Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is an action, sci-fi video game released by LucasArts in 1999 after the release of the movie of the same name. It is based on the film Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.

The player can play as several characters in the movie. As a jedi (Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan) you can go around the many levels of the game and help, although, it’s free roaming and non-linear, thus, you get to make your own choices (this includes killing anyone at will). As a jedi, you have the ability to use your lightsaber, a blaster, a thermal detonator, and the force. As a regular person (Such as Padme), you can use a blaster and detonators. On any level, you can talk to and interact with anyone, you can even chose what to say to them and they respond. Throughout the game you will battle the sith Darth Maul several times, battle droids, the Trade Federation, Droidekas, Tanks, Vulture Droids, and more.

Return of the Jedi

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi is a 1984 Atari arcade game, and the follow-up to the first Star Wars arcade game. The game utilizes raster graphics, rather than vector graphics, which were used for the first and third Atari arcade games based on the Star Wars franchise.

The player takes control of three different vehicles in stages based upon the original film. Gameplay is from a 3/4 isometrically projected perspective, as pioneered in Sega’s earlier Zaxxon. Play is broken into several stages. In the first stage, the player pilots a speeder bike to the Ewok village. The next stage involves piloting the Millennium Falcon to destroy a reactor. Another speeder bike stage follows. The final stage involves piloting both a AT-AT and the Millennium Falcon in rapid succession in a fight against a star destroyer.
