I'm paraphrasing.

But I am nearly ready to cast off Battlefront 2's ground game entirely, due to the sole fact that I am ten times better at Starfighter Assault. Criterion seriously needs to be allowed to spin it off into a separate game.

I am consistently in the top five, MVP every few matches or so, and that has never happened on the ground for me.

I got the original Battlefront 2 on my PS2 a week ago and have been having SO much fun with it. It's interesting how it was more focused on the Empire, I.E., how the Clones became Storm Troopers, over EA's 2nd Battlefront game. But I've had a lot of fun with this sequel, seeing it as an improvement over the 1st in many ways, though, I won't lie, it doesn't exactly hold up well, and that's not just for the graphics.
