Star Wars: Battlefront

Is this the game that can beat Star Wars: Battlefront I and II? In short no it isn't. This game had so much potential to provide hours of fun game-play that you can experience while being part of the Star Wars universe but unfortunately it falls flat in a mere 2 hours. First things first, the game looks gorgeous. It could arguably beat most games that have been realised on the this generation. One of the main competitors for the title is Ryse: Son of Rome and we know the shortcomings of that game as well. Right of the bat you'll realise that the game has been created near perfectly for example Endor looks stunning from the massive trees populating the map to the riverbed following along the ground. The Walkers look amazing and so do the explosions, pretty much everything about this game looks stunning. Moving onto the sound which is again like the graphics amazing and fans should be pleased. The lasers shooting out the barrel of the guns sound great. The soundtrack is fantastic but the voice overs aren't that great. I'm pretty sure only Anthony Daniels (C3PO) was the only actor from the films to come and do a voice over for the game. Another notable inclusion is Sam Witwer who played Star Killer in The Force Unleased. I'm not saying the voice overs aren't good. They are but they're not perfect. Now onto the bad points of the game the map design is lacklustre, they just seem generic and like no effort has been put into them. They aren't too memorable either. The guns have very little recoil so there isn't much skill involved with kills. The customisation is very limited, you can only choose from a list of preset faces and if you want a scout trooper you'll have wait till over rank 30. In a Star Wars you would expect at least one mission/mode to take place in space but nope the closet thing you have is hoping in a X-Wing or Tie Fighter etc and having dog fights in the sky but for some reason space wasn't included. The only worth while mode is Walker Assualt but even that can get boring. We all know this game will sell and EA knows this so they have already started working on the sequel. Star Wars Battlefront isn't worth the money you pay at the moment. My recommendation is wait for a massive sale.

Star Wars battlefront is a great game Great weapons Great explosions Great vehicles Great Heroes Great Villains Great Missions Great Online Modes Great Offline Modes Definitely worth the money! Get it! The Heroes and Villains are amazing to play as, although there could be more than just 6 (Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Leia Organa, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Bobba Fett) There is loads of great game modes like Walker Assault, Cargo, Supremacy, Blast, Droid Run, Hero Hunt, Fighter Squadron, Drop zone and Heroes vs Villains. There is only 11 blasters and 23 star cards with not much customisation for weapons it could be SLIGHTLY better, but over all great. The Battle of Jakku will be AMAZING, with an extra 2 MAPS and it will be so good. I would definitely buy this game it is so worth the money and you will love it!

The graphics and the gameplay make this game but everything else is lacking content. There is some fun to be had but the more you play it the more repetitive it gets and eventually it just gets boring. Compared to the original battlefront this game is just a disappointment and that's why its a 6/10. Its not bad game but it should of been a lot better than it was.

Star Wars: Battlefront isn't the deepest game and the leveling mechanics are thus a bit pointless but high level players won't be able to overrun new players with better gear thanks to that. I thus managed to become a MVP within the first hour of play and i don't mind the lack of a campaign due to Dice's mostly bad track record.The new novel "Battlefront: Twilight Company" fulfills that role just fine and there is nothing wrong with having a focus either. The whole experience itself is more importantly the most force accurate in the history of Star Wars games and my biggest gripes are fixable balancing issues and a few glitched achievements (The horror!). The graphics and sound are further some of the best on the market and the sense of scale is awe-inspiring. The amount of modes/maps is fine enough and the sequel is destined to make this game absolute but EA started on the right note with the license.

Star Wars Battlefront III or rather the uninspired "reboot" of the original two games, shows DICE and EA pumped all their resources into making the game nice and pretty but lack in the game play department. Perhaps instead of taking a glorified field trip to Skywalker Ranch and all the filming locations of the Star Wars films, DICE would have better spent their time playing the original two Battlefront games and refining all the fine elements from them and weeding out the weaker elements. But instead they fall back onto making the game like every other first-person-shooter to have come out in the last several years. With half of the worlds as the original two Battlefront games with no first-player campaign mode, (Galactic Conquest, Story Mode, Instant Action) and most of the actual meaty content relegated to online play, assuming you can shell out the money for XBox Live.

The game's main modes are glorified tutorial quests, survival campaigns and death matches all feeling so underwhelming and just not fun. Star Wars has a plethora of planets, worlds, concepts to use but DICE went with the familiar few with the addition of one or two more to make it look like they're actually trying. There is aerial combat in the game but it's very stilted and just kind of boring; though I never cared much for the space battles in the original Battlefront. Oh but there is more content if you give EA Games even more money for a "season pass." In other words pay twice for the price of one game! I had little hope when I heard EA was going to be the one behind this game and the end result was exactly as a I expected, dull, inspired Call of Duty Clone catered to the annoying little kids who have been raised on Call of Duty. The missions are dull most of the content is online and multiplayer because apparently EA thinks nobody plays games alone anymore. The graphics are pretty but that's no surprise there and the game does control very well and shockingly you actually get the option to play first or third person. Battlefront is garbage, the originals were far better and it's hard to say why EA couldn't stick to that concept.
