Intro 

After about a year of being available for the 

PC and PS2 as well as having a sequel 

about to be released, Aspyr unleashed Star 

Wars Battlefront. For those who have not 

heard of Battlefront, it's basically Star Wars 

meets Battlefield 1942. Battlefield 1942 was 

an excellent game itself, but multiplayer 

Star Wars first person shooter. What a cool 

concept I can know be a Stormtrooper and 

serve the Empire!
