Think Jedi Starfighter is just another Star Wars game with the same light saber action and same characters. THINK AGAIN!!

In this chapter of Star Wars the Force is even more important than before and the galaxy is in your hands

The game starts with you Jedi Adi Gallia being sent by the Jedi council to investigate disturbances in the Karthakk system. As Episode II unfolds you and the new Force powered Jedi craft have to take on the greedy trade Federation.

The game also boasts a very good Training Level which teaches you all you need to know about inter galactic combat. It shows you all about focusing your Jedi Powers into your craft and how to use your standard rockets and laser bullets.

If you enjoyed Episode II then this game is for you. With characters, story connections, key locations and craft you feel as if you’re inside the movie.

With over 40 new ships to fly from previous Starfighter editions you can’t get board.

When enjoying this game the word ‘addiction’ springs to mind because once you start you just won’t want to stop.

The game also has an impressive two player more where you can take part in good old-fashioned STAR WARS with your mates.

One of the things I enjoyed about this game is that you are always in a craft. I found it a refreshing change from hitting buttons and waving around a light saber.

This game is an asset to any fans collection but if you aren’t a Star Wars fan think again before buying it.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU

I Brought Galactic Beattle grounds last november, took it home and my computer would'nt handle it - Even though the demo of it i'd played earlier did!

This is because most of the money is spent on the lisence instead of the game.

I did write it as a review but I didn't take it from any mag.

And in my comment about you saying things were crap. That was about the fact you are always so negative.

I havn.t read any thing from you which was about a game or showing your opinion on something, like my Starfighter review.

In the future please be polite enough not to just dismiss peoples comments and opinions.

Thats all it was - my opinion but all you had to say was I copyed it from a mag.

In you didn't agree then say why it was a 'CRAP' game or a crap post.

I think Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic and Star Wars: Galaxies will be better. :-)

I also just recently got Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds and the Attack Of The Clones expansion pack which I really like. :-)

Thing is with a lot of Star Wars games, they tend to have downfalls which often make you think that something is lacking.
I like Rogue Squadron and Rogue Leader, but theres faults with both that bring them down for me. With Rogue Squadron, there weren't any space battles. With Rogue Leader, I found the AI lacking, the Hoth battle could have been better and I found it worse than the original for forcing you to rush through the levels rather than get the chance to enjoy them.

Obi Wan I was very disappointed with. Some enjoyed it but to me it was a poor and very rushed game. The Starfighter games are ok, but not the type to really draw you in and the PC games (i.e X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, etc) were great, but too complicated to get into with all the controls. Plus if you were in a TIE Fighter, you stood next to no chance of survival.

From what I've seen of both KOTOR and Galaxies so far, they are looking very impressive. The light saber battles look more like they are down to skillful controlling rather than random button hammering.
As Galactic Battlegrounds, I like strategy games so this suits me down to the ground - especially with the bonus that I enjoyed the Age Of Empires 2 game. :-) This game still has a couple of things I'd change, but its a really good game. :-)

Anyway, this is my opinion as far as Star Wars games go, no doubt plenty will say the opposite to me. ;-)

Actually I could beleive you wrote that, it's a crap review and some of the spelling would never get through a magazine quality check.

I'm sorry but if that post does not scream ADVERT at everyone then I don't know what does. That reads like the cheesy rubbish you get on the back of game boxes, as they desperatly try to sell you the product. I don't beleive you, no one would ever post something like that, that text was written to advertise the game, like the reviews in the SR mag are, not to actually inform people about it.

As for me going around saying everyones reviews are crap, where the hell did you get that from? Give a link to two of them, I dare you.

To Whitestripes

In an earlier message you wrote that I copied my message about starfighter from a mag.

Well I didn't and I think you have a problem.

I have looked at the chat rooms and in every one you are moaning about peoples views and saying things are crap.

Don't judge people who have the brains to right about games and put what they think down on paper (so to speak).

If you know so much about games why don't you write a chat message telling us why Starfighter is crap.

If not then shut you pie hole and keep your opinions to your self you ignorant bassa!
