Yeah, its cool that they added in cut content from the original games but those can be modded in. It would be 1000x worth it if it was a real collection and ported the PSP games.
I only ever played it on PSP, was there a major difference between the console and PSP releases?

Well BF had 2 spin off games called Elite and Renegade Squadron that had features that the original BF 1 & 2 didnt have. It had like customizable troops in one game and land to space combat in the other. These were features that were planned to be in BF3 but we all know what happened there.

Gotcha, I never did try those spinoff games but I agree a collection with those would have been nice.
The PSP games with modern controls and resolutions would be kino of the highest order. I believe the final PSP game actually had ground to space combat where you could fly straight up to take on the Star Destroyer in orbit at any time. THE PSP GAME HAD THIS.
There are new levels and modes >BF1 now has Jabba’s Palace >BF2 now has Cloud City, Rhen Var, and “Yavin 4 Arena” >BF2 has new characters (Asa Ventress & Kit Fisto) >BF2 has Hero Assault on every level (used to be confined to Mos Eisley)
Those are some really cool upgrades to Battlefront 2. Also maybe it’s just me, but the graphics look a lot better. Even if you have the originals on Steam, this is definitely worth getting (even just for the cross play multiplayer)
All in one "NEW" package that'll seduce newbies into trying it out. I kind of hope it becomes a FOTM game honestly, would be nice to have these games become popular again.
A) not everyone plays on PC. Some of us prefer consoles to gaming, and we can't mod on that
B) some PC players probably don't know or care to mod, want something that "just werx"
Anyone shitting on this needs to reassure me that the game's best moments don't require online play so any existing version is good enough and there was no need for a remaster.
>buy the games I already own physically and digitally AGAIN
No thanks, BF1 and BF2 work well enough even on a modern PC without jumping through hoops. Congrats consolegays.
>Coming March 14 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation5, PlayStation4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam for $35.01, Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection features restored online play for up to 64 players, expansions to Hero Assault mode, and all previously released bonus content for both titles. Steam users will also enjoy Steam Deck support.
There's literally nothing about it being "upgraded", you're literally paying $35 for the exact same game you bought back in 2005 (and some already bought again on steam), so you're now going to pay a third time for the exact same game again kek'd.. it's impressive how fricking stupid boomers are
I hope they don't censor you know what from the game
wdym
PC is supposed to have mod support so we’re all drinking kino tonight boys.

Hopefully they'll also update the engine so it won't switch between resolutions and bigger UI would be better too.

The PSP games were made by rebellion (sniper elite series) so there might be some issues between disney/LucasArts and them.

honestly i feel like half of the reason you'd buy this is to experience the game with a lively playerbase for five seconds
unironically believe that's exactly what they "banking" on
is this gonna be on pc too
kino inbound
will it have 4 player split screen like the xbox version had?
not buying it if it only has 2 players like the trailer implied
>They give [thing] we actually want
>With LAN and modding support
What happened?
trying to undo the damage by EA/disney maybe
I don't get it, what's new here?

Eh, nobody will play it in 2 months
says who
There are already mods for all of this. Literally all of it and a lot more, too. What's even the point?
It’s official so you can play it with friends irl

Im paying for revived multiplayer and new content. seethe
Dude I'm playing to get full servers and hopefully crossplay to keep it that way.
will it be playable and actually have players this time though?
didn't the steam versions already get updates to fix server issues and such? is there any point in buying the new versions beyond a few extra maps?
