Product Description

Star Wars: Empire at War: Star Wars:
Empire at War puts the power to command an entire war for the Star Wars galaxy in the hands of players, giving them the freedom to determine how they play the game within the completely scalable and accessible gameplay. Set a few years before the events of Episode IV A New Hope, LucasArts' new PC game lets players wage war on ground and in space, as well as experience the creation of the Rebel Alliance, the strengthening of the Empire and the beginnings of the Galactic Civil War. All of the gameplay and action within Star Wars: Empire at War is persistent, meaning that strategic and tactical elements from previous events will have a permanent effect on the galaxy. In addition to the single-player campaign mode, the game includes a two-player campaign mode and online skirmish modes for up to eight players.

Forces of Corruption:
The rebels have just destroyed the Death Star, and the galaxy is in turmoil. As an aspiring underworld figure named Tyber Zann, spread corruption throughout the galaxy using new strategic gameplay elements to influence other factions, steal their funds, slow their production, spy on them and more, all en route to becoming the most notorious criminal leader since Jabba The Hutt. Exciting new land-tactical options like customizable, upgradeable bases and guerilla warfare allow for innovative battlefield tactics. Take command of and confront new fighting units for all factions (rebel B-Wings, Imperial Tie Interceptors, Darth Vader's Executor Super Star Destroyer and more), and take down anyone who stands in your way of ruling the underworld, be they new battlefield heroes like Luke Skywalker and Yoda or the forces of you most bitter rival - Jabba. Destroy capital ships with the awesome firepower of the second Death Star, and satiate Tyber's drive for the deadliest capital ship in the galaxy, a devastatingly powerful Super Star

Customer Reviews

a good buy
This game combines both star wars empire at war and the expansion forces of corruption. The game is a mix of star wars galactic battle grounds and games from the total war series. It has simiular domination featurs as total war games but it is not turn based like total war games. It then uses tha battle features like star wars galactic battlegrounds to create a good mix of tactics and action. Overall i gave this game 4 stars as it could be improved in various areas and doesnt quitw match up to the scope of other games. All in all though a good buy.

Gets boring, fast.
Although this game is great to begin with, it does tend to get very boring so I found myself incapable of playing this game for longer than 1 and a half hours.
