Along with Super Mario 64, Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire was among the first games I played for the Nintendo 64. Many reviewers trashed the camera and controls, but I still found it to be a very thrilling adventure. In fact, it's what hooked me into Star Wars.
And speaking of SW, I also want to mention Republic Commando for the Xbox. It did get some praise, but not nearly enough for what I believe is a truly amazing first-person shooter. One of the very best SW games ever, IMO.
