    Battlefront scratches that itch for Star Wars wish fulfillment, but when the twinkle leaves your eye, there's not much left to discover. Try it.

    Its old-school simplicity doesn't always mesh with its attempts to bring those ideas into 2015, and it lacks some of those back-of-the-box bullet points that most modern AAA shooters wouldn't be caught dead without...That said: This is a game where you crest a frozen ridge on the surface of Hoth and see a thousand lasers turn the sky into a disco and an AT-AT into scrap metal. If a little of the fat has to be trimmed for more people to have that experience, then blaster holes for bullet points seems like a fair trade.

But struggles to push the boundaries of what could have been.

    The main problem with the game is that it doesn't embody the same spirit that Star Wars Battlefront was capable of over 10 years ago. To which most people will respond "it is a completely different game" to which i say, if that were the case "why does it hold the name then", the answer to this question to make money of nostalgia.

Lots ofThis game has been one of my biggest disappointments in 2015. There is a huge lack of content, and the game play just isn't that fun. Lots of people are saying that it's just a Battlefield re-skin, but sadly the game would be better if it was.
