Star Wars: Classic Star Wars Games and TOR
MMORPG Community Manager Mike Bitton is on a quest to rekindle his love for Star Wars games in preparation for the release of Star Wars: The Old Republic. In today's column, Mike takes a look back at three classic Star Wars titles and talks a bit about each. See if your favorite Star Wars game made the list!
Rekindling my love for my favorite Star Wars games has reminded me why I enjoyed them as much as I did and in true grognard fashion also gave me some additional clarity as to why I find many modern games (especially Star Wars ones) unsatisfying. What it also did was get me thinking about some of the features or aspects of these games I'd have loved to see in The Old Republic. Let's keep in mind that this is purely a "wishful thinking" exercise and isn't about whether or not these are or aren't at all realistic for the game. Below I'll be sharing some of my favorite Star Wars games and what about them I'd have loved to see in The Old Republic and I hope you'll join me and share some of your own!
