Oh Matt, you shoulda come to me for this. The games are what I live for.
Alright, here we go (I'll try breaking this junk up for you).
PC Flight Sims:X-Wing
TIE Fighter
X-Wing Vs. TIE FIghter
X-Wing: Alliance
PC Strategy:Rebellion
Force Commander

Republic Commando (Soon to be Released)
PC Role Playing Games:Star Wars Galaxies MMORPG
Knights of the Old Republic
PC Miscellaneous:Yoda Stories (I think that's its name)

Rebel Assault I
Rebel Assault II
Console Exclusives:Obi-Wan (X-Box FPS)
Episode One Racer (N64 Racing Game)
Racer's Revenge? (I forget the name exactly and think it's a PS2 exclusive?)

Masters of Teras Kasai (Fighting PS2 I think)
Starfighter (PS2 Action/Flying like Rogue Squadron)
Jedi Starfighter (PS2 Action/Flying)
Shadows of the Empire (N64 Action/shooter/flight)
Rogue Squadron (N64... Better than PC version)
Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader (Gamecube)
Rogue Squadron 3: Rebel Strike (Gamecube)
Bounty Hunter (Gamecube and PS2)
Clone Wars (Gamecube and PS2)
OK, I tried to break that up some for you so it's easier to follow...
To me, these games are the MUST buys...
-X-Wing series (All of the Flight sims except X-Wing Vs. TIE are great games). Great games, but find the Win. 95 versions of the earlier games for them to work properly.
-ALL of the First Person Shooters... From Dark Forces to Jedi Academy, they're all great and they all have modding communities that have made free downloadable levels to play that many are superior to Lucasarts levels even. Dark Forces needs a Win 95 version to work properly so keep your eyes open for that. These are AWESOME games though (except Republic Commando which nobody has a clue about, but Academy's already getting great reviews).
-Bounty Hunter... I played the Gamecube version and it has been the best game I've played this year.
-ROgue Squadron series... They're great, though I prefer them on console. I only got the PC version to get screen captures of a rebel hovertank that I need for customizing purposes. They're awesome though.
-Force COmmander... I sometimes feel alone here, but this game is GREAT for a strategy game. I'd suggest getting Galactic Battlegrounds too because it has its merits, but for realism, 3-D graphics, and true "Strategy" GB sucks. Force Commander was an all-new game with a complete storyline that's quite compelling and tied together with large cinematic cutscenes. Galactic Battlegrounds is an old strategy game engine using Star Wars characters in place of the AOE engine characters. TO me it was a disappointment when the rest of the strategy gaming world is advancing to 3-D terrain maps and more personalized combat for realistic strategy.
Basically I think Galactic Battlegrounds sucks honestly, and is an old game on an old (but proven) engine. Force Commander was new, interesting, complex, and visually entertaining on top of being a well done game.
The rest of the games, for the most part, I have played... On that list actually I've only NOT played the fighting game and the latter 2 racing games (I have the original racer on N64 though, and it's less than interesting personally).
If you wanna talk games sometime you're free Matt, look me up!
