Star Wars: Battlefront is a first or third person video game based around battles featured in the Star Wars films. It was developed by Pandemic Studios and LucasArts, and released on September 21, 2004 for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Microsoft Windows, the same day as the release of the Star Wars Trilogy DVD set. Aspyr released a Mac port in July 2005. People can either play Battlefront online with up to 50 players on PC (contrary to the stated 32 player limit), the Mac version has a limit of 16 players as does the PS2, or off line with up to 2 players. The Xbox version has a limit of 32 players.

A sequel, Star Wars: Battlefront II, was released on November 1, 2005, for Microsoft Windows, Xbox, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable. In late 2004, LucasArts released the Star Wars Battlefront BFBuilder, an unsupported mod that allowed fans to create new battlefields for Battlefront. It also has the side files that allow it to have mods.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Unlimited health or ammunition
Stand, crouch, or lay near any one of the replenishment depots. Camp there with a sniper rifle and keep firing.

Battle Of Geonosis: Sniping location:
First, choose the CIS and at the beginning of the battle choose an Assassin Droid to start off in the Spire. Then, jump into a Geonosian fighter. Fly the ship to the side of the Spire which faces the Republic outpost and the derelict. You will see a ridge where you can land the ship. Land it and start sniping. The only problem is that you must fly the ship back down to get more ammunition. Note: You can also do this trick as the Republic, but is more challenging.

Battle Of Geonosis: Destroy Trade Federation ships faster
Get into a Republic ship and fly to the Trade Federation ships. Fly directly to the top of one and look down. Aim at the top of the fuel cells and fire. You will be able to destroy them faster.

Battle Of Geonosis: Killing Jedi
Play as any kind of Battle Droid and get into a Hailfire Tank. Roll over Mace Windu with it. When you are rolling over the Jedi, make sure you get enough speed and try to hit him with the middle part of the Hailfire Tank, where the cockpit is located. He should be killed. At the bottom of your screen, the message "You've killed Mace Windu" should appear. It also works when you are the Republic, but you must steal the CIS' Hailfire Tank. Note: Be careful not to kill your team's Jedi.
