Description official descriptions
You are a young member of a trading family trying to make a living by staying neutral, but your business rivals have other ideas. The galaxy is at war, and sooner or later you will have to choose sides...
X-Wing Alliance is the latest in the X-Wing series of Star Wars space in-cockpit combat sim. You start in your family's Corellian transports (multiple models) as you deliver cargo and practice gunnery against pirates, poachers (who steal your cargo), and rivals. Later, you will get to join the Rebel Alliance, fight plenty of battles, and eventually make your way to the battle that will destroy the second Death Star! Adjust power, change weapons, arm lasers and concussion missiles, even jump into a gun turret (for crafts so equipped), adjust power and recharge. There are OVER FIFTY missions for you to make your way through, plus full multiplayer support. You also get a "souvenir" from each mission you complete... Very cute.

The Good
Everything!!! The graphics were excellent, the sounds were great, the music was INCREDIBLE!
The Bad
Nothing, except for some missions. They didn't beta this game too much, and some missions had bugs in them. Other than that, it was excellent.
The Bottom Line
BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT!!!

How could you not love this game.
The Good
Lucas Arts is a very good gaming company. When they have a successful game, they don't try to change much when they make a sequel. And X-Wing Alliance is just as Tie Fighter and X-Wing. Where it improves on those games is in the plot line and make your own mission scenarios. There are so many different space fighters you can fly. And, of course, great graphics and music.
The Bad
Nothing except that the Azzameen family seemed like a bunch of dorks.
The Bottom Line
You can never have enough Star Wars games.

Beautiful Space combat sim!!!!
The Good
Almost everything. The graphics were crisp, and the sound could not get anymore authentic. With a multitude of ships to fly, this game is large and the replay value is enormous. You can fly up close and see every detail of the ship. And if you have 3D acceleration, your heart will skip a beat after seeing it. The gameplay is nearly identical to X-wing and Tie-fighter except that now you get to have the use of a turret.
The Bad
The loading times were slightly long and the game sometimes makes you wait for a ship to dock or a transport to reach it's destination.
The Bottom Line
This game is a masterpiece and should be owned by all.
