Week-Ending Game Endings - 10.02.09 - Shadows of the Empire
October 2, 2009 | 4:54 PM PST
I like to try to keep the Week-Ending Game Endings somewhat relevant to what is coming out, but this week, I ran into a bit of a spot. See, next week's releases? It's kind of a bland list. There are some sports games, some Fallout DLC, sure, but not a lot to really work with.
But one thing stuck out to me: Star Wars: Clone Wars - Republic Heroes. So I decided to look back at one of my favorite Star Wars games, and one I hope LucasArts will bring to the Virtual Console at some point in the future, Shadows of the Empire.
For some reason, it seems like people didn't care much for Shadows of the Empire. Myself, I rather liked it; I not only got, played, and beat the game, but read the book, too. And while I know he's basically a substitute Han Solo, I liked Dash Rendar. I wonder if he'll ever show up again.
Then again, I don't follow most of the Star Wars comics, novels, etc. all that closely, so maybe he already has. Anyone know?
Have a great weekend, everybody!
