Leaked Star Wars Battlefront III Footage 33

rambo_ando writes "GameSpot UK journalist Luke Anderson received a tip from an anonymous tipster and Free Radical Design employee today who wanted to show off internal video of Battlefront III , which the games studio, now under administration, has lost the rights to develop. The source, a confirmed Free Radical employee, said of the game, 'it was going to be the best ever.' The five-minute video features gameplay of Stormtroopers, Ewoks, Tauntauns, The Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighters, A-Wings and what looks to be Boba Fett's ship, Slave I — as well as a prominent FRD logo watermark throughout. According to the person who posted the video on YouTube, 'this video was taken in an internal show-and-tell Alpha meeting back in November.'"

    I agree with the parent.

    Maybe I'm just being an old grouch (at 29) but I want capital ship battles. I want squadrons of fighters engaging in battle. We have the technology, why do they refuse to make this kind of stuff and do Lego StarWars instead?

    With current MMO technology one would think that a whole host of possibilities would open up. With current single player gamer technology wouldn't it be quite possible to design an immersive simulator to rival God himself?

    At the very least an update to their classic flight sims seems like a sure-fire hit.
