Lightsabers are cool, as is having all kinds of crazy Force powers like levitation and crazy senses.

Lightsabers are cool, as is having all kinds of crazy Force powers like levitation and crazy senses. But...it must be said, if you're looking at the original (best) trilogy, the guy who used all that stuff, one Luke Skywalker, well... he's a bit of a whiny pansy, isn't he? Han Solo - now there's a guy you want running around trying to save the galaxy.

That, you'll be pleased to hear, is what Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron is all about. Han Solo has gathered an rag-tag bag of battle-hardened renegades to take on some of the most secretive missions of the Rebel Alliances war against the Empire. Players will travel the galaxy, from the Valley of the Sith on Korriban to the remains of Alderaan and all the space you can fly a ship through in between completing missions and fighting the good fight.

What makes Renegade Squadron different is the high level of customisation players will encounter. Don't worry, there will be plenty of balls-to-the-wall action, but strategically choosing the right gear to outfit your character with will be key to completing a mission. Choose your weapons (with a limited number of credits) badly, and you'll find yourself a gooey mess on a Stormtrooper's shiny white boot. << less
