Dammit Game of the Week: Missile Game 3D
Have you ever wished you could remote control a rocket and aim it at that jerk in HR who sneers at you everyday? Well I have the game for you, Missile Game 3D. The main idea of the game is that you are controlling a rocket that is being fired down a trench. Your goal is to avoid all obstacles that will appear in your way, progressing towards the final target.
I prefer to let my nerd flag fly a bit and imagine this as if you were making the trench run in the Star Wars films. The bobbing and weaving will become frantic and your speed increases. Prepare to have your reflexes tested to the limits in this great little time burner.
My best score was making it 56% of the way through the third level. Post your best score in the comments and compare with some of the other readers.
Try to not spend too much time blowing shit up… Bosses tend to be on the look out for employees that have pictures of rockets and explosions on their screen. Good luck and enjoy!

Of course there have been some bumps in the road, but overall one can find hours and hours of good gaming with the Star Wars games
