There was a DLC which added more maps and characters, but they were an extra thing - not something intentionally left out to be dangled in front of your face behind a pay wall like modern DLCs.
People need to calm down with the hate on SWBF classic addition. Call of duty has the exact same problems every update not to mention Call of duty has hate speech laws and can't stop online cheating.
It may be because I was 7, but I completely agree with the comment about pre-Episode 3 hype. The og clone wars cartoon, boat loads of variety with toys, the video games, the great novels from the clone wars multi media project. Wish I could just go back and bottle that hype.
Finally a man of culture! I saw revenge of the sith 16 times in the theater haha. I was 17 at the time. And yeah the hype was unreal. Battlefront 2, the episode 3 game. It was awesome! I still have an OG battlefront store display in my Star Wars collection that I’ve treasured now for almost 20 years !
2005 really was an epic time to be a Star Wars fan. One of the best years of my childhood! Thank you for reviewing these! Looking forward to playing the classic collection!
At least Pandemic went out in a blaze of glory instead of slowly wrecking their reputation before they close down like Rocksteady, Arkane, Bethesda, etc.
If i remember correctly, it was saboteur that was their "swan song" final game they made. Pandemic made so many games that helped carry the industry back in those days. Its sad to see they're gone but like you said at least its not a sinking ship.
Timeless classics. Games you can hop into and feel like you never left. Still breaks my heart we didn't get the third one. The seamless planet to space travel looked so cool.
The third game was 90% done when it was pulled for them taking to long witch is dumb tbh They were even about to do 4 witch was a what if type game Like kenobi being a sith
on psp elite squadron had space and ground battle it was great ill never play it again as im worried ill ruin the nostalgia but battlefront 2 will always feel like home
@@metroclan12345I’m ngl I preferred elite squadron in some aspects . It still had its own space to ground (albeit with a short cutscene in between ) , the lightsaber combat had some cool features like saber locks , it had an actual coruscant map , I loved the campaign as much lacked from BF3 but it was still cool , the interior of ships was bigger and almost akeen to EAs bf2 interior , you could actually have battles , it also included Ben kenobi as a hero finally , Rahm Kota from FU is there which was just a cherry on top . They also feature grievous vs windu right before episode 3 with a look into what was going on before the movie . I think it’s very underrated and not talked about much . I picked it and a psp up off of Amazon like 6 years ago and played it a lot . I’d totally do it again it was worth it
One thing that people don’t really talk about is Battlefront 2’s “ranking system”. You start off as a private and once you hit mix rank you can command up to I think 3 different soldiers at once. There was also the award system and each award would gain “xp” each time you activated it until they hit max level and become permanent weapon, health, and stamina upgrades
@@poisonapricot no, i havent levelled shit up and can have 3 people follow me. Not bullshitting, i did this in GC BF2 multiple times. Just aim at different NPCs and 3 should follow you. It worked on the PS2 and still works. You dont need to rank it up to use it.
I had a friend in 4th grade (2006) who would always tell me how awesome Battlefront was and I never got my parents to buy it for me. Now's my chance at redemption!
I remember going on the original Star Wars Battlefront 1 website and it had the cool blue font/background that the main menu in Battlefront 1 has and the storm trooper that was on the game cover would pop up and fire his blaster a few times. And in the background the Imperial March would play. You could search for descriptions of the different classes in the factions and the main menu had a countdown of days until launch. The nostalgia is real.
I remember being able to see Revenge of the Sith three times in theaters and I still can quote that movie from beginning to end. What a blast being a Star Wars fan at the time during the 6th generation where we got some of the best Star Wars games ever. These Battlefront games were the best and I still remember playing them for hours on end on Xbox Live.
So many people flipped out about the BF1 loading sound being different in the classic collection When I first played,the sound was there,I don’t know why people were complaining Two hours later I updated it and they took the sound away from me😂
It seems various sounds came out in a deeper or incorrect tone in both the Battlefront 1 and 2 re-releases, tragically. I don't know if that was the sound before compression originally, but if so, give me the that sound back 😭😭
That sound is so nice I never played battlefront 1 I first played two but the one time I did play it I remember that sound and the x wings on the ground combat haha
BF1 is the GOAT. The fact that you couldn't outright kill heroes and had to be strategic - alongside just the vast scale of the map/ battle at-hand - was just something my kid brain loved. BF2 is fantastic, and had plenty of quality of life changes and the ever-desirable heroes mode itself, but the first is just outrageously nostalgic for me.
Not the popular opinion, but I’ve always preferred BF 1 over BF 2. I feel the gameplay had more weight to it (prone was awesome) and Matty nailed it regarding the more focused chokepoints. Still played both games a ton though!
Besides my mother’s old Nintendo 64 with Mario and duck hunt, the first “new” console i owned was a ps2 slim. My dad got it with battlefront 1 and Medal of Honor. Hope they iron out the server issues quickly.
Played so many hours on BF that began fantasizing stories obout units e.g. 501st . Then to a dream come true Republic commando came out give or take a year later.
I think as well the vehicles you can play is incredible. Being a big Star Wars fan the idea of actually driving an AtAt or an AtSt is amazing. Flying around in an x wing or a tie fighter or a Jedi fighter and a droid fighter is great. Just thought I would give the vehicles a quick shout.
I played this a lot with my brother when we were kids, just recently I got Battlefront 2 for my 360 and I'm definitely looking forward to play it soon!
It's a shame Dice didn't simply follow the formula with their games. Give me a battlefront packed with content like og battlefront 2 especially galactic conquest and I'm down to shill 100$ for it.
@@zaidabraham7310missing a lot more than that… just two easy examples are no multi-passenger vehicles and vehicles exploding when you exit them. If you would actually make a comparison chart and compare similarities that aren’t as deep as a puddle; you’ll find that the only real similarity between the classics and reboots is the hero vs villains mode.
My brother and i use to play OG Battlefront 2 & spent so much time with the truly underrated galactic conquest mode.. absolutely loved it and still have it downloaded for good times with friends & family.. not sure why they released such a gem with a messy launch full of bugs, server woes, crashes etc.. will skip and wait for a patch and a sale..
Great games! The “Classics” designation makes me feel old, but it’s accurate for these titles. That said, I’ve seen reporting that the remake’s multiplayer servers are in shambles. Really disappointed that the effort wasn’t invested to really show off these prestigious games!
Bruh it came out 20 years ago. 20 years before that Mario Bros on the nes came out and was definitely considered a classic game in early 2000s. It's okay that you're old
It doesn't even make since to me since all aspyr had to do was sinplu port the games over (should be easy and quick to do, since the game is already made) and make sure the multiplayer servers are as functional and optimized as possible. It leads me to question what they actually did with all the time they spent working on this
Had one pre-order with a scout trooper action figure as the pre buy bonus. Good times. Yes i used hint lines when it could be charged to the phone line and not cc. I got a few strategy guides that way....and mowed the lawn for a long time.
Great Video, Nice to hear the game talked about from an O.G. Player. Oh the many many hours I spent playing these games. Would Love to revisit myself, but I am one of those Dinosaurs who if there is No Physical Disc, they get No Dollars form me. Yes, a Battlefront retrospective would be awesome, DO IT!
I was introduced to Battlefront in like 05' when I was 10 when my mate at the time gave me a PS2 demo disc that had a few games on it and Battlefront was one of the games. You could only play one round of GC and it was on the forest moon of Endor but man did I play that to death.
Had to pull out my PS2 OG copy. The back is the same except for the middle text. Mine says: “Fight as a soldier in the front lines where every weapon and vehicle you see is yours. Take the Empire head on or crush the Rebellion - by yourself or with an army behind you!” Interesting that that is what they had changed for the platinum hits, and typo’d no less Edit: also no learn more about battlefront 2 of course
My brother and I rented this game one day and absolutely loved it. Would rent it as often as possible then when 2 came out, we got our mom to get it for us.
I love these (and other multiplayer games of this era) because it’s just pick up and play. You can hop in after a long break and have fun, or hop in and play for like 20 minutes and have fun. There’s no overly long path of unlocks, no bonus cards you have to equip, no weapons you have to upgrade, no loot boxes or battle passes. The game is the game every time you log in and that simplicity is part of what makes it so great.
When i was kid i would play one game on my dad's ps2 and that was lego star wars 2. Then one day i decided to look through my dads disc collection and there it was the first battlefront and one of the first few games i would ever play.
My cousin and i play bf2 together. We usually play as the clones. The "cheat" is just only using garrisons and not unlocking troops, because you unlocking them unlocks them for the enemy. To make it harder we say each land battle we have to unlock someone and we only can get a bonus after a space battle
Needs some serious network AND main game fixes. So far, I've had my immersion broken by AI not being as smart as it was on the original game, random crashes, noises glitching out and becoming bass boosted, noises playing with the wrong cues, lack of singleplayer post mission cutscenes (aswell as the cutscenes that are in are super compressed and lagged), BF1 being for the most part under worked on, glitched player models (mainly the rocket trooper), etc.
What are the good things from the modern battlefronts in your opinion? I would only bring the customization and battle point system for heroes and reinforcements only. I don’t like the lightsaber combat or gunplay from any battlefront. Production quality like graphics, sound design, etc; should already be there from a game releasing in 2024 and beyond.
Man I wish the collection came out solid. I refunded it to wait for it to be fixed more and hope they add a way I can play with my homies in the same game instead of just me hopping into random games solo with bugs and just ugh I wanted this to be hit. These games are my childhood feels like how gta trilogy was fumbled.
Never owned Xbox so have been unaware of this until the recent releases on switch, interested in checking them out but seems like heavy online focus which isn’t really my jam tbh. Keep the videos flowing
I do think BF2 is the better game but the battles in BF1 always felt bigger for some reason. BF1 is also harder which I like, I can actually lose matches against the AI which almost never happens in BF2.
Played bf2 first and later picked up bf1 both great games. Bf2 is definitely better but the og is still fun to play. Had so much fun playing the bf2 campaign with my bro.
There was a mod for Battlefield 1942 called Galactic Conquest that released a year or two before Star Wars Battlefront, and while Battlefront was a more polished take on the mod, it felt more limited and obviously the resolution and quality lowered to meet console standards. Between Jedi Academy with all the unique mods (I remember the security risks) and Galactic Conquest, Battlefront didn't really give PC gamers anything we didn't already have. It did get console gamers one of their first tastes at a Conquest Battlefield-esque mode with vehicles though.
I agree on the prequels as that’s the Star Wars that I grew up on. That being said, I’d like to share my thoughts on this retroactive look at them. I don’t think people changed their minds. I think when the films came out, critics and people who wrote websites and made memes were kids of the 70s and 80s. People who grew up on the OG Star Wars. Whereas now, those of us writing articles and making videos grew up on the prequels. I just think you’re seeing the difference in a new generation and its mindset taking over.
@@johnnyknadler1157 honestly, I’ve already seen it. Comments on videos from people saying “the sequels weren’t that bad” and videos about the best parts of the sequel series. But yes…yes they were😂
It’s not that good. Broken servers, terrible net code, glitches. Everything. It’s terrible. Watch some reviews and do some research before you comment.
What? If we're talking about the originals, than that second statement doesn't make a lot of sense. Which, even in the context of talking about the re-release; I wouldn't call it a cash grab. They could've re-sold you the original games as-is for $10 each just like they did with all the other games. This is just a re-release of the originals, but with the added DLC content that was exclusive to Xbox Live (which isn't even available on the Xbox backwards compatible ports) and server hosting because the backwards compat ports don't have matchmaking and the PS2 servers are dead. Zero reason to buy this on PC. I'm not sure why put it at almost the same price as the console releases, on PC, when you can get the original Battlefront 2 for like $10 and manually increase your settings to max and download mods to get all the restored content. Only reason to get the collection on PC is for Battlefront (1) matchmaking and the visual console menu for Battlefront 2 because the PC port doesn't have the movie clips playing in the background - which isn't a real reason to buy, but it is great to see again. The difference between this and the previous re-releases is that this is the two games bundled together at roughly $20 each, so you HAVE to pay the $40 even if you only wanted to play one of them - as well the restored content and matchmaking which obviously needs to be fixed ASAP but they did just launch this and I'm having a blast playing the Battlefront 2 campaign again. Which plays like absolute shit on the 2005 release on PC. The re-releases are pretty much there for and targeted at console users who just want a blast from the past with optional couch-op modes and hopefully fixed servers in the future.
Unfortunately TCC is a mess, the amount of multiplayer issues is expected but the singleplayer and base game issues? There should be little to non wtf. Needs some serious network AND main game fixes. So far, I've had my immersion broken by AI not being as smart as it was on the original game, random crashes, noises glitching out and becoming bass boosted, noises playing with the wrong cues, lack of singleplayer post mission cutscenes (aswell as the cutscenes that are in are super compressed and lagged), BF1 being for the most part under worked on, glitched player models (mainly the rocket trooper), etc. I've luckily had a ps2 to use to compare the OG's and this. So far the ps2 version wins.
That's weird I thought the Battlefront 1 maps were bigger and more fun to play. Rhen Var Harbor and Citadel, Kashyyyk Docks, and Mos Eisley Dune Sea are a few that are the best.
As someone who's played both these games for countless hours back then, I must say: They were the sh*t! Damn near had everything one could ask for in a Star Wars multiplayer game! Really hope Aspyr fixes the online soon.
I just got the classic collection since I never played battlefront. I had high hopes for battlefront 2 because of everyone saying it was the better of the 2. Sadly I'm disappointed because battlefront 1 is a lot more fun.
100% worth buying on console. 0% worth buying on PC. It’s Battlefront classic, it’s perfect in that regard… but online is a mess, don’t even touch online.
I never had internet as a kid. I played so much offline content for both games, im really disappointed to hear that the multiplayer servers are trash. Thats the only reason i was gonna buy the new ones hoping for a huge revival. I already have the original copies, so it doesnt make much sense for me to invest in the re release
The multiplayer on the classic edition is a huge headache, it’s so laggy and it’s like enemy’s don’t have a hit box sometimes. Hope they fix it fast or this game will die.
This game shipped COMPLETE. No over the internet updates, no patches. It was ready to go when you bought it. The good ole days
i quit gaming on consoles when that first started to be normal late ps3 days era i comepltely quit never touched or bought a console again greatest thing i ever did fuck consoles idiot greedy shit company losers charging u 79.99 for a game u can get for free with ray tracing and better ultra setting 4k quality for free on the pc and guess what no game pass playstation plus or subscriptions required to online game with pc u just go online with internet and game all day for free to fucking extra internet service charge wtf how did u console gamers become such push overs and let them companys dick you like this
There was a DLC which added more maps and characters, but they were an extra thing - not something intentionally left out to be dangled in front of your face behind a pay wall like modern DLCs.
We will never see those times ever again. Sadly.
games did get patches....but they were later disc versions, same with any console. NES - N64 - the switch
ETC
People need to calm down with the hate on SWBF classic addition.
Call of duty has the exact same problems every update not to mention Call of duty has hate speech laws and can't stop online cheating.

First time I ever saw the game was on a bonus dvd that came with a build your own lightsaber kit my parents got me for Christmas in like 2004

So far, I've had my immersion broken by AI not being as smart as it was on the original game, random crashes, noises glitching out and becoming bass boosted, noises playing with the wrong cues, lack of singleplayer post mission cutscenes (aswell as the cutscenes that are in are super compressed and lagged), BF1 being for the most part under worked on, glitched player models (mainly the rocket trooper), etc.
Mine keeps crashing. I've gone back to bf 2 2017
Mine on Nintendo Switch is working fine so far.
It's not call of duty I haven't played online yet ps2 didn't have online neither
I just play the original xbox version on series X. Way better experience that way
I hope one day we have a Star Wars FPS that has the best of both classic Battlefront and modern Battlefront
What are the good things from the modern battlefronts in your opinion? I would only bring the customization and battle point system for heroes and reinforcements only. I don’t like the lightsaber combat or gunplay from any battlefront. Production quality like graphics, sound design, etc; should already be there from a game releasing in 2024 and beyond.
@paulallen2680 customization and battle points
You could get access to those DLC maps using mods on PC.
Love these games! The battlefront 2 EA version is absolutely fire!!!
Yea played that latest one and is good
Wish I could find a game on battlefront 2 (2017) but the PC servers are dead
@RippaRat no theyre not.
@@KingofKran Aha yea I guess I did find one game of co-op missions...
@@RippaRat try playing blast….i get whooped out by sweats on the daily in that
Man I wish the collection came out solid. I refunded it to wait for it to be fixed more and hope they add a way I can play with my homies in the same game instead of just me hopping into random games solo with bugs and just ugh I wanted this to be hit. These games are my childhood feels like how gta trilogy was fumbled.
I still pop the 2nd one in from time to time still a great time i never played online though
Let’s go!!!!
Never owned Xbox so have been unaware of this until the recent releases on switch, interested in checking them out but seems like heavy online focus which isn’t really my jam tbh. Keep the videos flowing
BF2 weapons would get buffed at a certain point in kill streaks with it, the pistol was insane
I do think BF2 is the better game but the battles in BF1 always felt bigger for some reason. BF1 is also harder which I like, I can actually lose matches against the AI which almost never happens in BF2.
I remember playing and loving the first and when i found the 2nd at eb games i was like: THERES A SECOND PLEASE BUY THIS DAD XD
Would love to see a republic commando video
I mainly bought it for the campaign, so I haven’t experienced any bugs yet
I have battlefront 2 on Xbox one already I don’t really play online should I get this is there extra content ?
Played bf2 first and later picked up bf1 both great games. Bf2 is definitely better but the og is still fun to play. Had so much fun playing the bf2 campaign with my bro.
They took off the inverted feature in the control section after an early morning update on the first day release
I remember picking up battlefront 2 used and when i got home it had the battlefront 1 disc in it...
There was a mod for Battlefield 1942 called Galactic Conquest that released a year or two before Star Wars Battlefront, and while Battlefront was a more polished take on the mod, it felt more limited and obviously the resolution and quality lowered to meet console standards. Between Jedi Academy with all the unique mods (I remember the security risks) and Galactic Conquest, Battlefront didn't really give PC gamers anything we didn't already have. It did get console gamers one of their first tastes at a Conquest Battlefield-esque mode with vehicles though.
I agree on the prequels as that’s the Star Wars that I grew up on.
That being said, I’d like to share my thoughts on this retroactive look at them.
I don’t think people changed their minds.
I think when the films came out, critics and people who wrote websites and made memes were kids of the 70s and 80s. People who grew up on the OG Star Wars.
Whereas now, those of us writing articles and making videos grew up on the prequels.
I just think you’re seeing the difference in a new generation and its mindset taking over.
So if we follow that pattern, in the future it will be people who grew up on the sequels
@@johnnyknadler1157 honestly, I’ve already seen it.
Comments on videos from people saying “the sequels weren’t that bad” and videos about the best parts of the sequel series.
But yes…yes they were😂
@@michaeldrake798 didn’t people use to think the prequels were bad?
That missing 'e' saved them a fraction of a penny on each copy. George Lucas: always the penny pincher.
Is the game that good? Yes. It is a shameless cash grab? Also yes.
Most of the gaming industry nowadays is a shameless cash grab
It’s not that good. Broken servers, terrible net code, glitches. Everything. It’s terrible. Watch some reviews and do some research before you comment.
Is it*
What? If we're talking about the originals, than that second statement doesn't make a lot of sense. Which, even in the context of talking about the re-release; I wouldn't call it a cash grab. They could've re-sold you the original games as-is for $10 each just like they did with all the other games.
This is just a re-release of the originals, but with the added DLC content that was exclusive to Xbox Live (which isn't even available on the Xbox backwards compatible ports) and server hosting because the backwards compat ports don't have matchmaking and the PS2 servers are dead.
Zero reason to buy this on PC. I'm not sure why put it at almost the same price as the console releases, on PC, when you can get the original Battlefront 2 for like $10 and manually increase your settings to max and download mods to get all the restored content. Only reason to get the collection on PC is for Battlefront (1) matchmaking and the visual console menu for Battlefront 2 because the PC port doesn't have the movie clips playing in the background - which isn't a real reason to buy, but it is great to see again.
The difference between this and the previous re-releases is that this is the two games bundled together at roughly $20 each, so you HAVE to pay the $40 even if you only wanted to play one of them - as well the restored content and matchmaking which obviously needs to be fixed ASAP but they did just launch this and I'm having a blast playing the Battlefront 2 campaign again. Which plays like absolute shit on the 2005 release on PC.
The re-releases are pretty much there for and targeted at console users who just want a blast from the past with optional couch-op modes and hopefully fixed servers in the future.
Yeah I wish we could have gotten this years ago but at least we have it now
Battlefront 1 was the first game I played with Camera controls
The Star Wars Battlefront 2 remake is amazing.
Unfortunately TCC is a mess, the amount of multiplayer issues is expected but the singleplayer and base game issues? There should be little to non wtf. Needs some serious network AND main game fixes. So far, I've had my immersion broken by AI not being as smart as it was on the original game, random crashes, noises glitching out and becoming bass boosted, noises playing with the wrong cues, lack of singleplayer post mission cutscenes (aswell as the cutscenes that are in are super compressed and lagged), BF1 being for the most part under worked on, glitched player models (mainly the rocket trooper), etc. I've luckily had a ps2 to use to compare the OG's and this. So far the ps2 version wins.
😂😭didn’t know you had another CZcams channel
Of course
My favorite games of all time of course it's good
Kevduit ahhh thumbnail
My copy of Battlefront 2 Platinum has the same misprint lol
Finally someone with good sense who understands Episode III is the best of the Saga.
That's weird I thought the Battlefront 1 maps were bigger and more fun to play. Rhen Var Harbor and Citadel, Kashyyyk Docks, and Mos Eisley Dune Sea are a few that are the best.
As someone who's played both these games for countless hours back then, I must say: They were the sh*t! Damn near had everything one could ask for in a Star Wars multiplayer game! Really hope Aspyr fixes the online soon.
Yes it is!
This makes me wanna play the new battlefront 2 lol
I don’t see any problems when I’m playing on my switch OLED I love ot
I just got the classic collection since I never played battlefront. I had high hopes for battlefront 2 because of everyone saying it was the better of the 2. Sadly I'm disappointed because battlefront 1 is a lot more fun.
100% worth buying on console. 0% worth buying on PC.
It’s Battlefront classic, it’s perfect in that regard… but online is a mess, don’t even touch online.
I'm 100% with ya Matty revenge of the sith is the best.....as soon as I saw a double lightsaber I was a fan of prequels
Yes.
The old Battlefront games is pretty good. Also, have you tried the Halo games on the channel yet?
10:06 stormtrooper, scout trooper, dark trooper, ewok burger, cheese burger.
wow the menu is very futuristic like
Yes
I never had internet as a kid. I played so much offline content for both games, im really disappointed to hear that the multiplayer servers are trash. Thats the only reason i was gonna buy the new ones hoping for a huge revival. I already have the original copies, so it doesnt make much sense for me to invest in the re release
Remember how lego star wars came out before revenge of the sith? So i knew the story before seeing the movie haha.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 Is The Best Star Wars Game!
my bf2 copy on ps2 had an ad for bf3 in its manual, sad how poorly it aged
The multiplayer on the classic edition is a huge headache, it’s so laggy and it’s like enemy’s don’t have a hit box sometimes. Hope they fix it fast or this game will die.
Pls do a db fusions review (and a xenoverse)
