Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Totally Awesome
Review: Definetley Great. It's totally awesome.Don't Waste You Time On StarCraft or Comand and Conquer. Defenitley try Galactic Empire before anything else. The Make your own Scenario is wickedd. And if you have Windows Media Player put the cd in and go to "Audio cd" and listen to the soundtrack. It the BEST.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT!!
Review: excellent game, you can have hours of playing this even if your not a star wars Fan like myself. I played age of empires, greatgame, but this is so much better. Each civilization is so unique and diffrent, that makes the game so good, unlike age of empires in which most units are the same. In my opion great game and well worth the price.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Battlegrounds is derivitive and way over-rated
Review: Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds only redeeming feature is the basic Star Wars theme. For the street price of 44.99 the game is way overpriced, considering you can get the real thing for 40$, that is the revolutionary Age of Empires 2. Battlegrounds feels like a Star Wars mod for AofE2. The game may be worth purchasing for 20 bucks for Star Wars fans. Bottomline: It sucks.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Cool but not Ground Breaking!
Review: I, like many others bought this game because I'm a fan of the Star Wars series. THe game had the potential to be a new a and entertaining expirence.

At first the characters and new terrains were satisfying. After a day or two though, you realize you're just playing Age of Empires with Star Wars equipment.

If you've played Age of Empires, and have already "OD" on it, don't bother getting this game. It's practically the same thing.

If you hav'nt "OD" on Age of Empires, or better yet, never played it, then Star Wars Galatic Battle Grounds should be a great game playing expirence for you.

My advice is don't get the game just because it says Star Wars. Think about how much fun you'll recieve while playing the game.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Galactic Battlegrounds
Review: If you like the Age of Empire series, plus if you are a Star Wars fan as most are, then you'll love this game, no question.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My new favorite Star Wars game
Review: This is without a doubt the best Star Wars PC game to come out in a while. I'm a bit new to RTS games, but I found this one very easy to learn abd play. This will probably be the only game I play until Jedi Outcast comes out!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Force Is Strong With This RTS Game!!
Review: Got this one for an early Christmas present and loved it! I had gotten bored with AOK:TC and was excited to see something like this breath fresh air into the genere. This one is screaming for expansion packs galore! I've also turned two co-workers onto this game as well. If you hate Star Wars, then leave this one alone. But if you're like me, then you'll be up way past your bedtime with this bad boy! The knock that I have seen in some reviews is that its "just like AOE2". Well, all I can say is that you need to stay up with your gaming news. Lucas Arts contracted with Ensemble Studios (the AOE developers) to produce SWGB. After the miserable gameplay of Force Commander, Lucas Arts realized that they may want to seek some outside help in creating a RTS-style game for Star Wars. In other words, Lucas Arts wanted to use the Ensemble gaming engine because it recognized it as a superior product. In my opinion, it was a great move. The only beef I have is that the AI needs some definite work. After massive initial attacks on your position, enemy units tend to follow those up with weak one and two unit skirmishes. They also tend to attack the same spot almost exclusively after a while. This seems to happen in the longer campaigns most of the time. But the overall game play is simply great. Gettiing to play as Darth Vader applying a Force Choke to some Rebel scum is way cool!! All the characters are fanatastic, even some from the Star Wars Expanded Universe are introduced. The campaigns are well-conceived and the tutorial is very informative. Even veteran Agers will want to run through it just to get a handle on the new look and feel of the game. And of course, the Imperial Walkers RULE!! As a friend of mine put it, "Let's see how your Persian War Elephants do against my AT-AT's!" Hey, there's an idea for an expansion pack......
