Even more pre-alpha footage from Free Radical's Battlefront III was released, showing us all what could have been.
The game looks like it would have been very much like the other two games in the series, which I'm afraid may have made it feel dated, even at the time. I love the Battlefront series, but this footage is from 2007, the year of Call of Duty 4. If it had been released, it probably would have been swept under the rug like every other shooter was and has been since.
It's probably a blessing that things have worked out the way they did then, because now, of course, we have a new Battlefront being developed by DICE, which makes me giddy just to type out. Since the game will be released right around the movie, and movies love to be gritty these days, maybe we can hope for a down and dirty, war-is-hell take on Star Wars that DICE is known to do with Battlefield.
I could theorize about Star Wars all freakin' day, but I'll leave you now with the footage. It's very obviously pre-alpha, but if Star Wars is your bag, it's worth checking out.
