"Star Wars - Battlefront"

So, is this worth getting? Savatt seems to be addicted to it on Live, so it must be pretty good :-)

What's so special about it on Live? Is the single player any good? Any more questions I can ask? :-)

Want a game of halo2?

Sorry about this having nothing to do with what you need to know.

Not right at this minute cos I'm at work :-)

Single player's awful

The Live section, while fun, is awfully put together. It's a good game, but it's also got one of the worst Live set-ups I've ever seen. Really difficult finding games and the getting your friends into the game you're in and on the right team.

Hopefully they'll fix all this for the sequel.

Yeah - real shame as the obvious intent behind it was to make it a decent Live game...and it certainly mucked that up.

Laggy, slow, unwieldly and worst of all, as Tilta said, impossible to meet your friends etc/set up a decent game.

I met up with friends really easily on it. :S

Well yeah, you could meet up with your friends ok.

Just how often did you meet up in a non-laggy, all-of-you-on-one-side, decent map/etc game?

Once? Twice?

A lot since I played it to death on the first day but I only had the game for about 2 days and then I sold it. :)

One of my friends was always hosting and we all joined them so it ran fine.

Hmmm, maybe I'll give it a miss then...

It's really good fun, I got rid of it because it didn't have stats and not because I thought it was a poor game.
