I really enjoy how they have went back to a system like the old battlefront. Throughout playing matches you get additional units and gear to use based upon you score or how well your contributing. The single player campaign is great. Its very interesting playing from the empire side as you progress through a story in which takes place during return of the jedi. Can't wait to see what the season pass has in store.

There’s mixed reviews on this game which I can understand. Yes it’s very “pay to win”, sure the campaign is short, the complaints are not out of line. But, looking past some of its flaws, the positives vastly outweigh the negatives. I didn’t get this game expecting game of the year, I got this game because I love Star Wars and I love EA multiplayer games (Battlefield). When you get into a game, you feel like you’re in a Star Wars movie. The sights, sounds and combat are incredible. The maps are massive with so much going on in the background, packed with 40 players. X-wings and TIE fighters battling above you, Walkers shooting their massive lasers at you, fire coming from empire soldiers on all fronts, Darth Vader chasing you though the caves on Hoth, then you come out of a cave and a TIE fighter suicide crashes into you. It’s such a thrill! Then you become a Jedi and you feel unstoppable. Using the force to freeze everyone in front of you then slashing through them all. It’s so rewarding after all the hard work you put into the objective’s to finally play as one. I prefer this hero system better, instead of a random drop on the map that players rushed to and only one of them getting the hero crate. This system rewards you for playing the objective, not just playing for kills. Which is great if you’re not the best at killing people, you’ll still have a chance to become a hero. The campaign I thought was amazing. Yes it was very short but you do get emotionally invested in it and it ends leaving you statisfied despite its length. I won’t give away any spoilers but it is worth the 4-6 hours. Over all, as I said I got this game because I love Star Wars and this game does the perfect job of making you feel like you’re immersed in the galaxy far far away. It does have its flaws but for the most part, it’s an incredible game with a lot of great updates on the way. Hope this review helps some of you on the fence, if you love Star Wars like I do, give it a shot.

This is a good buy. The single player campaign is good, the multi-player is very enjoyable and there's even an arcade mode to play around in. Plus it looks fantastic on the One X and the sound is phenomenal.
