I fell to my death a few times on Bespin due to the step forward during combos issue.

Also, the second jedi fight on the junk planet was infuriating due to that issue. Both the player and the boss would step forward, causing the boss to be placed behind the player. Then the boss would get an immediate back attack and pretty much eat up 1/4 or more of Starkiller's health.

I've died plenty of times to the continuous streak of stun attacks. Rancors on Felucia (sp?) were the most notorious. Especially the uncontrolled one. He could swing in the air, knock Starkiller out of an air combo and then stomp a few times in a row. Add a swarm of jedi trained enemies with a commander hiding on the opposite side of the map, yet still buffing his cronies, and I about had it. Force repulse was the only thing that saved me in that section.

Also, I dislike the whole QT button press during miniboss fights. I'm violently mashing square, and when a QT section comes up that doesn't start with square, I auto-fail it. There's no warning that you have to stop mashing combos.

As far as the space survival thing. Starkiller does say "You killed me!". Which makes me believe he was resuscitated. I know that you shouldn't be able to be revived from exposure, what with your blood boiling, most of your internal organs trying to escape out of through mouth, and then the ultimate freezing from sub zero temperatures, but he is strong with the force.

Found another glaring issue I had with the game.

I'm doing the Vader fight near the end, and I get knocked over. (big surprise!) Vader ground stabs me in a corner, which causes me to fall over again. He literally ground stabbed me to death (full health bar).

Overall, I liked the game. It has some glaring flaws, but I'll let that pass for some honestly cool portions of the game.
