The BEST Star Wars Game? Revenge of the Sith PS2 / Xbox 2022 Review

The Force is Strong with Revenge of the Sith: A Look Back at a Beloved Star Wars Game

Novara Skuara

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox was a game that surprised everyone upon its release. Fans were not expecting a tie-in game to be any good, but to everyone’s surprise, it turned out to be a fantastic game that had it all.

It was not too long, but the multiplayer mode gave it an incredible amount of replayability, allowing players to enjoy both a cooperative and a versus mode. The game was released on May 5, 2005, and was developed and published by LucasArts. It was a game that was closely tied to the movie of the same name, which was also released around the same time.

A Thorough Look at the five games of the Dark Forces / Jedi Knight series

Matt "ObiWaN" Hansen

The Dark Forces / Jedi Knight series was a pivotal moment in the Star Wars gaming franchise. Released between 1995 and 2003, the games brought new stories and characters to the Star Wars universe, all while revolutionizing the first-person shooter genre.

Star Wars: Uprising Review: The Mild Side of the Force

Editor

December is getting closer and we are all getting anxious and ready to visit the galaxy far, far away. The months that remain will not have any mercy on Star Wars fans that are shaking as they await more news about the upcoming Star Wars movie. The one thing that is making this wait even worse is that Disney has not been too shy about giving us supplementary merchandise that is based on the Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie. For example, you can play Star Wars: Uprising, which is a mobile MMOG that seems to be running parallel with the upcoming movie’s events. At least, it mainly is the same but there are some moments when the game does not intersect with the new movie releasing in December. However, you should not worry because you will not ruin anything or cause any spoilers. That’s actually kind of hard to…

Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ character names revealed

Editor

The names of the new characters that appear in the first Star Wars: The Force Unleashed trailer were revealed today in a very unique way. Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy shared the names with Entertainment Weekly, which posted them in a gallery. But it wasn’t just any gallery. The images from the trailer were put in the format of Topps’ iconic original Star Wars trading cards. They are: BB-8, the rolling, R2-D2-esque robot. Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), who’s seen flying in an X-Wing in the teaser. Kylo Ren (actor unknown), the mysterious hooded figure with the Stephen Colbert-approved lightsaber. Rey (Daisy Ridley), seen riding a speeder across a desert. Finn (John Boyega), the nervous-looking, helmet-less Stormtrooper, described on his card as “on the run.” Now, we don’t yet know if these are the full names for each of these characters, or if any of these names might be aliases (this is…

Can the Dark Side of the Force be Used for the Greater Good?

Lisa Clark

Star Wars lore and The Force is something that has been written, discussed, debated and analyzed since the first film’s debut. One topic of the Star Wars story that has been questioned and debated over the years is that of the Force and Light and Dark side. In this video, we can explore the question “Can the Dark Side of the Force be used for the greater good?” Some will argue that the Dark Side itself is inherently evil and that simply by choosing to act on the Dark, you cannot do good, and that you will become evil. The same is said of the Light Side and good. But if we really break down the story, we see that even the Light Side sometimes questions their goodness or makes choices that could be considered “evil”. Maybe it is not really as black and white as we’d like to think….

Jedi Master Maul Mod for Battlefront II: When the Dark Side Just Wasn't It Anymore

Jedi Master Maul Mod for Battlefront II: When the Dark Side Just Wasn’t It Anymore

Novara Skuara

Darth Maul has been through a lot. He got sliced in half, stitched back together, lost his brother, got rejected by Sidious, lost to Obi-Wan (again), and then got taken out with one poetic slash on Tatooine. You’d think at some point he’d consider career counseling. Well, in this alternate timeline, he did. Thanks to the Jedi Master Maul mod for Star Wars: Battlefront II (2017), Maul’s officially turned in his Sith robes and red saber for a more peaceful, slightly more stylish path. This isn’t a fanfic—it’s a real mod, and it’s surprisingly convincing. The what-if scenario: What if Maul, tired of chasing revenge like a galactic drama queen, decided to take a deep breath, reevaluate his life choices, and join the Jedi Order? Or, at the very least, put on a fresh robe and try not to murder everything in sight. It’s a twist that turns one of…

Novara Skuara

Star Wars Outlaws is full of shady deals, bounty hunting chaos, and shootouts across the Outer Rim.

The “New Kay – Helmets Only (Kay’s Natural Hair)” mod is here, and it’s giving Kay some serious bounty hunter drip without compromising her hairstyle. No bulky armor sets, no overly dramatic sci-fi headgear—just trophy helmets, loose hair, and a bit of storytelling flair. It’s the kind of subtle cosmetic update that makes a big impact, especially for players who care about character immersion and aesthetics. Trophy Helmets with a Story to Tell This isn’t just a fashion statement—it’s a flex. According to the lore-friendly setup behind the mod, Kay earned these helmets as trophies from the one and only Darthpaolex, presumably for “good deeds.” Now, whether those deeds were morally noble or…
