Star Wars: X-Wing Collector's Edition Reviews

The sound effects, the graphics, the atmosphere--all of it evokes images of your favorite space battles in the Star Wars movies. You get to start slow, and work your way up to the really tough missions--and you'll need the time to learn, trust me!

With the exception of Elite, the Star Wars games were the first space sims to feel like you were actually flying in a 3D environment, not playing a 2D arcade game (sorry Wing Commander fans). Add 2 fantastic Star Wars story lines (both well fleshed out in the respective strategy guides), a chance to sample the overall lackluster sequel, updated graphics, and win 95 funtionality for under $20, and you can't go wrong. Freespace fans, check out the originals, and pick up Alliance.

I've had this game for years and it continues to be one of my favorites. That being said, it is also incredibly frustrating. Essentially, you play a series of campaigns, each of which contains a dozen or so missions, and you must complete each mission before moving to the next in the campaign.However, there are some missions in this game that are simply ridiculous. In one mission, you'll find yourself flying with helpless wingmen while facing absolutely overwhelming odds and trying to protect a disabled craft while flying the fighter option least equipped for such a mission, and all that's before the Star Destoyer shows up. If rebel pilots were truly sent on missions this hopeless, they'd have all defected to the Empire. Luckily, once you complete a mission, you can play it again at any time, so when you find yourself hopelessly stuck on all... Read more |
