Star Wars: Empire at War is, we think, LucasArts´ apology for LucasFilm… and Force Commander… and Rebellion, while they´re at it. It contains only minimal references to the three new movies, three different real-time strategy systems that cover the strategic game, land battles, and of course space combat. In short, just about everything you´d think you´d want in a Star Wars strategy game seems to be here. Given the nearly total lack of new movie references, it´s like LucasArts is going out of its way to say “see, Star Wars doesn´t have to suck!â€
