This game sucked. I remember buying it since it was the only JRPG'ish type of game on the 3DO. Since my brother and I split the $700.00+ pricetag of the 3DO, I guess we had to justify the purchase, even if it meant crappy games.

Worst Star Wars game ever (except for a couple levels, which were awesome).

Bionic Commando. So many falls to my death.

I don't know, Star Wars probably had some worse games than that one over the years. That franchise is full of turds.

I disagree, Shadows of the Empire was surprisingly fun and under appreciated I think.

What is that GI-Joe game up there on? More importantly was it any good? The NES and Arcade GI-Joe games were pretty decent.

The washed out colors and the not so terrible resolution made me think Commodore 64 and I was right!http://www.mobygames.com/game/gi-joe...ro/screenshots

Same here bro, good book and a decent game. Not the best SW game, but far from the worst. Was a shitton of fun. The sewer level was creepy as hell as a kid.

I though it was pretty good considering the fact that it was the only RPG available on the 3DO. One of my best friends also dished out 699$ plus tax for a 3DO on launch day...ouch!

Was very frustrating at some points.

who remembers how badass pc gamer demo discs were back in the mid 90's? i remember some of them having a fully interactive environment for navigating the games on the discs. like the menu was this alleyway and you could go down a manhole into this sewer bar. memories.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Bro I remember getting Syndicate and Wing Commander on one disc. That day didn't suck.

Memories indeed! I'd totally forgotten about the interactive portion. Used to piss me off 'cuz I didn't have the best system and the interactive portion would run slow as shit. Relative, I probably played ROTT demo more than the actual game. Shocking they're releasing a new version of it.

A few I still own:
