Great game. It is very easy to lose track of time when you're playing in huge battles online. This game actually makes you feel as if you're actually in the battle, not just playing as a character in it. There has already been a patch released for the Xbox version (Patch is availible via Xbox Live) that addresses some OptiMatch problems, with another patch in the works to address some performance problems also.
My only complaint is that the ground-based vehicles (AT-AT, AT-ST, AT-TE, AAT, Combat Speeders, etc) are too strong. Not with their attacks, but with their resistance to weapons. They take a long time to destroy, even with several people with rocket launchers firing upon them. The air-based vehicles (X-Wing, Y-Wing, Snowspeeder, TIE Fighter, TIE Bomber, Geonosian Fighter, Cloud Car, etc) are too weak, they are destroyed very easily, especially in air-to-air combat.
Overall it is an extremely good game, definitely worth a purchase if you're a big online gamer. If you don't play games online, you might want to skip this one, because the single-player game is basically the online game, but without any challenge (human players).
