I am in a unique position on this forum, I am probably the only person who DOESN'T own Battlefront OR Battlefront 2 on PC!

So why am I here? Not really relevant, but it's in spoiler if ya really wanna know!
Basically I'm asking where I should buy it, with the struggles I've seen others have with Steam and Medieval TW 2, and the annoyances of Napoleon TW's Steam Key I had myself, I'm guessing it's right out as a bad idea.

So that leaves us with Ebay for a Pre-owned Disk, or GoG (GoodOldGames), or sailing the high internet for SWBF Booty! Yarrrr.

I shan't pyrate it however, as A. I bought the PS2 copies (All three of them -My first SWBF1 disk broke) Used. So Mr Lucas never got any of my money that way, (Although he's never going to, that said, didn't need the 4Bil he sold it for, so I don't think he'll mind missing out on my royalty fee) so as it's Star Wars I'm happy to Buy it for the fourth, and hopefully, final, time. (Although Lucasfilm and Hasbro got about a million squids in return for Action Figures before I discovered Ebay)

So which option, is best for modding?

P.S.

I have two copies, both used from Amazon for a few bucks each.
One of them is the older 4 CD, that comes with game build 1.0
The other is the version 1.1 DVD.

I've played them on Windows 7 and XP with the only issue ever was the muffled sound glitch, which is tolerable for me.

I also dislike EA, mostly they always terminate services for games I deeply enjoyed...
But the SWBF series is something you'll enjoy, and way more than the [Bad Word] console versions, that I have had for ages too.

I own the CD version, the DVD version, and the steam version and they all work fine for modding purposes. So it's up to you. For the DVD and Steam version you will just have to use the BF2_modtools_DVD debug program found here: https://sites.google.com/site/swbf2modt ... roFiledump

Instead of the one that ships with the mod tools. That and the different install directories is all you have to worry about.

In my honest opinion, steam is your best bet. It only costs $10:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/6060

Sometimes it goes on sale for 2.99 if you want to wait. Plus why not set up an account right now? You know there is something called the steam summer sale and a freak(I think almost over 8000 titles) load of other games are on sale right now until tomorrow.

O-kay Steam it is then! Thank you chaps!
