  • Let's see...

    The good:
    -It's better than most Starwars games on the DS
    -It's multiplayer
    -It has some story and you can play by yourself
    -First Battle front game on DS

    The Bad:
    -It's not entirely 3D (it's just isometrical...)
    -It's not Online Multiplayer
    -The controls are horrible
    -They could have done better with the Space battles

    I mean look at Phantasy Star Portable and Zero

    The PSP version might be nice looking and have lots of missions and much more customizable, but the DS version has a better story, a multiplayer online and more work to accomplish. I own both psp and dsi and both of the games and I both like them but PS0 is much better.

    Why couldn't have they done that with Battlefront? Online 3D battlefront on the DS would have worked better than psp >_<

  • Nothing like the other battlefront games, it's just like the other star wars games on DS.

  • Quite a linear game, the gameplay isn't bad and neither is the graphics, even though the framerate does get noticeably low in some places as there is so much happening in the background. It does get boring rather quickly though.

  • I really, really wish they had made this one like they made Lord of the rings: Conquest. But no, they made it a linear experience with crappy space combat, decent land combat, and ish vehicle combat.

    It's worth a download, but it could have been so much better.

  • Come on guys, dont complain. This people work their ass off the make a okey star wars games on DS, and you guys download it for free and screaming back to the makers of the game "why are they so "idiots" and cant do it better than this"...

    ...Goldeneye 64 isnt made everyday.

    It comes out ALOOT of creepy badly dully games for DS, so when you at least get a actually pretty good game from the star wars team. Than just say "THANK YOU GUYS"...

    ...even its not Goldeneye 64 number 2. That game probly dosent come anyway!

  • Well, there's been a lot of back-and-forth on this game, so I figure that I should throw my two cents in.

    In all honesty, I really tried to like this game. I figured that any Battlefront for the DS would be worth the download, no matter how bad it got. After all, I enjoyed Force Unleashed and Lord of the Rings: Conquest for the DS, so a fusion of the two should be awesome, right? Well, I forgot one important thing: A Battlefront game isn't melee with a hint of ranged, it's ranged with a hint of melee. As a result, making a top-down Battlefront is severely lacking in the terms of long-ranged combat, and it will also revolve around auto-targeting. Not that I have anything against auto-targeting, but in the case of a top-down it means that the character will have to be pretty close to someone to target them or that the character will have to be shrunk down (a la GTA:Chinatown Wars). But, since this is a Battlefront game, the classes need to be easily distinguishable, so the screen is zoomed in enough that you can only see a matter of feet in front of you. And then there's the space combat. Since Battlefront II, space battles are a key part of the series, and seeing them done this way is just painful. It would be better to simply eliminate space combat rather than providing gamers with what feels like an unfinished experiment. I fully realize that the DS isn't as powerful as other platforms, but that just means that the developers should have left things out, rather than trying to force them all in.
    And that brings me to my next point: the PSP version. I feel that this may have ruined my unbiased stance on the game, but when I compared what Elite Squadron SHOULD be to what is was, I just felt the latter was lacking. Of course, the former was lacking as well, having removed many of the vehicles from Renegade Squadron and having made Battlefront boring (all Instant Action missions boiling down to a series of events: get to ion cannon, go to space, blow up spaceship, go to ground, win game), but I'm not here to talk about the PSP version so I'll continue this rant on the DS version.
    Another problem for this game is that it's not a DS-exclusive game. The Clone Wars games are the only DS-exclusive Star Wars games I know of, and they do relatively well. DS-exclusives are generally better because it means the developers need to focus on DS gameplay, rather than trying to make a PSP game a DS game. To borrow devlydave's example, it could have been an exception to the 'PSP games work better on PSP than DS' like Phantasy Star Zero, but that would need improved gameplay, or realizing that the DS isn't as powerful as the PSP. Phantasy Star Zero compensated for this by making rooms smaller and more numerous, and by making random item drops occur only after beating every monster in the room. Elite Squadron does this by attacking the gameplay with a shovel and pickaxe, and I think the game suffers.

    Final word: It would have done better were it not under the label of Battlefront: Elite Squadron, maybe calling it Battlefront: Devil Squadron, and replaceing the characters from ES with new ones. But, since it is named after the PSP games, it has to be held up against them, a field where it fails. It's an okay game, worth a download, but don't be surprised when you find yourself wanting to play another game.
