If you can get past the horrible graphics and sound Dark Forces is a great shooter
Star Wars: Dark Forces is a classic shooter and was probably the first shooter I ever played. It has Doom style gameplay set in the Star Wars universe. The storyline is okay but not fantastic: You play as Kyle Katarn who... Read Full Review

Nothing can replace the feeling of hearing that theme, and for the first time, really BEING in this universe.
This will always be one of my favorite games. I'm a long time crazy Star Wars fanboy. When this came out, I was crazy about first person shooters and crazy about Star Wars. It was the first game I really played in the un... Read Full Review

Too boring to even finish. With a few extra coats of paint., this could have been a little more promising.
The Good: Relitively good gameplay allows fun shoot em up action that is a bit retro to say the least. The Bad: Graphics suck, is very boring, and it will disapoint many gamers,maybe. Better off playing Knights of the ol... Read Full Review

It may be old, but that never stopped Doom from being good either.
GOOD: Classic, straightfoward, shoot 'em up combat; weird level design (in a good way) BAD: No AI to speak of; graphics are an eyesore; incredibly easy; no multiplayer; cliched story Yes, Dark Forces is an old game. ... Read Full Review

Amazing, fabulous game! Highly recommended, specially for nostalgic players. A must-have for Star Wars fans!
Ten years ago, when Dark Forces was released, I couldn't believe my eyes. By that time, I was just like eight years old, a huge Star Wars fan, and I was actually playing a Star Wars FPS! This is an incredible game. The ... Read Full Review

It was a good game that made Doom look and play like garbage. *long*
This game plays so much better than Doom. You can actually have rooms above rooms. The levels were artistic and the game had a good feel for some of the weapons, especially the standard Stormtrooper rifle. The story i... Read Full Review

Where it all began for Kyle Katarn.
Star Wars: Dark Forces came out during the era in video games where first person shooters were just mindless romps through random levels loosely connected by what the developers called a "plot". When Dark Forces came out... Read Full Review
