Star Wars Battlefront II (Mini Box)
Star Wars Battlefront II takes you further into the battles that raged a long time ago in a galaxy far away. The compelling storyline spans more than 12 new locations, many from Episode III -- including volcanic Mustafar and the space battle above Coruscant. It also has the Death Star interior, classic space battles and the fight aboard the Tantive IV, Princess Leia's blockade runner seen at the beginning of Star Wars: Episode IV. All-new classic movie moments bring the adventure to life, while a revamped single-player & multiplayer experience includes smarter AI enemies and allies, with emphasis on story told through open-ended mission-based objectives. There's even new space battles allow you to dogfight in X-wings, TIE fighters, Jedi starfighters and several other starcraft.
Star Wars Battlefront II takes the best-selling Star Wars video game of all time one Imperial-walker step forward with all-new space combat, playable Jedi, and never-before-seen environments straight out of the Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith movie. Fans of the original Star Wars Battlefront will also enjoy an all-new single-player experience that takes players through an epic, story-based saga where every action the player takes impacts the battlefront and, ultimately, the fate of the Star Wars galaxy. Battlefront II improves upon the original game's single-player experience with open-ended, mission-based objectives inspired from all six Star Wars films. The compelling storyline spans more than 16 new locations, many from the Episode III movie, including volcanic Mustafar and the space battle above Coruscant. All-new classic movie moments complete the Battlefront II experience, as players battle within the interior of the Death Star and visit Princess Leia's blockade runner, the Tantive IV, as seen at the beginning of Episode IV A New Hope. In addition, at certain key moments within the battles, players can earn the opportunity to wield a lightsaber and use the Force as a Jedi. For the first time ever, Battlefront players can engage in space combat and, during the same battle, board enemy ships to attack from within. Starting on foot inside a capital ship, players can enter the starcraft of their choice and travel into space to dogfight with the rival faction. From there, they can dock within the enemy's capital ship, overtake the ship's command posts, man its turrets to disable its shields and destroy it from within! Or, they can simply stay inside their own capital ship and defend it from attacks and enemy fire. The choice is theirs.

Star Wars Battlefront II (Mini Box) Reviews
My husband and son spent a good deal of time playing this game Christmas day.
It is not realistic at all, but is more like an arcade type of combat. Plus, it's Star Wars, so chalk that one on top of all the other good things. If you have just a PS2, then rent it to see if the performance hit is worth buying the game for. The reticule has taken the largest hit, with some features missing, like a reload ticker for your guns and its a little block in the middle instead of a precise dot, making long-range aiming harder. I used to have an XBox with this game when it first came out, and it was a blast.
The game itself is really fun. Also, in galactic conquest, it is very hard to see the map for some reason. All of the soldier classes are balanced, and the game modes are fun. To sum it up, buy the PC DVD version of BF2 only if you have just a PC or a PS2 and a PC. The graphics are better, but not too much.
It is much easier to aim with a mouse, but movement isn't as good as the console. I bought this PC version when my XBox broke down, and I noticed that it is not as good as the XBox version. I have tried the PS2 version with my cousin's PS2, the XBox version, and now the PC version, so I will sum up what is what. Buy the XBox version first if you have an XBox at all. The XBox and PS2 versions are pretty much the same, with the PS2 having noticeably worse performance and graphics.
So, 1st Xbox, 2nd PC, 3rd PS2.
You need two individual copies if you wish two people to play online in same server room. The computer version is even better. But be careful. The online play is really addictive and fun. BF2 was great then I got a copy for pc because my son wanted to play too by himself.
It is open to playing with less than pleasant and sometimes very bitter and angry people. A great shooter which allows for variable gameplay and strategy. I originally bought bf2 for the ps2. Also its great because it only has to verify you have the cd/dvd at startup and then after you don't need to have disc in drive. Give it a try though you'll enjoy it even if not a star wars fan.
Had the original for computer. Crisper images and better gameplay.
Overall this is a fun game. (Google for "Battlefront II trainer" if you don't know what a trainer is). My favorite enhancement over the original playable Jedi characters. The graphics and controls are a little better than the original Battlefront, as is the single player storyline. My only complaint is a couple of the levels are so insanely difficult I had to use a trainer to beat them.
I just got this game, and so far i really like it-and it loads very quickly on my PC. I build the best Also, if you find yourself in need of a nice gaming PC, contact me through amazon. GFX look great and the controls are intuitive out of the box for the most part. It plays well and seems to have no glitches other than a slight incompatibility with my widescreen monitor, but it only causes a quick flash of an incompatibility screen that dissapears after a couple second severy time you go into a 3d mode (ie load a map).
