STAR WARS™ Republic Commando™ Reviews

This is a good game for it's age, but it's borderline unplayable now due to the mouse and graphical issues. The mouse is faster than a podracer. If you're a masochist, then even trying to click anything in the menu is a game in itself. See how far you can get! It definitely is a game that should be remastered at the very least. Unplayable on modern systems without downloading sketchy mods sadly.

A wonderful classic that is deserving of its own Big Budget movie trilogy!

Awesome game, played this first time in 2024 and it was better than games i have played in the last five years. besides the button mapping and mechanics being a little dated it is worth playing for any star wars fan or someone looking for a solid scifi shooter.

The definitive squad-tactics shooter in my eyes. The squad commands and controls are very simple and intuitive, but they offer just enough depth to stay fun and engaging for the entire game. The squad AI itself is honestly pretty impressive even today, and especially for the time. They're pretty good at taking cover where it makes sense to, even if you order them to a specific spot, and are generally never frustrating to fight along side. It helps that delta squad itself is comprised of four very likable characters that are constantly entertaining with their banter and one liners. Disregarding the squad for a second though, the game is otherwise a fairly competent halo clone. There are a handful of moments throughout the game where you're separated from the squad, and it's remarkable how those moments never feel out of place or overly clumsy, although usually for those moments the squad isn't too far behind. Another thing that makes this game stand out is the general tone and art style. This game decides to show a much darker and more grounded perspective of the star wars universe that the movies don't usually touch on. The visuals are often quite grungy and raw feeling, compared to the retro futuristic look the movies are known for, and honestly it's pretty metal. It even dips its toe into the horror genre a couple of times, and for what it is it's honestly pretty effective. Despite this, the sound effects and music are always reminding you that, yes, this is star wars. The iconic John Williams soundtrack and other familiar sound effects like laser blasts and droid beeps keep the game from getting too edgy. This game has it's own visual identity but is still very much a star war, and I really like that. The one major problem with the game is its length. The game is pretty short, 6 hours if I'm being generous, and yet still feels a little rushed by the end. Despite that though, I have replayed this game countless times across multiple platforms, and I plan on revisiting it even more times for years to come. A must play FPS in my opinion. It simply does not get much better than this.

i had the game before but i couldn't play it because it wasn't controller suportble so i had to delete it so please for an futer update add controller

It really sucks that there is no controller support. That's how my brother and I played it back in the day on the original Xbox. It feels wrong to play it with a keyboard and mouse to me.

This is a well made game that will challenge you, and leave you frustrated at times. But you will be left satisfied. However, without any spoilers, the end of the game is lacking because the developers went for a cliff hanger. Expecting a sequel to have been commissioned. This didn't happen, and so the game feels unfinished as a result. That being said, I have had a lot of fun with this game. You get attached to your squad mates, easily becoming fully immersed in the Star Wars 'universe' as clone commandos.

The solution to crashing upon launching a new game is modifying your graphics settings. Turn bumpmapping to low Turn squad shadows to low as well. If you are having trouble with your mouse being too sensitive, modify your mouse DPI settings outside of the app. For this game, I used 200/400. This is an amazing game and it's a shame so many people are having trouble playing it. Keep trying, it's worth it. There are quite a few bugs, but I don't care because they aren't severe enough to take away from the game quality. Highly recommend!

Holy cow. This is one of the greatest games of all times. This was the 3rd game I ever bought, back when i was 8. This game was just so cool, as a star wars nerd I enjoyed it very much. The squad gameplay makes it really feel like your the leader, the commands are fun and unique and doesn't make the game do it all for you, you can actually use squad tactics to help win which I learned later on. You can play this game multiple times through but it still feels fresh and great. This is one of my favourite games and the nostalgia factor makes it even better. I really love the different personalities of each squad mate, I personally loved Sev and Scorch, not Fixer that much. The voice acting was immaculate and they didn't repeat lines like they do in other games such as Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3. You should 100% buy this game even if you dont know star wars or not really interested it in. Thank you so much for making this game LucasArts.

Game abruptly ends with a cliffhanger nu metal music starts playing credits play no sequel Might be the most 2000's game of all time
