First released in 2005, Star Wars: Republic Commando acted as many a young Star Wars fan's initial introduction to the concept that the clone troopers of the prequel trilogy are human beings--creating unique identities for the seemingly identical soldiers. Republic Commando has a strong legacy among Star Wars fans--despite the game's removal from the official canon, it remains a key part of the Star Wars universe, especially when it comes to video game entries.

Handled by Aspyr Media, Star Wars: Republic Commando Remastered brings the original 2005 Xbox and PC game to PS4 and Switch with enhanced HD graphics and modernized controls, though the multiplayer is absent. Otherwise, it's the same game. And though the flaws in its gameplay are only more noticeable now 16 years later, this remaster manages to still deliver a compelling story of four specialized commandos engaging in a variety of combat missions across the Clone Wars.

Squad Up

In Republic Commando, you play as RC-1138 aka "Boss," commanding sergeant of a specialized commando unit trained to take on missions that require a greater level of skill and cognitive ability than standard clone troopers possess. Your unit, Delta Squad, is also composed of sarcastic demolitions expert RC-1262 aka "Scorch," by-the-books hacker and technical analyst RC-1140 aka "Fixer," and morbidly grim sniper RC-1207 aka "Sev." The game takes place over several locations, beginning with an assignment on Geonosis at the end of Attack of the Clones and concluding on Kashyyyk just prior to the events of Revenge of the Sith.

Earl Simmons, best known as DMX, one of the most famous rappers to rise to fame in the '90s, died on Friday, Variety reported. He was 50.

“We are deeply saddened to announce today that our loved one, DMX, birth name of Earl Simmons, passed away at 50-years-old at White Plains Hospital with his family by his side after being placed on life support for the past few days,” his family said in a statement.

“Earl was a warrior who fought till the very end. He loved his family with all of his heart and we cherish the times we spent with him. Earl’s music inspired countless fans across the world and his iconic legacy will live on forever. We appreciate all of the love and support during this incredibly difficult time. Please respect our privacy as we grieve the loss of our brother, father, uncle and the man the world knew as DMX. We will share information about his memorial service once details are finalized.”

DMX was hospitalized earlier last Friday after experiencing a heart attack. His manager reported on Wednesday that the artist was in a coma and on life support, with doctors scheduling brain function tests. It was reported earlier that DMX’s heart attack was the result of a drug overdose, but his representatives have yet to confirm any such information.

DMX rose to fame in the late 1990’s with the release of “It’s Dark and Hell is Hot” in 1998, following a long struggle to find commercial success with his singles. Later that same year, he released “Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood” followed by “...And Then There Was X” in 1999. The latter of the trio sold almost five million copies as of 2009. DMX was the fifth best-selling rap artist of the Nielsen SoundScan era with a reported total sales number of 23.3 million albums. The length of time between album releases increased dramatically after 2006, with DMX only releasing two albums in the past 15 years.

DMX’s music was characterized by Simmons’ gruff and aggressive vocals and lyrics. His most iconic tracks include “X Gon’ Give It to Ya,” “Party Up,” and “Where the Hood At,” the first of which was released as the lead single on the soundtrack to Cradle 2 the Grave, and later used as in the soundtrack to the Deadpool films.

DMX was also a multi-hyphenate, starring in a string of action movies like Cradle 2 the Grave with Jet Li and Exit Wounds with Steven Seagal, and appearing in a 1998 episode of South Park. He was featured as a character in 2003’s Def Jam Vendetta.
