Those were a bit before my time, but as I've said here before - i would do horrible things for a new Rogue Squadron (that isn't shit and captures the magic of the original)
I remember the death star trench run level was super cool to kid me, loved playing that one and trying to get the gold on it. And when people found out about the Naboo Starfighter? It wasn't a great ship in the game, but DAMN was that huge news!
The funny thing is they did it again with Rogue Squadron III when nobody figured out the way to unlock the Return of the Jedi arcade game for a long time (although you could unlock it with an Action Replay cheat).
Remember when games had unlocks that weren’t microtransactions or gacha trash?
:afflec-smoking:
Oh, to see those days return again. And I pretty much exclusively play indie shit these days, you'd like there'd be some stuff like that. Nope, nothing that I remember.
Oh, sure, absolutely. I've got a lot of stuff where you play to unlock, roguelites and shit are my jam. I think my brain just went immediately to cheat codes and convoluted actions you need to take.

I liked Rogue Squadron too, and agreed. :I-was-saying:

I was full :soypoint-2: about the Naboo Starfighter too, unapologetically.

Gunfire Reborn is mostly play to unlock unlocks, so it's the closest thing to a new online game that does that.
