| Description |
|
It is a time soon after the destruction of the first Death Star. Luke Skywalker has formed a squadron of hot-shot pilots to engage the still-formidable Imperial forces. You, as Luke, must lead this rogue squadron in a series of galaxy-spanning raids and rescues. To complete all your missions, youll need good flying skills, fast reflexes, a keen eye and a quick trigger finger. You get to fly all your favourite ships: The X-wing, Y-wing, snowspeeder--even the Millennium Falcon. There are also some secret ships, such as the sleek Naboo Starfighter from Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace, a TIE interceptor, and a 78 Buick. The flight simulation in this game is first-rate. Youll find yourself leaning to the side as you pull a high-G turn in pursuit of Imperial TIE fighters. And the outstanding graphics and sounds are realistic enough to transport you to the Star Wars universe. Every detail is in place, right down to the individual Stormtroopers you can see running around (and trying to shoot you). One of the more impressive sequences lets you bring down Imperial Walkers by using the tow cables on your snowspeeder. Nice touch. This is a single-player game, but you start each mission with a few wingmen from your squadron, and the well-done spoken dialogue between pilots and commanders really makes you feel like part of a team. The only significant shortcoming is the lack of a cooperative multiplayer option. With its excellent gameplay, varied environments and interesting missions, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron is sure to become a long-time favourite. --Eric Fredrickson Pros: - Faithful to lots of Star Wars details
- Satisfying flight action, explosions, sound effects
- Interesting missions and plot
- See--and fight over--the Spice mines of Kessel and other famous Star Wars planets
Cons: - For some reason, you can only fly clockwise when bringing down a Walker
- No easy setting for those without The Force
- Voices of Luke, Wedge and Han dont sound like the real thing
