Gamestop.ca says we’re getting Battlefront 3? What do you think?

Leave to us Canadians to bring in some good news. On my last post I presented a link to the Canadian Gamestop, which shows us Battlefront 3 for pre-order on multiple platforms, including PS3, XBOX 360, PC and PS2.

I guess, from Gamestop’s perspective, it’s legit. According to a lot of people, who have been calling Gamestop asking about this, it’s for real.

Check out what our friends at swbf3speculation are reporting:

“A few of our membres have called Game Stop and have talked to its employees to reveal, in fact, that the release dates are very true. The game should be slated to come out sometime in June 2010.

Here is what a Gamestop worker told one of our members (xezene):

First guy said that it has been delayed and was nearly completed at Free Radical, but then Free Radical sank and it “floated around lots of different studios” for a while before, he said, it has now found a home. Said it’s been delayed and they weren’t sure whether to put it on Gamestop’s website for the last 2 YEARS but now they quickly put it on. He didn’t say what studio, but it makes me think that Lucasarts really wanted BF3 to happen but they were having bad luck. Now he said it is happening.

Second Gamestop said it is happening, either release or pre-order in Feb. Lucasarts apparently hasn’t told them much, just to get ready.

(Thanks xezene for your calling help!!!)

Gamestop also speculated that Dice Studios is currently working on Battlefront 3:

“DICE Working on yet another game? SAY WHAT!!!!!!

Well as you know on the Canadian Gamestop webpage it has Battlefront 3 And one guy called and talked to costumer support and asked about the game and Sure enough it was being worked on by DICE Studios The publisher is Eletronic Arts and the Producer is DICE, a Swedish company. It could be DICE (Digital Illusions Creators Entertainment), they produced Battlefield: Bad Company, Mirror’s Edge and Battlefield 2142. The support informed us that an export to Austria, Germany and Switzerland.

Here is the link again to the Gamestop listings: Battlefront 3

Definitely some interesting news, obviously it will be amazing if this is true, we shall see anyway. Stay tuned for updates!

  1. just for ze’ record they should bring back the battlefront laat instead of the BF #2, BF RS,and BF ES laat cause i miss just flying it by moving the control stick foward to go that direction in stead of it moving by it self right guys.

    I have emailed lucasarts, dice studios, and gamestop about this. I will see what they give me as a reply.

  3. this is getting interesting hope thiers map maker in it to spice things up

  4. Scott says:

    isn’t DICE working on Bad Company 2? Seems fishy and misleading…

    @admin
    do you see it? and what transparency did you use on the stormtrooper?

  6. Secllipse says:

    not to be a buzz kill or anything but why would LA tell gamestop Canada or otherwise “to get ready” for bf3 and gamestop follow through with uploading info on there OP, when gamestop hasnt even uploaded info on FU2? I know BF was the best selling Star Wars game of all time but still it makes no sense…

    @admin
    look closely at the top two stars see the difference half way down?

  8. 1R0cketeer says:

    I’m shocked, I mean, Lucasarts will be FLOODING the market with top titles if this is true. With the Old Republic MMO, now SWTFU2, i thought they’d space it out a bit…not that i’m complaining hah.

  9. P dump says:

    I like that symbol admin, no offense but it beats the one you got at the top of the page. Here’s some fan done box art: http://www.vgboxart.com/boxes/PS3/10263_star_wars_battlefront_iii-v3.png

    @ vadersdemise_93.
    Thank you for doing what all of us are either too chicken or too lazy to do. “Do what must be done, Lord Vader. Show no mercy.”

    Also, there have been other trigger happy sites who posted Bf3 for sale, including, at one time, amazon.com. And it doesn’t sound like ANY Gamestop ANYWHERE to speculate.

    May i use it? The picture?

  11. mikill says:

    @admin
    looks good did you make it? Just to mention if you look closely at the stars they are blue (some of them) and I can really see the stormtrooper maybe 30%-40% opaqueness. Otherwise looks very good!!

  12. xezene says:

    Great, if I can I will be emailing someone at Crytek to see if they know anything about this.

  13. mikill says:

    Anyone have photoshop? Or know something that can combine two pictures into one? I wanted to make a symbol for a group to bring battlefront 3!! These are the two pics: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:NR_Seal.svg and http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/95/Battlefront3HD.png just to get an idea of what i want to do.

  14. Yea dude!!! You can post them here! I may have to upload them on youtube for people to listen.

  15. T-rain says:

    Man I got so excited with the VGAs and now I’m right back to excited as @%$##

  16. mikill says:

    This looks like a week for news!! Glad to be a part of it!

    Hopefully this turns out to be legit and doesn’t blow up later. However, I do know some people have ordered it already and this could be bad if it turns out that this isn’t real

    Life, Liberty, and Battlefront
