Star Wars: TIE Fighter

Still the best

User Rating: 9.4 | Star Wars TIE Fighter: Collector's CD-ROM PC

Some 11 years have gone by and this is still one of the greatest games of all time, regardless of genre or platform. A great twist on the X-Wing series putting you in the cockpit of the Imperial forces. If you thought TIE Fighters were easy marks because they lack sheilds, guess again. What makes this game stand out is how your actions feed into the story and vice versa. And the surprises you face working for the Empire are so different from flying for the Rebels. A must have for any collection. This is how you do a space sim RIGHT. This is the kind of pacing and style you shoudl go with. A most impressive game.
