Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike

Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike is a Star Wars video game developed by Factor 5 and published by LucasArts exclusively for the Nintendo GameCube. The game follows Rogue Squadron, which, under the command of Luke Skywalker and Wedge Antilles, uses starfighters to engage and defeat the Galactic Empire. The game is set during the original Star Wars trilogy and recreates battles that take place during those films.

Rebel Strike was developed as a sequel to Rogue Squadron and Rogue Leader. It added the ability for the player to leave their starfighter to participate in land battle as well as to enter pilot vehicles during certain missions. The game also has a multiplayer mode that allows two players to play all but two of the missions from Rogue Leader co-operatively. Being a "second generation game" (as producer Julian Eggebrecht states in the aforementioned documentary), the production team felt the need to expand upon the game's predecessor Rogue Leader by adding enhanced atmospheric effects, more impressive explosions and the capability of having many more enemy AI players on-screen at once-among other improvements; such as the co-op mode and various Vs. options. In addition, there are many Star Wars craft that you can use like the X-Wing.
