Favorite old-school star wars game? — Page 3

Yeah, Mysteries of the Sith, it was pretty good at the time it came out. It is easy for me to forget that one ever existed. Pretty decent sized expansion pack if I remember right. It was cool because you didn't have to install the first game, it worked on its own but just wanted you to insert disc one of Jedi Knight to make sure you really own

That pinball game was a lot of fun. I was a great shot at hitting the Death Star.

"My favorite game ever was Dark Forces."

DF was extremely cool. It was very dark subject matter, and had incredible puzzles to figure out. Fun stuff.

"about a year ago I bought the collector's cd-rom version from ebay"

I played X-Wing allllll the time. On every level, I would stay and take out every single tie-fighter , and when all the waves were exhausted, I would take out the Star Destroyer. And this was without invulnerability or unlimited weapons. I was that good (and probably still am. )

Tie Fighter was okay, but just not quite the same. One thing I thought was funny was the tractor beam on the super-duper tie fighter. It was a pain in the butt to lock on, so I always turned it off and diverted power to weapons and speed. MUCH more effective!

BTW, just thought I'd add....I have a stand-up coin-op console game: Karate Champ. Anyone remember that one? "Half-Point!....Full-Point!" http://images.webmagic.com/klov.com/screens/K/yKarate_Champ_-_Player_Vs_Player.png

You know what? I've had it for few years at home!!
After my father did the website for a guy who was renting pinballs, that guy has lent us this pinball for a long time. Unfortunately, one day, the ball launcher (which was not manual, just a button) has burned, and we were force to give it back to the guy...
Anyway, I've played several times this pinball, and have very very good memories of it. Thanks to remember it to me!

I have all the old SNES games on my PC, as well as the Atari ones. The Empire Strikes Back and Return Of the Jedi were pretty fun back in the day - still fun from a pure memories perspective.

I finished both Tie Fighter and X-Wing recently. I would have to say those are the best Star Wars games.

Yeah, I remember the old nes ones, I owned both. I still do actually. I loved Empire Strikes Back, the snowspeeder part was really fun. I never beat either one even though I spent hours at them. They would take so long to get to the further levels and by that time I would be getting tired of them. I escaped the Death Star, but died in the Tie Fighter Persuit. In Empire the furthest I made it was dagobah.

i have to agree with Adamwan here and say Jedi Knight II : outkast, was the best one i've played so far. i would think about that game non-stop some times while i was at school.
thank the maker
