The PSP version lacks both of these, as well as a second analog stick. While offline games were a bit of a bore and basic gameplay flaws abounded, providing Star Wars nerds with the opportunity to play around with the stuff they've dreamed about for the majority of their lives was a good selling point.īattlefront II has that selling point, too, coupled with the "Rise of the Empire" single-player mode. Battlefront had a great mix of Star Wars vehicles and characters and allowed players to bring them all against their friends, head-to-head. Sure, it didn't help Star Wars Galaxies much, but that game was a car wreck of an MMORPG.

Star Wars Battlefront II for PSP is similar to its recently announced console counterpart with space combat, playable Jedi, and Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith content, yet it still boasts several distinct features meant to embrace the "on-the-go" nature of a handheld system. This is a must-have PSP FPS game for anyone who loves guns, spaceships, Star Wars, and Wookies. For a PSP game, the controls could've been worse. I think it really utilized the controls well. A really addictive FPS for the Playstation Portable.
