Hey fellow Kametsu Star Wars fan! No doubt most of you have played the star wars battlefront series at some point. With the first two games being great, the third has been long overdue and has been rumoured to be in work for a long time with (fake or real) video leaks, fake pictures etc, etc.

First Update: (02/02/2012)

Well now im here to tell you that Spark Unlimited are rumoured or to be more exact they are hinting via tweets of a very top secret game in works:

Now they are doing very well to keep their hidden project a secrect, but in the first picture notice the last sentence "The time and place could be close or far, far away"

Now there is more info on this but its a little more vauge then that first tweet from Spark Unlimited.

I have also seen this rumour reported in serveral gaming magazines such as a magazine called Game Informer.


Update 2: (12/02/2012)

Some time last week I found some more, I guess you could call them hints toward Spark Unlimited secret project. See below:

Now for the top left picture, a twitter user has asked spark whether or not the secret sci-fi game is a sequel or a prequel that is in the works. Spark replied "Sequel to a popular Sci-Fi Franchise"

Now for picture two, this has less to do with hints/rumours to the game and more to do with when we could hope to hear about what the game is.

Update 3: (08/03/2012)

This is an article posted by IGN just going into more detail about the rumour

I will keep this first post here up to date with all new details as they come but I would also like to hear your thoughts?

I went around my friends a couple of months ago to play xbox 360 (amongst other things). We ended up tiring of halo, gears of war, mortal kombat and call of duty. My friend then said he had two copies of battlefront 2 for the orginal xbox; we ended up playing that for HOURS. its proof that a good multiplayer game never truly ages.

Have to agree with you there idl12, controlling an army of clones is pretty sweet. Yeah playing with the jedi is sweet and all but can't beat an army of clones.

starwars sucks its for losers

Well I know were all entitled to our own opinion but by that comment it would seem that you want to draw troll blood.

Just one question what is it that you don't like about Star Wars, cause I've seen allot of people say Star Wars sucks but never even so much as seen even 5 minutes of anything related to the series.

Awlawdy! When they announced that the game was being put on the shelf a few years back I damn near cried. SWB was and still is, imo, one of the best multiplayer games ever. I used to play it for ridiculous amounts of time with mates, on my own...hell I was addicted.

I just hope they keep their promises in the seamless space to ground fighting (was mentioned in an interview ages back) and the whole customisable army idea. Customize your army colours would be pretty brilliant with the clones, as in the series they aint just the 501st (the blue guys). I seem to remember someone mentioning command abilities....or maybe I'm mixing that up with another game...:/

Hopefully they'll be a new Mos Eisley jedi fight thing.......epocity! Looking forward to hearing more news about it in any case!

Update (12/04/12)

Bad news guys, the game that was thought to be SW BF 3 was in fact Lost Planet 3. Spark Unlimited announced recently that they are not making Star Wars Battlefront 3.

This is a huge disapointment seeing as the return of such an epic game is highly demanded!

While searching for leads on ST BF 3 before it was confirmed not to be in works I can across some videos and pictures of what the old SW BF 3 that Radical were making looked like before it was cancelled. It was still onlt in alpha stages but the game looks like it had come so far along in development, so why the cancelled it I have no clue.

Take a look for yourself at what could have been:

http://www.battlefront3.net/2012/04/free-radicals-battlefront-3-alpha-video/

Well I guess thats all I can do for now in this thread, though with this huge set back there is still on shining beacon of hope. In the closing statement of the page that confirms that Spark Unlimited are not working on SW they say:

"On the other hand, LucasArts has been slated to announce two new games at this years E3.

E3 is scheduled for June 5-7, 2012 at the Los Angeles Convention Center."

Lets hope that SW BF3 is one of the 2!

Update, sorry I ment to post this earlier. Some time last week I found some more, I guess you could call them hints toward Spark Unlimited secret project. See below:

Now for picture two, this has less to do with hints/rumours to the game and more to do with when we could hope to hear about what the game is.

As I can see from the above posts a lot of you are happy to hear about the possible SW:BF 3 in the works. I can only hope that this is the star wars game we have all been waiting for and not some other sci fi game, which will be greatly dissapointing.

I will update this first post with this new info.

*sigh* i still remember playing Battlefront 2 on the xbox like it was yesterday. Oh the crazy things I did like:

-running head first into a vehicle with a mine-covered speeder in Kashyyyk

-landing on top of an AT-AT with a snow speeder in Hoth and riding it

-spam grenades all over the map with infinite ammo

-go on a jedi/sith/bounty hunter rampage with god mode on

*sigh* good times
