Rediscover 'Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds,' exploring its impact on RTS gaming and Star Wars lore, from graphics to gameplay and story.
Sagamer: Grey DeLisle was one of the first voice actor names I learnt, way back in 1999 when she played Queen Amidala in the video game of Star Wars Episode I and later in Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. She remains one of my favourite voice actors.
Good Old Games is flaunting some new stock from a galaxy far, far away. Six Star Wars games from the LucasArts classics are on offer today, including Battlefront II, Knights of the Old Republic II and X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter.
EB's Matt Heywood writes, "Star Wars games have been coming out since the release of the first trilogy, but they really didn’t start to shine until they moved from the arcades into the homes of gamers that owned consoles that could play them. The 90′s in particular ushered in a plethora of amazing Star Wars video games for both PCs and home consoles that led to even more great Star Wars gaming experiences in the early 2000′s. Unfortunately, with the advances in technology that have taken place since these games were first released, none of them really hold up visually, so it’s hard to go back and play them after experiencing what a pimped out PC rig, or even the Xbox One and PS4 can offer gamers in terms of visuals, sound, and gameplay.
Luckily for us we live on the Internet where anything is possible, so considering all of the recent HD remastered games that have been released lately (FFX, FFX-2, Fable, TLOU GOW, etc), it sounded like a great idea to list a handful of classic Star Wars games that deserve to have an HD remake too. There are fourteen Star Wars games in particular that really stand out as amazing gameplay experiences, at least for their time, that would surely get Star Wars geeks in a tizzy if they ever released with modern game design techniques."
Give me 'Tie Fighter' & 'Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2' and I'd die a very happy man!
Would certainly be interesting to see how that would pan out for KOTOR 2. Even the DLC for KOTOR 1 would be a nice treat since Original Xbox Live is now down.
Was a fun age of the empires 2 "mod". Empire at war was cool for its time too.
