Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Support the Rise of the Empire!
I was really hesitant to get this game after playing "Battlefront I". However, I got a good recommendation for it and praise that it was far superior to the first. That's pretty much exactly what I wanted to hear. "Battlefront I" is really cool in concept, but it was lacking a ton. Co-op was practically useless, too fast, and virtually no story. It was just boring! Luckily just about all these misgivings I had for "Battlefront I" were fixed in "Battlefront II".

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bringing the battle home...
Battlefront was a great idea. Take all the best battles of the Star Wars movies, and drop players right in the middle where they can team up against each other in squads feel like they're a part of the movies. That game was good. This one is better. Pushing the Xbox about as far as it can go graphically (and even farther on the awesome 360 where resolution is greatly increased), this time around not only do you get to be in the battles from Star Wars, you get space battles and play-time as heroes and ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just what my son wanted
Frankly, I find this game a little boring, but then I'm not into the shoot 'em up type games. However my son asked for this for Christmas and he is happy with it, which is why I gave it a 5-star overall rating. I first read other reviews on Amazon, where I learned that in Battlefront II, some of the problems with Battlefront I were resolved and I was glad for the advice when I went to purchase. What I do like about this game is that you can play split screen so four players can play at once. The programmers ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great Star Wars immersion
The game provides a very entertaining first person shooter experience. The campaigns are short, well directed and do not involve highly complex maps, so the difficulty level is in the action volume vs. the navigation. The ability to use vehicles is a nice feature, but the space battles are bit too difficult to control. A fine game for a beginner or intermediate gamer. Multiplayer in split screens is quite fun, but less cooperative than in other games.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great game.. So good on PS2 i had to get it for my 360
Well my title sums it up. I luved the game on PS2. When I bought an Xbox 360 i just really wanted to get bak to playing it and the 30 secs it took to switch to my PS2 and remember the controls took too much from me. Game play is a bit faster and the challenges ( enemy AI) is smarter. So it's like i'm playing it again for the 1st time.

I grabbed Battle Front 1 and 2 for xbox bc they were so cheap.
