I know a lot of people complain about these games difficulty and yes they are tough but not any tougher than other games of this era.

People overlook a real rarity here. The Super Star Wars trilogy is a very faithful recreation of all three movies as the go by scene to scene and let you play as all the main characters. Each with their own quirks. It's actually very consistent. It's amazing to me a movie licensed trilogy turned out as good as it did.
