One of the games that shaped my life
Every time the ages-old dilemma of "it has good ratings = it has to be good" vs. "it doesn't have good ratings = it can't be good" comes up, I am reminded of Shadows of the Empire. The critics slammed it, quite many players slammed it as well (albeit to a far smaller degree) and nearly two decades later, people like TeamFourStar have continued slamming it. It hasn't aged well and I can't fathom anyone who hasn't played it before buying and liking it. And I don't care. I have and will always think positively of this game - even though a lot of it is probably based on nostalgia (namely how SotE was one of the reasons I got interested in games to begin with). Yes, the Battle of Hoth mission is the best one (worth the current price tag of 5bux), but back in the day (up to the mid-2000s or so when I last played through the game) I had tremendous fun with Echo Base and Gall Spaceport - and to a lesser degree with the Ord Mantell, Tatooine levels and Skyhook. The rest were relatively nice to check out when playing through the entire game.
