Star Wars: Republic Commando
In the Star Wars fiction, Republic Commandos are the best of the clone troopers. These were the black ops division of soldiers, carrying out special tasks by the Republic (and later the Empire). So when a game with the name ‘Republic Commando’ comes out and has players don the helmet of the elite Delta Squad. Yeah, you’re just a solider, but it’s still a great feeling to be considered among the best of the best in this grand sci-fi universe.
That feeling extends to the gameplay as well; even though it’s standard squad-based shooter fare like giving your AI teammates orders. The game more often than not demands that you be very precise in your aiming to take down enemies, but it’s not entirely a deal breaker. There’s enough action going on in the short campaign to make up for these issues and the lack of co-op, and that’s ultimately what’ll carry the game for you. Now please, EA, make another one of these.
