T What do these ratings mean?

So the second installment of the Star Wars: Battlefront series, eh?  Well, this game finally solves the first game's biggest problem, we finally get lightsabers.  But I'll go into that more later in my review

Sound:

This game plays the Imperial March on the title screen.  That is good.  So of the levels have good music which you can't hear of the blasters, or your lightsaber, whichever your using.  So I guess I can say that the sound in this game is kind of irrelevent.  The sound that you manage to hear is good, but you still can't here it most of the time!

Section Grade: C

Special Effects:

This is Star Wars, you expect lame special effects!?  The blaster effects are excellent, you can see them with every shot.  Lightsabers, I have one complaint for this, win you hit a door or something no red molten stuff like they have in the movies.  Now, all the other weapons are to unimoprtant for them to be worth mentioning on this, but I do like the sparks that the engineers cutter thingy shoots out.

Section Grade: A

Character Design:

Every Alien race in this game stays true to the series, and the wookies look expeciall awesome.  Can you say A+?

Section Grade: A+

Gameplay:

This game has good controls, but they do bugout once in a while.  This game is really fun too, but its strength lies in multiplayer.  The aiming system is good, and its really fun to go mowing down your allies with yoda whose supposed to be a goodguy.  This section does have a downside.  Playing by yourself gets boring.  REALLY REALLY BORING.  But, seeing as I do have an online adaptor, cant critsize the game for that really

Section Grade: B-

Overall Grade: B+
