When George Lucas re-released his original Star Wars trilogy to theatres a few years back, an entire generation of movie goers was all fired up to check out the new added scenes and improved visual elements. Seeing the Millenium Falcon take off from Tattoine left no doubt in anybody's mind what made that original Star Wars movie a Special Edition. This renewed feeling of excitement is what LucasArts was after with the Xbox "exclusive" Star Wars Starfighter: Special Edition. The only problem is, they couldn't squeeze enough "specialness" out of the original Starfighter on PS2 to warrant another spin around the Episode One galaxy. Even though it's on Xbox and well done at that, the bottom line is you've likely played a variation of this game already and you're not missing much if you skip this one.
