Nottingham-based Free Radical Design were making it, but they went into administration before Christmas, with strong rumours that another UK developer - based in Oxford, name begins with 'R', might own a publishing wing that puts out a weekly science fiction anthology comic - were now working on the game instead.

No danger that a certain former script droid has any involvement in plot/dialogue?

Looks great, but you couldn't you sorta do the ground/vehicle thing in BFII?  I recall landing my ARC-170 on Sep ships and stomping all over the place...

The Battlefront games are just the right level for a fogey like me, not to difficult as long as you keep blasting away and running about, and I really enjoyed the story mode in BFII, following the history of the 501st.

Nice.  That would be a good money spinner for them I would hope.

I think Lucasarts should have to pay reparations to Bandai-Namco for Soul Calibur 4, so they should insist Nightmare, Cervantes and the rest of the gang should be in this game and that they should be ludicrously unbalanced so you can spend hours murdering countless Extended Universe bitches.

Rebellion no longer involved with BFIII - back to Pandemic now, apparently.

I know this is old news, but do people seriously think the very concept of "Dark Obi-Wan" could ever be a good idea in even the most depraved of alternate dimensions?
