"But this prototype is consistent with what we’ve heard about Battlefront III in the past. Free Radical cofounder Steve Ellis said in a 2012 interview with GamesIndustry.biz that the game was essentially complete. He says it was cancelled because LucasArts didn’t want to put money into promotion."

LucasArts must be regretting their stupid decision now after seeing the sales of EA's $hitty Battlefront game.

Randostar3025d ago (Edited 3025d ago )

They have sold over 10 million units on disc. You do realize EA's digital sales outnumber their physical sales by over 70% right? 16-20 million units in a couple of months is pretty successful. I doubt they are regretting anything.

He's saying LucasArts regrets canceling this game, seeing how successful EA's game is.

Randostar3025d ago

Lol Whoopsie. Sorry about that.

DarkOcelet3025d ago

I am saying the game is $hitty not the sales lol.

d_g3025d ago

i wish EA never made that Battlefront game

50$ for a session pass and the game had much less content the previous one

crazychris41243025d ago

What a bunch of morons at Lucasarts. All of the time and money spent on making the game and they cancel it when it's probably months from release.

Now we're stuck with Disney and EA. We waited 10 years for another Battlefront game. Now we have to wait even longer for one that's fun for more than a week.

ColManischewitz3025d ago

I'm still playing it and finding it to be a lot of fun. The balance stinks -- favors those with high-level players.

Walter_Official3025d ago

Yes it is a waste of money but believe it or not marketing is the most expensive part of games.

crazychris41243025d ago

I know but its the 3rd game in a beloved franchise, its going to sell and make its money back easily

Voids3025d ago

Im still shocked it isnt a F2P game already because let's be honest, there's not much "progression" to have fun unlocking when you're blasting everyone with carbines and rifles.

-Foxtrot3025d ago

Looks better then the one we got today...probably more complete aswell

Antifan3025d ago

Wish we got this game instead of that other one.

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

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

GoodGuy09727d ago

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

plmkoh727d 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_vulgaris825d ago

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

Urrakia34825d ago

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

Sciurus_vulgaris825d ago

Yes, Pandemic did indeed develop Mercenaries.

ZeekQuattro824d 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.
