The 12 days of Christmas.. Star Wars…. more waiting + New Concept Renders

admin — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 18:12:15 +0000

Well, it’s now December 1st, which means that there is 12 days until we hopefully get what we are all wishing and hoping for… our Battlefront 3. What a nice Christmas present that would be for all of us from LucasArts. But again, many people think that we are just holding our breath for no reason, that we won’t be getting what we want. All that we can do now is just wait, and what makes it worse is that there is absolutely no hints on what game it is, no one seems to be leaking anything.

While Joystiq.com says:

Well, crap. Now we have a reason to watch the Spike Video Game Awards. See, while we can live without the WORLD EXCLUSIVE trailers for next year’s big releases, we don’t think we can skip out on the unveiling of a new Star Wars game in good conscience.

According to the latest teaser, viewers of the 2009 Spike VGAs will be able to find out “what’s next” for the Star Wars gaming franchise. We’ve got our fingers triple-crossed for a new Jedi Outcast entry.

A new Jedi Outcast would be pretty cool, but as long as there is a possibility of Battlefront 3, the hell with anything else!

Here’s the information on the new concepts and renders (which im sure you have already seen because i’m a little late posting them):

Last week saw the discovery of various concept sketches and in-engine renders, and now we’ve got a boatload of additional in-game assets including early concept rooms, texture layouts, and wire-frame renders, all unmarked yet giving off that ever familiar Star Wars glow. Not exactly the best looking images, but considering they represent early, unfinished development, a pass is granted. If the general look of the art doesn’t scream George Lucas, the unmistakable cantina (possibly on Tatooine), and Imperial turret might convince you. The work comes from the personal portfolios of Alistair Burn, former artist at Free Radical, and Samir Battistotti, artist for Crytek UK, both having worked on a “project” for LucasArts.

More Battlefront 3 & 4 Cancelled Concepts + More Rumors

admin — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:15:27 +0000

Well, today marks a little over 100,000 unique visitors to Battlefront3.net and unfortunately I still don’t have any really good news for the Battlefront franchise fans, which really sucks. All that I have to offer is some more Star Wars: Battlefront 3 cancelled concepts and renders, courtesy of our friend rgleiber from the LucasArts forums. You can check them out at the bottom of the post.

In other news, we still have no idea whether there will be a Battlefront 3 or not.. personally… I think that there will be, I have been feeling it since I started this fansite and my hope is still out and up there! We still have some backups anyway, like Pandemics secret projects X & Y, which either could be Battlefront 3.

There is also a strange rumor that Nintendo and LucasArts have 2 secret titles in the works with company Factor 5, who have worked on such titles as Rogue Squadron, which, chances are that’s what they are working on.

Other than that, Elite Squadron hits the shelves today, where i’ll be picking up my DS version and i’ll be sure to post my review here tomorrow.

Prepare to Drool – Star Wars Battlefront 4 Concepts?

That’s right folks.. have a look at the screenshots below and prepare to drool at what have would been if LucasArts hadn’t have cancelled their contract with Free Radical Design (Crytek UK). While I can’t confirm that these are real or that they even came from Free Radical Design, they do look mega spectacular.

Apparently, not only was Free Radical Design working on Battlefront 3, but they were also doing concepts for a Battlefront 4. Holy crap… Battlefront 4? Who cares about that anyway, all we want is Battlefront 3!!!

“When LucasArts terminated their contract with Free Radical Design (nowadays known as Crytek UK), the studio was not only working on Star Wars Battlefront III and Time Splitters 4. Instead, the company started the pre-production of another Star Wars Battlefront game.

As the status of Star Wars Battlefront III (Free Radical version) is currently unknown, we do not expect any news about a fourth SW Battlefront game in the near future.”
