Review Based on Playstation 2 Demo (Endor)

I've played the Endor demo and I can say with 100% conviction that Star Wars Battlefront will be THE must have game of the year. John Williams' music is there in all its glory as well as all the Star Wars visuals and sound effects. Intuitive controls, excellent framerate, and killer graphics and animation makes this the most addictive demo I've ever played. It's a rush to go from running to driving a 'chicken walker' to manning a ground-mounted gun to flying a speeder bike. A bonus is being able to set the game as a 1st person or third person shooter -- both work great. I only found one bug in the demo (my character sunk to his knees as I ran up a large tilting log (though I regained my feet when I reached the top))-- everything else was first-rate. This is really stacking up to be a fantastic game. I've been defeated every single time, but I'm ready to go back to the forest for another round anytime.
Anyway, a little preview based on the demo.

This is just the kind of star wars game i been waiting for.I don't really see where all the reviews that say the controls are bad and stuff like that are coming from.I got good at the controls after 1 hour. the only bad part i can really say about it is that turn the ships around takes a while and it is challenging at the beginning of the game[when you first get it].good luck and may the force be with you.

Now, if Trek fans had a game like this...

... I'd be all set.

People complain about how simplistic this game is; that's true, but if you consider the fact that these new movies are essentially 2-hour toy commercials, you're already aware of the need for this simple game.

The only complaint that I really can make about the game itself is the frequent appearance of Jar Jar Bush-- excuse me-- Binks. How many times can we stand to see this annoying character running in the line of fire, yelling MEESA GO BOOM NOW before we WANT him to go boom?

My favorite section is the Conquests, which bear slight resemblance to the battle play in Masters of Orion. It allows you to think about your tactics before being thrown into the action.

I haven't figured out how to steal the enemies' ships yet (doesn't seem possible), but that would be a good bonus. Imagine an AT AT stomping all over stormtroopers who are trying to support it, not knowing that Chewie's at the controls... LOL ;)

9.75 outa 10.

The BEST Star Wars game EVER

Ths Game is awsome!!!! If some one asked me to rate this game on a scale of one to ten, I would give it a number much higher than just ten! The graphics are GREAT! And I think it is a great idea to make a Star Wars game where you can play in every episode! (except for episode 3) And it is a great idea to let the player play as The Empire OR The Rebels. It is also a good idea to let the player ride in (or on) any vehicle or animal possible!
Overall, I give this game the highets raiting imaginable.

The best starwars game ever!

This is an awsome game.You start off a mission by choosing a place to spawn from.Then you choose your unit.Each time you die you can select a new respawn point.

The downsides to this game is that you can't be a jedi.That is pretty much the only bad thing.

The good things are that you can get into pretty much every thing you find including the AT-AT and the AT-TE. You can even take over something that is occupied by your own teemate.

Pretty much your main objective is to kill your enemies and to capture command posts. Command posts are the places you respawn from.Without those your teem will gradually loose reinforcements which you need to win the battle.

Overall I give this game a 5 star rating. The graphics are awsome too.As well as the music and the sound effects.

By far, the best Star Wars game I have ever played...

In the past, Star Wars games have ranged from totally unfun(Jedi Power Battles) to fun(Rebel Strike and Bounty Hunter). Well, this game exceeds every Star Wars game before it with great graphics, gameplay, and sound.
You are able to fight during the Clone Wars and Galactic Civil War as everything, from Republic clonetroopers, Dark Troopers, Wookies, and even Destroyer Droids! You can also battle on 95% of planets seen in the movies from Mos Eisly to a planet from the upcoming movie, Revenge of the Sith, Kashyyyk, the wookie planet. You can also pilot nearly every vehicle seen in the movies, from the speeder bike to the fearsome AT-TE, AT-AT, and Homing Spider Droid. To add to this fact, you can even steal the enemy's ships under their noses! There is nothing funner than being a super battle droid and stealing a Jedi Starfighter!
This is such a great game I can't stop. Certain things, such as a small combat arena for vehicles sometimes get in the way, but this is really the only thing that is annoying to me. It also has splitscreen, where you can either play against a friend or alongisde a friend.
This game is a game worthy of the Star wars name and every true Star Wars fan out there MUST either rent the game or buy it(like I did). go to best buy and buy it now!!!!

DO buy this game

this is an awesome game with a lot of features. Even if you eventually get sick of the gameplay (highly unlikely), there are unlockable features that have concept art, movie and game stills, and more. The only hard part of the game is learning the controls, but after a day or so, you'll get it. You can choose the difficulty of levels, so there is always a challenge. You can instruct your nearby soldiers to do a series of commands, and the game makes use of all the controls possible on the dualshock 2 controller. I give the game five stars for both fun and overall gameplay.

I rate this awesome, near perfect sweet hunbunn of a game 100 stars! Shootin' gungans, ewoks, rebels, geonosians, and wookiees! Like a breath o' fresh air! Play as: Dark Trooper, Sniper, Super Battle Droid, and Jet Trooper. Those are the best guys. Look at my review for Lord of the Rings The Third Age and I'll tell you to buy this, worth 10 rentals and $50.

Go Star Wars! Go lucasfilm! Go lucasarts!

For all y'all star wars fans out there.
Please show your "fanliness" and write an e-mail to Star Wars (e-mail found on lucasarts website) and ask (or beg if you wish) lucasarts&//lucasfilm to make more Star Wars movies, games, toys, and collectibles! If you didn't already, check out the Star Wars Battlefront 2 website at swbattlefront 2. The site gets updated often! Not that often though. Somewhere around 1 - 2/3 weeks for an update. ALSO, if your not into "shooter" games, also check out Star Wars Empire at War at the lucasarts website, games, pc section. Thank you for reading my review. Let's all hope for more Star Wars Movies in the future. I would see every one of them. Would you?
