Sega X Star Wars, What a Dynamic Duo!
1998->2023 25 years later, I believe this game can still carry arcades IMO. From Childhood to Adulthood once more I see myself wondering if things were once great as I remember them and I am glad Star Wars Trilogy Arcade still holds up very well.
Running on the Sega Super Model 3, this game certainly shines through the CRT television. This cursor-based rail shooter takes you through the epic battles of Episode IV-VI which include Death Star I, Battle of Hoth, Boba Fett Duel on Tatooine, Battle of Endor, Darth Vader duel in the Emperors Throne Room & Death Star II. This game is all gas and no breaks. It wants to throw you right into the action and even better they thrown in that John William Score which is absolutely memorable on the cabinet Sub woofer and Speaker system. There was never a moment I was not excited to thrown my quarter at it to continue.
Its length is about 30 minutes or so, the cabinet I was playing it was 25 cents to play and the cabinet seemed to be on the normal difficulty as "Cheap shots" were not as prevalent but were still there if you did not know the pattern. I would say the most important aspect is if the stick is calibrated correctly. Do not even bother playing it on a non calibrated or broken stick, you will have a mediocre time.
As far as cons go, you do have your arcade cheap shots which is unfortunate but I get it. There is also times during the duel were it was slightly hard to navigate the hand to where it needed to go but I don't blame it on the game but its stick calibration but no calibration is gonna be perfect.
Not much more I can say besides this is absolute classic SEGA managed to cook with the Super Model 3. I absolutely recommend this if you see it at a Barcade, Movie theatre, hell anywhere were they still have these machines. BANGER of a Arcade Game.
