The commercial for the game looked pretty cool and convinced me to buy it. I like StarWars Battlefront, the first-person shooter and I love the StarCraft and WarCraft games and this game appeared as a combination of the two. It is. I'll play this game, it looks great and all, but it just isn't as much fun as you'd want. Many features are much cooler than WarCraft, but despite that, it's not as fun. As soon as the new StarCraft comes out, I'll stop playing Empire At War entirely.
Unfortunately Starcraft: Ghost has been delayed for years and that'll be a FPS. It looks great from screen shots and movies. I'm afraid for when they come out with a true sequel to Starcraft because I remember that the original took like 2 years from my life.
I remember you playing Tie Fighter back in the day and getting all excited because you got to escort Vader's ship. He even spoke highly of your piloting skills.
I have Battlefront 2 and I play it alright. I can beat the game.
I never had luck playing online, though. I have a cable modem that usually performs well but not with games. I'm grateful since it keeps me from wasting time.
