this is the best iterative sequel of all time. everything about the first game has been refined and made tighter. the map design is mostly focused on smaller scale infantry combat above all else, making the game feel hectic in large scale battles and competitive in small scale battles. the singleplayer is far more substantive in every mode. by far the best star wars game ever
this game seems to get buried under its sequel in discussions about the battlefront series but its a great game. the maps and movement arent as tight as in the sequel, which leads to a slower paced and more grandiose feeling game. the vehicle play in this one is honestly better than the second. the singleplayer modes are pretty rudimentary but it works as an excuse to put you into some extremely fun star wars battles
a pretty good distillation of the battlefront formula onto psp. the core gameplay loop is still there with some control issues. i really enjoy the new customization system and have found a lot of combinations i enjoy using. the galactic conquest is worse in some ways (less ludonarrative value) and better in a few (structured like risk, less space battles). hero flag is a fun instant action gamemode that i wish wasnt exclusive to the psp. the map design is small and linear with some pretty poor vehicle usage, basically the opposite of battlefront 2004s map design. the campaign is very short and easy but does some fun stuff with the customization system. overall a solid psp game
