Star Wars: TIE Fighter (Collector's CD-ROM)

Den nya grafiken tillsammans med den kompletta samlingen uppdrag gör att Tie Fighter Collectors CD-ROM verkligen förtjänar högsta betyg. Dethär är ett av de bästa spelen någonsin. Serve the emperor above all others.

So it's with great enthusiasm that I give "TIE Fighter" Applelinks' higest rating. As a flight sim, it reaches well beyond its "Star Wars" fan base to impress gamers of all types and ages. As another and completely different take on the "Star Wars" saga, "TIE Fighter" is faithful to its predecessors while being original enough to generate the same enthusiasm. It should quite easily keep you busy until we get the Mac version of "Pod Racer."

Eigentlich sind aufgewärmte Spiele nicht unbedingt meine Sache, bei Tie Fighter muß aber auch ich zugeben, es hat sich gelohnt: Mit der schnellen SVGA-Grafik, den Filmsequenzen und der verbesserten Sprachausgabe, vor allem aber wegen der 22 neuen und gut designten Missionen hat Tie Fighter fast schon Wing Commander 3-Niveau.

Is this now-classic sci-fi action game worth the money? If you are a Star Wars fan and have enjoyed (and are still enjoying) X-Wing, this game is likely to keep you happy for hours on end. TIE's game play is almost identical to X-Wing. I can't recommend buying this game if your sole intention is to keep LucasArts developing Mac games (unless you've got $25 to blow). Although out-dated and out-matched by most of today's Mac action titles, TIE Fighter's low price may be its saving grace in triggering future Mac releases from LucasArts to appear (no guarantees though).
