the first review of the game is out on IGN as usual, read it here. (http://pc.ign.com/articles/688/688963p1.html)

Snippet :

"What really stinks is that the actual gameplay isn't exciting enough to support the setting. Admittedly, the developers are hampered by the two-sided nature of the fight and by the limited roster of units, but there's just no escaping the sense of repetition that starts to kick in after the first few hours. You'll still enjoy seeing the units fight it out in front of your eyes but you just won't care as much about the tactics of it all."

And a patch is already out for it here. (http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/689/689012p1.html)

As kinda predicted in my own mind the gameplay sucks.

*sigh* I gave up on Star Wars as my Sci-Fi Franchise of choice, I'd rather focus on Warhammer 40k these days. They really need to make a movie . . .
