Multiplayer beta out this weekend. Not too bad, but still feels like Battlefield Lite. Full game will include a full single player campaign as well (something the first one didn't have), so I may grab the game anyway.
Favorite mode is still Starfighter Assault; there's just something about flying an X-Wing that's irresistible to me.

That's Star Wars Battlefront in a nutshell, though. People keep saying how the new games are nothing like the old games, but they're not really all that different. Nostalgia vs new, nostalgia almost always wins. Still, I wouldn't give LucasArts a red penny on principle. If you went to a restaurant where it's rumored that there's a piece of poop in your food 1/5th of the time, would you really be surprised if you got pooped? Would you pay for it? That's kind of how I feel about LucasArts, people keep complaining about what publishers are putting out and ignoring what people are saying, but they keep paying them for their games that they complain about. :o The last good Star Wars game was Jedi Academy.
At least Ubisoft is finally on the verge of collapse. Speaking of Ubi, They made a deal to purchase back something like 40% of their shares, in an attempt to go private. Because clearly the issue with Ubisoft is that they are a publicly traded company, and that's why they're going broke... :popcorn:
Bought this on the cheap, and for the price the story mode was incredible. Also enjoying online.
