3) While playing in Conquest Mode as Han Solo, you can occasionally hear one of the Imperial Troopers say, “Hey! Solo shot first! That’s not fair!” while Han is killing other troopers. This is a reference to a difference between the Special Edition version of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977) and the original version. Specifically, the scene where Greedo confronts Han in the Mos Eisley cantina was edited, featuring a laser bolt from Greedo’s weapon that barely misses Han’s head just before Han kills Greedo. In the original version, Han did indeed shoot first, killing Greedo before Greedo had a chance to shoot (the in-game remark about unfairness presumably referring to the fact that, in the Special Edition movie version, Han clearly killed in self-defense, while the killing of Greedo in the original version was a more questionable use of pre-emptive self-defense).
4) General Veers is voiced by Jamie Glover, son of Julian Glover, who played the part in Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980).
Errors made by characters
1) The clone troopers hold weapons in their right hand (with their left to steady two-handed weapons), meaning they are right handed, but on the cover of the game case, the trooper has the gun in his left hand. If all of the troopers were cloned from Jango Fett, they would all be right handed.
Continuity
1) In the cut scene before the Felucia: Heart of Darkness level, Aayla Secura has a blue and a purple lightsaber, but during gameplay, she has a blue and green lightsaber.
Audio/visual unsynchronized
1) During the space fight scenes, two targets on the enemy vessel are the Communications Array and the Sensor Relay. However, when the voice of your commander refers to them he says the Communications Relay and the Sensor Array, mixing the two up.
Plot holes
1) In the first level of the Rise of the Empire campaign, the player is told by the retired clone trooper that they were covertly seeking an experimental power source to be used for the chancellor’s ‘superlaser,’ unbeknownst to the suspecting Jedi. As he is both leader of the republic as the chancellor, and of the CIS as Darth Sidius, he would have little trouble in obtaining the power source, and, in fact, should probably have had knowledge of it. The chancellor is a very powerful Sith and would not have jeopardized his plan any more than it needed to by sending the troops on an unnecessary mission.
