This is the first sequel to Rogue Squadron; technically it is a spin off, but it is essentially more Rogue Squadron with Episode 1 vehicles. I originally played it on the N64. I didn't really like the movie, but I loved this game as much as Rogue Squadron. 20+ years later when I saw that Rogue Squadron was on PC via steam, I wished that Battle for Naboo was also on PC, only to learn that it was on PC for Windows 2000. It is a real pain to play the game today with a virtual machine. It needs to run on modern computers, and it could stand to have a graphical overhaul. This game needs to be part of the classic Star Wars games on PC because there are bad Star Wars games that have been reworked to run on modern platforms, and it is an injustice that one of the good Star Wars games has not been brought forward.

I still remember this as a great spin off from the Rogue Squadron franchise. You can tell that they were experimenting with playable ground vehicles which they would include in the later two Rogue Squadron games, this game crawled the mud of the prequels so that Rogue Squadrons 2 and 3 (Rebel Strike) could be the amazing games that they were.

I played this back on the N64 after Rogue Squadron. Found the story better than its predecessor and the entire game superior to the Starfighter series. Would love to see it!

A great companion piece to Rogue Squadron, with more of its streamlined flight combat in a Phantom Menace coat of paint, with land vehicles to mix up the formula. The original Rogue Squadron is on GOG, and this could certainly use some love instead of being left out in the cold.

When I was 8 our neighbour, an older woman, gave me this old beaten-up Windows 95 computer which I spent hours learning how to fix and upgrade to windows 2000 and the first game I got to play was Battle for Nabuu, when it was gifted to me for my 9th birthday. I played and replayed that game so many times that I can vividly remember the frustration of trying to dodge mines at high speeds that you could barely see, but also the exhilaration of going up against the trade federation blockades in fantastic space battles and destroying their control ship. I would love this game to return and be able to re-experience all of that as if for the first time again
I remember playing this game on my dad's computer, and it is one of my favorite Star Wars games to this day. and i wish to play it again. It would be awsome to play it on gog.
I loved playing this game. Plus all of the other star wars games that I played are on good of games (GOG). I have all of the other star wars games and it would be nice to add this one to my collection

I remember getting this game along with the PC port of the original Rogue Squadron. I still have the physical discs. unfortunately I don't have access to Win9X discs or hardware, so being able to play the discs isn't actually feasible. This is the direct sequel to Rogue Squadron (take that GameCube Rogue Squadron) as it uses the same engine, controls, and player system.
Rogue Squadron was such an amazing Star Wars game at the time of its release. Battle for Naboo took that formula and changed it up with changing vehicles, and with land missions. I absolutely enjoyed playing both of these games on the N64. I would love to see Battle for Naboo on GOG to be with Rogue Squadron. It's the last of the N64 games that were on PC to be preserved.

Ikaruga
IkarugaIn this vertical scrolling spaceship shooter, you control a ship that can change its polarity at will. As blue/white, the ship can easily destroy red/black enemies, and vice versa. Bullets of your polarity can be collected to fuel your energy gauge, but those opposite will kill you. Destroying an enemy ship causes them to fire revenge bullets which can be absorbed and fired back by the player. Different difficulties exist to change exactly how you interact with polarized points, or how they appear. It is the spiritual successor to Radiant Silvergun, featuring similar level and boss design, as well as it's buddhism inspired themes and aesthetics. Both are directed by Hiroshi Iuchi, who also composed Ikaruga's soundtrack.

Bulletstorm
BulletstormBulletstorm brings new furor to first-person shooter action thanks to its signature 'kill with skill' gameplay. The game tells the story of a futuristic confederation protected by an elite band of mercenaries: Dead Echo. When Dead Echo members Grayson Hunt and Ishi Sato learn they've been working for the wrong side, they're betrayed by their commander and exiled to the far reaches of the galaxy. In Bulletstorm, Grayson and Ishi find themselves surrounded by hordes of mutants and flesh eating gangs in an abandoned paradise. They have two objectives: get off the planet alive, and exact revenge on the man who sent them there. Players step into the role of Grayson Hunt complete with an arsenal of over-the-top combat moves and outrageously large guns. Bulletstorm's array of distinct 'skillshots' produces unprecedented levels of frantic gameplay and yell-inducing satisfaction. The skillshot system rewards players for inciting mayhem in the most creative way possible. The more insane the skillshot, the more points players collects to upgrade their character and unlock weapons, which then allows them to execute even more creative moves and exaggerated skillshots.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
