As an impressionable child in the Star Wars prequel era, I was perfectly positioned to be completely blown away by Jedi Power Battles when it first released back in 2000. Its cinematic lightsaber combat fueled my love of the franchise, and Plo Koon was permanently burned into my brain as the coolest possible answer to the question "Who's your favourite Jedi?"
All of which made me a little nervous about checking out the new remaster. I've long harbored the suspicion that the game in my memories would not hold up to modern scrutiny. And… well, I was pretty much right, but what surprised me is how much it's made me wish that developers still made Star Wars games like this today.
