I’ve got a few weeks of dead time coming up (vacation!), and I was thinking about getting into some of the more recent SW video games. I’ve studiously avoided purchasing or playing them, knowing that if I did so, my schoolwork would suffer immensely, if not cease entirely.

Back in the day, I played quite a bit of Rebel Assault, TIE Fighter (to a lesser extent, X-Wing), and Dark Forces. I played all the arcade games and the NES/SNES series. (Oh yes: Star Wars Chess. Love it. Still have it.) I did try Battlegrounds; I don’t think I’m so good at that kind of game.

I’ve read that KotOR is the best, but I’m more of an OT purist, so I’m not sure that I’d be as interested in something set outside the trilogy. But I’d be willing to take a shot with it if people think it’s worth the time.

Any feedback would be helpful and welcome–PMs are on, by the way.
