    The game is an absolute mess, where to start?
    Well for one thing, the cut-scenes and graphics, normally graphics don't matter to me to much but they are just awful, not only that, but the cut scenes are hardly in full motion video,, it's some kind of lazy flashback style cut scene, isn't the point of the PSPs disc drive to be full motion?

    The campaign can be really frustrating and it is just underwhelming, sometimes when I am given a time limit to do something, or an objective to protect something, I can't do it without trial and error sometimes because i'm either to far away or the friendly unit dies too fast.

    Now maybe taking this all aside, it's considered a mediocre battlefront on the go, but the real rotten core of this game is the camera, it is atrocious, it always centers to the screen when your're not moving it, which makes it hard to aim because you always gotta jerk the camera around and there is no way to disable this feature.

    Rebellion studios deserves the golden turd award for this, did you know that the worst metacritic rating on Steam is a Rebellion game? Did you know that most of their games have negative reviews by both critics and regular gamers? This is a middle finger to the fans like my self who adored battlefront 1 and 2, Someone at Lucasarts needs to lose their job, clearly, they and Rebellion have no sense of what the fans want, I will not be buying a new game from either anytime soon.

    Oh and just for your information, i got this game on its release.    … Expand

    A serious step backwards in graphics and gameplay. The maps are bland, the lock on system aweful, and MP average at best. Space is the only saving grace for a title that could have been a huge hit for PsP. Very dissapointing.

    But while multiplayer rocks, the appeal of the campaign and character customization lasts about as long as Darth Maul's screen time. [Nov 2007, p.122]

    The mulitplayer is simply outstanding. [Nov 2007, p.83]

    Is it perfect? No, not by a long shot, but the blah graphics and love-it or hate-it gameplay are overshadowed by the customization options, extensive online modes and the satisfaction that comes from taking out an AT-AT while on foot.
