Great mindless action, terrific two-player fun - Reviewed on 2007-11-05
This is a First-Person-shooter where you can pick from a large selection of roles, including CIS, Rebel, Stormtrooper, and Wookie, each with different weapons classes and battlefield tools. Also, you have the opportunity to commandeer a satisfyingly large selection of vehicles, from the painfully slow Spider Tank to the recklessly fast Speeder-for-one, each with different weapons. The twist is in the "scoring" system, a twist that makes all the difference. Each segment of play is a battle with an equal number of forces on each side. The AI of each side eliminates the other with roughly equal success, so what you do will ultimately determine the outcome. You may win by eliminating the opposing forces, or by capturing and holding each spawn point for 20 seconds. The latter is almost impossible without doing the former, but that's ok. It's fun to advance, hold a spawn point, take out some more guys, or use your rocket launcher against vehicles, or kick back and snipe. There are so many different levels, each requiring different tactics, that this is a real treat. Two-player pvp mode is the most intense, as you watch the numbers at the top of your screen, representing your forces and those of your enemy, whittle down toward victory or defeat. The cooperative mode almost guarantees success against the AI enemy. It would be good if they made the coop mode a little more challenging. Overall, just a lot of good, crazy fun, and light on the gibs.
