Star Wars Battlefront 3 in Development?

I read a rumor earlier today via: IGN that Star Wars Battlefront 3 had been contracted to California-based developer Spark Unlimited. This would not be a good thing. Their track record is mediocre at best with the console conversion of Call of Duty being their best game. Their other games Turning Point Fall of Liberty, and Legendary are both trainwrecks. I hope Lucas Arts doesn’t want to give them another train to wreck. Let’s hope it’s not true, and if it is that they’re not the lead developer.
