Shadows of the Empire is what happened between Empire and Return of the Jedi. A new bad guy rises up to power and you as Dash Rendar have to defeat him.
The play control on Shadows isn't the greatest, I can't remember how many times I fell off the cliffs in this game. There should have been more effort put into this detail. The graphics aren't too bad and the levels are quite unique. The Battle of Hoth stage was a little disapointing but still very fun. I did like, however, how they incorporated old and new ememies in the game such as Boba Fett and the Diagano Eye. I also enjoyed seeing IT-88 in the game, his short role in Empire was not enough.
The levels were fun but this game was very short. A few more levels would have been nice. The extras for getting all the Rebel icons were good but there should have been more rewards. Playing the ground missions then switching to flying was also nice because it kept the game fresh and you didn't get tired of doing aerial missions or missions on the ground.
Overall Shadows was a good game that just needed some fine tuning. It is and will be a good game to play.
