No way bro the nostalgia is insane I remember playing this around Christmas time back in the days when times where much easier what a throw back and what a warm feeling
The controls are so bad, you have to basically tug your joystick to move it. Still beat this though. Haven't tried the og gunship Calvary bc it's a sidescroller
One thing I hate is that my PS2 is so old, that when you die on this level, it bugs it out and you have to reset the whole thing, and so I have to see that first cutscene 100 times, so I can’t beat it
Ah reading the comments im so glad im not the only one who found this hard. After some practice finishing isn't too bad.. but filling up that jedi meter thing.. im planning to get the invincibility thing before i try that
I set my kids (5 & 9) with my xbox and lego star wars. Couple hours go by and they come get me.. "Daddy, can you help us?" Yeah sure buddy, be right there... 35 minutes of yelling and cussing later, I got it done for them. Holy shit how were little kids supposed to beat this game??
i've completed this once on switch. it took me a day. then someone in my family 'borrowed' my switch. i had to start all over again. if i see that blunt.....he's going to be explaining to the police what the fuck happened
I highly recommend giving The Complete Saga a go if you only ever played the original. They made certain levels like this one in particular a lot more fair and less frustrating.
I'm so proud of my 7 yo self finishing this in the original lego star wars where it was harder. Took me a lot of attempts to finish it Edit: rip joystick and x button
tbh i don’t even have the memory of me beating this as a kid but i know i did cause the memories i do have of this level are just of me being super focused on it
This is better then the new one :( I had to come back here to be sure but this is def better!! Edit. I’m enjoying the new game a lot! But the pod race was a missed opportunity and it seems they missed a few things here and there but 8/10 so far
@@angelpangel9669 yeah and there is no tension?!? SABULBA doesn’t blow up any of the racers or even crash at the end? If you had never seen the movie you wouldn’t even know why he was significant or why you even had to fix anakins pod.
I don’t know why people are saying that this level is so hard to complete. I was able to finish this level in about 10 minutes. I’m currently playing the PS2 version of the game, so far it’s awesome!
In the original Lego Star Wars? Yeah. The timing is extremely harsh, especially for this early in the game. They neutered the difficulty dramatically for The Complete Saga, and I imagine that it will be as easy in the upcoming Skywalker Saga too.
There is something screwy about this level for me. After the cutscene when Mawhonic explodes and the game resumes, I don't have enough time to reach the boost, and pass the falling rock before it kills me. But once in a blue moon it works normally like a game is supposed to. Has anyone else had this same thing happen?
The only think you have to do is to press up botton in order to go faster. I realise it after a month. I used only left right and couldnt reach him. Keep pressing up button to run and left right. I did it with my son finally
No, it was present in the original game and had been greatly streamlined in the Complete Saga, though the original race was available as a bonus level.
At 1:17 look at the crowd and those people on of them is a 2d Podracer ANAKIN! I thought he was in the race not in the crowd look closely and then you will see it.
This was dark souls before dark souls
Hahahah what about Gunship Calvary lolll
Bany is a realy good friend request on roblox in a yoda voice
@@SirSaturnine8008 still easier than this shit
i played this again yesterday. I got ptsd from the flashbacks.
Demon's Souls: Am I a joke to you?
This literally feels like it's one of the hardest LEGO stages ever created....
I can not tell you how many times I saw 5:41
Or this 7:03
I swear😂😂
@@xebas7511 this sound haunted me for 20 years of my life
@@xebas7511I love how Anakin dying is the most replayed lol
I remember throwing my controller on the floor in frustration because of this level when I was a kid lmao
Same. I remember playing this on Xbox and I was pushing X (for speed I think) so hard but it still did nothing
i needed to ask my mom to help me beat this one XD
Me at 24 years old🤣
@@reynon6827 🤣🤣🤣😅😂
You're really good at this game. It took me so many attempts to finally beat this level. This level is so hard
Samsung pro LEGO Games are hard tbh
James Bowles I hate this level so much and I agree
@@legoboy12336 wow u commented after 3 years
Ikr
To this day I can’t beat this level on Xbox 😞
I hated the original Pod race level, the complete saga is much more easier and less fustrating
true
You can play the original pod race level on the complete saga
@@gonkdroid539 pls tell how
Dep96 it may be in the bonus level area if I remember correctly
It took me 5 tries in the complete saga for the Wii
I’m 19 years old and I’ve had a hard time beating this level, just imagine 8 year old me.
*Instructions unclear; died over 500 times to timer running out and by wall bonking*
This had to be the hardest level in gaming history at that point in time 😭
So many memories. This level took me a whole summer to complete when I was a kid
Seeing this gives me PTSD
Me too 😖
One day at a time 😊
This stage was evil.
Ikr I hate it so much!
😈
top ten things eminem Is afraid to diss
This level is frustrating and harf
This might be harder than the sans fight
For real
I literally never finished this game as a kid because of this level
Yeah i somehow managed to complete it as a 7 year old, but i remember it taking hours
No way bro the nostalgia is insane I remember playing this around Christmas time back in the days when times where much easier what a throw back and what a warm feeling
Im boutta cry holy crap i havent seen this game is so long
The nostalgia is real 😢
@@idrinkrawmilk554 another year later omg
@@rumblingsun yeah its crazy, i remember so much from this it was my favorite game by far
This shit took me forever to get through
I can't tell you the number of times that I had to respawn on this level
That timer gave me PTSD
Me too....
The controls are so bad, you have to basically tug your joystick to move it. Still beat this though. Haven't tried the og gunship Calvary bc it's a sidescroller
3:07 i only remember this cutscene from when i was a kid trying so hard for 2 hours and never able to finish it
Where boys became men:
This level took me several days to finish when I was a kid.
This is the moment I realized how lucky I am for having a bigger brother.
my father passed this for me when I was a little child XD
My whole estate used to come around to try and pass this levels
How I miss playing this level and this game.
One thing I hate is that my PS2 is so old, that when you die on this level, it bugs it out and you have to reset the whole thing, and so I have to see that first cutscene 100 times, so I can’t beat it
I spent almost the whole afternoon trying to finish this one level :3
Ah reading the comments im so glad im not the only one who found this hard. After some practice finishing isn't too bad.. but filling up that jedi meter thing.. im planning to get the invincibility thing before i try that
I still remember playing this everyday I was like 6 at the time
I remember this being really hard as a kid, but I just played it yesterday and made it on the first attempt no problem
I still can’t beat this level 😔
I set my kids (5 & 9) with my xbox and lego star wars. Couple hours go by and they come get me.. "Daddy, can you help us?"
Yeah sure buddy, be right there...
35 minutes of yelling and cussing later, I got it done for them. Holy shit how were little kids supposed to beat this game??
I honestly can't believe I beat this as a kid
This took tears last night
man, starting @ the back during the start, thats Bull Butter.
i've completed this once on switch. it took me a day. then someone in my family 'borrowed' my switch. i had to start all over again. if i see that blunt.....he's going to be explaining to the police what the fuck happened
This is the best podracer race I´ve seen since Episode 1 Racer on Nintendo 64. I love the engine movement the podracer has.
Whenever you feel bad, just remember there is a person out there who is responsible for designing this demonic level…
I remember this being hard back in 2008
lmao the copyrighted music silence
My Gosh this level was a torture when I was a kid
This is the reason I stopped playing this game
I highly recommend giving The Complete Saga a go if you only ever played the original. They made certain levels like this one in particular a lot more fair and less frustrating.
pls play the tcs version the difficulty is fixed to be more fair, the whole game is a piece of art
I'm so proud of my 7 yo self finishing this in the original lego star wars where it was harder. Took me a lot of attempts to finish it
Edit: rip joystick and x button
Lol so true
Same (except I was like 4 when I beat it)
Even though it took me hours or something to beat it
F for your joystick and x button that sacrifice for this level in star wars 🫡
I love how you’re still commenting after 11 years 🔥
Bro it was such an intence experience back there
Bro this is nostalgic as f***.
3:15 you dont even know how focking many times I failed this part,
When I wars younger
i only played the nintendo ds version of this and i must say ITS WAY EASIER
i failed less in the sans fight than the podrace
He got so close to True Jedi
Most People think that this is hard, but most forget to press on the gas and only steer
That's Damn level....
BRO ME AND MY BROTHER TOOK 6 WEEKS TO BEAT THIS DAMN RACING GAME
tbh i don’t even have the memory of me beating this as a kid but i know i did cause the memories i do have of this level are just of me being super focused on it
This is better then the new one :( I had to come back here to be sure but this is def better!!
Edit. I’m enjoying the new game a lot! But the pod race was a missed opportunity and it seems they missed a few things here and there but 8/10 so far
Yeah i knew i wasnt the only one. This old pod racing level is goated
Fr man, the new one is just to easy
@@angelpangel9669 yeah and there is no tension?!? SABULBA doesn’t blow up any of the racers or even crash at the end? If you had never seen the movie you wouldn’t even know why he was significant or why you even had to fix anakins pod.
How it feels to watch Dwayne Johnson’s Jungle Cruise movie.
I don’t know why people are saying that this level is so hard to complete. I was able to finish this level in about 10 minutes. I’m currently playing the PS2 version of the game, so far it’s awesome!
Mate we’re saying it was hard to complete for any 9 year old which it was
This is where men cried
The bastard literally pulled the money out of his pocket
So, if Anakin Skywalker ACTUALLY lost the Podrace, then he would still be a slave boy on Tatooine, so he wouldn't be able to become Darth Vader.
Fucking Zebulba let us all down.
7 year old me did not enjoy this level.
This level use to piss me off as a kid. Especially everytime his ship blows up or his ship stops throwing a fit.
I prefer the third person perspective from this one as apposed to the new one. The new one also feels too easy.
Whoever decided to make this race AND add the 10 minikits should be charged with cruel and unsual punishment 😭😭
Everybody talking about the podrace being hard:
Me who beat it in my 1st try: Wait, excuse me, It's supposed to be a hard level?
In the original Lego Star Wars? Yeah. The timing is extremely harsh, especially for this early in the game.
They neutered the difficulty dramatically for The Complete Saga, and I imagine that it will be as easy in the upcoming Skywalker Saga too.
as a kid it took me so many tries i gave up and had to get my brother to help
This gives me ptsd
7:02 I knew I wasn't crazy, I remembered a crash scene that wasn't in the Complete Saga for the wii.
Anyone else have PTSD over this shit?
I'm sitting here tripping tf out how this was difficult for most of the ppl here
NOW THIS IS PODRACING
You can get a fail cutscene if you die or fail to complete a section before the timer runs out
I didn't even know you could go faster by using the dpad lmao
I sold my soul to Satan to beat this level
Man I thought I just sucked but looking back this shit was hard
This is the real shit, new ones is basically on rails
There is something screwy about this level for me. After the cutscene when Mawhonic explodes and the game resumes, I don't have enough time to reach the boost, and pass the falling rock before it kills me.

*Espa Flashback*
One word ..... PTSD
The only think you have to do is to press up botton in order to go faster. I realise it after a month. I used only left right and couldnt reach him. Keep pressing up button to run and left right. I did it with my son finally
hehe i dnt know why i watchign this even though i completed game 3 years ago but it brought back memories and ur pretty gd matey :P
You mean the original pod-racing game? Yeah they were great, the sequel actually runs on an PS2-emulator if you want to try that.
@123456 78910 why are you always saying fuck you on every lego-related video?
The pain
They didn’t make it through True Jedi Riley but at least you got all 10 minket
10 years! I tried for10 years! (obviously not everyday but oh my!)
I like how ya’ll are saying it took you forever to beat this level but i beat it in about 15 minutes ON THE MOBILE VERSION
These people are talking about when they were little, also they updated it in the newer versions to be super easy
I have no recollection how i beat this
But then again i had a autistic obsession with every lego game created
Where boys become men
Never realized that the analog stick controls the speed
والله ايام لمن كنت في استراليا ولعبتها اول ما انزلت ❤😢
we're watching Phantom Menace, on Disney+ 😁
It's been a long time since I last played Lego Star Wars that I don't seem to recall a Podrace Level. Was this added in Complete Saga?
No, it was present in the original game and had been greatly streamlined in the Complete Saga, though the original race was available as a bonus level.
Fantastic Stuff.
At 1:17 look at the crowd and those people on of them is a 2d Podracer ANAKIN! I thought he was in the race not in the crowd look closely and then you will see it.
Sorry but its not on the screen where it shows anakin its where the monster guy is there.
This stage was infuriating!!
i never had that much trouble with this level, to be honest.
I didnt really suffer from it.
If I recall this level doesn't have checkpoints right?
High stress stage for child game.
