Fun fact, that Geonosis background in the thumbnail is literally just a picture of Albuquerque, New Mexico, you can literally see the city near the bottom of the image.
@seriousnesstv7902 There's a lot more than looks that makes something like textures be a larger size. There is also new content, ported content between the games, an entire MODERN online client, sound files, etc.. I would agree that they could do better with compressing said files, but games aren't small anymore, especially not when they have to be updated from an engine that had no intention of being used beyond those releases.
The justification for the price mainly is the dedicated multiplayer support and expansion on multiplayer modes. Right now there are pretty much only servers for multiplayer on the originals but this new version from what I have heard will support multiplayer for almost all of the game modes. That’s huge
Agreed, that and if they can update/improve the gamepad support, that'd be a big selling point for me. I have the original steam versions and using the Xbox 360 controller was really clunky, menu navigation was bad since the joystick simulates mouse movement if I remember correctly. If it can just work properly out of the box similar to the original Xbox version that'd streamline things a lot, especially when playing on Steam Deck.
@@jesterdewit478 What a genius insight, good job son. But anyways, I already have Battlefront 2 classic edition on steam. I don't want to have to buy a much more expensive re-release.
dude I have no hope. We still have the originals, you can still play online with friends or even randoms. It runs well on modern systems. We don't need this, especially not a low effort wanna be definitive edition at that price point.
I hope they don't go the Call of Duty 4 Remaster way in 2017 and add in loads of microtransactions after 2 months of release. The game ended up being 124GB large with 62GB with the campaign and 62GB for the multiplayer because of the added, weapons, camos, and operators
My excitement completely dropped TwT, especially since they used ai, they could of contacted a modder or just left it as is, there are multiple graphics enhancing/texture replacement mods they could of asked to use.
@als5548 That was never a problem, unless PC players unskilled with controller aiming played a console version against other PC players. Halo master chief collection is a good example of it not being a problem
unless they can make you pay for something, they are not gonna add It, There is no use for them in you having crossplay. The only mission here is to sell the game on day 1 and then abandon. Thats how games work now.
50 GB is insane. Im honestly kinda getting sick of this trend where devs give no fucks in correctly compressing their textures so the game stays a reasonable size. Like these are not 4K textures, they are upscaled PS2 assets. The entirety of Baldurs Gate 3 is 150 GB, Elden Ring is 60 GB. A Battlefront remaster collection has 0 excuse to take up this much space. Just no, fuck off with that shit.
Apparently later in the trailer both Kit Fisto and Asajj Ventress use the updated animations. (40 seconds into the trailer) Perhaps Aspyr was just showing both a combination of placeholder and newer footage in the trailer?
FUCK Aspyr! Their Switch version of KOTOR had a game breaking glitch for KOTOR 1 where the Korriban puzzle room was unable to be completed due to dialogue error. YEARS of people reporting it. Their fix? "Oh, open cheat menu and cheat", we wont fix it via patch. Cheats didn't fix it either, just told people there was a cheat menu. My save is still stuck in that puzzle room.

For anyone who doesn’t know both games (without online play) are already backwards compatible on the Xbox One and the Xbox Series X. All of the DLC is included.
I discovered this last year and I was surprised I was able to play the DLC as I never had it on the original Xbox. Rhen Var maps were my favorite from the first game.
Honestly I would get the game for the online play, mainly because they shut down the servers when they made it backwards compatible for Xbox One. I do have a copy of Battlefront 2 on steam, to try and do multiplayer with my friends, but we have been having problems with our private matches crashing mid match. And I have downloaded mods for battlefront 2, though I make sure to verify it is a safe site
Congratulations on 1M subscribers Justin!! Been following your channel since 2019 with the star wars ship breakdowns and Halo and Star Wars versus videos. Your channel has come a long way, and I believe there's so much more to come! Keep up the good work man!
Can you go online? Even if you could, could you find enough people to play with?🤣 Stop bitching I thought it was gonna be around $50 you sound like a spoiled little kid, if multiplayer doesn't matter that much to you then I get it but this is clearly a game where people are almost never gonna want to play alone and 35 bucks isn't bad, go buy the original ones online you'll end up paying close to the same (if you're smart and don't buy the scratched up disks they sell for cheaper prices) ngl I'm tired of mfs acting too entitled and privileged like how much do you think they should sell both CLASSIC games with all dlc and better graphics with multiplayer play??🤣 Gotta be trolling
Honestly, I’d take a complete rebuild on a newer engine while not changing the core aspects of perks for doing good n stuff. I’d be fine paying as much as most games now are priced at cause the OG are and were genuinely fun. I’d much prefer them over the newer Empire era games. Taking down the Jedi temple was beyond fun
Agree 100%. A simple modern remake that improves the graphics and tunes and expands the gameplay is all I want. Ideally in a perfect world I’d want stuff like new maps, new units, skins, new vehicles, new hunt modes, a hero selector, a mission selector, and my number 1 addition: an early empire/ order 66 era with Jedi and clone stormtroopers as factions.
@@regishwadum No there were several attempts before he came along and none were as good. Most were shitty reshades with super high contrast. A few rezzed maps were decent. But nothing like HarrisonFog's work. What's he done is a TC and completely professional grade quality, and he's iterated on it several times. What you see now is probably his 4th or 5th do-over of the maps and the graphics mod.
I would have preferred this Collection be $20. As far as $35 goes, I would be much more willing to 'bite' at full price if they included fully restored/revived Battlefront: Renegade and Elite Squadron games. As far as the storage goes, it's still ridiculous that it's 4x the size of the original games. I constantly hear the argument of "Hurrr storage is so cheap these days, it doesn't matter!" as if everyone 1) has the money to dump on a new hard drive for more storage, 2) has the available ports or space to add another hard drive, and 3) can realistically justify spending on a new hard drive just for one game. This is in reference to people running on limited sub-1TB SSDs or HDDs, such as people with laptops or old/low-budget PCs. Hell, even the consoles. Plus, for those with slow internet, or limited internet, this is gonna be a bit of a hard sell due to the slow AF download speed to begin with for such a large game/bundle.
Very few ppl on PC are going to pay $35 for this. Most of us barely go above that for full release games. Really stupid of them, it's not going to sell well on pc, because the originals are still there for a couple dollars.
I really think all these “issues” are being blown out of proportion in classic internet fashion. The price is not that much, the file size is a non issue and the mod part can be patched in. Not worried about the sub 1000 player count for the last many many years with the OG versions. I have many great memories playing these games on Xbox live back in the day and I’m excited to be able to relive those moments.
Hey Eck, I’ve loved your channel since you were at about 50k subs. I knew right away that you’d make it to a million i’m just surprised it didn’t happen sooner. Congratulations! Keep up the amazing content and may the force be with you.
nah, because the vase majority of people who buy the game don't give a rat's ass about having original textures that look like shit nowadays. should be the other way around - default upscaled, option to have originals in the options.
@@shade221 It does...? You opt into the download of the absurdly large AI upscaled textures only if you want them. the extra 50GB isn't forced on everyone.
@@ianism3 That's fine. Can be opt out too. It shows up in the steam DLC list and if you dont care for the 50 GBs of AI slop textures you can just unselect it and it's deleted. Imagine giving people a choice.
Worth noting the Switch version is actually 25gb and on sale for $31 until release day Still unreasonably high but atleast they did some compression to cut it in half there and are offering a preorder sale
That's a lot better, and is the only version i'm particularly interested in (never had the PSP handheld BF games, so this will be a cool way to play it handheld after all these years)
As someone who played ps2 and staying on console till a year and half ago moving to pc. I’m glad it isn’t crossplay. PvP Fps games shouldn’t ever have controller vs mouse unless lobbies are broken by input.
My biggest question is steam already has BF1 BF 2 on it. What happens with those? I may have missed if you had covered this but I didn't fully hear it mentioned. Or I just wasn't paying attention
I got my OG disk copy of Battlefront II in 2006 for £1 from a market stall (re-realising how much a STEAL i got since for another £1 I got EAW: Gold Edition from the same guy… legend.) Many years later, I justified to myself getting the Steam version for the ease of modding. I paid £5. Asking that much for such little improvement is bonkers.
I'm thinking of buying the Steam version in case they actually try to delete it like Eck mentioned. I have the original Xbox and Xbox 360 version, but I haven't used an Xbox in so long.
The old battlefronts are what we wanted. What almost all of us really wanted was the graphics to be updated, that’s it. Not the whole game revamped and changed
Not really. I think the thing everybody wanted is for both games to be in a single "package" just like in DICE's Battlefront II, in which you can just hop in any era, be it Clone Wars or Galactic Civil War. With Classic Battlefront you would have to switch games for that, which is a big problem, since the second entry has a bigger player count and the gameplay is much different. We just need the game to unite both playerbases, and, I hope, this Remastered will do it. I would say even the graphical improvements are not really needed, - original graphics hold very well today and you can't go beyond simple textures upscaling to make a complete overhaul without creating a complete remake.
Dark Forces got a remaster recently. On Steam you could get it in a bundle with the original for no extra cost. Maybe they'll do something like that with this.
The same reason COD bloats to 250GB. Lazy devs, skipping any optimisation because they can. Lazy cash grab or a rerelease for 20 year old games instead of backwards comparability on console. Disgusting.
Fr people will complain about these companies and lazy cash grabs until the day they die and then something like this overpriced ass bundle will sell like hot cakes
I have never seen or heard of your channel before. It looks like you got to 1 million subscribers in the past week and thought I’d say congrats! That’s super cool.
@amefan6030 Off the top of my head, every port before KotOR has a broken aspect ratio. Republic Commando has unplayable performance on Switch and buggy AI. KotOR battle chatter was removed, the UI was ported over directly from the mobile version, and they added a game-breaking bug. KotOR 2's TSLRCM was never brought to any version (this was the primary reason anyone bought this release), they're currently being sued over it. Let's just say this isn't the first time they've stolen a modder's work without their permission. Plus they added in several game-breaking bugs that took nearly a year to patch. Need I go on? The TFU port was actually solid though. A blind squirrel, am I right?
yeah the 50 gigs bit is a complete dealbreaker. The price is whatever, 30$ isn't that much for two games, even older ones and you can always wait for a sale. But 5x the memory needed? I'm not wasting my time, bandwidth, or hard drive space on that. Memory bloat has been a serious problem in AA/AAA gaming for a while now. 50, 70, 100+ gigs for a product that 10 years ago could easily have fit under 20 just for imperceptibly higher resolution textures. What a joke
Very disappointed to hear it’s gonna be 50 friggin gigabytes, one of the reasons I keep this game on my computer is cause it’s not a lot of gigs and it’s fun, so this really is sad to hear cause that’s a lot of space. There are friggin AAA games that come out these days that aren’t even that much, most computers come with a terabyte drive
1:26 50 GB is actually just over 4 times the size of the two original games (total 12.39 GB). 4 times bigger is still surprising, but saying "almost a 5 times increase" was just bad math.
Honestly can't wait for less grey textures tho. And there will be new content, well kinda, every platform will have access to the DLC's which was only available for the original Xbox. And FINALLY hero assault on every map. Another fun note is that the main games were updated not too long ago, might just be because they had to in order to make this bundle?
Fun fact, that Geonosis background in the thumbnail is literally just a picture of Albuquerque, New Mexico, you can literally see the city near the bottom of the image.

Well hello Polish !

You’re forgetting that it’s a downgrade in terms of split screen. Xbox had 4 player split screen this version only supports 2 … 19 years later.
Then consider this collection a failure already

Who TF wants to play 4 person split screen ?? That's hardly an issue.
@@ZSTE Sounds like something Joe Biden would say. Not that I'm complaining. :)
To be fair, it's two more than the PC releases - which never had splitscreen, despite having hardware more capable of it.
Ah, 50GB. Good to see they're taking the Bethesda approach of not compressing texture files AT ALL.
Or maybe there's 2 full games with modern textures, effects, and new models?
@@j.d.123the models look the same so yeah this is lazy

So they basically stole all the new content? Feels weird man
I have never seen or heard of your channel before. It looks like you got to 1 million subscribers in the past week and thought I’d say congrats! That’s super cool.
WOOT! 1 million subscribers!! Congratulations, buddy. Love your channel.
AI was used in the development of this bundle?! And they have the gall to charge $35 for it?! Now I’m definitely not buying it.
fr, they literally reskinned with AI, and are gonna add online servers, thats it. Such a failed company attempting to nostalgia bait
@@arlwavDon’t cry about it, we’ll be happy without you guys
@@notBrocker enjoy getting profitted on by a company that doesnt give af about u
@@arlwav Sure, if I can play my favorite games again I’d be happy to give them some money for it
@@notBrocker fair play
Literally the laziest, most incompetent dev I've ever seen. They've never made a decent Star Wars port. Save your money and time.
@amefan6030 Off the top of my head, every port before KotOR has a broken aspect ratio. Republic Commando has unplayable performance on Switch and buggy AI. KotOR battle chatter was removed, the UI was ported over directly from the mobile version, and they added a game-breaking bug. KotOR 2's TSLRCM was never brought to any version (this was the primary reason anyone bought this release), they're currently being sued over it. Let's just say this isn't the first time they've stolen a modder's work without their permission. Plus they added in several game-breaking bugs that took nearly a year to patch. Need I go on? The TFU port was actually solid though. A blind squirrel, am I right?
Hate to say I told you so, but people really need to let this disgusting company go out of business already.
Congrats on 1m! Love your work!
Happy 1 million!
Congrats on the million subscribers!
ive been here since you had 2000 subs ! now a million!!! :D
Thanks for sharing Eck 👊
Congrats on the million, I already pressed the button long ago and it’ll stay pressed as you keep climbing!
Congratulations on one million! Best SW channel on the internet!
Sorry for not having subbed earlier! Great content!
yeah the 50 gigs bit is a complete dealbreaker. The price is whatever, 30$ isn't that much for two games, even older ones and you can always wait for a sale. But 5x the memory needed? I'm not wasting my time, bandwidth, or hard drive space on that. Memory bloat has been a serious problem in AA/AAA gaming for a while now. 50, 70, 100+ gigs for a product that 10 years ago could easily have fit under 20 just for imperceptibly higher resolution textures. What a joke
And within 5 hours of uploading this video, you're at 1 Million. Congrats, good sir.
congrats on 1mil well deserved
CONGRATS ON A MILLION SUBS!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Congrats on 1mil bro
My biggest complaint as a PC player is the lack of crossplay. Hopefully the servers stay populated for a long time!
dead on release if theres no cross play with og release atleast
@@TimayyIt’s a top seller on steam lol dead at release my ass
Congrats on 1million!!!
CONGRATS ON A MIL! BEEN WATCHING FOREVER AND SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU THERE!
Pre ordered on my switch, and then on my next check I’m buying it on my Xbox so excited!!
Happy 1 millions subscibers mate!
Very disappointed to hear it’s gonna be 50 friggin gigabytes, one of the reasons I keep this game on my computer is cause it’s not a lot of gigs and it’s fun, so this really is sad to hear cause that’s a lot of space. There are friggin AAA games that come out these days that aren’t even that much, most computers come with a terabyte drive

congrats on 1 mil!!
Congrats! Be checking in and out of your channel over the past 7 or so years man. Im glad your getting some success!
As I clicked on this, you already passed the Mill! Congrats on this milestone!
Congrats on 1 million!!! Well earned!
Even with a texture upgrade, it's not dazzling enough to warrant 50 freaking gigabytes of storage. Sounds poorly optimized.
1M subscribers congrats eck
Happy 1 million!!
Congrats bud! Subscribed when you were 200,000. Long time fan!
Congrats on one million subs, I’ve been watching you casually for so long. I’m glad you’ll finally be getting that gold play button :)
My Therapist: Eck's podcast voice isn't real. It can't hurt you.
UA-cam:

Congrats on 1 mil!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations on one million!
I love this channel! I am sorry I didn't sub sooner!
Congrats on hitting 1 million! It's nice to see a Star Wars tuber succeeding!
Congrats at finally hitting one million! You've earned it man!
Congrats on ONE MILLION!
CONGRATS ON 1million subs watched your videos for a while so awesome to see you get to this milestone
Congratulations man… 13 hours after post and you’re over 1M BIG UPS
1:26 50 GB is actually just over 4 times the size of the two original games (total 12.39 GB). 4 times bigger is still surprising, but saying "almost a 5 times increase" was just bad math.
So awesome to see you having 1 mil subs
Been follow8ng you for so so kany years and damn. Congratulations. Well earned.
Congrats on 1 Million!!!! You still deserve so much more
congrats on 1m🎉🎉 you deserve it
Been watching a long time Eckharts. Congrats on 1 Million subs!! Much deserved.
Honestly can't wait for less grey textures tho.
And there will be new content, well kinda, every platform will have access to the DLC's which was only available for the original Xbox. And FINALLY hero assault on every map.
Another fun note is that the main games were updated not too long ago, might just be because they had to in order to make this bundle?
