STAR WARS™ Republic Commando™

Classic star wars game, played it a bit many years ago and finished it recently, would recommend to star wars fans who have their heads screwed on. Throughout my first playthrough I haven't had any bugs or glitches.

My understanding is Star Wars: Republic Commando was a LucasArts foray into an Xbox market already primed by Halos 1 & 2 for oo-rah gritty science-fiction FPS action. It definitely feels like the kind of Xbox game your cousin was playing in the mid 00s. Behind-the-scenes footage unlocked at the end even shows the animation team getting a little on-site training by a former spec-ops veteran on how to properly hold a weapon, breach a door and enter a room. Great stuff! It brings a welcome note of authenticity, adding a little army edge to the world of the Clone Troopers. The tactical element is good fun too, breaking up the story and action in what might've otherwise been a stodgy Prequel-flavoured FPS in the style of Star Wars: Dark Forces. It's also done in such a way that forces you to rely on your team and, genuinely, form a bond with the characters. There are no Jedi here to bail you out. In fact there's barely a lightsaber in sight, except as an easter egg that triggers a line of chronologically confusing reference dialogue. Personally I slept on Republic Commando in high school, but had fond memories of the POV ectogenic birth sequence on Kamino. Close to 40 now this game was a joy to revisit and finally finish off. Being LucasArts it's full of creative flare and little details that make it a uniquely immersive Star Wars experience. Temuera Morrison gives it his gruffest and the John Williams Droid March blasts out at all the right moments. The only major bummer is that Morrison didn't voice all the members of Delta Squad himself, which would have been both lore accurate and very funny. That, and an abrupt ending. You get the feeling Master Yoda received the call that the money had run out, so both Delta Squad and the game devs get pulled right at the point you're expecting to have a show down with a certain bronchial bad-guy. The upside is RC-1138 and his comrades Scorch, Fixer and Sev ultimately survive both the events of Republic Commando and the eventual Disney buy-out, and now exist as canonical characters in the Star Wars Filoniverse. Their enduring appeal proving, once again, that the Clones were not only the MVPs of the Clone Wars, but the real heroes of the Prequel Trilogy.
