Pros
Pro Fun team-based combat
Battlefront has fast-paced action and large scale battles between The Empire and the Rebels. There's a lot of shooting involved, so expect to see a flurry of laser beams overhead constantly.
Most of the battles involve taking or holding a location from the opposing side. You can move around on foot or jump using your jetpack, which is useful for scaling walls and hills. You can enter various vehicles such as the AT-AT walker, which makes for great fun.
When you die, you'll respawn after a short delay. This causes it to become a tug-of-war where one side slowly overpowers the other.
Pro Recreates many beautiful movie-like locations
Fight against the Empire or the Rebels in beautiful locations from the films, and visited and recreated by the developers: Hoth, Jakku, Endor and Tatooine.
Pro Split-screen co-op
During a current trend to leave out this feature, Battlefront includes local co-op where you and a friend can fight off waves of imperial troops and walkers. This mode is also available online as well.
Pro Iconic Star Wars characters featured
Play as favorite classic Star Wars characters. Luke, Han, Leia, Boba Fett, Darth Vader and the Emperor are all there.
Pro Gameplay is similar to the original games
The gameplay of Battlefront follows closely with the style of the original games, with fast-paced action and large scale battles for the fate of the galaxy.
Pro Great replay value
The levels in Binding of Isaac are randomly generated. They will have different layouts, monster combinations, upgrades, secrets, and bosses each time you start a new playthrough. You can even change characters to mix up the playstyle, swapping to a really fast but fragile character or a very durable but weak character. As a result, no two playthroughs will ever feel the same, allowing you to replay the game countless times without getting tired of it.
Pro Addictive gameplay that keeps you entertained
Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is very easy to pick up and play with each playthrough lasting about 30 minutes on average. It’s just really fun shooting enemies, collecting treasures, and dropping the occasional bomb, making it really hard to stop playing. One playthrough will turn into ten and many hours will have passed before you know it.
Pro Incredible amounts of content for a low price
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth has all the content of the previous releases and even new content. As a result there are tons of unlockable items, secrets, bosses, power-ups, hidden characters, challenges, and item combinations. There’s just so much to do and try out you’ll be entertained for dozens of hours, adding up to more hours you can spend in a lot of fullprice games.
Pro Character upgrades are really fun
One of the best parts about Binding of Isaac is collecting upgrades and watching your character evolve. This can be nuances in the physical appearance of your character, adding a cute hat, changing its skin tone to green, or even lodging a rock into its skull. It can also be modifications to the way your tear bullets look and shoot, changing their color, speed, firing arc, or even turning them into a massive laser. It’s just really cool seeing your character turn into something entirely different by the end of a playthrough.
Pro Very creepy themes
Binding of Isaac is a story about insanity, religious fanaticism, ritual sacrifices, and even worship of the devil. Once you start paying attention to the various details, it can be genuinely terrifying and dark.
Cons
Con No campaign
There is no single-player campaign; and it seems there never will be. No rich story to go with our current generation Star Wars shooter. Only limited Co-op missions fighting off waves of enemies.
Con Expensive season pass
While some DLC has been free so far, like the Battle of Jakku; EA and DICE set a pricy amount of $50 for the season pass, bringing the total cost to over $100 just to purchase the game and season pass at face value.
Con Randomness can be really frustrating
You can have really bad luck in some playthroughs like finding very few keys, bombs, or coins, causing you to miss out on a lot of potential upgrades. There can also be times when the upgrades you find are bad. In both cases, a playthrough becomes unbearably hard and you probably won’t get very far. It’s very annoying when this happens multiple times in a row.
Con Can be really disgusting
While on the surface Binding of Isaac: Rebirth looks very cute and colorful, it actually has some pretty gruesome details within it. Blood, various bodily fluids, excrement, disfigured flesh, umbilical cords, and many more things that can make your stomach churn.
