Several years ago, my siblings and I spent hours on our PlayStation 2 playing a game called Star Wars: Battlefront II. The game was a perfect culmination of two things we loved: Star Wars and video games. It was easily one of our favorite games based on a popular franchise.

New online and offline features that make the game more whole than its predecessor; characters and worlds from the Prequel and Sequel Trilogies are featured; level up system keeps things balanced for new players; graphics continue to look amazing

Physics are a little floaty; requires paid services for the majority of features (consoles only); lots of data needed to play

There was a lot of controversy around this game when it first launched becasuse EA had essentially made it pay to win with all of the micro transactions. Well I am happy to report that the only micro transactions are for cosmetics and you can unlock everything in the game just by playing it.

A PlayStation Plus account is necessary to use all features. The digital bonus items are a tiny advantage when beginning online play. Split screen in arcade mode is cool allowing 2 people to play together offline. Leveling up is a grind that is why it's 3 stars instead of 4.

PLEASE NOTE: After weeks of fan complaints, and the intervention of Disney, EA has switched off all microtransactions in Star Wars: Battlefront II. Although they will return, in altered form, at a later date. You can read more about the

Superb graphics and amazing attention to Star Wars detail; Starfighter Assault is excellent and the story mode is a good effort; Plenty of game modes

Whilst there is much to like about this game, it suffers from a fair selection of flaws - enough, perhaps to annoy more than entertain. Without hopefully giving too much away, the expansive outing starts with events just before the destruction of the Empire's second Death Star and takes us all the...

Star Wars Battlefront 2 hits all of the right notes in the heat of a pitched firefight. Blasters chirp, TIE Fighters scream, the orchestral accompaniment soars or crashes as the good guys or bad guys take the lead.

Xmas present that just hasn't grown old - husband & son love this - always something different to keep the same interest. You won't be disappointed if you're a Star Wars fan and it's better than the first!

This game does it. It has everything you want as a star wars fan. But the loot crates and daily logins just isn't right. Graphics are great, the sounds are great and battles are great. But I hate loot crates and that's why I gave it 4 stars.
