STAR WARS™: Rebel Assault I + II

STAR WARS™: Rebel Assault I + Il . The game has a cool vibe of old 3D pixel games with wheezing sounds from the early 90s. Either I haven't figured out the controls or the game is really hard to control the ship in the first game. The second part contains very cool video scenes recorded with real people. . Controls: The first part seems to be controlled only by a joystick and I didn't understand how to play it. . In the second part, you can choose to play with a joystick, mouse or keyboard. O - menu Ctrl - fire Arows - aiming control

Never played Rebel Assault 1 before but I did play the PS2 version a long time ago. The graphics there were overhauled and were 3D unlike in this version. It was an interesting story honestly, very basic but serviceable. You can really tell that they worked really hard to create the illusion of playing a movie (some transitions from cutscenes to gameplay are almost seamless and the backgrounds in the game are really well done). Perfectly blending 2D backgrounds with the game looks amazing even today, especially the PS1 version. The music and sound design is on point. I can't believe I used to complete this as a kid with 0 dmg on my PS1.

though it is a old game i think its still worth it to take a dive into star wars eu

No. If a game could have the absolute worst controls ever, it is these two games. A Joystick might be better but I don't know how different a true Joystick is to a gamepad or Mouse and Keyboard. Beyond that, the only enjoyable section I got to experience was Rebel Assault 2's first mission. 2 is immediately a million times better than the first because you can actually play it with a mouse. It doesn't help that controlling the ship feels like you're trying to guide a dying balloon with your hand in a windstorm. There is so much annoying sway I was real close to shooting the mouse through my expensive monitor like it was the death star. There is enjoyment to be found in the second game and none in the first game. I'm not being paid to play these games so I am glad to be able to put them down and never return again to a galaxy far far away.

1993年発売ということを考えると、かなりすごい映像表現が見られる。 主観視点のコックピットや、サーモ表示など先進的な表現は今も色あせない。 ゲーム内容は苦しい。本当に苦しい。 ミレニアムファルコンっぽい宇宙船の当たり判定がデカすぎるし スピーダでジャングル飛ばされるし、撃ち合いパートは指が攣りそうになる。 でも当時やってたら夢中になってたかも、そう思わせる魅力はある。
