WTMG’s Leo Faria: “So this is why I actually respect the living hell out of Star Wars: Rebel Assault, despite being an admittedly limited and clunky game, even for 1993 standards. LucasArts was trying to do its own Star Wars cinematic masterpiece on consoles and computer, despite their monstrous limitations back in the day. It was the first time we could at least pretend we were inside an X-Wing in a somewhat realistic (for 1993, cmon) manner. It was also the reason wed get games like Shadows of the Empire and Rogue Squadron years down the line. You may not like (you surely wont), but you sure cant say its a black sheep in the franchises gaming history.”
