8 Video Game Movie Adaptations That Were Better Than We Remember
4. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith (PS2/XBOX)
Unpopular Opinion: The best things to come out of the Prequel Trilogy might have been hilarious memes and this game.
Previous Star Wars games had tried to branch out with their own storylines and exploration, and so a direct copy of Revenge of the Sith might have been accused of being uninspired.
But when players were cutting through the maps as Obi-Wan or Anakin, and slicing up droids and stormtroopers, the game would suddenly stop and incorporate incredible one-on-one boss missions where they went against actual characters from the films.
Count Dooku, General Grievous and even Mace Windu play as fodder to the narrative, and exercising button-mashing against them was a delight. Even more so are the alternative timelines in which "The High Ground" scene goes a different way. A truly memorable mission is playing as Anakin as he executes Order 66 with justified and true form.
It's honestly a wonderful game. After completing the campaign, you and a friend could do one-on-one lightsaber battles as any character, thus fulfilling the awesome fan-fiction you had in your head of Darth Vader waging war with General Grievous
