Finished Shadows of the Empire yesterday. It's truly a game of its time (jetpacks!) and the control schemes suffer a lot from being a N64 first game. The last stage, Skyhook Battle, is a mess tho. Why did the devs think that having a never ending swarm of enemy fighters that easily kill you was a good "warm up" before the "actual" level?

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
