Nostalgia is a powerful tool. It signifies an emotional attachment to something, and that's valuable in its own right. Games like Shovel Knight or Pillars of Eternity wouldn't have happened if some didn't hold a longing for the Good Ol' Days.

Pure; unabashed reverence for the original trilogy; Fun; interesting hero characters; A visual / audio blockbuster

Shallow progression; Faceless soldiers with little meaningful customization; Lacking in content

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. This single sentence has echoed throughout pop culture history for the past 30 years, and even those who haven't seen the films it's hard to deny that our history would be radically different from what it is today when it comes to entertainment.

EA provided AusGamers with flights and accommodation for the Star Wars Battlefront review event . It seems that DICE was destined to create a Star Wars Battlefront game. If you know the history, you should be able to appreciate the relationship that DICE has had, indirectly, with the Battlefront...
