[edit] First-person shooter

First-person shooter (FPS) games are video or computer games in which the player's viewpoint is from the character's perspective. Star Wars: Dark Forces and its sequels are FPSs, as well as Star Wars: Republic Commando. See Category:First-person shooters for more examples.

[edit] Flight simulator

Flight simulators are games that put the player in the position of piloting an air- or spacecraft against opponents or obstacles. The X-wing and TIE Fighter series, Rogue Squadron series, Starfighter series, and Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed are all flight simulators.

[edit] Real-time strategy

Real-time strategy (RTS) are usually computer games in which the player views multiple characters from a top-down point of view. In RTSs players usually command multiple groups of characters without actually fighting themselves. Examples of RTS include Star Wars: Empire at War and Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.

[edit] Role-playing game

Role-playing games (RPGs) are video or computer games in which the player views the character from a third person perspective, and makes choices that ultimately change the games' story. Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords are RPGs. They are similar in some ways to tabletop roleplaying games.

[edit] Massive multiplayer online role-playing game

Massive multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) are online games where players take on characters and interact with each other on a broad scale, often featuring a variety of environments and filled with non-player characters (NPCs) to provide a more realistic feel to the game. Examples include Star Wars Galaxies and Star Wars: The Old Republic.
