Star Wars - Rebel Assault |
||||||||||||||||||
"Rebel forces have won their first battle against the dark side... But the battle has only just begun" "As Rookie One, You are thrust into a 3D galaxy far, far, away to crush the evil Empire once and for all. Take your T16 Skyhopper on a training run through Beggar's Canyon... Then dodge asteroids and blast TIE fighter sin a deep space rumble... tackle a fleet on menacing AT-ATs on the icy tundra of Hoth... and ultimately annihilate Vader and the evil Empire with a kamikaze trench-run in the infamous Death Star." |

Your chance to be someone who isn't Luke Skywalker (honest) take on the Empire. The opening levels are slow, concentrating on flight training at the rebel base, but a password system means that you only have to get through them once. Levels vary between space battles, surface fights and on-foot sections, adding some variety. The graphics are perhaps a little rough, but you can always see what's happening. Cut scenes are a mixture of sections from the film and new footage to provide a background story, and look surprisingly good - but are sadly unskippable. The sound is, of course, excellent, from the opening theme, through the speech both in cut-scenes and the game, to X-Wing lasers sounding exactly as they should. A challenging and enjoyable game that is quite easy to find. | ||
