1* BeamMeUpScotty: Contrary to a certain meme, Boss canceling Scorch's order to plant an explosive doesn't result in the latter saying "Your tactics confuse and frighten me, sir." His actual quote is "Your behavior frightens and confuses me, sir."
2* DummiedOut:
3** Subtitle files indicate that the developers originally intended for Delta Squad to encounter a Clone Medic and a commando called Delta 36 whose designation (01/136) makes it apparent that Darman from the ''Republic Commando'' novels was based upon him (he does get mentioned in the game proper, but was merely another commando squad leader who was killed in action).
4** A part on the ''Prosecutor'' where Boss was to observe a meeting between the Trandoshans and General Grievous (then unknown to the Clones), which would culminate in the General's revelation on Kashyyyk.
5** On Geonosis, Fixer was to have a scene involving an anti-air turret:
6--->'''Fixer:''' Accessing Anti-Air controls. Ooh, this is nice. I can do much better than just "offline". Separatist turrets now targeting... Separatist craft.\
7'''Scorch:''' Fixer, you're sick. I respect that.
8* ExecutiveMeddling: A ''positive'' example. ''Creator/GeorgeLucas'' himself is responsible for the unique armor markings Delta Team sports. While impressed with the footage he was shown, he believed individual colors for the various commandos would help distinguish them better, and the end results speaks for itself.
9* NoPortForYou: The 2021 HD version wasn't released on Platform/XboxOne due to the original Xbox version already being playable on the same system (and the new version not offering anything new aside from widescreen). It also helps that the Xbox version has multiplayer, unlike Aspyr's barebones port.
10* TheOtherDarrin: While all the clones in ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'' and ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' were voiced by Creator/TemueraMorrison, here, he only voices Boss. The other clones are voiced by Raphael Sbarge (Scorch), Jonathan David Cook (Sev), and Andrew Chaikin (Fixer).
11* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
12** The sequel, ''Imperial Commando'', was axed. This left us with an unresolved {{Cliffhanger}} ending -- the game cuts out right as the survivors of Delta Squad are being sent to the front lines one more time on the eve of Order 66.
13*** According to lead programmer Brett Douville, there were two directions they were debating taking the sequel: one which focuses on Delta Squad getting caught up in the execution of Order 66 and having to take down Jedi, the other focusing on Sev going on to become the first soldier in the nascent Rebellion and sharing his tactical knowledge.
14** Co-op was something that the development team considered, but they had to axe that option given the realities of how difficult co-op can be to develop for. One of those, "It would be great, but we don't have the time/budget for it."
