Battlefront 3 is in Development says Battlefront 3 Actor…

So, I received some promising news this morning in my email, which may bring a couple smiles to a few Battlefront 3 fans. On December 10th, I came across a link on the LucasArts forums (Thanks: robpolman) which included a link to an actor (Chris Marazzo) who has recently done some work with LucasArts on the secretly rumored Battlefront 3.

I thought this was very interesting, so I took the liberty of sending Chris an email. Basically, I asked him if he had the time to discuss what he had done with LucasArts and if he could disclose some information on the Battlefront 3 project.

So, this morning, while checking my email, I had a glorious response from Chris.

Here’s what he had to say:

“Hey Aaron,

Thanks for getting in touch. The Original Title was Battlefront 3 but it evolved into Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption”

I though that this was fairly interesting, I had no idea that this was even considered to Battlefront 3.

This was the highlight of the conversation though:

“However Battlefront 3 is also in development. It was by far the Most Fun and Coolest Casting I ever worked on.”

Sweeet! Can’t get much more direct than that! Naturally, of course, I can’t confirm that this is truly accurate, but by the sounds of it, it looks like we will get our Battlefront 3 eventually!

Chris was also so nice and very cool to add that he may be able to dig me up some Battlefront 3 storyboards, by the end of the week!!

So stay tuned!!

    Oh, guys I just found a little something. This connects Legends and Battlefront III by a very thin line. Here’s what wikipedia says on the Battlefront 3 page:

    “On October 2, 2008, OLFC listed Star Wars: Battlefront III for the Nintendo DS with a PG rating for mild animated violence. The classification had been filed by Activision Blizzard.[7]”

    That’s right, Activision Blizzard. The reference wasn’t a page anymore but something was there.

    @ admin
    Because I’ve run into other Nitros before, but I use this name where it meets the criteria. So if you’ve never seen a P dump then it doesn’t matter.

    Invite the actor to the site, and WHEN (I can say this with a clean concience now) Battlefront 3 comes out what will happen here?

  3. Roboslob says:

    Just to clarify, what has some people confused is the EaW:FoC thing. From what I gather he meant that he was hired BEFORE EaW:FoC was released, which was some time ago, in order to provide voice overs for Battlefront 3, and then he was approached to work on EaW:FoC, meaning he worked on both games.

  4. P dump says:

    Oh, it was just that short. Sorry.
    But hey IS you name Nitro everwhere you go, and does Marazzo intend on contacting you again? If he does ask him about the BF3 gone corrupt.

    • admin says:

      Yeah, he didn’t get into any deep details, I emailed him back with a couple more questions, so hopefully he’ll reply. Some places I use that alias, others I don’t. Why?

      • P dump says:

        Admin, we’re all getting really bored with the screenshot page. Is there anything to report on? We all seem to have a depressed outlook on things after the release of Force Unleashed 2. Did this Marazzow guy ever email you back? Please just make a new page so we can get fresh comments. :/

  5. P dump says:

    Admin, can you give us all of that email? The Battlefront III turned Forces of curruption thing is making my confused.

  6. donhomerj says:

    K guys, just one time 2 sleep 4 me :-) CANT WAIT !!!!

  7. AndyFett55 says:

    I totally believe that BF3 is still being worked on. The trailer of the game looked almost complete. Being that far to completion in a game, you can’t just ditch out.

    Someone said that BF3 will be announced, could SW Legends be a lie? Could it be BF3? The more I think about it, the more I think we could get BF3, but under a different name.

    Saturday night will get here eventually, this suspense is eating me alive!

    “Thats why I stay at Battlefront3.net, the Admin always give us nice news, and the guys on swbf3.de are just tealing it Oo.
    But thanks for that email :-) I have much new hope XD”

    The swbf3.de Guys discovered Marazzo on the 3rd, though.

    Also I don’t see any stealing, except that reference that they made about the email from EX-FRD, but hey all sites quoted you..

  9. P dump says:

    Well sorry I’m a little late posting.
    @ admin.
    Something most interesting about this is the BF3 evolution into Forces of Corupption. This game was a expansion pack for Empire at War. And also was a completely different genre. Is there any way that you can expound upon this. It felt like your email was missing some spots.

    P.S. Out of curiousity, do you use the nickname Nitro for everything you post/comment.

  10. Yodasrevenge7 says:

    EaW FoC already came out. It was probably the same story as a BF3 version that came before even free radical’s

  11. Space Geek says:

    INTESAPHOBIA!!!!!!!
    1 more day and conformation that BF3 is underway!!
    WOOT!!!!

  12. Ironman21 says:

    Now this cheers up my day a lot!!!

    YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  13. AndyFett55 says:

    Well that takes the surprise out of the VGA’s, but who cares? This sounds like some good news, for now. Once we all get our eyes on the storyboards, that will almost confirm this for me.

    Now for the title Empire At War, what time will that be focused on? It sounds like an OT storyline, which is good. Hopefully there will be a ton of planets with multiple maps.

  14. Recneps says:

    So admin this means that they are going to make a new Empire at War?

    I am so happy now I can’t wait but there are still so many unanswered questions like will BFIII be announced at the Spike Game awards or not?… I’m just so exited!

  15. Sidious1264 says:

    At last! A NEW HOPE! Better hurry up though or the competition will make it too late.

  16. Laticspieman says:

    Halllellujah don’t like sound of empire at war though oh well!

  17. vadersdemise_93 says:

    Sweet! Whats your name on the chat admin?
    Wow i’m soo happy now! Time to take my hopes up? yes it is. :D

  18. donhomerj says:

    Thats why I stay at Battlefront3.net, the Admin always give us nice news, and the guys on swbf3.de are just tealing it Oo.
    But thanks for that email :-) I have much new hope XD

  19. Red7 StandingBy says:

    Thats awesome but whats with the Empire at War reference. That doesn’t make any sense.

  20. vadersdemise_93 says:
