To this day I hate that game. It was impossibly hard without cheats.
Games used to be easier for me when I was a kid. I used to beat the speeder level in Battletoads and the water level in Ninja turtles nes without issue, now I can’t do any of it.
There were cheats?
I just remember a train?, and agony.
Recently tried to play it and ran out of lives multiple times in the first 20 mins or so. The AT-ST inside the base just keeps smashing me.
I remember SotE very well. The whole thing was a major media event by Lucasfilm. There was:
- PC and N64 game
- Tie-in novel
- Comic book series
- Soundtrack CD
- A ‘making of’ book
Essentially, everything that would’ve been released to promote a major film but this time, there was no film. I remember the making of book well as there was a picture of the game developers playing the N64 version but their hands were in cardboard boxes. The N64 hadn’t been released yet and so they had to hide the controllers from prying eyes.
