Instead we get Haze!

I remember a developer who worked on Battlefront 3 came to my school soon after the game was cancelled, to talk about what it's like in the industry, and why we should be game developers. He made a long speech about how we should not become game developers, as the industry will destroy our dream projects. So yeah, now I'm learning game development.

Why does that sounds so believable haha. If you read the article “Free Radical Vs the Monsters” it has the same sorta pessimistic attitude about the game industry. It’s actually quite an insightful read and I fully recommend checking it out. I also have to mention the Free Radical Archive; they have so much info on Free Radical and Bf3!

@@henryfleischer404 If you want to keep your dream, there is always indie. Realistic AAA graphics are over rated anyways. The new CoD will look obsolete in 10 years. Windwaker will look great forever.

@@62cky4powerthirst Yeah. I'm working on a twin-stick SHMUP, mostly on my own, using a mix of pre-rendered sprites and low poly models right now. After that, I've got two first person shooters, a management game, and an aysmerical multiplayer management/FPS game to make.

There's a difference between good and being... just incredibly, incredibly _dumb._ Sadly a lot of people don't seem to understand this fact. Removing an enemy's will (or reason) to fight is a valid strategy, _but it doesn't happen just because you assume it did._

dude showed up to see his sons fighting I'd be caught off guard too

It was on part with that “saving things we love” line

"...now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is Dumb."

Also Palpatine already came back 10 mins after he got thrown into a reactor

"Somehow, palpatine returned".

In Battlefront III there would have been a cutscene showing how he got captured by Dark Troopers but I guess they didn't have the budget here...

@@kuchom well, considering the original star wars is an anti-war movie

​@@kuchom The original hack who actually convinced people that movies that involve large battles, wars and blood are actually anti-war was a genius.

Strand Wars: The Phantom Mantis

the amount of times i played that game on my DS is absolutely insane

I had the ds version too. Loved the bot multiplayer mode

Yep.

@@SaucyDawsieI played the DS campaign way more than I should've.

@@zetastreaker47 i probably beat the game hundreds of times over a year or two

Star Wars 1313 comes close too

@@theogbeaver Yeah that too! I remember seeing early alpha footage of the game that was leaked about a year ago and the build looked great! 😭

The cancellation of Prey 2 was just brutal. I really liked the bounty hunter trailer and I think that the game would have had GOTY potential if it was anywhere close to the basedness of the trailer.

Actually Battlefront III was never in development by Pandemic, as they refused to make a third game with the little budget and time, LucasArts was willing to give them. The PC and console version of Battlefront III was in development by Free Radical Design. Ground to space combat was their idea, but it seems they overestimated themselves, as they missed every deadline and their playable builds didn't live up to LA's expectations, so it was cancelled after the original release date was already missed by more than a year (early 2008 release, cancelled April 2009). Rebellion was tasked with the PS2 and PSP version, while n-space got to develop the DS version. As these versions were already finished, they got renamed Elite Squadron and released, except the PS2 version, as LucasArts didn't saw reason in releasing a spin-off title on the PS2 and didn't want to use the name Battlefront III for a game only available on a last-gen console and handhelds.

@@shadwsmoke Ahh I see. Appreciate the correction!

If you watch the leaked (and unfinished) cutscenes of Battlefront III, you will find one where Kota talks with X2 and recruits him for the rebel alliance. He was actually supposed to be in the game. Funnily he didn't appear in Battlefront III's later missions without explanation why. They probably weren't allowed to confirm Kota alive or dead, as it could contradict (now not so) possible sequels to The Force Unleashed.

General kota was the master of Falon Grey the jedi you where cloned from, so he recruited you

Yes, some Star Wars games were really rough in their story back then, but I think the Battlefront III story would have been the worst offender of them all, cause what we can see of it really feels like FanFiction: The Game. PSP Elite Squadron is even worse with it, cause it doesn't even have the whole story, due to the mess behind the scenes.

It's almost like a Disney Star Wars project except before Disney.

@@shadwsmoke BF3 really had potential with the gameplay, I wasn't really interested in the story of it.

@@shadwsmoke Idk some of the concepts for the story with art would of been interesting as it uno reversed ep3's out come with all the jedi temple turning to the dark side for some reason and there was a light side anakin turned to light side vader from what im guessing would of had to stop the now evil jedi temple so....?

@@shadwsmokethis game wanted to be the avengers endgame of star wars games, thats why they put General Kota in it, and the guy from the other psp game(rogue scuadron). I bet they also wanted to put Starkiller, Kyle Katarn, Mara Jade, the repubic comandos, everyone and everything from that era of Star Wars games

My first all nighter as a kid was the day BF2 dropped lol

@@mixnflix101 Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2 + GTA San Andreas. The holy trinity of my PS2 experience.

Same, I remember plaything that on my old PS2.

Same those were the good old days simpler times better times. Felt the same when playing KOTOR 2 and republic commando

You might have fun with some of the classic Battlefront 2 mods. There are some pretty good ones. There is an enormous Umbara map with an enormous amount of troops and the modders even added in space to ground combat. I'm sure by now there must be a few other decent ones too. Unfortunate that the multiplayer especially for mods is dead.

I only ever played this on emulator, long before I had a pc or anything

Star wars sounds and fx go a long way to make their boring games enjoyable.

Best thing tbh

I pooped myself in an applebees once, gotta say that's probably #1 on the list

Amen..that thing was awesome

@@janschaffstall8261 Love my Vita and have Adrenaline on it, but I treasure my original PSP like a piece of atlantis

I still maintain the PSP had some pretty good games on it and you will never convince me otherwise. I don't care that it didn't have a second analog stick, some of the truly great games on the system worked pretty well without it.

Same,if only they can remake this for console

This game has been so forgotten over time, and today game studios aren't even taking inspiration from this one ... I just loved this SW game for its galactic campaign mode and of course the ground - air - space - capital ship battles.

Rise of Skywalker was better than this

@@deadshot5007 I mean, RoS was a multi-million dollar work, made about 14 years after Elite Squadron, for a movie screen. Elite Squadron is a 2009 PSP game, cobbled together from the butchered remains of Battlefront 3 and prayer. I would be surprised if it weren't better visually. The writing? No, Elite Squadron's better.

@@Snipergod1024 What part of the writing is better?

@@deadshot5007 The parts that don't have rampant lore-breaking of established rules, of course! Elite Squadron is no masterpiece of writing, but at least it's consistent with the lore of its universe.

@@Snipergod1024 LoL it literally doesn't fit with either EU Clone Wars or post ROTJ lore. It's a giant fan fiction mess all around(at least the psp version).

there are also leaked cutscene that are ps3 graphics

"Expanded upon control schemes"? What?

Explain halo 3

@@mane0ne Whats a halo

​​@@mane0neAnnoying af sections where Master Chief has waifu hallucinations and moves slower than a snail, and they are numerous. And for the game meant to "finish the fight" it sure ended on a cliffhanger, minor as it is

@steelbear2063 crying about maybe 10 minutes of small in game cutscenes is a reach if I've ever heard one. Also chief finished the fight with the Covenants prophets, who were the main antagonists of the entire series.

​@@mane0ne Crying? Bruh you really thought. Annoying is annoying. And the main character being stuck in space waiting for rescue is definitely a cliffhanger.

Its play on a emulator. Normal it not looks like that . And yes i know i have the game original

ITS QUIET

Fair enough. The only time I heard about Elite Squadron was by word of mouth when it was still new. There was effectively zero marketing for it, which both makes sense and is a shame.

Somehow, the dead spoke

Ds was better but not always.....

But the V Wing was canonically a fighter, the direct predecessor to the TIE Fighter actually. Making it a bomber was always a nonsensical choice

Definitely Imperial. Delta Squad stayed loyal

@@steelbear2063 I think the idea was to have Seven on the Rebel side and Delta Squad on the Imperial side.
