"Star Wars: Battlefront--Satisfying"
Star Wars. Who hasn't seen a Star Wars movie without wishing that they were smoking Ewoks and battle droids? Now, with Star Wars: Battlefront, you can relive the classic battles.

In this game, there are several campaign missions, Historical Campaign and Galactic Conquest. The latter is more of a what-if scenario, allowing you to choose what side to conquer the galaxy with. However, there's really not much difference between the two, all are just about battling.

Each side gets different types of troops to be. The basics are a standard infantry troop, with a rapid-fire rifle, a heavy weapons troop with a rocket launcher, a sniper with a sniper rifle, a pilot with the ability to heal droids and vehicles, and some sort of special class, whether it be a jet-packed trooper or a Wookiee. Different troops have different advantages when it comes to maps. For example, a map with tons of vehicles would be a good place for a pilot.

Overall, Battlefront is a nicely made game, not enough to compare with Half-Life and Halo, but a nice game to have. The AI is okay, with your comrades sometimes being helpful, and sometimes just staring blankly into space to be bantha fodder. The game physics is odd, as it's in the Star Wars universe, but features wacky rag-doll physics. The graphics are excellent, along with the sound (was there ever a movie or game by LucasArts with bad sound?). The replay factor is somewhat weak, and the loading time somewhat long, but otherwise worth it.

"Space Odyssey Battlemania"
Space Odyssey Battlemania
This is going to be a short review.This is difintely one of my favorite multiplayer game.If you can think of Battlefield 1942 and quake 3 team arena and combine the 2 games into one this is very similar.The game play is closely related to battlefield 2 .But instead of WWII or modern day warfare era it takes place in a fictional futuristic space era.Instead of planes and helicopters.There is flying and non flying space vehicles something you would see in a Star wars movie.What I really liked about this game is the sound , music and graphics.You don't need a super fast Dual Processor computer and a $400.00 video graphic card in order to play the game.I have a ati radeon 9600Xt and the game runs great with the high video settings.The startup time is much faster than other newer games . Another thing I noticed is that the space vehicles are easier to control than the planes and helicopters of battlefield 1942 .There is also a single player mode where you play against bots.This game is most fun when playing multiplayer.Most of the time you are on the ground fighting unless you are fast enough to grab a vehicle before your team mates get them first ; But since it is such a super game, ground fighting is really enjoyable with the intense battles.There are tons of weapons to choose from .Weapons that remind me of the weapons in quake 3 arena,except more futuristic looking.I hope all pc games that will come out in 2007 and afterwards use this type or a similiar type of game engine,where you don't need a super fast computer system in order to play.For instance Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter ,Doom 3, Battlefield 2 hog so much memory it's ridiculous and the graphics are really not that much better "if any" than the graphics in Star Wars Battlefront.It seems like some game makers create games that require so much system resource that they want people to spend money to upgrade their computers.

"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.
