Star War Battlefront (Mac) Description:

Star War Battlefront (Mac) review:
4 stars (It's pretty good.) - i thought this game was good, but it was slower than the PS2 version unless u have like a mac G5.
4 stars (Star Wars Battlefront) - Get this game. Now, that said, I'll cover through this review a couple of cautions, then mention a perspective, then finish with Fun, Fun, Fun!



By the way, have I mentioned that you should get this game? Definitely, this game is a must if you've ever thought it'd be fun to be a defender of the Old Republic, or if you'd rather defeat "Rebel scum." Or, even if you've thought you might like to take part in any of those grand battles of the Star Wars universe.



Now for a couple of cautions. I was exceptionally excited after getting this game. And then upon initial installation (which was very smooth and simple), I was asked for the code to enter which would begin the game, easily found on the back side of the DVD-rom plastic case.



Or, so I thought. The code didn't work. So, thinking I might have entered the wrong code, I looked all over the DVD, then the inside of the DVD case, and then on the all of the installation paperwork, the advertisement insert ... nothing. No joy. And I tasted the sour of a software lemon. Oy!



[...] It seems the software code was misprinted on many of the software cases (mine included.) And with great ease, the correct software code was given to me at that web address.



While the first caution was fairly easily solved over the internet, my second caution relates to my misunderstanding relating to use of the DVD. I thought the DVD was only for the initial installation. Ohhh, nooooo. Keep the DVD available; the game won't run without it. I suppose the payoff (Fun, Fun, Fun!) is definitely worth it, but having a Powerbook, I tend to travel extensively, and running the DVD drains the battery, and drains it but good. So, for me this was a bit of a frustration, so now I play the game with the power connected.



So, play the game I do! I plugged my computer in, inserted the DVD, and double clicked on the application's icon.



And I was off! Into the brilliant universe of Star Wars, I was immediately immersed. John Williams soundtrack sounded with deep tones to start me on my gaming experience.



If you want to play on the Dune Sea of Tatooine, or the ice plateaus of Hoth, you can! If you want to play a clone soldier in the Old Republic, or act as a stormtrooper of the Empire, you can! This is an amazing experience.



Now, before the Fun can truly continue, I need to tell you my perspective. I'm horrible at Star Wars Battlefront. I can't win this game, but I'm not a good gamer. I just love playing and losing. (Some day I'll win this game. Some day.)



Have I mentioned that you should get this game? "A long time ago, in a galaxy, far, far way..." (You know you want to.)



Please contact me with any questions. And have Fun, Fun, Fun!
5 stars (Awesomely Action!) - It is an action packed game. I actually feel llike a character in the movie. I love the places, because they are so detailed. They have so many cool spots to go.
