Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader

Plenty of praise was heaped on Rogue Squadron 2 for its outstanding visuals, showcasing just how powerful the Nintendo GameCube could be. But it was also a great realization for the first game’s formula, providing a fun action flight game with all of the memorable sequences from Star Wars and even better gameplay. To no one’s surprise, it was a success and sold faster than any of LucasArts’ previously published titles back then.
