“Reliving my favorite movie battle in Star Wars: Battlefront”

“It’s easy to imagine Battlefront as a Star Wars-ified version of EA’s long-running Battlefield series. Both offer wide open arenas, force players to fight over capture points, and include a range of vehicles to drive and pilot. But a few minutes spent on Hoth dissuaded me of that notion. Battlefront is to Battlefield as Star Wars is to real war. It’s the movie version of organized violence — the kind where stricken foes fly backwards with Wilhelm screams, where tottering walkers explode like fireworks-packed toys, and where the blood and guts of mass murder doesn’t ever stain the snow and dust of unreal worlds.”

Sounds fantastic!
