A ''[[Star Wars]]''-based multimedia project, like ''[[Shadows of the Empire]]'' eleven years before it. Covers a wide range of mediums including [[Comic Books]], a novel (by [[Sean Williams]]), action figures and a [[Role-Playing Game]], but the [[Video Game]] has received most of the attention. The new feature that has been paraded around is an advanced graphic and physics engine, allowing visuals and gameplay features that were impossible before. The environments are huge and you are capable of manipulating (and destroying) almost anything. You know some of the things Mace Windu and Yoda do in ''[[Star Wars: Clone Wars]]'' (flinging around star fighters, ripping apart armies with little trouble)... it's kind of like that.

* [[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: Finishing moves in boss fights. Come to think of it, this is actually the only way that he actually kills any bosses.

* [[Darker and Edgier]]: The creators claim this for the story of the sequel with it being [[It's Personal|more personal]] for Starkiller. Turned out to be ironic {{spoiler|since the sequel has a far happier ending than the first game.}}

** The series however is quick darker in general compared to [[Star Wars]] video games and even the trilogy itself. You are not some plucky Rebel resistance member who acquires the power of the force but rather an [[Anti-Villain]] turned [[Anti-Hero]] (possibly, unless you are playing the DLC which then turns the [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Up to Eleven]] as you completely destroy all hope) who works for the Empire (or rather Vader).

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Starkiller goes into this territory sometimes, more obvious in the second game when another character is running Mission Control.

* [[In the Hood]]: Several of Starkiller's outfits, most notably the "Jedi Adventure Robe" which he wears at the end.

* [[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.

** Oddly, the concept art of Starkiller did look just like Sam Witwer before he was cast in the part.

* [[Invulnerable Attack]]

** A Rancor, you know, like Jabba's [[Fluffy the Terrible|pet]], gets tossed about like a squeaky toy by the Gorog.

* [[World of Cardboard Speech]]: In the sequel, Starkiller pretty much gives one of these to Vader.

* [[Wreaking Havok]]: See [[Person of Mass Destruction]] and [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]] above.

* [[Xanatos Gambit]]: Darth Vader puts in motion a gambit that helps regain much of his intergalactic badass quality he might have lost over the years. {{spoiler|Even if, somehow, the members of the new rebel alliance escape, he still knows who they are.}}
