[This review is based on the Anniversary Edition Mod made by "giftheck", and may not reflect elements based on the base version of the 2004 version of Star Wars: Battlefront.]

In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the very first entry of the Star Wars: Battlefront series, "giftheck" has delivered an outstanding mod that brings a fresh new vibe to the original 2004 game, ranging from a reworked infantry class system for a more balanced experience, new gun models that resemble those found from the films, altered background scenery on some map locations, the addition of several land maps seen from the second Battlefront game, different faction heroes depending on the map that is currently played on, and new sound effects & music tracks. These additions have made a game that was once great, to a game that is absolutely brilliant and immersive to play in.

Of course, there's always still some room for improvements, like the reduced movement speed for the Assault-class infantry, the repetitive radio chatter that keeps on going whenever using an AT-ST on the first-person camera, and the preview videos not working for both the additional BF2 maps included in the Anniversary Mod as well as any custom maps that come with map preview videos (e.g. any of Sereja's maps). But I'm quite sure that the mod's author is well aware of some of the elements that need addressing through upcoming patches.

If you want to revisit the very first Battlefront, but with a new fresh spin to the original game that doesn't take too much away from the vanilla experience, then I highly recommend playing the Anniversary Edition mod. The mod itself is available to download via the ModDB website.

Without a doubt, a fantastic remake of a classic FPS that sometimes even surpasses the quality of standards from Valve's own Half-Life games. I've never thought the development team of Crowbar Collective would had have the stride in pushing themselves to finishing their own retake on the original Half-Life 1 game, but I was proven wrong. It just goes to show that if you take your time to carefully work on a dedicated project instead of going through rushed development, you can create a wonderful masterpiece, and Black Mesa is just one of those true examples.

Cheers to Crowbar Collective for their hard-earned collaborated works on the development of the Black Mesa game. You've really deserve it with my respect.

I can't believe that the Season Pass just didn't live up to my expectations. Out of the three DLC packs that come with this game, only the Far Harbor DLC campaign had a decent load of content, that's somewhat enjoyable to my perspective. However, that isn't going to stop me from recommending other people to avoid buying the Season Pass of Fallout 4.

When you look back into the downloadable content that is seen from both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, they actually provided a hefty load of replayability and fun factor with the DLC campagins coming from both these games. It's definately no doubt that I've enjoyed a lot with Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas in terms of the standalone games and the downloadable content.

At least for me, I was able to buy the Season Pass of Fallout 4 on its initial price of almost 30 US dollars before Bethesda Softworks suddenly increased the price to almost 50 US dollars for some reason which I don't get.

But take it from me, if you are really going to purchase the downloadable content from Fallout 4, it is wise to think ahead first if it's really worth it to consider buying Fallout 4's DLC.

This seems to be an okay skin pack. I'd especially liked the Kold War costumes for Sonya and Sub-Zero, but what bothers me is that Kold War Scorpion is not present? Why the hell is that? There's needs to be an explanation for missing Scorpion's Kold War outfit.
