I’ve recently been made aware of a wonderful fansite that is cataloguing every Star Wars video game with detailed written features on each title.
Star Wars Gaming has already done remarkably in depth features/reviews on 2 Star Wars games released for SEGA platforms. The first of these comes in the form of SEGA’s arcade exclusive Star Wars Racer Arcade from 2000. You can read their full feature by clicking here.
Also featured on the Star Wars Gaming fansite is an impressive feature on Star Wars: Rebel Assault. While this game is not a SEGA exclusive, it did receive a noteworthy port to the Mega-CD. You can read the feature on Rebel Assault by clicking here.
If you also have an interest in Star Wars games then I’d highly recommend Star Wars Gaming. The fansite is really turning into a great resource for information on this subset of games and I’m looking forward to more SEGA coverage from them in the future.
