Top Five: Star Wars Games of the 1980s!

        Hello and Welcome to this episode of RPGGamer Top 5s, and this time we'd like to take a look at the top 5 Star Wars Video games which came out in the 1980's.
        While video gaming became absolutely massive in the 1980's, and the third movie in the original trilogy was released in 1983, you'd think there were loads of games released to take advantage of the name and licence. However this really wasn't the case, and we couldn't really remember that many games, so we ran to Wikipedia to check the release dates of the various games, and it turns out there was only a total of 8 different titles released bearing the official Star Wars licence. As it turned out that some of the games we'd thought were out in the 80's, like the classic trilogy on the NES, actually never came out until the early 90's.
        The few games which did come out in the 1980's were released for a variety of formats, so we'll only be featuring one format, probably that the game is best known for being on, but possibly just the one we remember playing it on first.
