11 Star Wars Games You Need To Play Before The Force Awakens

10. Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles (2000)

Okay, let's all acknowledge that while The Phantom Menace was a baffling, underwhelming, Binks-fest, the games to be spawned out of it were actually rather excellent. If you're looking for a loose movie tie-in game, look no further than Jedi Power Battles. It's great alone, and just as great with a second player. To fully appreciate JPB, you've got to take yourself back to the turn of the Millennium. Simple moments were amazing, like blocking a laser with your lightsaber and watching it ping back into a federation droid, while the playable character list was loaded with Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu and others. It feels slightly clunky nowadays, but if you own it, go for it.
