Is it still worth playing?
Factor 5 and LucasArts' flight action game for the GameCube, the second Rogue Squadron, released as a launch title for the console in November 2001. Spanning all three original Star Wars films, you control Luke Skywalker or Wedge Antilles as the Rebel Alliance fights the Galactic Empire in ten missions across various planets. Each level has objectives such as search and destroy or protection, against TIE fighters and Star Destroyers in the air and walkers and laser turrets on the ground. A command cross lets you give limited orders to your wingmen. You can fly seven craft, among them the X-wing, A-wing, Y-wing, Snowspeeder and the Millennium Falcon, and some levels let you change craft mid level. Each mission still has a new angle when you replay it in a different ship.
