I think that the minor characters in the Original films were much more believable, and complimented the storyline much better - like Tarkin, Wedge etc. Just made the whole thing seem a little more believeable (is that the right word?). The whole feel of the new films just doesnt fit right - too much politics, not enough Millenium Falcons etc. Just thought the new films were trying a bit too hard.
Brilliant game! I had the original X-Wing game too - so many hours spent trying to complete it! I think my game glitched on one of the missions though.. Games for Windows 95 were class!
