Customer Ratings:

Please guys you all need to actually play the game through before you review. You must look at all aspects of this solid fighter. This is game is great with stunning graphics and great gameplay and in depth missions. The added two player is also great (with many modes of play). This is a true XBOX game and should/will be a flagship game. So if you want a XBOX but can't decide on a game to go with it go with this or DOA3.

The graphics are great, but they do show that they are ported and not developed for the X-Box. The sound is outstanding, the gameplay is GREAT, and that Mission 14, I could thrown that disk if it had taken me any longer to get through it. I swear, that thing was impossible. I still cannot say exactly how I beat it, but I did . What a great game to go along with some of the great games on PC, such as Tie Fighter and X-Wing Alliance.

Now, on to Obi-Wan!

Honest reviews on Star Wars Starfighter Special Edition

I was always a huge Wing Commander fan. I watched as the graphics moved from blocky pixels to slightly less blocky shapes, to ships that you could actually see emblems on. This latest Star Wars space combat is the best I've seen yet!

This Special Edition starts with the regular Starfighter title (available on other platforms) and adds in extra levels and tons of multiplayer features!

To start with, there are three different characters you play, each in his or her own style of ship. Rhys is a Nabooian cadet with a little quick fighter, with limited torpedoes. Vana is a mercenary her ship can tag enemies and then blast them. Nym is the alien, and he's got bombs on his, great for blasting capital ships.

You take these three different ships on a series of missions, both on planet and in space. You dodge through asteroid belts, zip along narrow canyons, defend bases and blow apart the bases of your enemies. There's tons of fun dogfighting, trying to blow up ships both large and small. The missions make sense, and your wingmen obey commands with reasonable AI.

The graphics are beautiful! There are rivers snaking through green valleys. Desolate planets with mining operations. Giant asteroid fields that you have to dodge through. The ships each look and act differently, but are generally similar enough that it's not a huge chore to switch amongst them as you go through missions.

Even after you finish the missions, the multi-play is immensely fun. Grab some friends and play one of their various game types they have available. Just wait until broadband comes!

So the game has everything it needs, good graphics, a reasonable story and the traditional lucas sounds and music. All this should make for a Star Wars flight fest yet oddly it doesn't. Perhaps it is the pacing of the game, the control system or the lack of familiarity with the characters that does it, but playing the game feels more like something you have to do than something you really want to. Of course you will continue playing the game in the hope that things get better later in the game.

Better than the PS2 versions certainly, but while this is a must for Star Wars fans, it is probably better rented for everyone else.

Lets hope that Jedi Starfighter is better!
