Star Wars: Republic Commando is a 2005 tactical first-person shooter video game developed and published by LucasArts for the Xbox and Microsoft Windows. Set in the Star Wars Legends expanded universe, the game revolves around Delta Squad, a special ops unit within the Galactic Republic's Clone Army consisting of four genetically enhanced clone troopers, referred to as "Clone Commandos." Throughout the single-player campaign, players assume the role of the squad's leader, RC-1138 ("Boss"), and complete various missions during the Clone Wars. Players can also indirectly control the actions of their squadmates RC-1262 ("Scorch"), RC-1140 ("Fixer"), and RC-1207 ("Sev") by issuing different commands, which allow for certain situations to be approached in multiple ways.
Runs well on modern hardware.

It's like playing a singleplayer co-op shooter (and I love co-op shooters). A surprising amount of depth to both the FPS and strategy gameplay. I played in hard mode and I died plenty, but often the answer to beating a section I was stuck on was a change in squad tactics rather than simply improving my shooting on the next try. Alongside fantastic art, music, characters and atmosphere, this makes for one of the best singleplayer campaigns I have ever had the pleasure of playing through. Delta Squad forever.
I used to play this all the time as a kid, but I was never able to beat the first level until I got older. My favorite single-player Star Wars game. Great campaign and story too. It's moderately difficult even on default difficulty.
Another nostalgic star wars game from the early 2000's.. although the visuals look dated, it adds to the overall vibe of the game. Republic Commandos has plenty atmosphere, grit, and examples of how the clones are more than just soldiers.
