The Battle of Hoth looked and felt like the movie, you get to steal the space shuttle Tydirium which will later be used by Han and Co. The scope of that stage was unparalleled at the time, and though games after certainly have been able to surpass Rogue Leader from a technical standpoint, few have managed to equal the sheer awe upon seeing what seemed like hundreds of TIEs, Interceptors, and Star Destroyers bearing down seemingly out of nowhere, just like the in the movie, hundreds of lasers bursting forth all at once.
The spectacle was enough to convince a devoted PC gamer friend of mine to pick up his first Nintendo console ever. Check it out below:. Bonus stages included the Millennium Falcon navigating the asteroid field, the Death Star escape, and even an alternate universe where Vader wins during the Battle of Yavin, killing Biggs, Wedge, and Luke!
Voice acting peppered throughout including Denis Lawson resuming the role of Wedge and superb sound design contribute to the feeling that you are there, and a host of unlockable spacecraft, like Slave I , the Naboo starfighter, an Imperial shuttle, and a convertible car, naturally.
Any little touch, any little detail that developer Factor 5 could throw in, they did, and the result is nothing short of magnificent. A Jedi craves not these things. Which makes the follow-up to Rogue Leader , Rebel Strike , the perfect game for padawan wannabes.

Fans of the franchise are still reeling from the cancellation of Star Wars , an incredible looking game that was in development in the early s and saw the player controlling none other than Boba Fett.
However, in , GameCube owners did get to enjoy something similar, as players controlled Jango Fett in a game based in six different worlds and saw players face off against the darkest Jedi.
The game is extremely unpolished and the graphics a pretty blotchy. Being a squadron for the rebels, players can operate not only X-wings, but also speeder bikes, AT-STs, and so many more. Not only that, but there are some on foot missions with a ton of shootouts with Stormtroopers.
