XBOX 360 Battlefront 3 Screenshots from Free Radical + Geonosis
A big thanks goes out to “Wenis”, a member on our forums who has been relentless in digging up some XBOX 360 screenshots (originally posted by SWBF3.de) as well as some nice renders of Geonosis and a great little animation reel of the following:
“An animation reel, which shows various games including Battlefront III. You can even hear a little bit of the voice acting of that Shara bounty hunter, and some other guy.”
You can check out that animation at this link: click here.
Check out the shots of Geonosis here and here.
And last but not least, here are the XBOX 360 screenshots from Free Radical’s version of Battlefront 3.
“The Loading Screen of BFIII was a hyperspace sequence, which showed information about the planet you were about to do battle on. It featured animated ‘warp’ effects based on those seen in the Star Wars movies.”
“One of the most complex screens I concepted for the front-end of BFIII was the ‘Select Spawn Location’ screen, which was intended to illustrate the ‘Vertical Battlefield’ concept (encompassing ground, sky and space), across all 12 different planets.”
“‘Select Spawn Class’ was intended to allow the gamer to choose from a dynamic list of classes. This concept (with placeholder art) envisions a scenario with many class options for the ‘Heroes Vs Villians’ game mode.”
“The ‘Galactic Conquest’ game mode was one of the highly anticipated modes of BFIII. This concept illustrates the visual approach I defined to the main ‘chess board’ screen. The animated camera would zoom in on your planet selection.”
“Many of the front-end screens were projected as ‘holograms’ onto a battle table, which was situated on a Star Destroyer bridge. This ‘Control Configuration’ screen concept shows how we were planning on realising that goal.”
Hey admin, I don’t know if you saw this one either, another animation reel http://www.thegraphicsengine.com/animation_frame.htm (it was at the bottom of my post so you may have missed it).
But to everyone asking why LucasArts didn’t release it, I remember reading an article from an ex Free Radical guy back in January. He said he wasn’t too sure why LucasArts never gave them a release date either, though he said it might have been because of all the money it would have taken to market the game. Because keep in mind this all happened right after the stupid recession began… and it would have taken $millions to market such a big game like this.
Thanks Wenis! Link added.
I got nothing to do with this comment, but it the first page.
@ SPACE GEEK.
Hey, I got bf2 for the PC. Need some advice with mods and stuff.

This sure is awesome, but where’s the battlefront III they’re making now?! And can it equal this?
Looks kinda crappy.
i agree…the graphics and gameplay look nothing like battlefront 2…it looks alot worse
Awesome find and @admin some reason I am not getting the confirmation email to get on the forums
@rawdog – Send me your login name – admin@battlefront3.net and i’ll activate your account for you.
Lucasarts better be working their @$$ off on this, i doubt it though they are just after the money.
lol interresting, I wrote Crytek an email, whether they work on BF3. I got a clear no. Now another Crytek employees´s writing me, the same as EA, that they cannot talk about those project they´re working or not working on. Hmm is EA putting Crytek under pressure, to say nothing about EA is working on it ? hehe bad one EA, a Crytek Employees already told me, that Crytek isnt working on BF3, so why write me again ? Oo

Well, after seeing this awsome pictures the only question in my mind is: WHY? This game had everything to rock and, with some luck, to be amongst the best FPS games ever released. I can’t help but try to imagine why would LA can this project when it was about to be finished… It just doesn’t make sense!
Even though its a small thing, I’m am ecstatic on the controls. Not only is it left button aim, but it’s customisable! Its a shame it went, but I shan’t give up hope. Wherever it is, lets hope it lives up to these expectations.
I think that lucasarts is afraid that star wars could be getting boring. But how could they let this game go into a coma.
The game Forces of Corruption was an expansion pack to the computer strategy game star wars empire at war.
Hey 12 planets in this and ES. That screenshot is of Coruscant. Seemed to break away from the past installents style a bit, but hey, it’s next Gen.
I dont get why they didnt release the one with free radical?
I mean they have screen shots videos picture. If the only reason they didnt release the game is because free radical went out their out of their minds!!!
unless they never finished the game.
but two years in production I should playing the game right now!!!
Kmon LucasArts HURRY UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate the fact that this game was not released back in march.
or that they couldnt finish it and put up on the market before free radical went out.
but with pandmeic refuting the game I dont how its possibly going to look good when it comes.
even though most of LucasArts games come out great, with pandemic gone I have very LOW expectations on how good this game will be.
I love Battlefront and the day it comes out (soposivly nov 2010
as this site said.) I’ll probobly be first in line.
but still im not going to expect alot out of SWBIII.
but keep on updating this site because like I said “first in line.”
That salvador guy who did that small BF3 animation… he had some drawings… that had ladies… naked…. Should we trust this guy? Looks like hes a P E D O.
Why would they cancel a game that is this close to being done. If FR’s version was so close to being finished why would they cancel it? Maybe the are just saying its dead and its really not. It would just be stupid to completely redo the game from scratch.
they were so close to being done. how could LA cancel FR’s bf3. it would of been so awesome. Maybe they say its dead but its not. I mean why would they cancel a game that is so close to being done?
Twelve planets? Really? That’s all they can do? I’d be more satisfied if they had, say, 15 planets. Not counting the vertical battlefront capital ship stuff.
How did this die? A game that comes this far just can’t die. It almost makes me wonder if EA got nervous that this game would be too good so they bought it themselves.
This looks awesome! too bad Free Radical’s BF3 is dead. This could definitely compete with COD or Halo
Hey I love Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2 and I really want 3 and I have never played any other game more then the Battlefronts and it looks cool as hell the way they are making it but what I think would be super awesome is if they let you upgrade the armor and guns like you could make your armor have camouflage or upgraded armor and also put like a scope or cool other effects and attachments on there weapons and it would cost like points to unlock and get them and how to get points is by taking planets, killing troops and doing objectives and minor objectives and that would be like FREAKIN AWESOME!!!! I would so be a Clone Trooper with upgraded armor and with a burst shot blaster and you could completely customize the troops and all the other classes but not the jedi or sith though I think that they are awesome the way they are doing them and to completely customize the class you use would be AWESOME!!! but thats just my opinion I love STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3
