My only complaint about this game, is somehow the community hasn't rated it Overwhelmingly positive.

Easily the best Star Wars game.
Ever. Shame they never released another Battlefront game that improved on the forumla laid down by 1 and 2.

Totally recommend!

Only today did I find out that my childhood game from the awesome PS2 and Xbox Original was on Steam? For any who's looking to buy this, I recommend you do, only £6 which is a deal compared to PS2 and Xbox copies which are a bomb to buy because they cost around £30. Oh and if you do decide to buy this really, REALLY, REEEALY good game, download a custom map called 'Tatooine At War', it's awesome!

You could spend +£90 on getting everything EA's battlefront, or you could spend £6.99 for a game with more and better content.

The games actual mutiplayer servers went down with gamespy's ship, but there are guides on how access servers set up by fans. This is a game you won't regret buying.

Star Wars Battlefront II (2005)
-9.99
Star Wars Battlefront EA (2015)
-59.99

EA went backwards, not forward.

1/6 the price, triple the content, mods, single player, campaign, instant action, galactic conquest.
One of the greatest games out there and even now the gameplay holds up. Graphically improved with mods there's barely anything to complain about. One of the best games I've ever played.

Star Wars: Battlefront II is a 2005 first- and third-person shooter video game based on the Star Wars film franchise. Developed by Pandemic Studios and published by LucasArts it is a sequel to 2004's Star Wars: Battlefront and the second game in the Battlefront series.The game features new vehicles, characters, game mechanics, maps, and missions compared to the original Battlefront. Unlike its predecessor, Battlefront II features a more narrative-based campaign, retelling portions of the Star Wars story from the point of view of a veteran Imperial stormtrooper, reminiscing about his tour of duty in service of both the Galactic Republic and as part of the Galactic Empire. Gameplay additions over Battlefront include the use of Jedi, additional game modes such as hero assault, and objective-based space battles.

The general objective in most missions is to eliminate the enemy faction. Like Star Wars Battlefront, the game is split into two eras, the Clone Wars and the Galactic Civil War. You have the ability to choose between six classes during gameplay. Four class types are common to all factions; infantry, heavy weapon, sniper and engineer. In addition to the four standard classes, each faction has two unique classes which unlock by scoring a predetermined number of points. For the Rebellion faction, the Bothan Spy and the Wookiee; for the Empire, The Officer and The Dark Trooper; for the Republic, the Commander and the Jet Trooper; and for the CIS, the Magnaguard and the Droideka.

Battlefront II contains only one campaign, called Rise of the Empire. This set of missions is presented as the narration of a veteran of the 501st Legion, known as Vader's Fist, beginning with an attack on the planet Mygeeto during the Clone Wars and ending with the assault on Hoth as depicted in The Empire Strikes Back. There are a total of 18 missions, four of which are optional space missions.

Overall I would give STAR WARS Battlefront II a score of 8/10, it is a fun and entertaining game that doesn't have very much problems and the instant action with the bots is just awesome. Having played DICE's new STAR WARS Battlefront, I decided to go back and try the originals and I realized how much better they were, no customization and ranks, just pure fun. So if you're looking for a fun STAR WARS game I would recommend this as it just beats any other!.
