Yes please let me know too where I might get the original versions.
This, as well as Battlefront. And what constitutes a reasonable good price for originals.

Thanks in advance

For those who don't mind getting used games, you can try a local xbox site where you can pick-up older games at $20 to $30. I got my Battlefront 2 from one of the Forum members for $30 so I was quite happy as I could not seem to find it at retail stores.

Guess it really depends on whether you like shooter type games. I liked it just because you get to explore some of the settings in SW universe. Although it is made up, it was just nice to experience the sets.

Woah .

I've already played the game .

Won it and still playing . It's a nice game .

Anyway . Exclipse .

To slice a vehicle , you have to be an engineer and have to use the weapon thingy that you use to repair objects .

Did you also know that one of the mission's in the Star Wars BattleFront 2 game was that you had to kill everyone in the Jedi Temple?!

It was great killing those phetatic jedi but it was exceptionally hard . There were like Temple vanguards shooting rockets at my men and killing three at once ..
There were some jedi killing a whole load of my clone buddies and I eradicated them with ease before I got sliced into half by another Jedi .

There's also another mission when you're serving the Imperial army and is on board the DeathStar . There will be like a prison break and a ship escapes the DeathStar while a Jedi is still on board wrecking chaos with some fellow Rebels . After you kill everyone , you'll be sent to chase after the ship . The ship .. I think is the ship which Leia Skywalker took to escape the DeathStar .

The Air battle's are the most fun to play at . There's this one mission when you're attacking Yavin 4 and there are rebel's trying to escape the planet with their transport ships and stuff . You'll be told to disable several ships by destroying their engines . There'll be a time and so it's really really hard .

I think I've given spoilers . Anyone want me to edit ?

Now this is a story-line game with promice! I was shocked by how well it was put together, seeing as where Battlefront one Wasnt worth Stomping my boots on. :lol: This was a good First try. The only thing that was even a little dissapointing was the fact of the Soldier classes, i rather they would have done it with the legions to that planet were armed with such and such, and having such and such abilities, i mean you see a Nova Star marine commanded by Ak-kai-kurimundi (how ever his name is spelt, i'm not checking, i'm just posting. Stupid conehead jedi :lol: ) Walking around on Kayyshkkk. How screwy is that?

The best of course, and the most climatic is the Battle of Hoth, through the eyes of the Empire. "We all gatherd around a burning bunker, as the members of the 501st let out a cheer that shook the stars. The rebellion was finished, the Death Star was being rebuilt. Bigger, and better then ever, All in do part, to the men, Of the Five-Hundred-and-First." :D :roll: Makes me feel proud to be a Clone. *Teardrop.* :lol: 8)

Is it me, or do the Rebels in this game look worse then the one's in the first? Their equipment looked cooler, in the First battlefront game.

Well, I never played the first Battlefront game but I really like the Rise of the Empire storyline in Battlefront II. It allowed me to see the story through a clone trooper's eyes (later turned stormtrooper but that's another issue).
I'm a fighter. I've always been a fighter.
The few times when I have been at leisure, I've been miserable.
I want challenges, I crave them.
