Star Wars is that one franchise I keep going back well knowing I'll get disappointed in one way or another because it played such a big part of my adolescent days. I simp over the Fetts, so when they cucked Boba out of his show and gave Mando the cool gizmo guy mantle I felt very, very disturbed to say the least. And if you felt the same as me still clinging to abandoned Legends EU canon and in desperate need of copium then here it is: Bounty Hunter from 2002, one of the original AOTC tie-in games. Hmmm yes, when Lucasarts was still a thing and Mouse wasn't at the helm.

Graphically enhanced, now the signature 2000s contrast in quality between CGI cutscenes and gameplay is thinner than ever and it plays smoothly with a KBM setup despite the original release never intended to use them as controls, and runs great without any performance issues(so far) as it should be after 23 years. With every imaginary checkmark I expected from this release filled I feel very satisfied with my purchase. Sure, its gameplay is dated and it can feel a little short for $20 but it is a product of its era and you should adjust your expectations accordingly.

It's nice to see Aspyr recouping from the blunder they made with Battlefront Collection back in March, and while people were mostly concerned about this release because of it, I can't lie but admit deep down I had just a tiny bit of hope knowing it is the same Aspyr that brought us PC gamers both Force Unleashed games all those years ago. I sincerely hope this practice of freeing former console exclusives becomes a trend because there are so many forgotten gems out there worthy of spotlight. Tem Morrison outta 10, got served what I wanted. Would definitely go for an additional playthrough as Boba Fett. ♥♥♥♥ you Disney for taking 1313 away from us.

@¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡RCRREeceptio The link in this review is supposed to display a screenshot and nothing harmful. And I don't know what profile details you are talking about, as the screenshot itself is mine.
