According to UK development sources, Rebellion proposed to LucasArts that its PlayStation 2 version of Star Wars Battlefront III could form the basis for both 360 and PS3 versions of the game.
Is Star Wars Battlefront 3 coming? Well, the correct answer is yes, no and maybe. It’s been six years since the second instalment, and fans are still waiting for confirmation of another sequel.
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.
Someone has just revealed images proving that there was supposed to be a Star Wars Battlefront III for PSP.
Oh yea battlefront games were on the psp weren't they? And force unleashed as well. Great "handheld" versions those were.
Battlefront III in PSP is just Elite Squadron, was never cancelled. The start up menu is even the same same with X1 and X2.
Clever Star Wars fans have uncovered yet another piece of Free Radical's Star Wars: Battlefront 3, exploring the game's tutorial level.
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.
Free Radical didn’t make Star Wars Battlefront 2. The long defunct Pandemic Games developed the original Battlefront 2.
Thank you sir, I appreciate the correction. Pandemic also developed Mercenaries I believe, right? That game too is a classic!
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.
If the retail version of Star Wars Battlefront 3 doesn't look as good as what Free Radical had designed, gamers and media will crucify the game and it wont sell worth cr@p. Unfortunately, this "how can we do it for less money" attitude with publishers will continue to rear its ugly head. I call it the "Wii Effect" why make good, quality, hi-def, AAA titles when you can just push out shovelware that will make more money. Hell, even Nintendo does it now (Wii Music, anyone?)
So lame!
Instead of releasing guaranteed hit like Battlefront 3, the geniuses at Lucas Arts released Fracture? Some one put this company out of its misery.
nobody seems to know lol
So a PS2 port....to next gen consoles? EPIC FAIL if true.
