There are much better playing and looking 10 year old games out there.

Half Life 2 is from 2004. OG Xbox Halo games are also older than Battlefront II. Those games are much more polished visually and offer more complex gameplay. Part of the problem is Battlefront II was designed for PS2's crappy specs.


Eh 3rd person shooters were still pretty average at the time. Halo and Half life 2 did a lot for the FPS genre. The same thing for 3rd person shooters happened with Uncharted and Gears.

I don't think 1st person versus 3rd person camera is a valid argument. Battlefront II looks and feels terrible compared to notable games of that same period.

There was some okay 3rd person shooters before Battlefront II. Such as Freedom Fighters, MDK2, 007: Everything or Nothing, Headhunter, Punisher, and most notably Resident Evil 4.

Also, I forgot about Unreal Tournament 2004. That game looked amazing for the time and offered large scale battle.


It is just my opinion. I didn't play any that you listed except for Resident Evil 4, due to no interest in 3rd person shooters at the time.

Yeah, opinions can be wrong. I have some knowledge on the subject of 3rd person shooters from the 6th gen, so that's why I am surprised Battlefront II looks and feels bad even for 2005. If it was desigined to take advantage of Xbox or PC specs of the time it would have been a lot more impressive.

One last thing, I forgot about one of the best 3rd person game ever made. Metal Gear Solid 2, released in 2001. Much older and looks amazing compared to Battlefront II.
