| | | The Expansion Pack for the Award-Winning Star Wars: Empire at War Game! Empire at War let gamers play the light side or the dark side in an epic Galactic Civil War. Now, for the first time ever, Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption introduces a unique point of view - the corrupt side. The Rebels have just destroyed the Death Star, and the galaxy is in turmoil. As an aspiring Underworld figure named Tyber Zann, spread corruption throughout the galaxy using new strategic gameplay elements to influence other factions, steal their funds, slow their production, spy on them and more, all en route to becoming the most notorious criminal leader since Jabba the Hutt. New land-tactical options like customizable, upgradeable bases and guerilla warfare allow for innovative battlefield tactics. Take command of and confront new fighting units for all factions (Rebel B-wings, Imperial TIE interceptors, Darth Vader's Executor Super Star Destroyer and more), and take down anyone who stands in your way of ruling the Underworld, be they new battlefield heroes like Luke Skywalker and Yoda or the forces of your most bitter rival - Jabba. Destroy capital ships with the awesome firepower of the second Death Star, and satiate Tyber's drive for the deadliest capital ship in the galaxy, a devastatingly powerful Super Star Destroyer known as the Eclipse.

Star Wars: Empire at War won considerable critical acclaim at its release back in February. The first Star Wars-themed strategy game to really nail the subtleties of the genre, it melded space and ground-based tactical combat with an innovatively implemented interstellar strategic game. Forces of Corruption is Empire at War's first expansion, and quite simply it's a corker. But what it does best isn't the way it adds a creative, original third side to the classic two, nor the decent added campaign or the extra units all round. No, Forces of Corruption's best feature is exploding Ewoks. - Mike Smith
IGN 9 of 10
Last year's Star Wars: Empire at War seemed like a surefire hit. The gang at Petroglyph managed to translate the popular Star Wars franchise into a real-time strategy format, recapturing the magic and appeal of all those backyard action figure wars we fought as kids...Petroglyph seems to have taken all of those criticisms [of the original game] to heart and improved on nearly every single aspect of the game. What's more, they've managed to make all the necessary improvements to the original design while still creating loads of entirely new content. Those who disliked the repetitiveness of the original game will definitely appreciate the new faction, the new campaign and the units and abilities. - Steve Butts
