For anyone who doesn't know, on Thursday 15 January, footage of Star Wars Battlefront 3 made it out onto the internet and subsequently IGN. This footage showed things such as: A ship being flown from ground level Coruscant flying around several Clone Star Destroyer things and then going up into a space battle and flying round more Destroyers and viewing the world in full rotundness Several heros for the game including Darth Vader, Han Solo, Princess Leia and more importantly EWOKS!!! A Rancor Plenty of planets, including Coruscant, Hoth, Tatooine and Mustafar New characters(probably as part of an awesome new story mode) along with cutscenes Plenty of vehicles, including the Jedi Starfighter, X-Wing and the Fett family ship (can't remember name) http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/945/945423p1.html That's a link to the article on IGN about it Got no time to write my personal opinion now, but don't worry it'll be up on here soon enough. I'll let you guys have your time first though (know how you can get)
Loved the first one, but the second sort of fell short of expectations. Be interesting how the third one will turn out.
http://kotaku.com/5131846/leaked-star-wars-battlefront-3-gameplay-footage Better link. Also above poster, THIS version of Battlefront will never see the light of day. This version of Battlefront 3 was developed by the now defunct Free Radical (the guys who made Timesplittlers) and now they've been bought by Crytek and renamed to Crytek UK. Also Lucas Arts took away their Star Wars license so they can't release this game. Instead Lucas Arts gave permission to the developers at Rebellion, the guys who made Star Wars Battlefront for the PSP (which I thought sucked). Rebellion doesn't have a good track record of game quality. Also the engine that Free Radical made for the game is now in the trash. So Rebellion has to start from scratch. Also a lot of the features in the FR version will not exist in the actual release, like going from ground to space. Sucks huh?
