If there's one character safe from the cynical Star Wars group think, it's Maul. Phantom Menace was two years old by the time of THPS3 but I know for a fact people still thought Darth Maul was cool as hell at that point in time. Disney is so precious with their IP that even in their big celebration of Star Wars, Battlefront 2, they half ass all their celebrations to closely protect how their characters are portrayed, in a game that's supposed to be convincing you they're cool! Compare this to Darth Maul just being in a skateboarding game in 2001 and you couldn't have more different ways of doing things. I did mention we weren't done with Disney characters right? Sure, Darth Maul wasn't a Disney character at the time of this games release, hell he wasn't a Disney character until after the Tony Hawk franchise was put on ice, but just think about these characters being used so freely in a Tony Hawk game compared to how they're treated now.
