Star Wars: Republic Commando

I'm a fan of First Person Shooters, I play them almost exclusively, And this game is one of the best. It is certainly the Best Star Wars game I've played. Heres Why, it is almost entirely unrelated to the original Star Wars Films (Not the "Jumped up firework display of a toy advert" that was phantom menace) there is one light-sabre joke, and thats very easy to miss, there is also the familiar look of the stormtroopers. Aside from that, there are only wookies to remind you this is Star Wars. It is essentially a FPS, there are squad commands (Form Up, Search and Destroy style commands) although most people will never use them. THere are also specific commands (Sniper, Anti-Armor, Grenade Position) these are easy to use without being too invasive. These are there if you want to use them, but you can play the entire game just letting the squad do their own thing. The Graphics and atmosphere are Extremely good. Particularly in an abandoned Ship, The Foley and the Graphics combine to make a great atmosphere for the game. Finally a word about the squad, the dialogue is enjoyably pointless, they manage to inject some humour into the whole affair.

So On the whole, in one word:

SUPERB

This game was one of my favorites when I was just a teen. Last week I redownloaded it just for nostalgia. After 12 years I loved it again. The story and the characters are really pulling you to the game. We see how the clones live and die from their own perspective. I always believed star wars is not only lightsabers and Jedi and this game makes us feel that how big "a galaxy far far away" can be! We see the battles we in the movies in a behind the curtain look. The gameplay is quite fluent. You feel as if you really are underfire and you are battling a huge number of enemies while trusting your skills and your brothers. As I have said, these "brothers" are really nice characters. They are clones still each have a unique personality and traits. Although the game has violant sides, actually the narrative is fantastically funny.

I wish the modern games were also aiming for the players joy instead of ingame product selling... I storngly recommend it to all Star Wars fans and FPS lovers

Star Wars: Republic Commando is the best game I have ever played and continues to be so. The multi-player online never gets boring and I play it every day. Single player is just as good because it is suspenseful and really gets the effect of what happened. It really lays out a republic commando's life. I hope they make a second one that will be better than the first. I hope they make the second one so that who can connect with other players and become a squad of your own with one of you being a squad leader and so on. I really hope that somebody follows me up on this and agrees with me. I give this a ten because i will never play a game this fun. i give it 3 thumbs up! Thanks for listening

This game has got to be one of the best FPS games--on PS2 and Xbox. It combines characteristics of Metroid Prime by the way you see through the helmet, Halo by the way of having rechargeable shields, and the Rainbow Six games by the way you control your squad. Also, the controls for your squad are easy, and at times you'll be more than proud to have them with you because they actually help you during a firefight. Another great thing about the game is the amazing graphics, and something that may be small but i still like: there's an automatic 'windshield wiper' thing on your helmet face-shield when rain drops cloud your vision or when you get up close and slice an enemy with your vibroblade (the melee attack)--causing blood to spurt up unto your mask. Lastly, not only are the weapons great, but the environments are, too, and the enemies are as well. Moreover, the personalities (mostly comical) of your squad members make you feel really into it, and may causer a laugh or two.

I DEFINITELY recommend this game, to any FPS-lover. It truly is a more darker and militaristic take from other Star Wars games, making it all the better.

You wanna know addicting play this, more violent than halo but still very addicting. You play as commando 38(Boss), with 62(Scorch), 42(Fixer), and 07(Sev). Fighting behind scenes of the movie, except for one chapter. You play with a arsenal of weapons, with also cool turrets to grapple onto, this was made by a man that retired the marine core. So you get many tactics, and many things that you can't do on other commando games. You also get good humor from your teammates, and fight crazy hard enemies.

You have to play this, SO addicting. Only ten bucks, it also comes with a program you can find in the files that you can do it(don't drag it to the desktop). It's for modding, and you can find mods on moddb and share your creation of it, with a account. Enjoy.
