[QUOTE]Originally posted by Veers: [QB] If you look at the Star Wars Chronology, which is probably one of the most canon Star Wars books, there is some information about the video games. "Dark Forces," for instance, is mentioned in the chronology and is considered part of the canon. I believe "Shadows of the Empire" is mentioned, but if not, I think the Dash Rendar storyline is also part of the canon. Other games, such as "Rogue Squadron" and its sequels and the Episode I-III games, I'm not so sure. Since many of them deal with the major characters and not minor ones, it'd be a good bet to say that they're non-canon. BTW, an interesting bit: Shadows of the Empire was a marketing test for the prequel movies. It was released in 1996 with multiple formats -- a video game, a novel, comic books, toys, a CD, even a "making of" book -- in order to see how it could be done for the future movies. The Special Edition served as a test to see what they could actually put on the screen. [/QB][/QUOTE]
