Galactic Racer looks fun!
Aside:
I’d love to see a similar game set on locations such as Corellia, with Han and Qi’ra racing in the stolen blue landspeeder against Patrol Troopers on their respective speeders, and White Worms gang thugs.
Another location (my own head-cannon) would be a street race with landspeeders around Cloud City, both at the hanger level and the city canopy level - buffeted by winds, up-draughts, and being chased by Cloud Cars, etc.
Now all this has got my nostalgic for the heady days of playing Super Star Wars, and careening across Tatooine doing who knows what, at what felt like breakneck speeds! lol!

I wouldn't read too much into, I don't really seem to start celebrating these kind of anniversaries until they hit 20 or 25.Nah, I'm not that old. And it's certainly true that there's rarely much fanfare for 10th movie anniversaries. So, did I take a bit of a cheap shot at TFA? Sure, I'll cop to that. A cheap shot for a cheap (script-wise) rehash of a flick.
That said, TFA did introduce Rey, and Rey is still presumed to star in a big new movie at some point, so I wouldn't have been surprised if Disney/Lucasfilm had tried to gin up some 10th anniversary fanfare, even something as modest as a brief theatrical re-release, maybe paired with an animated (or, heck, even live-action) short of a new Rey adventure. Or, if they're keeping the theatrical decks clear for Avatar, at least put such a short on D+.
All in all, Lucasfilm's utter lack of celebration of one of the highest-grossing movies of all time kinda smells like they know they made a turkey, and are hoping that Mando & Grogu and Starfighter will dig them out of their hole... from a certain point of view, of course.
I don't do anniversary screenings of movies like this. I see movies in theaters once, and that's enough, so if I'm going to spend my money on a seeing a movie in theaters, it's going to be for something I've never seen before.
The only times I've ever considered it is some of my local theaters $5 classics on Tuesday nights, and that's only because they're so cheap. And it would only before for something I absolutely love.
I revel in the anger That Crowd must be feeling right now.Much deserved.

That's where they'll fire her.
She knows good and well what she probably didn't do.
No, that's Joe Pesci.That's where they'll fire her.
The Force Awakens was released 10 years ago today. It doesn't remotely seem that long.
I don't blame them. Imagine being named That Crowd by your parents. It's basically sadism.
That's where they'll fire her.
Lol - it defo doesn’t seem like a good idea, however, it kinda ups the stakes / risks for me - and although it shouldn’t work on paper, I kinda want it to happen…
Strikes me as being like the flight and gliding training games in Breath of the Wild.
Now THAT'S a fan.
It will probably depend on where in the timeline it's set, but if it's late enough I could maybe see one of the characters popping up.
