Moon Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 There is also a brand new review up today, from Firing Squad. Quite in-depth and very well written. Check out our Review page for more details: CMBB REVIEWS PAGE Also, PC Games and IGN gave us Editor's Choice Awards along with the ratings, so I guess we can't complain really...

Terrapin Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Originally posted by Quinxi: Very good ratings but they should by higher in my opinion.It always happens for more "specialized" games when they have to review them for the general audience. They usually cover this by saying "if you're looking for something different try this, and if you're a fan of the genre, go buy this now", or something. Translation: "It's a 10/10 for fans of the genre, 8/10 if you're not" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin[/QB]That IGN review is the reason I found out about the game. I don't really read strategy fan-sites or mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignus Posted December 3, 2002 Author Share Posted December 3, 2002 Moon... Is this Martin? As in Martin Turewicz? You guys are up there with Sid Meier thus far in my opinion. Keep up the good work!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yggdrasill Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Originally posted by Ignus: You guys are up there with Sid Meier thus far in my opinion. Keep up the good work!!![/QB]I'd say quite a few rungs above Sid IMO. I loved the Civs, especially 1 and 2, but the man was just too greedy. Example: after 6 years of development, Civ3 wasn't even multiplayer when first released. That was simply milking for every last penny. Battlefront doesn't do that. They put out quality products and patches. AND they engage their customers, something that Sid has never done to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignus Posted December 3, 2002 Author Share Posted December 3, 2002 ygg, I apologize... I thought that would be good enough for most people, but then again... Can't please everyone:) The bottom line is... Battlefront IS good. That's all I wanted to say.
