Initially part of the efforts to crush the Separatist forces during the Clone Wars, they find themselves on opposite sides of the civil war that follows in the wake of the Empire's formation. These droids aren't programmed to handle X2's deadly 'strafe right and hold down the B button' maneuver.Įlite Squadron tells the tale of twin brothers X1 and X2, unique among the members of the Clone Army in that they were cloned from the genetic material of a Jedi. While that campaign provides an interesting tale and a heady dose of Star Wars atmosphere, the gameplay is just too bland to be worthwhile. Unfortunately, the multiplayer aspects are so limited and disappointing that the focus goes to the single-player adventure. But the latest game in the series, Elite Squadron, has indeed been released on the DS. The Star Wars: Battlefront series has always been known for its large-scale multiplayer battles, which makes it a strange candidate for release on Nintendo's handheld.
