Star Wars Jedi Starfighter (Xbox, 2002)

I fist bought this game for an unusually low price, and I loved it. There are so many things to unlock, and plenty of multiplayer options. I especially liked the ability to replay old missions with new crafts that I'd previously unlocked. I also love the challenge of trying to find all of the hidden objectives. In short, this is a well-rounded game with solid physics and lots of stuff to do. Kept me entertained for a long time.

As far as ship to ship space combat games go, the Star Wars franchise has it pretty well sewn up. I've looked for another space fighter sim game on the original XBOX, but the closest I've found is that afterthought of a space combat system included in the Battlefront games... another Star Wars title. There's plenty of dogfighting games, air combat games, and shooters, but for space simulation combat on the Xbox this is the only title I've found.

As you can probably imagine, I was expecting the worst when I loaded this game up, but I was pleased to find my expectations were exceeded. Lucas' boys know how to make a good space sim game, and they've been setting all the standards in this genre since the DOS days. This title is more of the same from a long line of predecessors. The game is plot driven, with difficulty ranging from relatively simple standard mission objectives to red fury inducing impossible bonus objectives. There's plenty of rewards and goals to keep you coming back for more punishment on those too. Lucasarts has written the book on this type of game, and I am sure that's a literal truth.

In the end my only complaint is that I couldn't find Descent Freespace for the XBOX.

I decide to buy it because I own it once for playstation and is one of my favorites. The shipping was fast and I am very pleased with it.

This is a very good game for all star wars lovers. Lots of shot'em up action and very easy to play. Fun for all ages.
