Rumors surrounding the next installment of the Star Wars Battlefront series have been swirling around the Internet for months. However, it's unlikely that most net jockeys saw where the franchise was headed given that its publisher, LucasArts, announced today that its next visit to the BF universe will be a PSP exclusive slated for release this September.
Officially known as "Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron," the all-new project is in development from the UK team at Rebellion Studios (Alien vs. Predator, Judge Dredd) and will offer an all-new storyline in the single-player mode and some of the most robust PSP multiplayer options IGN has seen thus far in the PSP's library.
More information and several all new screenshots available.
Although advertised on the PS Vita storefront as including six games, only one of them can be directly downloaded through the PS Vita. PSP games requiring a PS3 is not new, advertising them on PlayStation Store when on the Vita is.
I've got Star Wars battlefront elite squadron on my vita must have been when they flipped the switch and allowed all PsOne classics on vita hence why I've got metal gear special ops as well but for some reason they turned it off and certain classics and I guess psp games can't be downloaded directly bit stupid but yeah definitely just downloaded Star Wars straight to my vita.
Crappy deal anyway. Old ass and mostly crappy games don't sell for $40. Several of those recently went for just a couple bucks apiece but in this "bundle" they're over $6. LOL nope.
dont care about the price talk, but the vita and not being able to download specific titles is getting stupid, especially if you dont own a ps3. cant remember if you can use pc or not. its also stupid why you cant download stuff on ps4 for the vita.
the store should contain warnings.
anyway for the people who has purchased this game and doesnt have a ps3 to download it. then go to sony customer service and complain. they probably will credit you back the money and even give you the game(s) for free. could be different for us, but uk customer service has been pretty good to me.
Rather than warnings, you simply should not be able to purchase content you're unable to play. IE, if you don't have a PSN account tied to a PS4, you can't buy PS4 games, etc., etc.
They've fixed it now. You can download all of the games on Vita through the Download List.
Graham Russell: "Generally, when you’re looking to play a game with friends, it’s much easier to do it on a home console. With portables, each player usually needs a system, and most need a copy of the game (and maybe some funky cables, if you go back enough). Generally, people haven’t bothered to take advantage of the technology. Of course, if you’re a crazy person like me, that’s more of an incentive than a barrier."
WorthPlaying sat down with Vince Kudirka the producer for Star Wars The Clone Wars - Republic Heroes. Kudirka talks about the game at lengh, including how to use Cad Bane as a playable character.
next gen not hand held come one
Don't know if this will help the PSP's sluggish sales, but it can't hurt, especially if they get the multiplayer aspect right.
products getting special start wars treatment.
You gotta be kidding me....does anyone actually OWN a Psp?!
I think they're just trying to fill the void while they work on Indiana jones and the force unleashed. I think we'll see a next gen BF after those come out.
alright don't care,as long as if it's good online then it'll be alright.
