It lacks the high quality writing that came with the first game and Suda's heavier involvement, but I feel like the gameplay also smokes the original at times.

Great game that sits in the shadow of its sequel often times. I enjoy the total focus on ground combat, despite the lack of playable heroes. Sadly a lot of great maps got taken out for Battlefront II, outside of perhaps early DLC.

One of the easiest games for me to pick up and play casually, whether loading up a save or starting a new game to get a fresh sense of progression through missions, rampages, and hidden package collection.

Satisfying combat bogged down by a dialogue system and plot not on par with New Vegas. There is at least a greater number of likable and compelling companions, compared to Fallout 3. Mods really aid this one.
