At worst, they’re pandering and awful.Īggressive NegotiationsDICE puts this great look and feel to use in a messy mountain of modes. And at best, the hero character performances and movie one-liners are weird and distracting. DICE’s original score, for example, occasionally blends brilliantly with John Williams' original music, but sounds so wrong at times that I frequently turn music off entirely. The incredible audiovisual experience is so convincingly authentic that anything out of place stands out vividly.

Battlefront looks, feels, and sounds like the original trilogy in almost every way, from the scorch marks on X-wings to that specific spark and puff of smoke of blaster fire impacts. Cleaner textures, plus improved lighting and visual effects sell the exceptional aesthetic even better. Battlefront's stunning visual fidelity is even stronger on PC thanks to its modifiable settings. There is an immaculate attention to detail in Star Wars Battlefront, making it easily one of the best-looking games of the generation.
