A New Hope: Star Wars Celebration 2010
Well, yet another E3 has come and gone and we are still left with just empty, shallow rumors of our beloved Battlefront 3. I almost gave up hope there, but I think that the faithful members from our community forum has brought my faith back that we will still yet, get our Battlefront 3.
Check out this excerpt from our newest forum Administrator Scott:
“Hello patrons of Battlefront3.net/forums! Scott here just reminding you that I am always right and because of that wondrous gift I will now reveal to exactly what’s happening with our dearest child, Battlefront 3.
There have been rumours of the ol’ girl for quite some time now with the biggest spark being the infamous “leaked” video of off-screen footage. So the game was planned that is obvious. Would Lucas Arts really just abandon it even when many fans still demand it? No they would not. So based on this, the game is in production! But let’s keep following the trail…
The game has had numerous leaked screenshots over the past year or so and again this is obvious. A good chunk of the screenshots though is concept which is a nail in the coffin for this one. Based on this, the game is not in production. Why? Because for one, I said so, secondly, concept is early enough that scrapping it wouldn’t mean much of a loss. The leaked footage says otherwise about the progress but I’m going by the concept.
Battlefront 3 has accidently revealed itself to us more than Paris Hilton but like Paris Hilton, Battlefront 3’s rich parents try to deny her accidence. Seriously though, there have been numerous pop-ups from Amazon and GameStop. I personally think this is really the rumour that should be the most pondered because of its significance. GameStop and Amazon don’t just have some guy going and typing in clumsily the new products they are selling. Nor is it easy to “accidently” place an item for sale. I mean you’d have to type in all the details and post it so an accident it is not. Based on this is Battlefront 3 in production. Hell ya it is.
The final rumour I’m going to analyze is the GameSpy servers. This one is probably still fresh in your minds so I most likely don’t have to explain it. I do think this helps the case because of the formality they are written in. It may be small but if this were some punk kid trying to funny then you probably would have called the servers something like battlefront 3 pwn owner server. Instead of that it was written in a formal way of Battlefront 3 (Console Name). I believe this to be real and think it again helps our case. So yes, based on this I do believe it is in production.
So let’s recap now:
Leaked Footage: In production!
Concept Art: Dead…
Website Revealing: In production!
Servers: In production!
That’s 3/4 saying in production!”
Thanks Scott for the great post! I mean come on now, if that doesn’t inspire you to have a little faith, then what will?
At least our “New Hope” comes with the fact that Star Wars Celebration 2010 is only 48 days away and of course we’ll be following very closely all the rumors that are to come!

I was wondering: has there ever been a game announced at a Star Wars Celebration?
Yes, as a matter of fact, Battlefront 2 was announced at Celebration III or IV, I believe.
Thanks for rekindling my hopes, but if it doesn’t get announced here. I will give up all hope together.
In all fairness, that jst summerised everything we already knew. And i disagree with this “probably would have called the servers something like battlefront 3 pwn owner server.” If some kid was going to prank it then they’d do it seriously as they’d know that a serious look would have a bigger effect.
You think higher of kids than I do then…
I doubt that they are fake, wouldn’t someone at Gamespy get pissed and remove it?
Depends on the kids Age
Has anyone thought that there is the possibility of an announcement at Comic con?!?
thats always a possiblity…the GameSpy servers have definitely given me alot of hope!!!
Lucas arts are celebrating the 30 th anniversary of empire strikes back and are holding an event at the ranch. If there is going to be an announcement this year it will be there. otherwise I think I will give up all hope 2
So, did anyone find it all humorous?
This is so exciting! If the game does get announced, I’ll get it!
Can someone give me some of their hope, because I’m all out.
still not for certain. one can only hope. was an avid player of both battlefronts, it would make my life to see a battlefront 3. but ive almost lost all hope
here’s hoping….again
whoop! 1st comment. I hav big hopes celebration 5. Cant wait
