", in a very similar fashion to what some of the characters say about the Xenomorphs from Alien. The Achievement for killing a certain number of stormtroopers in the prologue level? Worst Day-Shift Manager Ever. Possibly an Actor Allusion, given the fact that Vader is voiced by Matt Sloan. During the final battle with Palpatine, Palpatine will say to Starkiller "You will scream just like your father" in such a way that almost echoes what Andross told Fox McCloud in the Easy route of Venom in Star Fox 64. In the first game, in the Empirical, Starkiller is refered to as "Subject 1138". Similarly, in the sequel, the password Kota gives The Salvation is "Talus Haroon Ten Eleven Thirty-Eight". The latter literally comes out to "THX 1138", X being the Roman numeral for "ten". The first level on the Salvation in the second game has horror elements that are reminiscent of Dead Space. The parallel is furthered with one of the datalogs for that level's enemies, which detail a series of gruesome murders on a ghost ship found floating through space. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_c93a6560 | comment |
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Many attacks involving the lightsaber involve stabbing enemies through the back. "Impale" is also an ability, where Starkiller lifts an enemy in the air and throws his saber into their chest as they wrestle helplessly through the air. In cutscenes, Starkiller himself is impaled by Vader's lightsaber after the first three levels. Other notable examples in the first game include: Starkiller stabbing the vision of the Sith Stalker in the back at the end of their duel in the Jedi Temple, from the Ultimate Sith Edition; DLC Starkiller stabbing Ben Kenobi through the chest as they fight in the Mos Eisley Docking Bay, also in the Ultimate Sith Edition. In the second game's Dark Side ending, Starkiller's good clone is stabbed in the back by the Dark Apprentice. The Dark Apprentice kills both Han Solo and Leia Organa by stabbing both of them through the chest during the sequel's DLC Endor level. | |

Jedi Mind Trick | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_cabd513c | comment |
Jedi Mind Trick: One of Starkiller's powers in the sequel is to use the Force to force enemies to fight alongside him. Exaggerated as it can turn stormtroopers into bombs when fully upgraded. | |

Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_cdc4a218 | comment |
Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act: In the Dark Side DLC storyline, it is revealed that even if the Rebel Alliance's founding leaders died, the Alliance would be formed anyway, presumably by Princess Leia. Given that the other members were all known and had to go underground or were under careful watch by the empire this is probably not that far from what happened in the lightside ending either. | |

Escort Mission | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_cfda0ecb | comment |
Escort Mission: Starkiller heads to Bespin and finds the destitute Kota Ram as Stormtroppers break in to kill the Jedi, forcing Starkiller to fight the Imperial Forces until he can get Kota to a ship. The escort part of the job is actually pretty trivial, because Kota can defend himself with his lightsaber and his health is practically unlimited. He's not invincible, but his health is so huge that basically the only way for him to die is to intentionally kill him. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: Combat arenas with lots of tough enemies will often feature Sith Holocrons providing infinite energy or enhanced damage to deal with them. So what happens when I pick up a TIE fighter, move it above an enemy, and then force push it straight down? The game awards me a "Crush Bonus". You can get a bonus by freezing a number of storm troopers in carbonite, either throwing them into tanks, throwing the tanks at them or ripping off a pipeline and spraying them with it. In the sequel, there's even an achievement for it. | |

Hunting the Most Dangerous Game: As part of his apprenticeship under Darth Vader, the player character starts the game by hunting three fugitive Jedi that survived the Empire's genocide. Ozzik Sturn, the general on Kashyyyk, also mentions that he'd like to hunt Jedi before attacking Galen in a custom AT-ST. Galen responds by ripping one of the guns off the AT-ST and clubbing the walker with it. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Darth Vader sends Starkiller to collect the enemies of the Empire so he can rally them against the Emperor. Naturally, these rebels cause a lot of problems for Vader later in his life. In the sequel, the death animations for the War Droids involve Starkiller using their own weapons to kill them, with the Carbonite War Droid being frozen before being shattered and the Incinerator War Droid having his fuel lit as he bursts into flames. | |

Call-Forward | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_e3c36782 | comment |
Call-Forward: As a bridge between the fall of the Republic in Revenge of the Sith and the tyranny of the Empire in A New Hope, there are quite a few references to events that have yet to take place. In the Light Side ending, Vader declares that Starkiller is dead, and Palpatine comments that "he is more powerful than we can possibly imagine." In A New Hope, Darth Vader will hear the same words uttered by his enemy, Obi-Wan Kenobi. The crest of the player character's family, the Mareks, is the symbol of the Rebel Alliance, Starbird, which will only come into use after his death. Kota's fleet comes out of hyperspace over Kamino to find that the Empire set a trap and were waiting for them. Sound familiar? The Imperial announcer over Kamino's PA: The databank for the AT-ST has the Empire dismissing outrageous claims that it is prone to "falling over," referring to its downfall in The Empire Strikes Back. Its in-game death animation shows the walker swaying and collapsing just like the stop-motion models in Return of the Jedi. One of the database entries in II is written by one Lieutenant Piete, who hopes to transfer off Vader's ship before receiving any more promotions. | |

Press X to Not Die: After doing enough damage to larger enemies, a prompt will appear that activates a sequence of pre-set button presses that the player must follow in order to complete a cinematic that kills the enemy; otherwise, the player takes damage. The ends of boss battles also use Quicktime Events, although failing to complete them will only Force the player to try again with no threat of death. However, failing a QTE in the Wii version of the sequel, which usually consists of or ends with you quickly shaking your Wii Remote and Nunchuk like there's no tomorrow to fill up a bar before it's too late, results in a Game Over. | |

We Will Use Manual Labor in the Future | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_e77e2787 | comment |
We Will Use Manual Labor in the Future: Or in a galaxy far far away that has space ships, upsidedown cities and other modern marvels. Zig Zagged though, in that it depends on who does it. For example, the Empire's ship-building facilities use state-of-the-art automation for building TIE fighters and even the Executor flagship is assembled by an army of construction droids. However, the novelization states that much of the heavy labor on the Death Star was done by Wookiee slaves. Starkiller frees many of them on his way to fight Vader and the Emperor, so it's not clear who puts the finishing touches on the station afterwards. | |

Mundane Utility | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: Force Lightning, the black line between the light side and the dark side, makes a great lantern. Better than the lightsaber even, which can also find use this way. | |

Being Evil Sucks | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f1919d5b | comment |
Being Evil Sucks: Meta example. Choose the Dark Side Ending and kill for vengeance? Congratulations. Your reward comes in the form of Palpatine murdering all of Starkiller's friends and allies, chucking the Rogue Shadow on top of him, and transforming him into a cyborg much like Vader. Not exactly what most people going that way imagined... | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: General Kota in the first game. While not too difficult, he is the first opponent that can resist and use Force powers that Starkiller (who at this time is considerably weaker than Darth Vader) faces. | |

Deadly Rotary Fan | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f4f01ac | comment |
This actually grants the Poor Bob achievement in the second game; and the overkill of this combo can be increased even more by force pushing them into quickly moving fans or other deadly hazards - like space station windows or heat hazards. | |

Ceiling Smash: The first boss fight ends with a series of quick-time events where the player character lifts the boss into the air with the Force before jumping and slamming the boss's head into the ceiling twice, and Force Pushing the enemy back to the ground. | |

They Were Holding You Back | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f6dc65b1 | comment |
They Were Holding You Back: Vader uses holograms to try to train Starkiller's clones to kill his friends on site. It fails spectacularly, and one of the clones (who may or may not be the original Starkiller) escapes from Vader and goes to reunite with his friends. | |

The Very Definitely Final Dungeon: The last level is a massive Imperial space station with giant lasers flying by every couple of seconds and swarm after swarm of enemy armed to the teeth with the most dangerous weaponry in the game. The name speaks for itself: the Death Star. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: The amount of ways you can kill enemies in the game is ridiculous, from force blasting enemies into the vacuum of space or telepathically lifting them high enough that a light drop will send them hurdling to their death. Penny Arcade has a comic that provides a sample. Apparently the developers read that strip, because in the sequel, you get the "Poor Bob" achievement for Force Gripping a Stormtrooper, then stabbing, shocking and pushing him while in your grip. You can also attack and kill your allies as well with no one to chastise you for it, and even earn Force Points for doing so on the Wii, PS2 and PSP versions. | |

Laser Blade | |

Laser Blade: Lightsaber combat is the second main gameplay element after the Force abilities. Leveling up unlocks new combos for the lightsaber and finding collectibles called "Holocrons" grants the player the ability to change the color and bonuses attached to their lightsaber. | |

Level in Reverse | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_f8f30ffe | comment |
Level in Reverse: Right after going through the Salvation level, the second game has the player go through the level backwards, starting at the boss room. What makes this level different from the one just before is that the ship is now in the middle of a battle, so you have to deal with missiles shattering the hull, stormtroopers boarding the ship, and parts of the ship collapsing outright as you make your way through a level you thought you mastered. | |

Last-Second Ending Choice | |
| The Force Unleashed (Video Game) / int_fb2ff597 | comment |
Last-Second Ending Choice: Whether you get the Light or Dark Side ending depends on a single choice you made before (original) or after (sequel) the Final Boss. In the first game, after beating the second to last boss, you're given the option to continue fighting said boss until you kill him or fight another boss before he can kill the would-be leaders of the rebel Alliance. If you choose the first option Starkiller will fight Vader to the death, but while he does so, Sidious kills the would-be leaders of the Rebel Alliance, and when Starkiller refuses to take Vader's place as Sidious' enforcer and tries to attack him, the Emperor blocks the attack and nearly kills Starkiller in retaliation. Starkiller is then rebuilt into a Vader-like cyborg and forced to serve the Emperor until he can be replaced. If you choose the second option Starkiller will fight the Emperor and pull a Heroic Sacrifice to allow the Rebel Leaders to flee and form the Rebel Alliance. This ending is considered to be the canonical one. In the sequel, there's only one final boss, and after beating him you can either let him live and be captured by your allies or kill him. If you choose the former the Rebels will take Vader prisoner while Starkiller finally reunites with Juno. If you choose the latter another clone of Starkiller reveals himself and kills the original, before saving Vader from the rebels. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max: Starkiller's an incredibly powerful Force user as is, but his abilities are boosted for end-of-boss cutscenes where he can juggle Jedi around with ease, throw large pieces of scenery at his foes, and produce enough lightning to kill an entire Sarlacc pit. | |
