Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was a fan of the first X-Wing game, and, immediately purchased this game upon its release in 1999.The inclusion of the Battle of Endor at the end was the selling point.Ever since, I have not needed another computer game!The other reviews have pretty much spoken for the game's plot and basic features, so I won't comment on those.This game, despite its age, is simply one of the best flight simulator type game out there!
If there is one way to describe this game, its detail!From the complicated story, of which you feel a part of, to the 3-D ships, to all the stuff that happens in the missions it is simply incredible!In the heat of a difficult mission, I have often lost myself in the game, only to shudder when returning to reality!
There are over 50 different family business and Rebel Alliance missions.In these you fly YT-1300 (Milinium Falcon type) freighters, Z-95s, X-wings, A-Wings, B-Wings and Y-wings.Compared with all past games, there is alot of function.You can dock with capital ships, carry containers, operate gun turrets on the freighters and fly through space stations.Space battles are replicated down to the smallest details - sunglare, blast shockwave, large debris, even ejected pilots!You have the ability to communicate with the pilots in your squadron, and there is a variety of "comm chatter" that you get from them!
I have beaten the game twice (it takes a long, long time).The final treat is that you get to fly the Milinium Falcon in the Battle of Endor (the big space battle in Return of the Jedi), complete with a VERY challenging run through the Death Star's interior!Strap on your flight helmets...
In addition to the missions, there is a "flight simulator" section where you can review past tour of duty missions as well as create your own missions!Here you can fly most of the starfighters (Rebel, Imperial, Pirate, Civilian, etc.) see elsewhere in the game.There is a third "Pilot Proving Grounds" section where you can fly Rebel starfighters through a series of mazes and obstacles while competing for the best time.In between Tours, there are some excellent cut scenes.You also earn awards in the Rebel missions and gather various "souviners" during your family missions.
This review has gotten way too long and no one is going to read it anyways, however, X-Wing Alliance is a supurb effort put out by Lucas Arts Entertainment and is well worth the purchase!
