Might be old news to some of you.
Anyway according to Steve Elis the games was 99% finshed but as we all no it still got scraped due to financial problems. But realy at 99% , what the hell were LucasArt thinking about?
Oh well at least we got Kinect Star Wars.
[quote]"We had a 99% finished game that just needed bug fixing for release. It should have been our most successful game, but it was cancelled for financial reasons. I'm happy that people did at least get to see what we were working on and share the team's enthusiasm for it.[/quote]

I loved Battlefront 1 & 2 so much and played them a lot when I was a child.. good times. If they do decide to bring franchise back I believe it would do great.
-
There is a good chance that Battlefront 3 is not dead. And we may see it as a next generation title. If you look at it from a business stand point.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TH3_AV3NG3R [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Hylebos I'm certain that you guys will eventually get your Battlefront III around Starwars VII. I'm sure that like Battlefront II, it will exist to sell copies of the movie, and will feature all sorts of whimsical locations from the movie which make for terrible levels. "Oh hey, we have about 15 seconds of footage from Felucia in Episode III, LET'S MAKE A LEVEL AROUND IT!" Meanwhile the core gameplay that made the original so good will be pushed to the side in favor of large space battles and giving players the abillity to run around as overpowered Jedis cutting through the ranks. Yes, you will get your Battlefront III one way or another, but be careful what you wish for.[/quote] I can see it now. Killstreaks, custom loadouts, Aim down sights, etc.[/quote] -If done right killstreaks would work. -Battlefront Renegade and Elite Squadron have them and they work.

Shame. I had BattleFront 2 when I was little and I loved it so much.
-
If you think about it Battlefront 3 being cancelled may have been a good thing. As we already know it was going to be about the same eras as the other game. Which are the Clone Wars and The Galactic Civil War.(Which we played too death.) Now we have more eras to play with like the [url=http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070404124658/starwars/images/f/fe/Legacytpb1.jpg]Star Wars Legacy era.[/url] If Disney does release this game and they are smart. They would have the game revolve around the other eras in the Star Wars timeline.
-
Financial problems? Wouldn't the game sell so much that it could completely negate any problems involving money?
-
Are you -blam!-ing -blam!-ting me?

Battlefront 1 and 2 were FAR from perfect (I think they received a little too much praise) but I was still anticipating a Battlefront 3. Let's hope Disney does the right thing.

Hopefully Disney will make sure BF3 gets released.

And? Battlefront is so over rated.
-
...A yet they let The Force Unleashed 2 and Kinect Star Wars come out?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartain ken 15 This game would of sold so well, no one wants Kinect star wars. [/quote]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Tanner113 Why the hell isn't there a petition or something to make this game come out? I'm sure some developer will want to pick it up. That is, if Lucas wants to allow it.[/quote] "Oh wow, look at this online petition, it has 2000 signatures! We must bow to the wishes of the internet!" said no one ever.

I personally want to take over and finish that game!

Look on the bright side people. That amount of money LucasArts had to spend in order to complete that 1%. Was probably used for The Old Republic.

I can understand if the game was 25-59% complete. But cancelling the game when it was 99% complete is very odd. They would have made hug amounts off of this game. So financial problems is really not an excuse. I hope Disney is not going to make the same mistakes. And be on the same level of fail as the post 2005 LucasArts.

That really makes me mad. Those games are the besst.
