Description

Star Wars: Rebel Assault II - The Hidden Empire puts players in the cockpit of iconic starfighters and on the ground as a Rebel soldier, delivering a story-driven, arcade‑style experience set between the events of Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. With full-motion video, pre‑rendered backgrounds and a blend of on‑rails shooting and quick‑time events, the game captures the feel of a blockbuster space adventure. Originally released in 1995 for PC and Mac, the title features multiple mission types, from dogfights over Hoth to ground assaults on Imperial installations. Its cinematic presentation and Star Wars lore make it a nostalgic favorite for fans of classic rail shooters.

Counter-Strike 2 is the free-to-play successor to CS:GO, a tactical 5v5 shooter defined by precise gunplay, economy management, and deep competitive play built on the new Source 2 engine.

So much fun

Counter-Strike 2 has been my go-to lately. Pure skill-based gunplay. One gripe: steep learning curve. Would recommend.
