A look into the troubled development of Star Wars Battlefront 3. It asks how such a popular game series based on one of the biggest sci-fi franchises out there fade out of existence?
The friendly folks over at Razer recently sent us their full size Kishi Ultra mobile gaming controller, and this thing didn't disappoint.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
The Epic Games Store continues to dish out free games and you can add two more to your library this week.
George Lucas is a fat bastard with no chin. That's what happened. Making those crappy lego games and that crappy Kinect game (Which NO BODY WANTED mind you) was such a good idea...
Why dont they just make it already?They know its guranteed almost to make a profit... and its been asked for almost 6 or 7 years...
Haze killed it, Free Radical was doing it and shut down because Haze sucked so bad. Pandemic then got the game, but Lord Of The Rings Conquest sucked and so they closed down too, then Slant Six got it, but they had to lay people off and it ended up being Operation Raccoon City, which still has some BF3 coding in it.
"It’s a real shame that Battlefront III never came out and frustrating that it’s unlikely to come out in the future.
Lucas Arts, if not for the fans do it for the money."
Words well said.
Honestly, at this point, I'm scared of what a BFIII would even turn out to be like during this age of games. Too many successful franchises out there that are almost guaranteed to have some impact on the way the game plays... For example, whatever dev ends up making it will probably try to sell out to the Cod crowd which will end up feeling nothing like the original BF games. I really hope it won't be that way, it it's really hard to think differently considering how many times it's happened to other games.
