Strictly for Star Wars fans....A Free (so far as I can see) arcade flying game.
Remember the DS assault from Episode 4? Miss the the Trench Run sequence? Well miss it no more....
Runs in a web browser. Requires 3 MB Unity web player (Free) to be installed apart from the game code (auto download).
If you're a SW fan and like the Genre, TRUST ME - this is GREAT FUN and can be reasonably challenging.
Just don't expect eye popping graphics though I thought they were pretty decent though considering its running in a browser. Remember to switch to Full Screen mode for a better feel. By default it runs in windowed mode.
3 Game types - Trench, Dog Fight and HAN SOLO mode! Choice of ships include Lukes XWing, Vaders Advanced Tie, YWing, Tie Fighter and the MILLENIUM FALCON among others.
Note: Can take 3-10 minutes to "load" the actual game content depending on your connection speed. Never had so much fun in a browser based game. Suports a Leaderboard as well!

See this link for a very poor video grab. Yep, it actually supports the Iphone/IPod Touch as a game controller. I played with the mouse though - decent controls. Note that the videos on the page below are VERY POOR QUALITY, EXTREMELY JERKY and PIXELATED. The actual game is nothing like this. Its as smooth as silk and with decent graphics.
Star Wars Trench Run 2 Turns Your iPhone Into a Controller
For a good idea of what it looks like see this link which has in game screen grabs from the Iphone ver. The PC ver looks even BETTER IMO.

Star Wars: Trench Run for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store
Oh.....and did I mention its FREE? So far I haven't seen any request for money - not even for a sign up to play for that matter. Only played the Trench Run so far. Maybe the other levels are "pay as you go". The website has no mention of "pay to play" or any such restriction so I am not really sure.
If you like this, you can check out the other SW web based games available on the same site as well....
