Still No Battlefront 3… Your Comic-Con Opinion?

Well Battlefrontians.. another major event.. another major disappointment. At this point, I know that a lot of people are really starting to get frusterated and give up hope… but I am not. Until Lucasarts directly comes out and says that they are not making Battlefront 3, I will always have hope.

The “exciting” announcement from Lucasarts at Comic Con.. well.. wasn’t so exciting in my opinion. It’s pretty cool, but it’s not really what I had in mind.

The Limited Edition Kinect Star Wars Bundle:

starwars-kinect

Star Wars Kinect Bundle

“Limited Edition Kinect Star Wars Bundle

Get the Xbox 360 Limited Edition Kinect Star Wars bundle, with the first ever white Kinect Sensor and custom-designed console and controller based on popular Star Wars characters R2-D2 and C-3PO. Use the Force like a Jedi and immerse yourself in the Star Wars experience you’ve always dreamed of, in ways you never imagined possible

Our good friend Rainz also chimed in with some words of disappointment.

“Rainz here with some sad news,

Well, our hopes of LucasArts announcing BattleFront 3 at Comic-Con were shattered today. At the LucasArts panel, they revealed new information on their Star Wars Kinect title (Lightsaber functions, podracing etc.) They also hinted a realease date for this Chrtistmas. Now that was to be expected, but I held my breath waiting for the “Suprising announcement” to be shown as Battlefront 3, but no, they told attendees they were going to be bundling the game, Kinect, and XBOX together. Needless to say, I was devastated.

Now it only looks like any chance of BF3 getting announced is when the Blu-Ray is released, or when the 3D remakes of the original trilogy hit theatres. But for now, all we can do is wait.

~Rainz

People are still saying that Spark Unlimited will be revealing their secret unannounced game in the near future and they are still convinced that it is Battlefront 3. At least we still have some hope!

Thoughts welcomed!

    hell, you guys cant give up yet!! cmon guys!! ive been fallowing this game and mostly this website since i saw the leaked footage the day it came on youtube. back in the days when i had pmy ps2 and thaught the graphics were godly. spark didnt announce its game like i thaught they would, that game is definitly battlefront 3. if spark announces a game thats not battlefront 3, then i will understand why you gave up hope, but it will!!! like Nitro said, im not losing hope untill lucasarts says they wont make B3 untill hell freezes over.

    The reason for launching R2 kinect bundle is simple – easy profit!
    But i can’t say the the same for developing a game like BF3 which is time consuming & expensive. That is why LA may not be so keen on BF3 development & they may think that they shouldn’nt waste time & money on a niche market. They’ll rather produce Lego games because the kids market is much larger i suppose. It all about the money. On a side note, i’m a vintage SW toy collector & they dont make toys like they use to….just like games, they dont make games like before….I guess those of you who are in your 30′s will understand better. Sob…:(

    hm…i just don’t know what to think anymore, i still have hope that there still making the game, but its slowly diminishing. Maybe their just too busy with The Old Republic that they aren’t focusing at all on Battlefront 3? I don’t know, maybe once their finished with the Old Republic they’ll face their attention on BF3, but until then guys, I’m gonna be enjoying the Old Republic.

      on the last TuggieGameReviews Star Wars Battlefront III update he made a good point that probably would not announce SWB3 until after The Old Republic comes out because they would not want a game that will not come out for a year or more take publicity from a game in the old republic that they have spent a whole lot of money making. So I’m calling it now they announce it at the VGA’s and we will get first game play at next years E3.

      here is a link to TuggieGameReviews SWB3 update if you want to view it:

    This sucks… But! We have still hope. Spark Unlimited have their announcement… We got the servers at gamespy. And Lucasarts have said many times that they will go back to their old sucsessful franchises.

    I just hope it will come out before next decade…

        actually its been saying that samething for atleast 7 months now so its not likely that the just months away from the announcement is accurate. but there is a spark unlimited “secret” twitter account that is giving vage insight. i do remember reading something about 3 weeks of hiring left so i dubt any news on the game will be coming soon unless its a leak that goes public.
