| I just wanted to know what everyones favorite planet was. Since I just finished playing Battlefront the Hoth one and I was thinking how that is my favorite planet in Empire I wanted to see what other people's opinion was!

Considering the weather around here reminds me of Hoth...not so much!
Dagobah: nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.
Bespin, now there's a planet for me. Cloud City is awesome (unless you're defending the platforms on "Battlefront" ) From the design of the city and interiors to the fact that the only way to get around is flying...Bespin is my planet of choice!

Bespin... absolutely beautiful... just as long as the repulsors didn't give out and the bloody city didn't crash into the planets surface 
Hoth... too cold... nice place to fight a battle, but I definately wouldn't want to live there. Frostbite isn't very pleasent.
Dagobah- absolutely not. I've trained in swamps; they suck (so do the leeches). Plus the snakes... water moccassins especially.
My choice is definately Bespin

Definitely Bespin. Awesome sunrises/sunsets. The carbon freezing chambers are cool (no pun intended) and the dining rooms are lavish. Plus you know they still have ICE CREAM there.

Yeah, but how often do you go touring industrial work sites?
"Come on kids, let's go check out the waste treatment plant" 
Think about how out of the way the freezing chamber is on the Bespin level of "Battlefront"...by the time you get there, the fight is over.

Lol. Great. I can see it now. Krash will now reference everything to Battlefront, right?
BTW, I voted for Dagobah. I hate big citys (all Bespin is) and I hate the cold (all Hoth is) so it was really the only choice.

Not to mention Echo Base battlefront is the coolest with the At-ATs!!!!

"Well this one time...at band camp" 
Given our recent weather, definatly wouldn't want to call Hoth home.  (frelling cold out there)
Best way I can think of Bespin would be like living on a giant cruise ship. Practically everybody has a balcony view, unless your room in is the lower decks of the ship, and I just like the overall style of the city. Granted, I'm not a huge fan of BIG cities either (I don't think I could live in NY) but the beauty of Bespin is that everything (we see in the movies) doesn't feel like a huge landscape.

Technically, Cloud City since I wouldn't want to actually live on Bespin. 
The reasons are similar to those stated above.

Now the real question... original release Bespin or digitally enhanced more picturesque Bespin... hehe
I'd go with digitally enhanced... cooler sunsets.

Yeah. One of the few changes made in the SE editions that I actually liked.

SE all the way...love how they were able to open up more of the city, to take advantage of the skyline!

| I agree on the SE, even though I didn't really like all the new fly-in stuff they added, I did like the inclusion of all the windows.
