Star Wars has a long history of video games that have added to the lore and elevated the appeal of the epic saga. There have been dozens of Star Wars games since the early 80's, and the flood has never really subsided over the years. But just like the movies themselves, some titles are remembered much more fondly than others. When considering the best Star Wars games for this list, it is clear that the saga has had its ups and downs when it comes to games. In this list one can find brilliant dog-fighting games, first-person shooters, Jedi dueling and even Real Time Strategy games! There are those all-time classics, like Knights of the Old Republic, which some fans claim to be better than the actual films themselves. Jedi Knight III: Jedi Academy even let you train as an apprentice and become the hero (or villain) you were always destined to be! And there are epic adaptations of battles, races, and dogfights from the movies themselves that fondly remind us of the epic struggle between the Light side and the Dark side of the Force that epitomizes Star Wars. Irrespective of their genre, platform and quality, these games have never failed to remind us why we love Star Wars so much. The games fill us with the same kind of childhood wonder as the classic films themselves. They let us feel as though we are a part of that vast, wonderful universe and that beloved galaxy far, far away!

Star Wars: Battlefront II is a 2005 first- and third-person shooter video game based on the Star Wars film franchise. Developed by Pandemic Studios and published by LucasArts it is a sequel to 2004's Star Wars: Battlefront and the second game in the Battlefront series. The game was released in PAL regions on October 31, 2005, on the PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable (PSP), Microsoft Windows, and Xbox platforms, and in North America on November 1 of the same year. It was later updated to be backwards compatible for the Xbox 360. It was also released on the PlayStation Store on October 20, 2009, for download on the PSP. The PSP version was developed by Savage Entertainment. The game features new vehicles, characters, game mechanics, maps, and missions compared to the original Battlefront. Unlike its predecessor, Battlefront II features a more narrative-based campaign, retelling portions of the Star Wars story from the point of view of a veteran Imperial stormtrooper, reminiscing about his tour of duty in service of both the Galactic Republic and as part of the Galactic Empire. Gameplay additions over Battlefront include the use of Jedi, additional game modes such as hero assault, and objective-based space battles. Battlefront II was well received, with the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions scoring in the mid 80s at aggregators GameRankings and Metacritic. The PC version scored slightly lower at both sites, scoring a 76.60% at GameRankings and 78 at Metacritic. The PSP version was the worst received, scoring 70.93% at GameRankings and 69 at Metacritic. Reviewers generally praised the narrative-based story; however, some felt that the upgrades from the original were not enough to merit the price. Like the original game, it was a commercial success. GameSpy Technology scheduled a shut-down across all titles using the service for May 31, 2014, which included Star Wars: Battlefront II for PC, PS2, and Xbox. Electronic Arts announced it would extend support for Battlefront II until June 30, 2014. The extended support ended on July 25, 2014, taking all GameSpy online video games across all platforms offline. The Windows version was added to a list of supported games on GameRanger on May 31, 2014, which allows for continued online play. However on October 2, 2017, multiplayer for the Windows version (but not the console versions) was brought back up, allowing for Steam and GOG cross-play.
