Star Wars Battlefront 3 Footage That Will Make You Cry

by Paul

There’s some Star Wars Battlefront 3 footage that will make you weep bitter tears. Why? Because Free Radical is no longer around to complete the game. A new developer has it, but the game will lose some really awesome tech. A Free Radical employee said, “It’s my understanding that the game’s been passed to a new developer, but the tech that allowed you to fly from the ground, to air, to orbit, to space dies with Free Radical’s involvement.” Oh that would be so cool, damn it. That still means we’ll get a Battlefront 3 game that hopefully lives up to the Battlefront legacy, but who knows.

The only thing I can see that looks a bit odd in the video is how fast the characters are running. Holy crap, their legs look like Roadrunner’s when he’s trying to escape Wile E. Coyote. Also some of the clips are obviously cut scenes, but damn it all they look good.

Oh yeah and this picture was leaked the other day that got Star Wars fans in a tizzy:

It’s an evil Obi-Wan Kenobi. It looks like Free Radical was going to go into the realm of crazy expanded universe territory, which could make a Star Wars purist explode in nerd rage, but Obi-Wan looks pretty damned cool nonetheless. What other evil versions of good characters or good versions of evil characters did Free Radical have in store? Nerdy minds want to know!
