Long time ago in a galaxy far far away there is a lot of life time to be wasted playing Star Wars games. There are as many Star Wars games as there are stars in the night sky. If you love SW universe there are many games you can try out, from RTS, RPG, FPS, MMO to Lego games. You can be a Light Sabre wielding Jedi or some alien looking bounty hunter, the choice is yours. It might be an interesting universe but it also brings a lot of cash for the owners, SW franchise is now owned by Disney, so we can expect many more SW products on the market. Today's topic is The Best Star Wars games so here we go.
Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
One of my favorite SW games is this FPS that can also be played form 3rd person perspective once you equip your Light Sabre and start using force powers. While playing the single player part of the game you can communicate with many popular SW characters including Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn.
Old Republic
MMO that is still going strong and can be played for a long long time. Start playing Old Republic for free and get locked for a month at least. This game has everything any SW fan can hope for. Interesting stories for 8 different classes, multiple expansions, space battles, crafting, raiding with groups of people. Best SW MMO ever, not that there were many, but this one is worth your time for sure.
Empire at War
Star Wars in one of the better forms released. This game had something different going for the players, you could play on the ground with your forces, you could fight in space battles, and you could give orders on big space battle map and conquer planets where you can build your massive space fleets or ground assault troops. Expansion introduced a new faction that made this game even more fun.
Galactic Battlegrounds
How many people forgot about this game I wonder. This is essentially Age of Empires clone placed in Star Wars universe, you could chose between 6 completely different factions. And also you could recruit all the popular movie characters that were like hero units that were very strong and with some support could win battles. Great game if you are a fan of SW and Age of Empires.
Knights of The Old Republic
Story of this game took place 10k years before the main movies with good old jedi and sith battling it out. What was so special about this game is that deep story and SW mystery around your character. I don't want to spoil the story but it could easily be shocking as "Luke I am your father" line. Great RPG mechanics were the engine of this great story.
