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.
