And the saga continues. I'm not surprised since Battlefront is designed in Battlefield's model. And Bioware is still on TOR. Here's hoping they do some original games.. 1313 anyone?

Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.

I do believe your right and that is a very good question...

 

...one, I don't know the answer to :)

 

It could make all the difference but why move away from BioWare? I thought they were doing well (though I suppose that's been RPG only? Not sure)

"nobody has made a good Star Wars strategy game since Rebellion"

 

- couldn't agree with you more!

 

I had high hopes for Empire at War but it just didn't do it for me - felt too much like a "little game" if you know what I mean?

 

Still would LOVE EA if they did a decent strategy title! Please EA, PLEASE!

Not a bad little trailer, there. Tells you absolutely nothing about the game, of course. Still, I'm excited.

 

It would be nice, though unlikely, if someone gave the Jedi Knight series a little love as well. You know, injected some Vong in there, as a substitute to the overdone attempts at armies of dark force users.

 

Or any game focusing on the Chiss. That would be sweet.

Yes, waiting for a Jedi Knight game set in the NJO era. Vong baby :)

I'm looking forward to a Battlefront III. I was so sad to that they never made a Battlefront game for the PS3/360. Maybe it had something to do with how bad The Lord of the Rings: Conquest game ended up being.

 

With all the MMO-type games coming out for the next generation my fingers are crossed that some kind of Star Wars one comes out...maybe even The Old Republic!

I'm not huge into MMOs, but I too look forward to Battlefront 3. I'm really hoping they improve the space battles.

 

I don't really remember the space combat from Battlefront too much. If there's one thing console games are missing, it's space battles. Halo: Reach did a pretty darn good job with it, but unfortunately they didn't follow through with it for Halo 4. I would love to see a new Colony Wars for the PS4.

I fired up Battlefront on the ol' PS2 the other day; Whoa! am I out of practice or what? The controls feel so weird and out-of-sync; I barely pulled out a victory, but it was definitely fun :D Can't wait until III comes out, I just hope my expectations don't kill the "fun" of the actual game :?
Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?

I played the PS2 version for the first time a few months back. You aren't out of practice: those controls are terrible. The land controls are only a little bad, but the space controls are about as bad as any I've ever seen. I do much better with a keyboard+mouse than the PS2 version, even after practice.

Colony Wars? Never heard of it. I take it you liked it?

 

At the time I did. I think it ended up being a trilogy on the PS1. It would definitely need some tweaks to pass today's standards, but the storyline and whatnot was top-notch.
