A fun game, but too repetative

Star Wars Battlefront is a great game, and I recommend it to any fans of the first person shooter genere or Star Wars. Like in Battlefield 1942, you can choose from 5 troop classes for each team. There are 4 teams, which are: the rebels, the imperials, the republic, and the CIS. For each team, there are 4 basic troop classes which are: soldier, scout, anti-armor and pilot. Then, there is one unique class. For example, the rebel's fifth class is a wookie smuggler. The one problem with this game is that it is repetative. Once you have played all the areas, you get bored. There is a battlefield 2 comming out though, and you should look into that too.

What is wrong with some of you people????

This is a great online game! At least it is for the PC. I admit it is not the greatest game ever, but it is fun.

Coolness

I love this game so much! It doesn't seem like a T (Teen) game at all. I am 7. The violence is not bloody or scary. You can choose your player...you can choose if you want to be the dark side or the light side. It's mostly easy, just a little hard. It's easy to learn how to play. If you are a beginner you should play as a single player (instead of multi). If you play in the city Darth Vader will join the battle. It worth the money, if you like Star Wars. It's a great game!

One of my favorites- cheap price too!

This game is one of the best games I have ever played. It has awesome AI, descent graphics, cool maps, lots of vehicles, and many units to choose from.

First of all the AI is great. All the enemies you face are hard to beat. When I play instant action battles,( battles that you can just play right away )I win 3 out of 10 games. It's just like when you are a soldier class with a blaster rifle and you spot an enemy, and start shooting at that enemy, that guy that you are firing at turns around right away and takes you out with a pistol! Even if your strafing! It gets pretty infuriating, but it does produce a considerable challenge. Overall: The AI is tough to kill

Then there are the maps. There are quite a few environments to choose from, including Kashyyyk. Half the maps you can get vehicles. Not only ground vehicles but starships too. Lots of the maps are the average Star Wars planets ie, Hoth, Endor, Tatooine etc. But you also get planets that aren't mentioned in the movies too much, like Rhen Var ( one of my favorites ),and... That's pretty much the only unique map that I can think of. But anyway, The maps are cool.

The vehicles are awesome. What I really like is that you can fly starships in the atmosphere, something that they did not allow you to do in Battlefront 2. GRRRRRRR! Flying the snowspeeders are fun, trying to take down the Imperial walkers on Hoth. You can get into speeder bikes and zoom all around on Endor while on the other hand you can do some serious dogfighting with Jedi star fighters and droid star fighters over Bespin platforms. Or you could get into a Tie Bomber and start bombing the heck out of some wookies on Kashyyyk islands. Hey, Geonosis is cool too, with Republic gunships flying all over the place shooting Droidekas with their missles. Overall: The vehicles are so cool.

Then the units are the actual guys you get to play as. They are the soldier class, the rocket launcher class, the sniper class, the pilot class, and special class. There are 4 factions to play as: CIS (droids), Republic (clones), Empire (stormtroopers), and rebels. Some of the special units are interesting, like the dark trooper and the jet trooper who both can use their jet packs to fly. They are not mentioned in the movie but they add unique flavor to the game. Overall: You'll be familiar with most of the units and all of them are pretty cool.

The graphics and sound are good too. I just wish there would be lots music when you fight in the instant action mode.

Overall: The game is great and fun. Definately worth the 20 bucks.

The force is with this game.

In Battlefront, you assume the role of a soldier fighting either in the Clone Wars or the Galactic Civil War. There are four teams in Battlefront, they are the Rebels, the Imperials, the Clones and the Droids. However, you can only have the Clones fighting the Droids or the Rebels fighting the Imperials.
All the teams are different, but they all have one similarity, their soldiers. What I mean by this is that each team has a basic trooper usually armed with a blaster rifle with a rapid rate of fire, a blaster pistol, and a few grenades.
Then they all have snipers equipped with a sniper rifle, a pistol and grenades.
They also have anti-vehicle soldiers equipped with missile launchers, a pistol and grenades.
There are pilots with a pistol and grenades and they are the best at piloting vehicles.
And finally, the teams each have their special unit, these classes vary in weapons and equipment. For instance, the Rebel special unit is a Wookie, armed with a bowcaster, a grenade launcher, and grenades, while the Droid special unit is a Destroyer Droid with a personal shield and two repeating blasters instead of arms.
And then there's also some strategy in the game too. For instance, if your fellow soldiers are battling a large number of enemy troops, and the enemy command posts are unprotected, should you aid your comrades or seize the opportunity to capture the unguarded command posts?
Command posts are certain points on the battlefield that you can capture. If you capture a command post you can reenter the battle at that point the next time you die and if you capture all the command posts and hold them for fifteen seconds you win. The other way you can win is if you simply totally eliminate the enemy army.
Bottom line is, if you like Star Wars and you like shooters, get this game. if you don't like Star Wars or shooters, give it a shot anyway.

A great game. One of my favorites.

I thought this was a fantastic game. It offers you many more oppertunities than other Star Wars games, and is fantastic for burning off time and just having a good time. I recommend this game for any Star Wars lover. Even though it may seem so, it is not very complex or hard. Just a fun game in every way.

This is an extremely fun game, but bypass it for Battlefront II

If you've read the other reviews, you'll already have a firm understanding of BF's glories and weaknesses. To recap them: the graphics are stellar, the controls are well-arranged and easily learned, the AI is decent but by no means invincible, the single player mode is rather disconnected, your character and vehicular options are many, and in the end, you will surely end up complementing yourself for purchasing such an enjoyable game.

However, with the introduction of SW: Battlefront 2, buying this game for online play will surely be a bad mistake. It may be more attractive than it's counterpart because of its lower price and more conservative system requirements, but you will be one lonely Star Wars buff in cyberspace if you believe that the Battlefront I fanbase will remain the same in the wake of BF 2. You will have a difficult time finding multiplayer opponents for this game at the time, so I would suggest that you either upgrade or pay the extra twenty bucks for BF II.

Simply Boring.

What can I say except this game is simply boring. The novelty of it being a Star Wars game was over in a few minutes. The graphics would be great, if it had been released a few years ago (like 5 year agos). Same with the game play. Compared to even Half Life 1 or some of the other first person shooters, this game is more like Red Faction. The game play very repetitious and just boring. The graphics are sub par. The vehicles are cool looking but that is it and driving them gets very old fast.

Save your money and try Half Life 2, UT2004, or even Half Life 1.
