Star Wars Trench Run for the iPhone

Star Wars: Trench Run for the iPhone gets you into Luke's multitouch underpants, so you can blow up the Death Star while Darth Vader and a thousand TIE Fighters chase you. And, apparently, you can play on the Empire's side:

Looks nice in the screenshots, but remember that the $5 Star Wars Trench Run is one of those games that has special graphics features if you run it on the iPhone 3GS. You know, because everybody knows the Force is stronger in that one. [iTunes App Store]

作為一個幾十年的星際大戰電影迷,這個遊戲讓我只想說:「哇啊啊啊啊啊……」。看到它,讓我想起十幾年前舊金山機場候機室中的一個古老電玩機台,玩的就是這個,只是當時的繪圖都是一些簡單的線條而已。

也許這個遊戲還會出續集,是坐在「千年鷹」砲塔裡頭手忙腳亂的場景。

Being a decades-old Star Wars fanboy, I could only "Aaaaaaaaaah...." when I saw this, and this also reminded me of a primitive arcade game machine in the SFO Airport 15 years ago.

Maybe this game would have a sequel with the scene looking out from the turret of Millennium Falcon.
