38. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader, GC (2001) LucasArts/Factor 5 (last year 37)

This game encapsulates the classic moments of the original trilogy's timeless battles and packs in some other varied, interesting missions, with lots of secrets, a challenging medal system, and some truly epic battles, this game really captures the appeal of the jet-fighter genre while perfectly synchronizing with the legend of Star Wars.

For 37: "Story mode" is a very accurate name for this game's single-player mode. Some stage names from this game include "Jelly Pipe," "Neuron Jungle" and the aptly-named "Frustration."

Have you gotten a chance to play rebel strike? the second Rogue Squadron game on the GC it even includes pretty much the whole of Rogue Leader in it but with a co op option for all the stages, definately worth checking out but I hear it has become a bit rare now. Great game tho..... THERE'S A LOT OF FIRE COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THAT DEFLECTION TOWER..... good times.

Yes, but i felt the on-foot stages (especially the atrocious Sarlaac Pit and Jedi Training levels) were enough to water that game down to being off the list, although the space segments were still sublime.
