Is It Good Or Bad, The Story Additions Of Star Wars Games To Star Wars Saga?

Most Star Wars fans do already like the star wars games and what they bring to original star wars movie story. But there are still people who disagree with it. They say the games, which are trying to add various and sometimes really irrelevant to original SW movies do make the story grow childish. That it is actually frustrating to see their epic characters being slain by upstarts that are pointed out as players in the games. Or maybe it is stupid to add these kind of extra stories or logic to SW even, and that it must be left what it is alerady, at top of its popularity. I personally disagree to these statements.

It is true that sometimes, in some games the story is twisted and logic is distorted even in some ocasions made fun of. However, don't any other games bring wider range to SW? Not just something past about Anakin Skywalker's life but also its past and future included in whole star wars story and logic. Even some of the games have such awesome story that they must be filmed, such as the recent one, The Force Unleashed. Originally a play-station game, it has also been released for PC and considered awesome, for its history. Now that one can even be counted as a necessary movie since it fills alot of blanks about what happened between the periods, the movie 3 to 4, when Anakin became Darth Vader, and Luke, Leia born, to they became 20. It gives 20 years of silence to the history, which is actually a great opportunity to fill in. What irrelevance it might have is trivial when compared to the worth of the whole story. Even with only the cinematics, it is quite an adventure and also in hollywood style! Apart from that, there are Jedi Academy series which tell us about a Kyle Katarn most of the time. Now this guy was never mentioned in anything of SW until these games, and in it, eventhough through the actions he took, was proven enough, he was meant also in past to be a great jedi and good old friend of Luke. This might create a bit of unwanted questions as, where was he during times of Deathstar's destruction, and war of rebellion? How in hell he became a jedi? As he looks older than Luke himself, he must be trained before Luke, which takes us to times around 3rd movie where all jedi were killed except few survivors that we know are Obi-Wan and Yoda. But who was this Kyle Katarn? Even that he doesn't look anything more than bantha fodder, as Desann, our great guy appears.

It is said in the game that Desann was trained in Luke's academy some time ago. Well to be honest i have never seen such a creature, nor heard in any SW movie. But lets pretend it is possible that he could be a mutant or anything like that, since, its the whole galaxy for god's sake. Apart from these minor nuisances, those games too, add flexibility and range to SW itself. And there in my opinion should always be these kind of star wars games, especially RPG games which add awesome stories, be madee therefore to increase the range of the story and make it for everyone. Also that maybe if someone doesn't like to watch movies they can play the games instead to learn the story and that could be what makes the thing famous.
