Indeed you are powerful, as the emperor has forseen. All truth to this incredibly amazing game! Ok, to level with you, while the game may seem 'short' the levels are chock full of objectives and stuff to do. The game also boasts 5 secret unlockable ships, as well as several other ships that may be played in certain levels. Along with the ships comes 5 secret levels, and other extras too. Obviously, the graphics are Buy this game, now. If you own Super Smash Bros Melee, this is definatly the next game to get!

One of the first games out of the gate for the GCN, and easily a must-have. The graphics, the unparalled gameplay enhanced from the N64 version, but despite the only 10 regular missions, there is still much to do, and 5 missions to unlock. One thing this game brings is its connection to the movies. Lucasarts has brought the movie experience to the GCN in a way not ever seen before. Get this game, I encourage you, "The Force is strong in this one."
Gamecube at it's best!

This game is one of GC's best! If you're a Star Wars fan or a nonfan you'll love this. First of all this is probably graphically the best game for ANY system. There so crisp and realistic. The game itself is amazing. There are 12 lvs and bonus levels too. You may think that is short but the levels are hard! There are 5 different space vehicles(A wing B wing Y wing X wing and snowspeeder) The missions come strate from the origional 3 Star Wars movies.level 1: Death Star attack: The first part of the level is destroying those tall towers. The second part of the first level destroy the ties third destroy the Death Star!!!!!!! That's just a little sample of the way the levels work. The music is just GREAT! To unlock levels here's what you do...get points. To get points do special challenges. Oh I almost forgot:) You play as Luke the first part of the game and then Wedge. There are many "pass codes": cheats. Try to unlock all the special features. One letdown is no multiplayer...BUT whocares. This game's amazing gameplay more than makes up for it. And another one is is that it's hard! Who doesn't like a challenge. Now the special FX. They're great! It looks great when something explodes. The lasers look awesome! The noises sound the same as the actual movies! Oh and just because this is rated T doesn't mean it's that bad! There's no blood! This game will definetly keep your fingers moving!
Fun to play but hard to beat

Rogue Leader has great graphics, but it is extremely difficult to get past the first level. It's probably best for people with lots of experience and a lot of patience. This game will take quite some time to beat.
This game rocks!!!

When I forst saw this game I thought it would be a drag like the one that was on N64 but when I turned on the power, I had to reconsider. The graphics are GREAT! This game has basicly every thing you would want in a game. It has action, sound, graphics, and better stuff then the one on N64 had. if one of you guys (or girls) out there are getting a GameCube, let this be your first game.Happy Gaming
IF ONLY YOU KNEW THE POWER OF THIS GAME...

This game now rates as the top Star Wars game of all time in my opinion. I found it to provide a greater challenge than its pretecessor for N64. The ability to switch craft in the middle of a level is also great for getting the job done. Now, almost every ship you saw in the movies is at your disposal. You have to have this game if you don't already. For if you don't forever will it dominate your destiny.
The Best Star Wars Title to Date

If you're a fan of Star Wars, you've got to get this game. This was one of the main reasons I got a GameCube. It's fantastic! The gameplay is flawless, the graphics are perfect and the missions are challenging. This is the best Star Wars game I've played. This is what the GameCube was made for!
Best Star Wars game ever (until Star Wars Galaxies that is)

I first powered this game up when my co-workers came over to my house after dining at [a restaurant] in Williamsburg, NY.
It had been about a week or so, and frankly I didn't want to pop it in yet because I wanted to make sure that I could spend adequate time with it. With 4 games in tow, I figured, let me play those other 3 first, then give Rogue Leader the time it requires.
When my co-workers came over, the first game they all wanted to see was Rogue Leader. There has been so much hype surrounding this game that everyone was interested in seeing if it actually could even come close to living up to that hype.
Let me just say this. Based on the unbelievable fluidity of the Death Star level, as well as the Ison Corridor, there are 7 new Gamecube owners on the market today. I'm currently on the Hoth Level, and I'm still speechless. The pictures don't compare to the reality of this game.
The sound alone is beyond reproach, and when you add that to the game running at a *very* noticeably smooth 60 frames per second, you get an experience that goes down as mind boggling.
I've started 3 games just so that I could play and replay the death star sequence over and over again. And I've got another 1 on Hoth. The bumpmapping, dynamic lighting, particle engine, textures, anti aliasing (yes, it does exist), and geometry in this game truly scare me. If this is what Factor 5 has been able to do with a first gen title (with less than a year to develop and get to stores no less), then I truly cannot wait to see their next endeavor.
Truly gorgeous game

This game is without a doubt the best of the GameCube offerings this season. If you have a GameCube, and you don't have this game, you don't really have a GameCube. It looks like the movie, only better, because you're in it. Graphics, sound, gameplay: all awesome.
Downside: It's hard, and requires patience. Fortunately, it's so good-looking that I don't mind playing the same missions over and over again to improve my skills.
Downside: Your computer-controlled wingmen are total idiots, and you don't have a lot of control over them like there was in PC-based games like X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter.
Downside: If you enjoyed the nitty gritty space flight simulation of PC-based games, you'll miss it here. Controls are dramatically simplified to fit the GC controller buttons. It all works fine, of course, but you can't do as much. Also, the targeting computer isn't as useful.
All in all, though, the game is a blast to play, and I recommend it highly.
Words cannot describe the shear beauty of this game!!

This game was designed to blow everything away and is just incredible. The graphics, sound and play is movie-like. I couldn't believe how real everything appeared and how smooth the action was. More games like this, please!!!!!! The levels are very challenging and I still haven't seen them all. Plenty of secrets if you can find them. Gameplay is straightforward yet really puts your skills to the test. The closest we will probably ever come to living the Star Wars universe. A real treat and worth every penny!!
