STAR WARS™: Bounty Hunter™

a good old star wars clasic, the game is a really fun and with a bit of challange ^_^ i really like it

I was all in on getting to play through this game I played back when it came out in 2002. Sometimes, it's just better to keep those memories. Don't get me wrong, the game is a good time and there is some fun to be had (especially if you played it back in the day) but there are a few things that really keep this from being really solid in 2024. 1) Dying for the first time and seeing a set number of continues (5) was from the old school so no big deal, or so I thought until you get to some of the later stages and enemy placement is cheap and has a way to take some of those continues away from you. Checkpoints feel few and far between at times, especially at the tougher parts. 2) Controls are clunky. Not being able to jetpack and shoot at the same time, the half second it takes for you to aim your gun to have good accuracy (I feel like I would not be able to play this on controller anymore), and having to continually switch back and forth between your gun and the Bounty mode instead of having set buttons to do that are just a few things that make Bounty Hunter feel dated in the control department. 3) A few times I have had some weird audio issues where voices wouldn't play (I could still read the subtitles, so I guess not the biggest deal), audio for your weapons not coming through, or a sound staying around for the whole level (I had an elevator noise play for almost one whole level and didn't want to restart the level and lose all my progress so I just kept going). 4) The camera feels like it is fighting against you more than helping you at times making for some tougher than they should be or makes it hard to see enemies before they see you and start blasting. Outside of those issues I found the game to be a good time, even with some of my frustrations. I do recommend Bounty Hunter but only on sale. There is fun to be had if you can look past some of the jank of a game that is 20 years old.

This game is nostalgic, I love it so much

This game is simple but good.

I remember playing the absolute hell out of this game as a child and my dad loved it too. It still holds up as a solid game to this day
