I think I'd buy fewer games if not for Star Wars, even though they haven't been that great lately. Knights of the Old Republic is my current favorite, at least until Rebel Strike comes out.
I'd love to see the good PC games resurrected on XBOX with modern graphics:
Dark Forces
Jedi Knight
X-Wing
TIE Fighter
X-wing Alliance
and to a much lesser extent, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter.
I also enjoyed everything on the N64, particularly Shadows of the Empire and Rogue Squadron. Rogue Leader is nice too, of course.
Jedi Outcast? Technically, great. From a game design point of view? A pile of ass. I hope that Jedi Academy is better. I'm getting it regardless, like I did with Teras Kasi, Clone Wars, Jedi Power Battles, Demolition, and so many others. What a sucker I am! At least I didn't get sucked into SW Galaxies. The terrible beta was enough for me.
P.S. VCS Empire Strikes Back is much more playable with a rapidfire plug!
