This is one of the best RTS games I have played in years. Great sound, great graphics and everything that a star Wars fan could hope for. I can't wait for the expansion pack. It has all of the units as well. I really recommend this game. Brilliant.

This game is a really kool game, there should be more like it. I am mad on star wars, so when this game came out i got it & its got every thing. At last I can use sith lord or jedi's which is kool. I can't say much more about it. In 7 words it's a kool game, so get it.

This is a superb edition to the RTS genre. Great music, hundreds of authentic units and perfect gameplay. Comes with all of the great star wars weaponry noises as well such as the hum of lightsabres and the steady whap of the X-Wing's lasers. I recommend that you buy this game as soon as possible, even if you don't like Star Wars. Fantastic!!! Score: 9.5Readers Review by B Pearson
I'm a big fan of Age of Empires so I bought this on the strength of those games. I wasn't disappointed at all. All teh elements of the films are here plus so mean gameplay. Haven't quite got used to the fact the enemy can now fly (unlike AoE 2). Well worth the money whether you are a Star Wars fan or not. Score: 8.5Readers Review by Bobby G
I love this game. I can't get the theme music outta my head! This is my first real-time strategy game and I can't believe what I've been missing. The AI is very good and I really feel up against the clock. I can't mess around when playing the computer or the damn thing overwhelms me every time! The Empire is bad but Wookiees kick ass :) Any Star Wars fans will love this and it's made a new convert to RTS games. I recommend this game. Score: 9Online Review by Inside Mac Games
