As polished and impressive as RS3 is, the new on-foot missions have their spectacular moments but generally feel rather tacked on and simplistic, and the auto-aim shooting and unsympathetic camera fails to satisfy. The continuing lack of subtlety in the aiming and control of the craft in the other levels also spoil things a bit (although we accept this may be down to the Cube's twitchy sticks). Read more
- Epic battles and new two player modes., Some wonderful graphics., It's proper Star Wars!
- Looks and feels too much like the previous games., The same old unintuitive control system and the disappointing on foot missions don't impress.

TNT Racers is your typical top-down racing game with weapons and power-ups, something we don’t see a lot of these days. It comes complete with some of the same modes, challenges, and options you’d expect from a Micro Machines game. It’s not Micro Machines , no, but it does offer a close enough experience for fans of that series. Read more
- Classy music; great controls; multiplayer is a blast
- Lackluster visuals; annoying A.I.; shallow single player experience

You will be to as soon as you get your hands in it. Now Rebel Strike has many flying Missions, but the new twist is the 3rd person action/adventure part. A lot of people I know who have this game seem to be comparing it to Rogue Squadron II. They claim the 3rd person part, while a good idea, doesn't seem to deliver. Read more

Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike is the sequel to Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader. Rogue Leader, originally released as a GameCube launch title, was the best Star Wars based flight game since Tie Fighter (PC). For Rebel Strike, that is quite a name to surpass, or even match. Rebel Strike, developed by Factor 5, features a variety of new missions, vehicles, and game modes. Some of these modes expand the gameplay, while others seem to bring it down. Read more

Way back before my N64 was relegated to the back of my games shelf, I was introduced to a game that would forever hold a special place in my heart: Rogue Squadron. Offering something new in the way of starship combat, namely arcade controls without a thick manual, Rogue was probably my single most rented game. The saga continued once I bought a GameCube: my very first game was Rogue Leader, the mighty successor to the Rogue Squadron throne. Read more

Despite the slight downfalls Rebel Strike still remains a fantastic games that many can't live up to both in gameplay and technology. Everything is bigger and better than its predecessor Rogue Leader from the TIE's to the environments. The third person parts do have their problems but nothing which can detract from the great game that Factor 5 have yet again delivered. Read more

The GCN launch title, Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader was the best Star Wars title that I had ever played when it was released in 2001. Not only was it one of the few exceptional launch titles (others included Pikmin, Super Monkey Ball & Super Smash Bros. Melee), but it greatly expanded the greatness of the first title from the N64. To this day Rogue Squadron II is one of the most gorgeous GCN titles. Read more

Star Wars games are often hit-or-miss; the Rogue Squadron series had been exceptional in its quality, but Rebel Strike finally succumbs to the license's curse. Developer Factor 5 proved their mastery of flight in the previous Rogue Squadron games; in this installment, they've demonstrated their ineptitude at most other styles, rebelling without cause from a proven formula.

Okay, so the new Star Wars movies fully and completely suck. Just let it go. Then run out and pick up Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike and re-live the better adventures of the first long-ago, far-away galactic trilogy. Read more
