Replay – Shadows Of The Empire
Dozens of Star Wars titles have been released since the 1980s, and they've run the gamut from excellent (Knights of the Old Republic) to downright awful (Masters of Teras Kasi). Shadows of the Empire was released near the beginning of the Nintendo 64's life cycle, and it falls somewhere in between.
The opening mission on Hoth is great, and its popularity spawned the excellent Rogue Squadron games. However, its on-foot missions weren't quite as universally loved. Watch below as we revisit this middle-of-the-road Star Wars title.
