Episode V Battle for Hoth

This is Star Wars through and through! But why not try it? Look good... For those of you familiar with the Empire Strikes Back film (so that's probably 99% of readers) you'll remember the awesome battle on Hoth, the ice planet, with the snow speeders, AT-ATs and tow-cables that looped around their legs bringing them crashing down.

The Parker Bros. bought this to the Atari 2600 in the early 80s (minus the tow-cables!) and now Banshee Studios bring it to the PC via DarkBASIC Professional. Make no mistake about it, this is one fun game to play.

You fly your speeder across the landscape keeping a close eye on the scanner below, Imperial fighters will screech past you blasting as they go so they require some deft turning in order to blow them from the sky.

Across the ground the Scout Walkers and AT-ATs roam, it's your objective to destroy these AT-AT's before they reach your base.

You can try to shoot them (a direct hit in the head will suffice) but their firepower is so fast and powerful you'll probably not last the first pass. Instead you must loop your cable around their legs to bring them crashing down. Top quality stuff!
