Having never played any Star Wars games outside of the original NES one  I don't know if any of them offer the same kind of experience. They all seem very different types of game from what I've seen.

Is there anything wrong with people expecting them to be offering both multiplayer and even a 15-20 hour campaign, given they're charging full price? Take your point that there's no obligation, but I reckon they're probably entitled to feel it's poor value for money. A lot of people want a campaign to work through.

Anna Kendrick in the advert though so

Dunno if I agree. Not every game needs to offer the standard campaign and multiplayer set up.

The game is renowned for its multiplayer game play, and loads of folk would be seething if they pied that to focus on an aspect of the game no one was going to play.

If you want a single player led game then you're not going to buy battlefront, but if you want a multi player driven experience then you will feel you're getting your money's worth with it.

I'm somewhere in the middle. I was buying it for multi player but don't feel it is worth the 50 quid. I'm still enjoying it tho.

Picked it up a couple of hours ago.

The graphics are pinigol as fuck.

However, so far, I'm shite at flying x-wings and speeders

I don't think we are in that much disagreement here, Morph, in that we both agree some people will probably feel short changed by a full price game with that little to it (like you are) and others won't care. I'm not suggesting they bump the multiplayer in favour of a campaign, just that I can see how people would want that kind of game as a single player as well - playing the part of an individual character through the events of the films, seeing how you impact on them etc. I personally prefer a single player because forever alone, so I'm a bit biased

[Del-icious]

I don't feel like I've over payed due to lack of content, there's shit loads to do and loads of different game types. I'd actually say that's one of the good things about it.

I just feel like I'm playing battlefield tho with laser weapons. And I already have battlefield

FIFA and madden are half price on Xbox just now at $35

I haven't bought either yet. Is Fifa worth it?

[Johnny]

Heard Madden is pish so didnt bother with it this year

[Shteve]

FIFA is decent Sterling once you get to grips with it, can be a proper seethe fest though, basically if i don't win every game I'm fuming worth 35 sheets imo.

[Sterling Archer]

It's 35 dollars so even cheaper than that

[Del-icious]

The passing is horrendous and it's not as good as 15 imo, but everyone buys fifa every year so you may aswell.

Will give you a game if you buy it

[Shteve]

The passing is just more realistic imo, you can't just mash X all the way up the pitch you have to be more precise on who you are passing to.

[Del-icious]

It gets to the point where realism makes the game boring. I'm not looking for an 'arcade' style experience but fifa 15 cut the balance right.

Fifa 16 genuinely feels like you're sitting watching hearts v inverness and it's boring as fuck.

[Shteve]

I get what you're saying, fine balance i suppose, i hated fifa 16 to begin with but it has grown on me slightly, I'm nowhere near as good at this fifa than i was in previous years though.

PS2 emulation could be coming to PS4

I don't think that's quite what they were showcasing.

Reading the reddit thread suggests it won't be a case of take random ps2 game and be able to play it on your ps4. Apparently the PS4 doesn't have the hardware to be able to run PS2 games.

[Steven Toast]

Fucking sick of getting leathered off GA at FIFA.
