Summary: Pretty good, but could be better
Review: While this game was the first game in the X-Wing/TIE Fighter series to be a multiplayer, you might be better off using a DSL connection because it's veryveryveryveryveryveryvery laggy. Missions are tough on the Rebel side because of all the TIE Advanceds, but on the Imperial missions, it's too easy. Also, they forgot the B-Wing (which comes with Balance Of Power), the TIE Defender and in the non-BoP version, even the lines when you go into hyperspace. Lots missing, work on it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Space Combat Followup
Review: You flew for the Alliance in X-Wing. You traded sides for Tie Fighter. Now get ready to experience both sides! This game offers great combat for multiplayer and enough single player missions to get you started, however not really worth buying unless you intend to play on the internet.

Summary: nice
Review: You get to melee in Star Wars ships. That's essentially the point of this game. X-Wing Vs. Tie Fighter includes melees such as free for all, ones with wingmen, in asteroid clusters, etc. There are also things like minecleaning and turkey shoot where you shoot at larger ships.
Balance of Power adds the B-wing to the list of ships, and campaign missions. Also, my favorite part of the game, it adds a 25 minute long turkey shoot that starts with cargo freighters and ends with a super star destroyer. The first time you see the size of it, you'll be happy you got the game.

Fun. Once I start playing, it's usually hours before I quit. Controls are good, too, though it takes a bit to memorize what keys do what.
