* AirborneMook: Battle Droids on S.T.A.P. transports tends to show up in outdoor areas, hovering all over the place until they're cut down.



* TheGoomba: Pilot-class Battle Droids (identified by their blue markings) are unarmed, and dies in ''two'' hits. Followed by regular droids without any coloured markings, who isn't stronger by much. Fittingly enough they're everywhere in the first two stages.




to:

* UnexpectedShmupLevel: One of the Theed levels opens with a cutscene of the player's Jedi taking down a Battle Droid on a S.T.A.P. and suddenly getting an idea after seeing the S.T.A.P. landing beside him / her. Cue the next stage, an overhead shooter with the player flying across the streets blasting enemy droids left and right.

* ContinuitySnarl: Mace Windu's Lightsaber. One could make the argument that Episode II had not yet come out (and was, in fact, barely in production) and Creator/SamuelLJackson had to plead with Creator/GeorgeLucas for the distinctive purple color since Lucas had established "Good guys are blue and green." However, this game features Plo Koon weilding a gold saber and Adi Gallia running around with [[SeriesContinuityError "Bad Guy Red"]]. So with Obi-Wan already using blue (and the force toggles being ColorCodedForYourConvenience), why stick Mace with blue as well?

Notable for being perhaps the first Star Wars game to allow players to play together as Jedi in a two-player, co-op romp through the various scenes of Episode I.

Each Jedi had their own fighting style, and small assortment of unique force powers, as well as the shared ability to block, and redirect shots back at the firers.

It was ported to the Dreamcast later that year with some changes, such as a training mode, and a vs mode. The game was also released on the GBA, two years later, as ''Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles''.

!!This game has the following Tropes:

* ContinuitySnarl: Mace Windu's Lightsaber. One could make the argument that Episode II had not yet come out (and was, in fact, barely in production) and SamuelLJackson had to plead with GeorgeLucas for the distinctive purple color since Lucas had established "Good guys are blue and green." However, this game features Plo Koon weilding a gold saber and Adi Gallia running around with [[SeriesContinuityError "Bad Guy Red"]]. So with Obi-Wan already using blue (and the force toggles being ColorCodedForYourConvenience), why stick Mace with blue as well?
** Funnily enough, the Dreamcast version of the game included Ki-Adi-Mundi as a playable character, who is given a purple blade.
* FragileSpeedster: Adi Gallia
* LogoJoke: The Lucas Arts logo guy must have been a favorite of the dev team; Not only does he turn the swoop above his head into a lightsaber, deflecting a pair of blaster shots, but he leaps into the screen to deal with his unseen attacker.
* MightyGlacier: Plo Koon
* MythologyGag / TakeThat: Which character of the initial set can easily defeat Darth Maul in the final battle by spamming X (on the Playstation), chipping away Maul's health and preventing him from counterattacking? [[spoiler:Why, [[TheObiWan Qui-Gon]] [[SacrificialLion Jinn]], of course!]]
** And doing this unlocks Maul himself as a playable character (albeit with a single blade), who can dispatch his doppelganger in a similarly quick fashion, and with the same button.
*** Which lets Maul string a combo identical to [[spoiler:Obi-Wan's]] Square-Button combo. So that's three easy-kills.
* TankGoodness: One of the stages allows the player(s) to jump into an AAT tank, and go blasting around the city of Theed.
* TheMario: Mace Windu
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: The route taken by unlockable characters [[spoiler:Queen Amidala and Captain Panaka, (both unlocked when you beat the game with Obi-Wan)]]
