Rating: Summary: its great Review: i love this game there are no downsides exxcept for the lack of lightsaber duels
Rating: Summary: Incredible... Only word to describe it. Review: I got the game last night and from the secondI began the installation process, I knew this was going to be awinner.The cutscenes are fantastic, Lucasarts knows how much gamerslike these little rewards for their work and effort and the opening sequence is nothing short of spectacular. The gameplay is superior. It would be nice if there were an option to slow it down or even pause it, but, hey, this is "Real-time" strategy--no such wussy options here. The "Holographic Interface" (the gameplay screen through which you control your troops) is actually pretty easy to get used to, and is incredibly flexible at the same time. You can get dirtside with your troops and watch a stormtrooper run past you as he fires his blaster at the rebels while a AT-ST comes traipsing up from behind. Sound and music are equally spectacular. END
Rating: Summary: Command Points Review: The downside as mentioned in the previous view is what makes this RTS different from the rest. This game uses a system of "Command Points" instead of the usual resource gathering of every other RTS game out there. The Command Point (CP) system works like prestige points. Destroy enemy units, gain CPs. Occupy enemy structures, gain CPs. Achieve mission goals, gain CPs. This was done in order to force the player to use combined arms instead of the cliched "Tank Rush" tactic used in alot of RTS's like Command & Conquer and clones. The units in Force Commander work like a "Rock, Paper, Scissors" way. You would NOT want to storm your opponent with 50 AT-ATs because they suck against infantry, namely the Rebel Infiltrators which can take-over an enemy vehicle just like Chewbacca took over the AT-ST in "Jedi". So of course, to counter Rebel infantry, you want to use fast moving AT-PTs. You lose CPs for not using what you've got, so basically it's like if you just sit around and not do anything, you would lose prestige points with your superiors. Achieve your goals and thus gain CPs. GAME MECHANICS -Screen resolutions up to 1024 x 768 x 32 -3D Accelerated -3D floating camera--zoom out to a bird's-eye-view, or get right down on the ground with your troops. -Classic John Williams soundtrack REMIXED with modern music, ie Heavy Rock.

Rating: Summary: Best Star Wars Game to Date! Review: From early screenshots, this game looks hot! The only downside I could find was that when playing the game, you collect "command points" which allow you to recieve new vehicles for your team. So, you can't go into a battle with let's say 20 At-Ats because command points are lost. Otherwise, this game looks very promising and enjoyable!
