Battlefront for the PC is a good game. Don't get me wrong. The battles are fun. And the single player is surprisingly both challenging and enjoyable. But it's multiplayer where this game really falls flat. The battles are much more compact and crazy than the Battlefield series or Join Operations game. This is both good and bad. In Battlefield vietnam, you can single handedly defend or take a flag, and feel like you are an important part of the battle. In Battlefront, you never feel like an important part of a battle. You feel more like every time you spawn you are thrown into the middle of a war zone with blasts flying in from all directions and you struggle to survive. The single player offers up campaigns themed around the movies that are fun to play through a couple times. They even have movie clips before battles in single player to help get you into the battle. The vehicles are very very powerful, and people on the map always rush for where they spawn because of their power. Most will tell you they are over-powered. And well, yeah, they are. Thankfully though, you can't actually capture a flag while inside a vehicle. The sound and graphics are top-notch excellent. But if you're looking for good multiplayer, turn away from battlefront. I found msyelf playing single player instead of multiplayer. In multiplayer, you're frames per second is maxed at 30, but often dips down to under 5 frames per second. Also, the interface for choosing a server is terrible. Don't expect to know going into a game how the ping is, and expect every server to have a bad ping. Even on a 3-megs-per-second broadband connection with a 2.8ghz pentium 4 with a gig of ram and a 9800xt video card... the multiplayer is normally choppy. On the other hand, if you're looking for a very fun single-player experience that makes you feel like a soldier in the movies, or if you're a hard-core star wars fan and you're willing to wait for a patch to fix things such as the frame rate and menue interface, you should give battlefront a try.
Before I begin, I must say this: Star Wars: Battlefront doesn't even try to implement state of the art, advanced gameplay mechanics. For me, though, this isn't the point of the game, in fact, if you buy this game expecti... Read Full Review
Now this game is not very bad. For 20$ this game should be bought. Rent it if you don't like Star Wars as much you should rent it. Overall the game very short can be beaten in day at the most. Thier is another mode of ga... Read Full Review
