I have in the past played many flying games. and i have always wondered why on consoles such as the n64 and playstations these games never contain a multiplayer option. In my mind games such as Rogue Squadron which are already top class games would become unbeatable if they contained a multiplayer, imagine being able to have dog fights wif ur mates in air craft of your choice. For me mulitplayers are not just an extra part of the game, in some cases they can be better than the missions. So i dont see why flying games dont have this option.

Stop acting like some newbie greeter....now that's my reason why rogue squadron couldn't have the multiplayer because also lucasarts had probably needed to release it early.

They base the game on it's story line and single player only but i'd love a co-op mode on Rogue Squadron but with limitations with framerate problems it's harder to do that.
