Summary

Don's comprehensive Fall of the Empire buyer guide: safe gameplay, impressive Spike 3 platform debut.

Don provides an in-depth first-hand buyer's guide for Fall of the Empire, Stern's Spike 3 flagship Star Wars game. The machine features a safe, accessible eight-shot fan layout with Star Wars assets, impressing primarily through Spike 3's new screen and audio capabilities rather than gameplay complexity. Don breaks down all three versions (Pro $6,900, Premium $10,000, LE $13,000) and discusses design choices, feature distribution, and value proposition for different buyer types.
