Star Wars: Starfighter Special Edition Preview

Star Wars: Starfighter was looking mighty nice on the PS2, but the developers have never been shy about admitting that Starfighter was originally in development for the PC, and while a PC version will be out next year, gamers who have managed to get an Xbox won't have to wait that long with Star Wars: Starfighter Special Edition just over the horizon.

After a series of lackluster games set in the Star Wars universe, it looked like LucasArts was really pushing the franchise to new extremes and was seeing how low they could go with titles like Star Wars: Demolition and Jedi Power Battles. Things began to take a turn for the better with Star Wars: Starfighter for the PlayStation 2, and while the game wasn't as good as the classic X-Wing series for the PC, it was like traveling at hyper speed in the right direction. Additionally Starfighter provided early adopters of the PS2 -- at least those who managed to snag a unit -- with a game of some quality.
