Star Wars: Empire at War

Yet Another Silly Game

User Rating: 4.1 | Star Wars: Empire at War PC

By september_basic | Review Date: October 27, 2006

This game sold for around fifty dollars. It is not worth more than five, despite graphical representations. Empire at War is clumsy, poorly structured, with pisspoor game options. I wasted good, real money on this and the gameplay is barely more than moving pawns and expending funds for a limited set of buildings.

Instead of purchasing this game, purchase Rome: Total War or wait til LucasArts has new and capable management. Living proof that the best a Scientologist can do is produce raw sewage.

If there is room for improvement in this game, it should try all the more to emulate the Total War series and even to surpass it, if it can.
