"exclusive footage" is usually followed by of "upcoming game" lol thought I somehow missed the announcement of SWBF3 for a minute there :P

Considering this was being made quite a while ago it's pretty impressive and that somewhat glimpse of him flying so high towards space made me really wanna see the space to planet battles they were talking about.

Anyway, that was kind of awesome.

have faith young Padawan SWBF3 will arrive Next Gen!!!

May the Force be with you!

Lucas Arts needs to hurry up and release this.

DeadlyFire4133d ago (Edited 4133d ago )

You mean DisneyArts right?

I do agree. They need to make Battlefront 3 happen. I just wonder if DisneyArts will listen to fans more than Lucasarts did.

Battlefront 3, Jedi Knight 3, KOTOR 3 all need to happen.

Don't BS me with JK3. JK2:JA was not JK3. :P

Disney won't squander the licencing like Lucasarts did. Disney paid billions for Star wars, you better bet they're going to use it.

I expect to see many of the fan demanded games in the next couple years. Likely starting with BF3. But that's all personal opinion.

"Disney won't squander the licencing like Lucasarts did." They are gonna milk it for all its worth... And its all gonna be more kid friendly. They'll also most likely change all the lore around as well.

aliengmr4132d ago (Edited 4132d ago )

This depends entirely on which way Disney wants to go. Honestly I can't even guess what they will do.

Disney bought the rights to one of the most lore heavy sagas around. My first questions:

1. Do they recognize any responsibility for it?

2. How will they control it?

When/if those are answered we might have a better idea on their future plans. I'm not worried about them making it any more "kid friendly" than it already is. What worries me is Disney steam-rolling 20+ years of lore.

Only thing I feel comfortable predicting is that whatever they decide to do with the movies games will surely follow.

But until Disney proves otherwise, I'm going to assume that the established SW franchises (BF3, JK, etc.) won't be making a come back. LA has lost all credibility, and until Disney hints on getting involved with SW games then I have to assume business as usual.

Side note: I'll bet the sale to Disney was why 1313 was previewed well before it was an actual game.

I could totally see they recreate Battlefront for the new movies.

this is like putting salt on a wound.

Game companies are not mature enough to handle this concept without turning it into a casino.

shadowknight203127d ago

The remakes of battlefront should have been more simular to the originals. CoD/battlefield reskinned as Star Wars was not the anwser.

"Images of Gameplay" noted in the article.

Proceeds to only show Menu screens

GoodGuy09714d ago

Oh yea battlefront games were on the psp weren't they? And force unleashed as well. Great "handheld" versions those were.

plmkoh713d ago

Battlefront III in PSP is just Elite Squadron, was never cancelled. The start up menu is even the same same with X1 and X2.

After all these years, Free Radical's SWBF2 is still the best overall Star Wars game to me. It had everything you could want in big fun team battles, Jedi vs Sith and the space battles were extremely well done giving you the ability to land inside a capital ship's hangar to sabotage and take it down from within.

Sciurus_vulgaris811d ago

Free Radical didn’t make Star Wars Battlefront 2. The long defunct Pandemic Games developed the original Battlefront 2.

Urrakia34811d ago

Thank you sir, I appreciate the correction. Pandemic also developed Mercenaries I believe, right? That game too is a classic!

Sciurus_vulgaris811d ago

Yes, Pandemic did indeed develop Mercenaries.

ZeekQuattro811d ago

I wish that IP would make a return. The original was better but its the second one had its moments. You could pretty much level anything in those games if you had the right armaments.

This is just Battlefront Elite Squadron. Cancelling it was the right move, very few changes to Battlefront 3 except for a new forgettable campaign.
