In the end, what matters to me is: is the game fun? Am I enjoying myself? Pretty graphics and tight controls only go so far; The Order 1886 is a testament to that. I can honestly say I'm having more fun with Battlefront than I have almost any other game this year, and to me, that's the most important metric of all. May the Force be with you.

I’ve presented the best way to view battlefront, as a complete game. If you ignore for a moment any price issues or early investments and simply look at the game now you have a great shooter experience in the Star Wars universe. With a sequel on the way this year coming packaged with a single player story and multiple eras, it’s worth picking up the original/season pass for cheap to get yourself excited and back into Star Wars spirit.

Star Wars Battlefront is a beautiful recreation of what it is like to be amidst the chaos in the fight against the darkside hampered by a distinct lack of singleplayer content and an absurd season pass.

Star Wars: Battlefront is probably the best multiplayer game in the saga, beating what the previous two games could accomplish. Sadly, no single-player campaign, in this way the attention to detail, characters and environments feel a bit wasted. Plenty of easter eggs to enjoy, specially if you leave the menu for a couple of minutes. Hopefully EA will implement an automatic rotation through different games modes, since many of them hardly have any players. A game you cannot miss if you are a Star Wars fan. Play it now though, being multiplayer only, i don't see this game having enough players for too long.

Star Wars Battlefront is yet another arcade shooter that Star Wars fan didn't quite expect as a successor of the critically-acclaimed Star Wars Battlefront II. With the lack of content, game modes, heroes, customization, space battles, and the prequel era – the game is quite a disappointment to Star Wars fans. Despite these negative factors of the game, visually Star Wars Battlefront is stunning. It brings the game to life and gives a half experience of what a true Star Wars game should be in the first place.

At the end of the day, Star Wars Battlefront is a well-made game that simply feels incomplete. Fans will love all the ways that it pays homage to our favorite series, and nothing compares to piloting iconic vehicles or force-choking Rebel scum as Lord Vader.

EA DICE succeeds in creating an easy to pick up and learn first person shooter, but this comes at a cost to depth of play and strategy.

Star Wars Battlefront is a game for the casual shooter fan. No one ever planned an attack, no one ever talked. So, if you're going into this game expecting a Star Wars skin on Battlefield, expect to be dissapointed, as there is no aspect of team play in this game. While I like a game I can just hop into every few months, I expected more from a franchise that I basically grew up with.

Whether you fight for the Rebel Alliance or you walk the path of the dark side, this game will keep you entertained for a long time to come. The force is strong with this one!

The visuals and audio in this game are top notch; I’ve never played a Star Wars game that feels more authentic than this.

Star Wars: Battlefront is a game for the truly devoted Star Wars fans—those who eat, sleep, and breathe the original trilogy. Battlefront captures the look, feel, and spectacle of the franchise and compiles it all into one fantastic shooter that will undoubtedly be played for years to come.

EA and DICE’s revival of Star Wars Battlefront struck all the right tonal and atmospheric chords. The polished visuals and attention to detail is impressive and the gameplay is smooth and exciting. However, the game lacks content and would have benefited from including the season pass in the core game from the start.
