GAMERS Ausgabe 11/1994: [Grafik: 4- Sound: 4- Gesamt: 4-]
Das Star Wars-Szenario verspricht recht viel, hält aber auf dem Mega-CD recht wenig. Das die Steuerung in vielen Szenarien unter aller Kanone ist, könnte man ja noch verkraften, wenn wenigstens etwas anderes geboten würde. Die unübersichtliche Krümelgrafik macht auch den optischen Genuß zunichte: Es ist nicht sonderlich berauschend, durch grob gepixelte eintönige Landschaften zu fliegen. Da hilft auch die Macht nichts mehr…

Trotz enormer grafischer Einbußen gegenüber der PC-Version sollte sich kein Star Wars-Fan den Silberling für´s Mega CD entgehen lassen. Atmosphäre pur und eine intelligente Steuerung überdecken das optische Manko relativ schnell.

I wish I had played this game before I played Rebel Assault II on my Playstation, because these low-quality graphics are almost too much to bear. Rebel Assault is one of those annoying games where you spend most of the time watching video. Many of the clips are taken directly from the Star Wars films, although they are severely pixilated (due to the Sega CD's limited color palette). The new footage tends to be awful - almost comical. In some cases, they superimposed moving lips and eyes over stiff faces, and the effect is unconvincing at best; downright creepy at worst. At least the video segments extend across the full screen - a rarity for the Sega CD. Rebel Assault's audio really shocked me. The music is far from CD quality, and the digitized sound effects are rough. The stages include Tie fighter shooting, navigating an asteroid field, mounting an attack run on a Star Destroyer, and taking down an Imperial Walker. There are also a few crude stormtrooper shootout stages, but your character looks like a woman for some reason. The space shooting stages are best (easiest to tolerate), where you aim at obvious targets and have very limited range of movement. You have no control over your general direction, and waiting for your ship to turn around (for another run) takes forever. The worst stages are those where you must navigate a ship through confined areas (like a desert canyon). The steering controls are extremely unresponsive, and determining your position from the pixilated graphics is difficult. Rebel Assault could have gotten by on graphics alone in 1993, but it hasn't aged well. I didn't enjoy playing this at all. www.videogamecritic.net
You play a Rebel space cadet and have various missions to complete: Flying starships, destroying Walkers, infiltrating an enemy base etc. All viewpoints and gameplay is through the use of motion video backdrops. www.Mobygames.com
Your chance to be someone who isn't Luke Skywalker (honest) take on the Empire. The opening levels are slow, concentrating on flight training at the rebel base, but a password system means that you only have to get through them once. Levels vary between space battles, surface fights and on-foot sections, adding some variety. The graphics are perhaps a little rough, but you can always see what's happening. Cut scenes are a mixture of sections from the film and new footage to provide a background story, and look surprisingly good - but are sadly unskippable. The sound is, of course, excellent, from the opening theme, through the speech both in cut-scenes and the game, to X-Wing lasers sounding exactly as they should. A challenging and enjoyable game that is quite easy to find. www.sega-mega-cd-library.co.uk
