This is true, in fact one could argue he's more of a Jedi here than Anakin is, as he spared the Emperor and Vader, where as Anakin decapitated Dooku, in malice.
Except one couldn't argue that. Anakin was given a choice whether or not to kill Dooku. He could, and did. Galen was never given the choice to kill Sidious. He couldn't, even though he tried.
Originally posted by Red NemesisSure he was. Look at 5:45 - 6:20.

I haven't played the game but based on this cut scene, it looks like Starkiller is definitely a match for Palpatine. I could be 100% wrong of course.
The official databank says in Starkiller's entry that he was "ultimately no match for the power of Darth Sidious" despite becoming one with the Force in his final attack.
Originally posted by SIDIOUS 66No that was releasing his power at the time. Given another 30 years of training and experience, that explosion could theoretically have taken out the entire station. Theoretically.
When he became one with the force and caused the explosion, wasn't it kinda like releasing his full potency?

Technically, it's different. "Jedi" Marek. He'd lose by the way, his Dark Side counterpart defeated Kota, the crazy guy, and Shaak Ti. Thus making his Light self less badass and therefore unable to ahndle RotS Anakin. Ugh, I feel so dirty.
Nope. As a Lightsider he has all of the skill and experience he had when he defeated those three, and more. Plus he has a lot more clarity of mind and heart.
Heck, his Light self utterly defeated Darth Vader who is more skilled, experienced, refined and controlled than his RotS self. Not to mention he fought and beat PROXY who was using Anakin's appearance and skills, which gives him the advantage of foreknowledge.
So I'd say Lightside Galen is a lot MORE 'badass' than his Dark self and would beat Anakin.
