"Star Wars Battlefronts"

Is looking like it may well be an excellent game, especially if the online side of it lives up to all the hype. A friend was saying that they bought the new official playstation magazine which has a playable demo which they commented on as being fantastic fun.

My guess is star wars fans will be pleased with it but I'm not sure how non fans will find it.
I myself am looking forward to this one, I just hope that it lives up to my expectations.

There probably will be as X-Wings are in it... SHould be good ge to recreate some of the classic dogfights between the two.

I'll have it on Live, and shalt smite thee Rebels.

I hope you can have TIE FIghters.

I got the mag yesterday and the demo is brialliant, but it has a timeout on it after about 5 minutes which is a let down, you get to go either the rebels or the empire in the level. Its great to go the rebels and steal an empire ATAT and use it against them.

I hope this is popular online, if it is it'll be great!

Yes!

I get paid on the 26th which is the release date I think.

My friend was saying there is a weapon (power-up or whatever they call it) which disguises you as an opponent fighter. So you can walk around as one of your opponents and then remove the disguise and start killing them. You can't fire any weapons when you are disguised but if you can do that kind of thing in the online games its going to be quite entertaining.

I'm suprised this is the first topic about it actually.

The online battles look so big, I cant wait!

It's gonna be excellent, i must get the new PS2 mag so I can play the demo.

I'll be getting it for online only.
