Which of you slaaaaags is getting Battlefront and has Live then?

Me thinks we should all get together on Live and play all the battles from the original trilogy at some point. Not particuarly fussed about the prequels though I would like to kick some Ja Ja Binks ass around the place.

Only 1 week till the game should be in my hands, will hopefully be filling the online gap that the crappy Burnout 3 servers left.

Definatly the best film ever. When I was little I used to watch it everyday over and over again. Especially the Battle of Hoth. I was just obssessed with ATATs. ;-))

I used to have all the toys and spent everyday setting up the Hoth battle and blowing up the Rebels. In fact the worst day of my life was when my Mum gave away my ATAT to my cousins as I got a little older and the gits broke its legs off and stuff, turning it into a shadow of its former glory. :-(

Finally a Star Wars game has cattered to my needs. ;-)

Any ideas what the bugs were? Not to be dis-respectful to the PS2 but I rekon the framerate mus**t suffer a fair bit with 16 players online. Looking forward to this very much.

Looks like it could be brilliant online, apart from the iffy framerate which is corrected in the final release this seems like it's gonna be big on Live :D

The best you can do is to really watch yourself along the obvious path, then go around the traps. You still have to be cautious of rocket launcher troops though. ;-)
