I never bought this, but did download the online demo. Was that supposed to impress me? ACK! I wouldn't pay good money for this game. Like the editorial review says, the graphics are Outdated (EXTREMELY) and flat. I expect more from RTS games these days with folks like westwood setting the bar. This looks like a game you might have considered playing five years ago. I guess if you are a hardcore fan you'll enjoy this, but I found the downsides to the game too much to consider shelling out any clams for the game. Gameplay is somewhat poor. Sounds quality is cheesy and sounds like it was lifted from a bad HBO copy of A New Hope.
The box looks sharp, but don't let it fool you, it isn't worth your time. Try JK II; Outcast instead and wait till they decide to make a real Star Wars RTS.
As simple as that !!

If you enjoyed the Episode IV, V, VI & I and waiting to enjoy Episode II & III (or even Episode VII, VIII & IX), you should buy this game. All you can do is take control of your Star Wars favour ...... as simple as that would drive you mad. Right?
Battlegrounds is derivitive and way over-rated

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds only redeeming feature is the basic Star Wars theme. For the street price of 44.99 the game is way overpriced, considering you can get the real thing for 40$, that is the revolutionary Age of Empires 2. Battlegrounds feels like a Star Wars mod for AofE2. The game may be worth purchasing for 20 bucks for Star Wars fans. Bottomline: It sucks.
Totally Awesome

Definetley Great. It's totally awesome.Don't Waste You Time On StarCraft or Comand and Conquer. Defenitley try Galactic Empire before anything else. The Make your own Scenario is wickedd. And if you have Windows Media Player put the cd in and go to "Audio cd" and listen to the soundtrack. It the BEST.
Best game of the decade!!!!

I was hoping this game....even though it is on the same engine as Age Of Empires 2.....would pull away from how slow and long AoE2 is. But no. Average game is like 45mins. I am more of a Star Craft player where you can beat someone in like 15mins....20 on avarage. Sure some game last an hour or 2 in SC but not ALL of them. I waited and waited for this game and even bought it somewhere in it's 1st month of shelf like.....disappointment.
another disapointment

I love the Star Wars games, I have almost all of them (excluding the elusive Rebellion) and from games like X-wing I've not to expect quite a lot. Unfortunately the latest load haven't been... well, good. They haven't been [bad], but they fail in comparison. I think it all started with X-wing Vs. Tie Fighter, story is obviously no longer present and voice acting [is not good]. This game is slow and boring, just like Age of Empires, of course if you like the mass unit no strategy, takes three hours to win kind of game, then you will love this.
well, well...

To the Aussie who was a little bit rude: if the game isn't out yet, how can you say it's gonna be good if the game isn't out yet? If a game like FOCOM was a lemon, and it has all the big anticipation like GBG, why should I write good things about a game similar to FOCOM ? FOCOM has a problem with compatibility with video/sounds cards, it has nothing to do with the specs of any PC, that's why everybody hated FOCOM. Try to understand first and then criticize about spelling, 'mate
To the others: Yes, I haven't played the game, but is sad that a great company like LucasArts cannot come up with something better than AOE2, perhaps when the game arrives, then all reviews would be valid or not...we shall see...
This game stinks

Don't be fooled by the looks of this sorry excuse for a game. I bought it and played it for 2 days and chucked it. It has the WORST!!!Graphics out of any game I've played. Might as well get Barbie Sea Adventures. Trust me on this one. it stinks.
This Game was BORING!...

I played this game. I have played a few other RTS games and this one really does not compare. I thought it was very dumb. I mean come on how can an infantry droid shoot over a wall?
The only plus to this game was that the campaigns had an ok story.
For a multiplayer RTS try Total Annilation.
