This is an excellent game. I bought it and was not at all unsatisfied. The graphics and realistic voices will light up your childs face. An excellent buy a $ 50.00

You don't have to be a hardcore starwars fan to like R.S.

This game is challenging. You defenetly won't beat it in a day. If you you're a real Star Wars fan and can't afford Gamecube, You'll get this game.

I just love blasting TIE'S....

LucasArts has really outdone itself with this great N64 game. After Shadows of the Empire was released, it quickly became obvious that the best level in the game was the first level, where you are flying a Rebel Airspeeder during the Battle of Hoth. LA decided to make a whole game using a similar concept, and Rogue Squadron was born. You play as Luke Skywalker, leader of Rogue Squadron, a group of elite rebel pilots who roam the galaxy, making life difficult for the Empire and its minions. You play through 16 basic missions, which together form a loose plot chronicling the adventures of Rogue Squadron during the time between the destruction of the first Death Star and The Empire Strikes Back. The missions range from simple search-and-destroy missions, to escorting supply trains, to freeing rebel soldiers from Imperial prison facilities. Along the way, you must learn to handle a variety of rebel craft, from the X-Wing to the Airspeeder. Each craft has its own strengths and weaknesses, plus each craft has a special weapon, which means that you are required to use each craft on certain missions. After you complete each mission, you may be awarded a bronze, silver, or gold medal based on your performance. After completing a mission, you can move on to the next one, or else go back and try again to get a better score. The game gives you a score summary after each mission, so you know right away which areaas you need to improve upon to get the gold.

The look and feel of the game is excellent. The graphics are superb, and the Expansion Pak boosts them to cinematic levels. The sound is also excellent for a non-CD game, although the chatter from your squadron mates does get a little repetitive. The game is contained within a 3D environment, giving the game a flight simulator-like feel. The controls are pretty easy to get used to, though this DOES take a little practice. Fortunately, the first couple of missions are pretty easy, so you get a good chance to get familiar with the controls. The controls are the same for each ship, so you don't have to switch back and forth.

As stated before, the first couple of missions are pretty simple and easy. But, starting with about the fourth mission, they start to get REALLY tough, with multitudes of TIE fighters, missile turrets, and gun emplacements all doing their best to shoot you down. Expect to die many times before mastering each mission. Getting the gold medal on all 16 missions will definitely take a while.

The game has a lot of nice bonus features as well. As you complete missions and earn higher medals, three bonus missions will appear, plus you will gain access to new ships, including the Millenium Falcon and a captured Imperial TIE Interceptor. There is also a passcode screen, allowing you to enter codes to unlock all sorts of interesting options, including a fourth bonus level and the Naboo Starfighter. There is even a code to allow you to fly a Buick sedan against the Empire! The codes themselves are pretty easy to get. There are several sites on the Internet that have them.

It's easy to get immersed in the 3D environment of this game. Many's the time I've found myself leaning over to the left or right as I put my X-Wing through a tight turn. For those who like flight simulator-type games, I would say that this is the best FS game on the N64. It's a bit dated now, what with the impending release of Rogue Squadron II for the GameCube, but for those N64 fans out there, this one is a must-have.

GREAT GAME!!!

I know what you want to hear first What are the good part of the games and what are the con's first let do the goods

Goods: Gameplay is great, you get to be Luke Skywalker and take on the Impeier, you get to take down; Tieds, AT-ATs, AT-STs, AT-PTs, Turrents, and other stuff that is fun taking down. It as a great story line, (o yeah if you want to her a great story don't skip through the cut sceens). You have wing men that, finally helps you and talks to you. The AT-ATs and AT-STs finally monve not like Shodows of the empire There is alot more good thing about this game like the sound graphics but i only get to describe this game in 1000 words so lets move on.

The Cons: Some of the explosians are'ent that great Some times you wish that you were on the dark side Some of the levels from the movie don't look like the one in the movies, but all and all it isa great game.

If you are a starwars fan don't even think of saying "i'll look around" or "NA"...

But if you are'nt a huge star wars fan still get it, cause it is a great game with out being star wars fan.

But ...

I hade thisgame when it came out and that was about 2 years ago and i still love it sso if you want a game that will intreste you for a while get it o yeh for got to tell ya this game is preety hard but not to hard but if you want it harder enter ACE at the password screen it will make it harder. Well this is Rue signing off see ya.

excellent game

This is a superb game all around. If you love star wars you will get into this game. There are about 15 levels and some have excellent themes and graphics. Much better than the Empire Strikes back game.

ONE HECK OF A GAME!!!

Rouge Sqadron is the best game out there! When this review was written there were 107 reviews wriiten on it already. about 100 of them were good reviews! And this is just another one.

graphics:9,10 It's kind of an old game.(I think it was made in 1998. it's still awesome though.)

fun:20,10 Oh no! That was a typo! that number needs to be higher!

replay value:12,10 I love playing the same missons over again! It's how i'm only on the fifth misson and at the third rank. Replay the missons to get a higher score.

Like I said in the title, it's One Heck Of A Game!!

Use the force Luke! From a 11-year old

I love the game, but yes it is to dark at times, like the 4th level. I don't really care about being Luke most of the game. I think that the Death Star run should be a really hard but its not... It's a good game to get!*_*
