29. Star Wars: Battlefront (PS2)

Battlefront is basically every Star Wars fan's wet dream. Players choose a side in the Galactic Civil War and proceed to duke it out across huge, sprawling battlefields: Yavin! Hoth! Endor! Cloud City! Even that wretched hive of scum and villainy the U.S. House of Representatives Mos Eisely! And if you happen to be the sort of slow-in-the-mind who thinks The Phantom Menace is the height of cinema, fret not. Those shitty prequels you love so much are well represented, too. With four factions, a number of troop types, tons of vehicles to jack, and the sweetness of Galactic Conquest Mode, Battlefront was a triumph in every since of the word. It's a true wonder that we haven't seen a PS360 sequel, as the series seems custom made for this online multiplayer-centric generation. Sadly, in accordance with George Lucas' strict policy that nothing good shall come of his precioussss ever, ever again, the two attempts at making one ended in failure and the deaths of many Bothans. But we'll always have this piece of Star Wars gaming bliss, at least until Darth Goiter finds a way to inject Hayden Christensen's CGI likeness into each and every copy.
