** The databank page for the Terror Trooper is incredibly creepy. A salvage crew discovers a derelict ship and thinks they've gotten a lucky break. But it's not. One crew member is sucked out of an airlock. Another is impaled by a burst length of pipe. A third is messily decapitated in a ventilation shaft. And even when the salvage crew retreats and abandons the derelict ship, their own ships seems to be developing its own mechanical problems that hint at someone on board who doesn't belong there.

* Taking place after the Dark Side ending, Starkiller becomes Darth Sidious's apprentice. As Lord Starkiller, the Apprentice proves to be a powerful VillainProtagonist who successfully manages to derail the events of the Original Trilogy by killing off Ben Kenobi and then eventually defeating Luke Skywalker and corrupting him to the dark side.
** Speaking of Luke, both fights with him are a brutal CurbstompBattle in your favour, allowing you to play the role of a powerful Sith lord and worthy successor of Darth Vader. During the second fight, Luke quickly gives into the dark side and ends up becoming Fallen Luke. In this form, Luke's voice becomes deeper and it's clear that the Dark Side has utterly corrupted him. The battle ends with you successfully corrupting him into ''your'' apprentice.

* Wii/PlayStation 2 version: the Jedi Temple, or what's left of it, can be quite... unnerving. The whole place is a shattered wreck of crumbling debris, and more often than not you'll be wandering through dark and empty halls, when you start hearing ''voices'' whispering all around you. It's too quiet to make out, but you get the unshakable feeling they're talking about ''you'', and they come from ''everywhere''. It makes for a suitably creepy atmosphere, given you're intruding on what is essentially a massive tomb for the entire Jedi Order. And it's not just ''one'' level either. You have to trek through here multiple times throughout the game.
