When Battlefront III seemed to die a slow death with us all getting a sneak peak into a video of the game that was not to be released, a sparkle of hope came about for the Battlefront Saga. We learned in an article posted here February 1st this year that Lucasarts and Slant Six Games were working on Battlefront Online. It is, as the name suggests, planned to be online-only, and was tentatively slated to appear in 2011.

As it turns out according to Kotaku, 2011 is going to be a very busy release season for Lucasarts, so they wanted to push Battlefront Online up to be released this year. It became clear last month that the reality is this could not happen in the shorter time span. So what is the solution? Lucasarts decides to put the project "on ice".

So much so that the Slant Six crew that was working on the game has been laid off as a result! Slant Six managing director Brian Thalken told GameSpot "Our current project needs do not align with our current staffing levels", and confirmed that an undisclosed number of developers had been "temporarily" laid off, in the hopes that they can be re-hired once the studio's workload is able to support them.

So is this a permanent icing for Battlefront Online, or will they just move the game back to 2012? Only time will tell, but if the history of the franchise is any indication, don't expect Battlefront Online to ever see the light of day.

The publisher's chief banker Eric Brown described the MMO as the "largest ever development project, period, in the history of the company".

He said a packaged game usually costs around $30m to make at EA, but "any MMO costs significantly more than that".

When asked by a member of the Wedbush Morgan Securities audience in New York today how the cost compared to World of Warcraft, Brown said Blizzard spent "$100 million, perhaps more" to ship the game in 2004.

"That's lifetime [research and development] to actually ship it and obviously then there's maintenance subsequent to ship and expansion packs," Brown added.

These days, WOW makes around $100m a month from subscriptions. EA no doubt hopes SWTOR will recoup costs in a similar fashion.

"MMOs are sizeable undertakings," quipped Brown.

EA is steering Star Wars: The Old Republic towards a spring 2011 release.

"Once home to a sprawling planet-wide city, Taris was razed long ago by the Sith Lord Darth Malak while seeking to eliminate the Jedi Knight Bastila Shan. Now, a post-apocalyptic Taris is being realized in Star Wars™: The Old Republic™. After 300 years, Republic and Jedi leaders are moving forward with the efforts at colonization."

UPDATE:

The Threat of the Conqueror adds more than 200 new playable cards and more than 30 new loot cards to the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game, bringing the total number of cards in the game to more than 1,800. Be sure to read the entire article!

“LucasArts continues to set the bar for next-generation family entertainment,” said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts. “The LEGO® Star Wars franchise is a massive hit with fans, bringing in sales of over 20 million units worldwide. We’re thrilled to extend this experience to LEGO® Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, delivering the humor and fun players expect from this award winning franchise.” “LucasArts is an amazing partner, and working with them on the next iteration of the LEGO® Star Wars series continues to be a great experience,” said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. “The team at TT is working hard at making this simply the best LEGO® game ever with all new gameplay and features never before seen in a LEGO® game.”

LEGO® Star Wars III: The Clone Wars will include all the characters from both seasons of the hugely popular animated television series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, as well as some fan-favorite characters from the beloved theatrical Star Wars Saga. The game will feature brand new battle modes, giving players unique, head-to-head combat and an upgraded level builder, allowing the creation of customized bases and in-game battlefields. Play either as a Jedi or Separatist with all-new character abilities, such as Squad command, Lightsaber slicing, Lightsaber jumps, long distance Jedi attacks and Grapple Tie-Ups, all within a new, easy-to-navigate hub.

We all know that Star Wars: Battlefront III seems to have been lost, but Kotaku has reported a rumor that the series lives on, in the form of currently-in-pre-production Battlefront Online.

"The game, for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, is currently being worked on by both Lucasarts and Slant Six Games, the studio responsible for SOCOM Confrontation and SOCOM Fire Team Bravo 3.

The title is still in pre-production, so there's no guarantee that we'll ever hear more of it – Battlefront having become somewhat of a cursed property after the recent demise of original developers Pandemic and buy-out of Battlefront III developers Free Radical – but Lucasarts' insistence on getting a Battlefront game made in spite of all that gives us hope.

Battlefront Online is, as the name suggests, planned to be online-only, and is tentatively slated to appear in 2011.

Whether this game was the source of that "Battlefront IV" concept art that turned up last year is unknown, but our sources tell us that it is the source of those voice actor rumors from December."

There isn't any word yet for all of us that still play Battlefront II on PC. I do hope it makes it to the PC platform!

Update!

The Movies Section has been updated with a downloadable copy! Be sure to see The Force Unleashed II-Teaser Trailer in HD! You can find this video clip in the Video Game Scenes section. If you have a movie clip or scene from any video game in a AVI, MOV, etc. format, please send it in! Enjoy!

Achim Moller of Factor 5 GmbH recently assured that both of their other Wii titles could have been released in 2009, indicating that Rogue Squadron and Pilotwings have been finished. Moller admits, nonetheless, that Factor 5 is unsure whether both of these titles will see a release, suggesting that either Nintendo or LucasArts are not confident on publishing their Factor 5-developed game.

The question now is whether or not Nintendo and LucasArts might release either project at all. Be sure to read the entire article.

"A new holorecord in the Jedi Archive captures a poignant moment in the Republic’s recent history. Master Gnost-Dural recounts the story of the battle of Bothawui—a battle in which the courage and sacrifice of Jedi and Republic forces scored a major victory against the Sith Empire.

BTC 18 – Nearly a decade after the return of the Sith Empire and the start of the Great War, the Empire had scored dozens of victories, establishing its dominance in the Outer Rim. As the Sith turned their forces toward the Mid Rim, however, the Republic prepared a bold surprise. When an Imperial squadron arrived to seize control of Bothawui, the entire Republic fleet was waiting. The fleet’s victory was celebrated across the galaxy, but the truly inspiring moment was yet to come. As the Republic fleet dispersed to defend other battlefronts, only a small force remained behind to face the Empire’s retribution. The Jedi and Republic troopers on Bothawui never had a chance of surviving the Imperial attack, but their courage and selflessness in the face of impossible odds won a victory far greater than that from any single battle. The heroic stand on Bothawui restored hope across the galaxy, and rallied the Republic’s forces to fight with renewed courage."

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a massively-multiplayer online game being developed by the storytelling experts at BioWare and LucasArts. In Star Wars: The Old Republic, players will explore an age thousands of years before the rise of Darth Vader when war between The Old Republic and The Sith Empire divides the galaxy. Players can choose to play as Jedi, Sith, or a variety of other classic Star Wars roles, defining their personal story and determining their path down the light or dark side of the Force. Along the way, players will befriend courageous companions who will fight at their side or possibly betray them, based on the players' actions. Players can also choose to team up with friends to battle enemies and overcome incredible challenges in dynamic Star Wars combat.

If is is brand new, than it can't be The Old Republic, or The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes. Hmmm... What would be a smash? BATTLEFRONT 3 PERHAPS???? One can only hope. We will know tonight!

Ten Ton Hammer reports that this anonymous source confirmed this rumor at PAX, where they said SOE will likely use the engine from their popular browser-based MMO FreeRealms to create the new game. Considering the engine it'll be using, and since it'll be set in the Clone Wars timeframe, it's likely that the game will be based on the stylized look of the Clone Wars animated series. And since the game will be built with a focus on attracting more casual gamers, it's unlikely it'll be positioned as a direct competitor to BioWare's highly anticipated The Old Republic.

It all sounds believable enough, especially since LucasArts already has another Clone Wars-based game in development at Krome Studios. Still, as usual with rumors, we'll reserve any final judgment until LucasArts or Sony makes it easy for us, and confirms the news themselves.

"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."

The games from The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith that started the saga. It's worth noting that as the second trilogy went on, fewer and fewer licensed games were based on the films (9 for Episode I, 7 for Episode II and 2 for the Episode III).

The games discussed in this particular episode are probably before most of your times -- an era characterized by cutting-edge vector graphics and Speak-and-Spell quality vocal tracks. Still, it's interesting to see the origins of one of the most prolific video game franchises on Earth. The Arcade shooters and Atari beginnings of far, far away.

The arrival of the first three games will be accompanied by additional Star Wars-themed content on other Wii channels throughout the week. The Check Mii Out Channel will invite people to submit their best Mii^™ character renditions of classic Star Wars characters. On the Everybody Votes Channel, users can cast their votes to help settle old debates, such as the proper order to watch the six Star Wars films, and who fired first – Han Solo or Greedo?

“Our expanded partnership with LucasArts brings the Star Wars and Nintendo universes together,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “These three Super Star Wars games represent fantastic additions to the growing Virtual Console library, and the exclusive Star Wars content on the other Wii Menu channels is sure to have people from different generations having fun and interacting with one another.”

“Virtual Console on Wii is a great way to make these games available to our fans again, and it’s an awesome opportunity to expose our classic console titles to an entirely new audience,” said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts.

Additional classic LucasArts games for Virtual Console will be announced in the future.

Remember that Wii features parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access. For more information about this and other Wii features, visit Wii.com.

"LucasArts' two-pronged attempt to revitalize their classics with The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition and Tales of Monkey Island appears to be a success. As part of a follow-up interview with LucasArts president Darrell Rodriguez about plans for the months ahead, I asked Rodriguez for thoughts on a return of the company's lauded X-Wing and Tie Fighter flight sim series.

His answer?

"We don’t have any announcements now, but stay tuned," said Rodriguez. "We will soon….."
By the way, that's his number of dots, not mine. We conducted the interview over e-mail. Five dots is far more mysterious than three dots, so I'm willing to bet I'm onto something here.

Whether it's a full-on remake ala The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition or an addition to the company's growing Steam lineup…well, who cares? Either one would be the first acknowledgement of a major part of LucasArts' legacy in a long, long time. The last major release in the series was X-Wing Alliance."

The original X-Wing game was the reason I bought my first computer! Other than the Battlefront series, the X-Wing series of games is by far my favorite and can only hope for a new cool updated version. Let's hope they keep it on the PC. More as the word comes.

The Sacking of Coruscant. It was the crowning achievement of the Sith Empire’s ambitious military strategy and the moment that changed the history of the Old Republic forever.

Republic leaders have traveled to Alderaan to engage in promised peace talks with the Sith Empire. The most powerful Jedi have accompanied them to safeguard against an Imperial deception. The Empire’s real motive, however, was simply to lure the Republic’s strongest defenders away from Coruscant and set the stage for an audacious attack. Under the command of Lord Angral, the Sith fleet approaches the Republic’s capital planet for the first time in centuries. In advance of the fleet, the strongest Sith Warriors have flown a stolen Republic ship into Coruscant’s orbit. Their mission is critical – to destroy the planet’s defense grid mainframe hidden in the heart of the Jedi Temple.

You must watch it now! It will not disappoint! Look for a downloadable HD version tomorrow.

"Set 300 years after the events of Star Wars™: Knights of the Old Republic™ and thousands of years before the rise of Darth Vader, the setting of The Old Republic is a relatively unexplored timeframe in the Star Wars™ canon.

After the recent leaked footage - which we’d thought to be in-game, but since turned out to be pre-rendered - appeared online in the post-Free Radical fallout, Battlefront 3 looked full of promise, and with Rebellion’s experience with the underrated PSP version, the future of the series was looking good. Pandemic, however, are on a bit of a downward ebb in recent times, with Mercenaries 2 being a huge disappointment, and Lord of the Rings: Conquest – billed as essentially “Battlefront in Middle Earth.”

Let's hope Pandemic can pull through its money troubles and schedule conflicts to put together another great installment of the Battlefront series!

"Fans of the Battlefront series should be particularly excited since the series was essentially defunct once developer Pandemic was bought up by EA - removing its option to license property from LucasFilm. Fortunately Mikoishi is still here to keep the franchise alive for pocket gamers.

We saw a Star Wars Battlefront Mobile game way back in 2005, and although we don't have many details on apparent sequel Star Wars Battlefront: Mobile Squadrons, the title suggests something of a crossbreed between the Battlefront FPS action and possibly the strategic fighting/multiplayer of the recent Clone Wars game, also from THQ Wireless.

The teaser picture we've seen shows Count Dooku, the Emperor and Yoda all brandishing their Lightsabers, with Princess Leia alongside - suggesting a journey through all episodes, one to six, with a degree of online action built into the game."

According to the official site of Richard Smith, who is the ex-Free Radical employee, the “secret LucasArts project” is Star Wars: Battlefront III, and he even had pictures to prove it. But, sadly the pictures were removed faster then they appeared. Luckily they are still available in other places. The renders are models of Han Solo, Jawas, Palpatine, Rebel Soldiers, Sahra The Bounty Hunter, and more!

There may not be need for worry. The word is now that Rebellion may have scoped up the deal! Who is Rebellion? They were the company who developed the PSP hit Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron. There may still be life in this game after all.
