Product Description:
Star Wars Republic Commando is a squad-based first-person shooter that lets you explore the elite world of the Star Wars military. Leading a 3-man squad of Republic Commandos, your missions take you deep behind enemy lines on over 14 intense and challenging levels through three different campaigns where you will face more than ten brutal enemies. You'll have more than a dozen deadly weapons at your disposal, but none more lethal than your squad. What makes the squad in Star Wars Republic Commando so unique is the game's innovative 'One Touch Squad Control' system that allows you to engage your squad with just one button. Multi-player capabilities including deathmatch, team deathmatch and capture the flag. Play with up to 16 players online via out of the box Internet play on PC. ESRB Rated T for Teen

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An oldie but a very gun Star Wars FPS!
I felt myself enjoying Republic Commando a lot more than Battlefront 2 mainly because of the smoother interface, weapon pickup ability, and because it wasn't modeled after a multi-player conquest game or capture the flag. Even the Jedi heros didn't make BF2 a more enjoyable experience. The weapons are more interesting, especially the different grenades the commandos can use. Republic Commando is essentially Rainbow Six Vegas or Call of Duty 4 set in the Star Wars Universe, except you can jump and use a melee weapon. The graphics and music are very appealing, even for a game that is 3+ years old. The action is scripted and a lot of the levels are frustrating wherever there is a major choke point. The Super Battle Droids are extremely tough to destroy without the right weapons. A "headshot" using the sniper attachment doesn't take them out quickly enough. It's bad enough when you encounter a lone Super Battle Droid, but when 5-10 start to gang up on you along with a complement of normal Battle Droids it starts to get hairy. The worst part? (Yes, there is something even worse than that...) The enemy respawns in unlimited numbers if you stay in one spot. If your teammate(s) die in an area, you cannot plow ahead and clear the enemies, then come back to revive them. When you walk back, the same enemies respawn and the whole process repeats. I am not sure how the Republic and Empire ever won any battles but it isn't surprising the casualties were so high. Their weapons and armor sucked the big one. If they re-developed their blasters to kill droids with 1 shot, it'd make life a lot easier. I often wished the Commandos would use lightsabers and just slash through the enemies.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - One of the Best Star Wars Games
I got this game for my birthday, and it works perfectly on my computer, which is a Windows XP. It's like Halo, except set in the Star Wars universe. You are Delta 38, an elite clone trooper that commands a squad of three other clones nicknamed Sev, Scorch, and Fixer. You will run across many weapons and enemies throughout the game, fighting two different factions on three different planets. It's worthwhile to buy it, even though it's short. So get it, now!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Amazing Game!
A great game! So fun! Although it does not work on my really nice gaming computer because it does not work with Nvidia Geforce 8800 graphic cards. But it works on my laptop just fine!
