I even played a fun and silly Western RPG that probably nobody here ever heard of called Boot Hill.
And yet in all that time, I've never played a Star Wars RPG. God knows why, sounds fun as hell. Heck, I even had another player who was basically a Jedi created under some infinitely flexible character creation system, though which one I've forgotten. But "Star Wars roleplaying game"? Nope, never done that...

It's a hell of a lot of fun if it's set up right and the GM knows the universe well enough to make it fun.
BIggest problem I run into is that resources are typically not great... you have to get really creative to get around the lack of cool/interesting monsters that are actually a challenge.
Force users can really break the crap out of the game.
My game was a Legacy-era campaign. Epic/destiny/etc. I had a great time with it. Especially trolling the hell out of them by continually popping Bantha Rawk into the picture and having him drop the classic "it's a hard galaxy" line.
