What is your fav Star Wars video game? The top of my list goes:

1. Battlefront
2. Flight of the Falcon
3. Bounty Hunter
4. Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast

Some may find the old SNES games to still be the best, and I liked
those, but I like those listed above better.
Tell the board about yours :)

What was that little game where you ran around as Luke and was pretty much just a Star Wars version of Chip's Challenge? That game was wicked... :)

Oh, and indeed Super Star Wars and Super The Empire Strikes Back were awesome.

TIE Fighter. The fact that it's not even in your list tells me you should be burned at the stake.

TIE Fighter. The fact they never applied the formula to a better engine makes me cry every time I play FS2.

TIE fighter.

Barring a couple missions that were just "Okay you're in the middle of death...here's your slug boat!" The game was the best damn SW flight sim experience I had.

Second comes the Jedi Knight series, which I loved to just jump twirl and go apeshit with a lightsaber.

They should be ashamed of themselves. Who knows, Lucasarts might give it another shot, they did remake X-Wing and TIE Fighter with the graphical improvements from X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, after all. Not the most difficult thing in the world, but it was a quantum leap improvement.

Or they'll make a new space sim shooter based on ROTS. ARC 170s, those as-yet-un-named new "Jedi" starfighters ...

X-Wing:Alliance was very fine but I doubt they'll make another one like that. Probably another Rogue Squadron clone which they can also sell on the game consoles

X-Wing vs Tie Fighter (never having owned XW or TF)
X-Wing Alliance
Dark Forces II

Yep, all older games simply because I believe that they got it right, if they remade DFII with the outcast/academy engines (yes, I know there are mods) then I'd be over the moon.

But can I get my old XW:A discs to work on my laptop? Can I bollocks.

Tie Fighter, and that really old "The Empire Strikes Back" game that was very much a clone of Starglider.

TIE Fighter, followed by Alliance, followed by Jedi Knight.

Jedi Knight Outcast (PC)
Jedi Power Battles (DC)
Rouge Squadron: Rogue Leader (GC)


Those to me are the best. Yes they are newer, but I hated most of the older games. These here capture the esence to me. Scale, power and a good rush. JPB laggs a little bit mainly on Tatooine, but other than that it's damn good game.

Yoda Stories, IIRC.

TIE Fighter
Rogue Squadron(Both of them)

To be honest I always wanted to try out SW:Rebellion.
The idea of a SW strategy game set during the OT is intrigueing (sp?).

1.) KOTOR
2.) Battlefront
3.) TIE Fighter (TIE fighter is at 3 less because of Battlefront's superiority and more due to the fact that I haven't been able to play it in years so my memories are dim, yet also surprisingly warm and fuzzy).

Favorites:

X-Wing: Alliance
TIE Fighter
Battlefront

Others I enjoy:

Clone Wars (I like the way they copied the 'fighter tank' in Battlefront, although it is far more nimble in this game.)
Jedi Outcast
Rouge Squadron II and III

Really, in the pantheon of Star Wars games, maybe of all movie liscense video games, there's TIE Fighter and then there's everything else.

KotOR, TIE Fighter and Jedi Knight (ie Dark Forces 2).
