THIS GAME DOES NOT WORK ON LEOPARD 10.5 MACS. Yeah.
It works fine on Tiger, and I don't know about Snow Leopard.
It's loads of fun, though. I like it much better than it's sequel.Was this useful?

Star Wars Battlefront
Great multiplayer
Written by PJ from Madison
Dec 1, 2009
ive gotta say i was really happy with the gameplay offered by this game. At first i was skeptical about playing games on a computer, i had aways used consoles. However, i started playing this and i was amazed, thats just with single player. Then a couple weeks later i discovered gameranger. All the people that say Call of duty 4 doesnt have enough servers then you are wrong. Anyway, i started playing multiplayer for the first time in my life. I havent played single player since. I recommend this game to anyone who likes first person shooters.

Battlefront Will Not Load
Written by NK from Sarasota
Jun 19, 2009
I just received Battlefront, bought it from the APPLE. Loaded the program, went to ASPYR to see if there were any patches and down loaded. Low and behold the program will not load. Have uninstalled it reinstalled it attempted to contact ASPYR...No luck yet. I am running Leopard 10.5.7......Very FRUSTRATING! Never had these problems when installing games on my PC.

Ok

Don't get me wrong
this is a great game. it is excellent for gamers that are just entering the FPS world. but for more hard core FPS gamers who are used to great graphics and a melee system you should look else where. I recommend call of duty 2 or 4. or if you really like to play hard core doom 3. I hope this helps.51 of 84 people found this useful

Star Wars Battlefront
leopard...
Written by KE from Cupertino

I am a big fan of battlefront and when i saw it for mac i had to get it. I have the new mac book 2008 with nvidia graphic card, but this game just didn't get threw. Instead of hitting the icon to start up the game you have to go to package content to start it up. People say its a leopard thing. Another thing i can't change the resolution, i mean i am stuck with 800x600 when i want to go larger. If anybody knows another way to change it please email me

This is one of the best games ever and if it wont run then go to the star wars application and right click it then hit package content, then open mac os x in the content and finally hit star wars battlefront twice. that will make the game work. Happy gaming!

Doesn't Work

This game DOES NOT work with Leopard 10.5.5. Unless there is a fix, it will NEVER work. WASTE of MONEY!!!! ASPYR never takes things seriously. They won't actually do something about this.

great game
Written by HM from Seattle
Feb 20, 2008
this game is fun but the fighters are difficult to fly. i reccomend that u don't usethe gunship & the seperatist "gunship". all of the other fighters are fun, especially doing strafing runs & bombing runs of the enemy. the graphics r decent but they could be better. the gameplay gets somewhat boring after a while with only a few places to go. also there is not many choices fro being a soldier :(
apart from that it is a great game :)109 of 194 people found this useful

Good Game
Written by BC
Dec 29, 2007
This is a REALLY GREAT GAME!!!!! I like it except for a few disadvantages. I owned the second one for PC and it was ok except for being SUPER laggy. I was hungry for a fast game that was simaler to this game. When I bought it, I loved the levels that you could not access during the second game. On the other hand, You cannot play as a jedi (I think) and cannot do space battles. Some of the up sides are that you do not have to earn your units and new words that you might not of seen in the movie. If you're like me and want to switch to a great, smooth running shooter, this is the game for you.
P.S. I agree that they should make star wars battlefront 2 for the mac because of the great gameplay in that game as well.176 of 255 people found this useful

Star Wars Battlefront
Excellent for when you're bored of other games
Written by NW from Arlington
Nov 17, 2007
This game is great on the BOOM side. There are many exciting ways to kill an enemy. You can grenade them, hop in a vehicle, shoot, place mines, or even target airstikes. The factions are also differentiated enough not to seem alike. The Droideka is a great blasting tool, the Clone jet trooper is like a commando, and the imperial dark trooper is a great fast-mover and assault trooper.Me being a strategy fiend, I bought this game and grew bored of it within the week. However, I invited my less classy friends over to play it, and they of course loved it. (I stick to strategy games) It's got highly addictive gameplay with many ways to kill an enemy.That's why it's kind of a "backup" game when all else seems to be boring. Even though Gameranger is the most horrible service ever, this game has got great replay value lasting anywhere from 2 months to 2 years. I would definately buy Battlefront 2 for mac if it came out.

Star Wars Battlefront
NO MULTIPLAYER!!
Written by JB from Durham
Oct 2, 2007
So, I'm a new MAC convert. And first off, I LOVE MAC! I even have the iPhone! :-)
So, I saw Battlefront and figured, "why not". Been years since I played it and I always liked it. So I bought it. Now, I have an Intel Mac, but I read the reviews that modern Intel Macs can easily play this game.
So, when I got home, installed it, launched multi-player. But to my surprise there are NO MULTIPLAYER SERVERS! Nobody was hosting any games. NONE AT ALL. That was the best part of the game, multi-player.
Single player is HORRIBLE! Not only is the AI horrible, but the maximum resolution this game supports is 1024x768. ICK!
And when you get into intense fighting the game slows down to a crawl! I have a 2.4ghz iMac with 4GB RAM, ATI HD Video Card. This a new iMac 1 month old, and this game is barely playable!
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! I now have a $40 coaster...43 of 95 people found this useful

Works fine on Intel for me

Works fine for me...and I am using an Intel Imac 1.83 with the 128mb video card and 1Gb ram. Fun and quite playable. It's great fun making your friends do the 'thermal detonator break dance'... Game ranger adds a nice way to set up multiplayer games with more than two people.

This Game Rocks
Written by RH from Albuquerque
Sep 30, 2006
All I have to say is, wow. I love this game. I've had it for almost a year and i still haven't got bored of it. For one, you can add so much on to this game. You can download new maps and install them to the game. And multiplayer rocks, but can get laggy sometimes,
And for you Intel Mac users, i recently emailed Aspyr and they are planing to make a patch that will make Star Wars Battlefront Universal, so just sit tight.366 of 574 people found this useful

Battlefront now works
Written by MC from LEEDS
Sep 29, 2006
I have been really frustrated with the lack of a patch from Aspyr to make this game run on intel machine. I just did a software update on my macbook taking it to 10.4.8 and it makes Battlefont work. Great!!!!! Slow on a 1.83 macbook though. Can be speeded up by tweeking some of the video settings.
