ApolloVI Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Out of all the licensed brands which have received tie-in video games, I think Star Wars probably has the most impressive legacy, thanks mostly to the impressive run that LucasArts had in the 1990s and early 2000s. Many games were able to rise above the "cheap cash-in" status that most licensed games have and actually achieve something good. Some were even Game-of-the-Year levels of great. While Star Wars gaming might not be what it used to be, it still left an incredible impact on the gaming industry. So I ask, what's your favorite Star Wars video game? Personally, I would have to say Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II - Rogue Leader on the Gamecube. Factor 5 really achieved something amazing in that game. The graphics STILL hold up 17 years later, and it's an incredibly well-made flight combat game. All these years later, and I still have not seen a better representation of the Battle of Yavin, Hoth, or Endor in a video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Dark Forces is probably my all time favourite, but Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II comes a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantanoice Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) Mine is probably "Star Wars: Episode 1:: Racer" on Nintendo 64. I think I made some good time trials times on it, though I didn't spend anywhere near as much time on it as I did Mario Kart. XD There was "Star Wars" on the NES that I played as a kid and I couldn't understand it at all. I think it was my most hated game for a long time. It was a similar deal with "Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire" on Nintendo 64. As for other Star Wars games, I did try the Kinect one at a friend's house. The hand movements barely worked but it was kinda entertaining. I played another Ep1 Pod Racer game at an arcade once. It was fun but I don't remember the name of it. I think it was 2p co-op iirc?

Such an underrated racer with amazing variety. Episode I came out when I was a kid and I loved the podraces, so it was awesome to have a game that took such a deep dive into the whole concept.

DylanC Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I enjoyed Super Star Wars on the SNES back in the day. The Battlefront games on PS2 were pretty damn good as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joant73 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Gotta be the KOTOR games for me. Both those games are amazing. The podracing back in the day was mad fun as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Star Wars: Battlefront II is my favorite of all star wars video games. The storyline and narrative together with the graphics was perfect for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
