Where as in the early days of massive online play, you couldn't get into a match without people chatting away (and screaming awful slurs at one another), but you just don't see many people using the functionality too much anymore. That's why I don't think too many people are going to be upset to hear that[...]

I was really quite impressed by the Star Wars: Battlefront beta I didn't play it for too long, in fear of burning out on the game before it is even out, but the authenticity and spectacle of the experience were pretty enamouring. According to EA's stats though, you probably already know that As revealed in a blog[...]

They are a way of getting a lot of DLC discounted and secured early, but they also require users to pay even more than the asking price of the game for something they don't know the quality of. That's why this particularly expensive Star Wars: Battlefront Season Pass is causing such a stir It drops in[...]

Having played Star Wars: Battlefront at E3 and a bunch in the beta over the last few days, it does seem like a pretty 'safe' first person shooter FPSs are violent by definition, but if you were going to play one with your kids or young teens, Battlefront feels like a safe bet. In fact, that[...]

The Battlefield comparison has dogged Star Wars Battlefront ever since we've seen gameplay footage To a degree, I understand it I think they are fundamentally different games on the outside, but it definitely has that DICE 'feel' all over it. Speaking to OXM (via GamesRadar+),  DICE general manager Patrick Bach says that just re-skinning Battlefield with Star Wars[...]

It seems we are in the nuclear arms race for minifridges special editions this year. Call of Duty of course announced a fridge edition for their game

I've been lucky enough to get hand's on with Star Wars: Battlefront, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time with it I think it is an experience people should get some play time with before writing it off as a 'Battlefield skin'. Luckily, you'll get the chance to do that in the upcoming beta for the game[...]

The Battle of Jakku is going to be a a real interesting bit of content for Star Wars: Battlefront If you don't know, the map is going to be added to the game two weeks after launch for free for those who pre-order the game Everyone else will get it a week later. The battleground is[...]

Star Wars: Battlefront is sure to be one of the biggest titles of the year, I have no doubt Coming out just a few weeks before The Force Awakens hits screens, it will ensure that hype alone will cary this game on its back. If you really want to show off your Star Wars allegiance though,[...]

There has been a cautious feeling surrounding Star Wars: Battlefront since it was announced that the game wouldn't have a dedicated single player campaign A lot of Star Wars fans, who don't love online FPS's are feeling left in the dark, except for certain 'missions' you can do on your own. Well, EA COO Peter Moore has[...]

The heroes and villain inclusion in Battlefront II was fairly inspired There was nothing more fun than waiting at a choke point with Darth Maul and tearing apart Storm Trooper forces as they proceeded on you. That's why I'm excited to see them in action in the upcoming reboot by DICE We haven't seen too much[...]

Star Wars: Battlefront will live or die on its game modes The online multiplayer centric game will need variety and breadth in order to keep the player base coming back all the time. With that, EA and DICE have announced a new mode for the game, called Blast Don't expect to be blown away by the[...]

Star Wars: Battlefront was one of the cool highlights of E3 for me There really is something special to zipping around a war torn battlefield, but being surrounded by Star Wars dressings It can be very exciting. There is an alpha currently going on for a very select number of players too, and even though I'm[...]

When I played Star Wars: Battlefront, I commented on how much the game felt like Battlefield I wouldn't say that it is a one to one comparison by a long shot, but the roots of developer DICE are hard to deny. It turns out that the developer are hoping to distance themselves even further from their[...]

I liked Star Wars: Battlefront a whole bunch when I played it at E3 The big scale battle fit the Star Wars universe well, and zipping around in vehicles was pretty exciting. One of the things that gave it a real sense of scale were the AT-ATs, which act as objectives for the game If they[...]

People have been pretty bummed about Star Wars: Battlefront not having a dedicated narrative mode since its been announced I get it too We all want an exciting new, next-gen Star Wars story to experience, and Battlefront isn't offering that. Speaking to Gamespot, DICE's Patrick Bach has taken these concerns head on, simply by saying, that the[...]

This is just a quick heads up, as some of you might be very lucky. Star Wars: Battlefront is having an Alpha to test technical issues, but to manage your expectations, it seems selection is very limited If you have an Origin account, you can log in here to see if you have have been selected[...]

With Star Wars Episode VII coming out this December, it's understandable to think that EA and DICE are under pressure to get Battlefront out of the doors to catch the wave If one thing is for sure, there is going to be a frenzy surrounding Star Wars this Christmas. EA have said that that won't dictate[...]

I have no doubt that Star Wars: Battlefront is going to be a gorgeous game DICE have always been technical wizards and find ways to get a lot out of home consoles. Having said that, I'm still continually impressed by what I see out of screenshots of the game Granted, we haven't seen gameplay yet, but[...]

They just don't trust that EA isn't going to cut up games and try to take every penny they can from their wallets. I personally think this is a little over exaggerated, but it is hard to deny the presence of this corporate mentality. Some gamers have already turned their sights to Star Wars: Battlefront as a[...]

Star Wars: Battlefront is going to have a monstrous marketing campaign, I have no doubt E3 presentations, extensive trailers, bull shots and interviews will flow around its November release date.
