"These are games that must make an appearance at this year's E3, or they will be presumed dead or dying. This time there are some sequels among the 10, and as always if you've seen new information about them, or have other missing games to add to the list, let us know in the comment section below."
List includes Doom 4, Perfect Dark 2, Halo Chronicles, Star Wars Battlefront III, Age of Conan etc.
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.
I'm more interested in Wolfenstein than Doom. Could Doom 4 be better than Dead Space?
Some of those less known titles are interesting too...but look like they need polish (and maybe publisher help?).
Man Age of Conan for 360 has been taking forever...surely it must show up at E3?
That Darkest Days civil war one looks cool and my fingers are crossed for Halo Chronicles and Doom 4.
I know for a fact there's news about Section 8 at E3...
But I'd love news about AoC.
I dunno about Doom 4. They hyped Doom 3 so much and then I was bitterly disappointed when it finally came out after those years of development, I doubt I would be interested in Doom 4.
E3 will FAIL this year if Doom 4 is not announced/previewed/shown officially.
while going through these games I could see plenty of potential for the console, irrespective of platform. There's several others that have also gone MIA unfortunately. WHich is quite common with games these days.
SOme simply go into hybernation and pop back on the radar a few years later or simply fade away into the background.
BUt several of them could well be up for a mention at E3 this year, as many of the bookings we have with the various publishers could shed some light on them, we'll be sure to ask, that's for certain.
