Glad I skipped Battlefront II.
As much as I feel DICE have done beautiful-looking, authentic work with the Battlefront license, I actually, just a little bit, kind of want them to lose it and it be given to a non-EA studio. Heck, why reinvent the wheel? LucasFilm have the rights to the source code for the original games, and they could easily assign that code to a studio to give it a ton of new features and upgrades. Then update the animations and model quality. Boom: a Battlefront that is both new and faithful.

Honestly Dice I trust. I have 100% faith it was EA that forced a business model into the game that ruined the experience. In the end Disney didn't like the backlash that came from that.

This could be a lesson for EA, but I don't think they'll learn anything from it.

I've been playing SW games for a while, but really got into them recently with Battlefront (xbox one). Out of all of the SW games I have played, this one makes me feel more like I am actually IN the Star Wars universe than any of the others. I agree, it does have some issues (but what games doesn't), but right now I am really enjoying it. I am not usually a fan of shooters, and rarely play anything on MP, but lately, I have been on this one at least a few hours every day.

I am also looking into getting Battlefront 2. For those of you that have played both, how would you compare the two of them in terms of features, especially MP?

I am curious to know what other SW games people in here have played. This is what I have in my collection at the moment...

Ep. 1: Jedi Power Battles (PS1)
Ep. 3: ROTS (PS2)
Battlefront II (PS2 version)
The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels (Wii)
LEGO SW: TSC (360, Wii)
LEGO SWIII: The Clone Wars (360)
The Force Unleashed (PS2, 360, Wii)
The Force Unleashed 2 (360)
Battlefront (xbox one)

Battlefront II has a much better single player component (Team Deathmatch, and Space TDM, both with custom options), though the large maps aren't available offline yet. Granted it had a rocky start with the progression being tied to the loot crate system, but it's starting to improve (a new progression system and cosmetics-only lootboxes). The online isn't too bad either.

As for other games I've played, I've played Lego Star Wars TFA, which is pretty good if not a bit dragged out. I've played Episode I The Phantom Menace, which to be honest is a poor man's Tomb Raider in Star Wars. Jedi Power Battles was definitely better.

Highly recommend the KotOR games if you want to feel like you're in the Star Wars universe.

The Jedi Knight games are definitely worth a look too.

The one on GameBoy Advance waayyyy back then? I played it. One of the first, or the first, Nintendo game I played. I know...depressing. Might have been the first video game I'd played too. I honestly don't remember if I played games in the 1990s.

There were two games based on The Phantom Menace. I'm wondering if he means this one:

I honestly loved this one to death.
I dont really know what it was but i really really liked it.

I must say in general that i like a lot of the star wars game that might not be for everybody.
The Pod Racer one, the fighting game, the obi-wan game etc.

Had a blast with my brother while playing the Revenge of the Sith game together.
