What my friends and I have come up with is more of an arcade game, but here is the overview: X-Wing VS TIE Interceptor simulators. The "cockpits" faces each other, and each team (rebel/empire) have five simulators, as a squadron. Within the squadron is a leader with the center simulator, and each team can talk over their comm without the enemy hearing them. The simulator has movie-accurate controls (right down to targeting computer). Each team has a special ability: X-Wing: slowly regenerating shields due to R2 unit. TIEs: for each person in the controls of the simulator there are 2 AI TIE interceptors, so if all five join, there will be 15 TIEs for the Empire. While the X-wing have proton torps, the TIEs have the "chin" laser cannons in addition to the wing blasters. X-wings have shields while TIEs made up by manuverability and speed. And remember that little translator in the movie that convert Artoo's beeps into words? That will be the team stat monitor like "[Squad Name Here] 2 has turn on Targeting Computer." The squadron leader chooses the name of the squad before the game starts, so lets say Rogue is the name (after Rogue Squadron), so the team stat monitor will say something like "Rogue 2 has been destroyed!" when the person in Simulator #2 has been "killed." When destroyed, you screen will flash and go black. You can ether leave the simulator or just sit in the dark and listen to comm chatter. After a victory in one team, you can download a video of your battle, watched by a self moving auto camera (like on Empire at War film mode) by the USB port...so, cool huh? I wish we could make it...
