My Star Wars geekdom is well documented here on The Movie Blog. So my interest in this article on UGO should come as no surprise to anyone:
December 2004 saw the latest release in a long line of Star Wars related video games. As a sequel to one of 2003’s top role playing games, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords has made a lot of Xbox owners and RPG fans very happy. In honor of KOTOR II’s release and in anticipation of May’s Revenge of the Sith movie event, we take a look at the long history of interactive Star Wars entertainment, complete with all of its highs and lows.
This is a really fun article. It breaks the games down into The Golden Age (1980-1990), The Silver Age (1991-1996), The Gaming Renaissance? (1996 – 2000), and the Modern Age (2001-today). Go give it a read and enjoy the nostalgia.
