Free Radical's Battlefront almost official?

Another Star Wars game thats getting a decent amount of media attention as of late.

Ahead of the LucasArts E3 press conference next week, eagle-eyed internet users have spotted listings for the third instalment on retail site Amazon (which have since been pulled), including Battlefront III products on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PS2, PSP and DS. That's all of them, then.

In late 2006 the Timesplitters (and cough, Haze) developer formally disclosed a "next-gen LucasArts project", but is still to officially discuss the game.

"In the battle for videogame quality, these guys are at the front of the line. This team's pedigree is one of the best in the business," said ex-Lucasarts VP Peter Hirschmann on the deal. Notice a hint there?

After Lucasarts' mass-sacking earlier this year, a disgruntled employee even listed Battlefront III as an upcoming project.

Oooh! Sounds interesting to me! Here's hoping the guys at Free Radical don't keep us guessing for too long and finally spill the beans! ^_^

Battlefront 3? Really? OMG, this is the best time for games. I'm so happy. Think I'll go play Battlefront 2.

I have Battle front but didn't really like it. Maybe if I gave it more time I would but the whole lack of time gets in the way :lol:
Cool stuff though

I think they should have more playable Eras other than the factions from 1-3 and 4-6

Imagine playing as someone from like KOTOR or something.
By the way, good game and nice find.

I was really disappointed with Battlefront 1 & 2 so i hope this is better. After playing the Battlefield games and even the Star Wars mod for the Battlefield games i felt the mod was better than the actual Battlefront titles. They just felt like Battlefield 1942 rip-offs that werent done as well.
