I'm going to get myself an XBox1 and was thinking of getting the game for my son, who is a Star Wars freak. Is this game worth getting? Thanks in advance!

Probably for your son, yes. It doesn't have a single player campaign. It is completely a multi-player game. It was a poorly reviewed game. For valid reasons, but should be good for a young kid.

It plays well and it definitely scratches that itch for Star Wars fans. Just not a really deep game. Haven't played it in months but it's good fun.

It leaves a lot to be desired, but I liked playing the Fighter Squadron games

It's a fun game and is pretty immersive as a Star Wars fan. Just not a whole lot of depth to it as the production studio was rushed to get it out by the time the movie came out. I played it for a few months and enjoyed it though.

It's a good game, it just lack some content. No single-player campaign, having to buy the season pass to access all of the content.

However, what is there is phenomenal, the graphics and sound are amazing. You don't have to have the season pass to enjoy it.

I wouldn't call a 75 on Metacritic "poorly reviewed."

For the price it is now, yes.

I like it a lot and still play it almost weekly. I really don't need a campaign which seems to be the biggest gripe by gamers. The gameplay and graphics are great. They are constantly adding to it although the majority of the DLC content does come at a cost.

Overall it is very fun to play.

It is the only game I have ever redboxed and taken back within the hour.

But if it's on sale i would consider it, especially for a kid.

I wouldn't call it a "good" game, but it definitely isn't bad.

As a star wars fan, your son will love it. Audio and visually the game is pretty stunning. First time you play on Endor you will be pretty amazed. Controls are tight and pretty user friendly.

The biggest issue is the lack of depth the game has. However, I'm sure you can get it pretty cheap right now, so I would definitely recommend it for any star wars fan.

My kids really liked it but have been playing it less. I enjoy playing once in awhile.

Not to be a jackass but you should probably hold off until the new Xbox system comes out next year or roll with a PS4 Pro.
