If you watched Clone Wars Anakin was awesome. The whole Jedi bullshite dogma of attachments was what screwed Anakin up.

it takes more than just taking out bad guys to be a good Jedi.

Anakin was always too emotional, even in the Clone Wars series.

There is also the whole Jedi thing about finding peace with death, and Anakin could not accept Padme's potential death. (this also goes against the whole attachments thing you already mentioned)

It really goes back to the death of his mother. Like any kid, he loved his mother. He's taken away on this grand adventure and even during testing he told the Jedi Council he missed her. Had they returned to Tatooine to free his mom and bring her back mom could have been an asset to Anakin's upbringing.

The Jedi's view on attachments and being too caught up in their hubris is what caused Anakin to flip. The only person he could talk to about is true feelings was Palpatine. When he spoke with Yoda about sensing Padme's future demise Yoda basically said frick here. Let her go.
