On the surface it looks like just another Clone-orientated first-person shooter like the Battlefront games, but it is altogether different to what you might expect from a game in this genre. Republic Commando is one of those games that you have to play to truly understand. Until then, Scottish Obi-Wan saying “DUH YUH UNDERSTAHND MAH LANGUAGE” will haunt my every waking thought. But theres something about the game still… maybe I’ll give it another chance. Unfortunately, he doesn’t drop his Scottish accent, and so Obi-Wan goes through this entire game sounding like a Scotsman with a cold pretending to be Obi-Wan. They tried to get Ewan McGregor to play Obi-Wan in this game and I presume he said no, so they got another Scottish actor to take his place. Not to mention the graphics are terrible, and the game crashes more times than I could count. It has terrible controls, terrible gameplay, terrible dialogue and terrible voice acting. The main reason why this is even on the list at all is that I used to have great fun with it as a kid, and for the life of me I can’t understand why. If only you had been in development for another 2 years. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the list, and coming in at number 10: 10 – Obi Wan Noticeable absences will be The Force Unleashed II, Rogue Squadron and all the early Jedi Knight/Dark Forces games. Now bear in mind, I’m only ranking the games that I have actually played here, and although I have played a lot of Star Wars games, I haven’t played them all.
Star Wars is one of the few movie franchises that is able to maintain excellent quality in both its films and its games (apart from a slight dip in the early 2000s…) so it comes as no surprise to most people who know Star Wars fans that just as many people like the video games as the movies, so it makes sense to do a list ranking those as well.
