** Galen isn't the first ''Legends'' Force user to use force telekinesis to move or halt the movement of an entire star destroyer, with Rivi-Anu having done that while making a HeroicSacrifice in a ''ComicBook/CloneWarsAdventures'' comic two years before the game.

* OlderThanTheyThink: The developers spent a lot of time talking about the game's materials system in pre-release interviews like they were the first ones to implement such a thing. [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 They were late by four years,]] and ironically, one of the criticisms of the game found in many reviews is that the system is ultimately underused to the point of being barely noticeable.

** A lot of the beats of this story were used almost three years before the game came out in the ambiguously canon manga story ''Perfect Evil,'' which also features Vader taking on a NobleTopEnforcer secret apprentice who he recruits after slaughtering Jedi who the young man was with (Starkiller's parents in this game) who he is [[spoiler:later forced to betray once Palpatine learns of the apprentice]] and who [[spoiler:ultimately dies on the side of the Light.]] For added points, a Twi'lek Jedi from the ActionPrologue of ''Perfect Evil'' wears a skimpy top and pair of pants that strongly resemble the wardrobe Maris Brood has in this game.

** "You agreed to stay away!" "{{I lied}}..." [[labelnote:Explantion]]Galen's protest to Vader after he attacked the Rebel leaders he assembled per his instructions and Vader's WhamLine response. Has lead to several edits including [[https://youtu.be/DqlktpdVvvg one]] where Vader responds "[[Series/PeepShow Hitler promised not to invade Czechoslovakia... Welcome to the real world.]]" [[/labelnote]]
** "If you fail, she dies." [[labelnote:Explantion]] From the sequel when Vader holds Juno hostage, coercing clone Starkiller to follow a {{long list}} of demands, each and every one of which predicated with "If you resist/fail, she dies." The {{narm}}y nature of this scene made it seem like an unintentional OverlyLongGag, with some people adding additional ridiculous demands in a similar vein to Vader's "I have altered the deal" line from ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack.'' [[/labelnote]]
** "Your feelings for her are not real." "THEY ARE ''REAL'' TO ME!!" [[labelnote:Explantion]]In the second game, the FinalBoss, Vader, tells clone Starkiller that his feelings for Juno are not real with the first line, considering he's a clone of Galen Marek, followed by the clone retorting with the second. It's recently become [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75Qh38x2xBE something of a joke]] to post the above two lines alongside a picture of a (usually female) fictional character to demonstrate a fan's PerverseSexualLust.[[/labelnote]]

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The second game compared to its novelization: the book gives just as much page time to Juno and the fledgling rebellion, and even sends her on a complicated infiltration mission with Admiral Akbar and Proxy. The game could have made the story more substantial and extended the gameplay by depicting Juno's story alongside Starkiller's

Not a single one of Kota's men is named, but there is a definite impression that some author could write a whole book series about all of the stories that those soldiers doubtlessly have to tell.
