[DownLikeBCPowder]

Is this the old games??

 

[Heisenberg007]

Man, I hope they release a Battlefront 3.

 

[FeralEcho]

Already have the BC version of BF2 in 4k on Xbox so not that interested in this but I'm glad they are making this.

 

[TGO]

What are the chances of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Collection

 

[MiguelItUp]

Awesome! I love the old games, the new ones I don't like though,.

 

[adamsapple]

Is this the better games??

Yes.

* and fixed

 

[MiguelItUp]

Awesome! I love the old games, the new ones I don't like though,.

Yeah, same. I really loved the visuals, music, and audio for the newer games. But I felt like some of the gameplay changes just weren't as good. But I played them anyway because I love Star Wars and Battlefront, haha.

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

Yes, pretty much. Presentation was awesome but it felt like a completely different style of game to me.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

It includes the Xbox DLC packs too!


I must've put in a couple thousand hours of SWBF2 online on the PS2 back in 2005-2009, I am so fucking in for this.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Yes, pretty much. Presentation was awesome but it felt like a completely different style of game to me.

Exactly. The second was better than the first, especially after the final updates. But it still didn't hold a candle to these games.

 

[Frexerik88]

No graphical upgrades? will it be 60 fps?

 

[Wooxsvan]

No graphical upgrades? will it be 60 fps?

its def running at 60 in the trailer and higher resolution than ps2 or xbox. dunno other than that

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Day one

A lot of fun memories on the OG Xbox Live with this

 

[cash_longfellow]

Nice! Hopefully this sets the stage for a Socom 2 classic release.

 

[LordCBH]

YES!!!!! Finally some good fucking Battlefront games on PS4/5

 

[TrebleShot]

I will play this DLDSR 120fps, hopefully some added DS features.

 

[Sojiro]

Caught this off the Switch direct, looking forward to this! Curious if there will be a physical version, but even if there isn't I am in.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Also crossplay between gen ps4 and ps5 is nice!

 

[a multicultural team of v]

Are those modes listed as offline solo truly offline solo only, or could you play them coop with one other person?

 

[FrankWza]

Nice! Hopefully this sets the stage for a Socom 2 classic release.

Was coming to post this.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Was coming to post this.

You would think it has to, right? Star Wars has always been super popular, but Socom had to be more popular than this at the time. I mean, I’m just guessing…but Socom 2 was the go to shooter on PlayStation at that time.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Are those modes listed as offline solo truly offline solo only, or could you play them coop with one other person?

Fully offline and fully splitscreen (except the campaign iirc).

 

[BennyBlanco]

Whoa. These games are fire.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

So many good memories of these games

 

[a multicultural team of v]

Fully offline and fully splitscreen (except the campaign iirc).

Aww that's a shame. Splitscreen is ok I guess but it would have been nice to at least be able to 2 player coop those using separate screens.

 

[FrankWza]

You would think it has to, right? Star Wars has always been super popular, but Socom had to be more popular than this at the time. I mean, I’m just guessing…but Socom 2 was the go to shooter on PlayStation at that time.

I would say so. Yes. Without searching I think Socom 2 was doing 20k a night. It was definitely the most popular shooter on PS

 

[Robb]

I used to play these a ton back in the day, super fun. Looks like crap now though, wish they’d have done more with the visuals..

 

[BennyBlanco]

Coming to everything

 

[Pancakes and Sausage]

Are these games remastered?

 

[CuteFaceJay]

I don't get it. These games already exist.

 

[MonkD]

 

[ManaByte]

This is why the KOTOR remake isn't coming. Aspyr still has 20 year old Star Wars games to re-release.

 

[LordCBH]

This is why the KOTOR remake isn't coming. Aspyr still has 20 year old Star Wars games to re-release.

Hell if they could get around to porting the old KOTOR games to something other than the Switch I’d be pretty happy at this point. I’ve given up on the remake.

 

[ManaByte]

Just get the Xbox versions. They run in 4K.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

This is the biggest news of the year imo.

 

[Evil Calvin]

Is this worth it for solo? How long are the campaigns?

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Is this worth it for solo? How long are the campaigns?

Like 2-4 hours. But it's got offline bot matches and the board-game like Galactic Conquest mode.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Great to see the actual good Battlefront games getting love.

 

[Complistic]

Is this worth it for solo? How long are the campaigns?

I played them endlessly solo when I was a small lad.

 

[cjp]

What’s XL Mode? Doesn’t really explain it in the blog post.

 

[BennyBlanco]

What’s XL Mode? Doesn’t really explain it in the blog post.

The 64 player mode from the OG PC release

 

[RoboCain]

Great W for PS players. It would be cool to get the PS2 version of Force Unleashed too.

 

[XXL]

Hell if they could get around to porting the old KOTOR games to something other than the Switch I’d be pretty happy at this point. I’ve given up on the remake.

I bought both of them on Steam for a few dollars when they were on sale.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Just get the Xbox versions. They run in 4K.

Or dirt cheap on Steam sales. They run on a potato, and you can get community made bug fixes and restored KOTOR 2 that was cut and rushed out the door.

 

[tkscz]

Will XL mode have cross-platform play?

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Do these games have standard TDM mode?
