Do you think Lucas Arts will announce anything this year? I want Battlefront 3 or Imperial commando (if they ever realize it was one of their best games)

[Fluffy_the_ic]

I'm mostly excited to see AC3, Halo 4, Dishonored, and Dawnguard.

[Moving_Target]

Ghost Recon comes out before E3, why would it be there unless they have a teaser for upcoming dlc?

I certainly hope LA announces or teases something because they have nothing. They have dropped off the radar for a long time. At this point I think it's a higher chance of it being Imp Commandos. But hopefully something.

I'm excited to see what the final details on the WiiU are and which games are coming at launch. Maybe MAYBE a new Smash Bros teaser.

The biggest thing I want out of E3 is awesome new announcements and games not only for this year, but for the next two years. I want to get excited for something down the road.

[Lephenix]

Lucasarts will reveal something, but i don't know what.

[Dohnutt]

Crysis 3 is exciting. I've grown to enjoy the two games.

[MawDrallin]

I'm interested in Black Ops 2 and Assassin's Creed III, I'm hoping LA will reveal something good there, and I definately want to see the new Medal of Honor game.

[Cerfon Rournes]

Imperial Commando would be nice. I hope that LA can get their stuff together and start making good games again.

[giftheck]

Truth be told, I wouldn't be surprised if LucasArts revealed a Clone Wars or LEGO game, or another TFU game.

[THEWULFMAN]

Another Clone Wars game? Maybe. TFU III was canceled though, it's not happening last I heard. It's probably (though not definitely)too early for another Lego game too, maybe next year.

[Labj]

Ghost Recon comes out before E3, why would it be there unless they have a teaser for upcoming dlc?

I am pretty sure i didnt put GR on the E3, but instead in the list of games that i think will be great. And GR:FS is a good game.

[Twilight_Warrior]

too early for another Lego game too, maybe next year.

Travelling Tales has already confirmed LEGO Lord of the Rings, as well as LEGO Batman 2, so I expect to see those at E3, but I agree in that there's probably not going to be another LEGO Clone Wars game this year.

I actually don't expect that one until after the series finale. I mean, they MIGHT milk it and make two more games, but if season 3 brought the transition from phase 1 to phase 2 armor, and season 4 introduced phase 2 to all the clones, I expect season 6 might be our last. The Clone Wars only lasted so long.
So bearing that theory in mind, if they release another LEGO Clone Wars game next year, it's going to be post-season 5, and they'd have 1 season left over. It's more likely they'd just wait for that one season. Or, potentially, include the unreleased season 6 risk spoiling the last season like they did with Episode III in the first LEGO Star Wars game.

LucasArts is going to announce a new Star Wars franchise just a few days before E3. So no new TFU or LEGO Star Wars by the looks...neither SWBFIII though. I hope it's gonna be a more serious Star Wars game again.

[guru]

I feel like in a few years there will be Lego games for any movie they comes out... Legos firefly.... Lego hunger games... Lol I wOuld pay a jillion dollars to play Lego skyrim or Lego Everquest buhaha

[Teancum]

We really don't know what it's going to be. Remember that though Free Radical went into administration all of the art assets still belong to LucasArts. It's technically possible (though very unlikely) that they or another team have been working on it since under a new engine. I wouldn't say get your hopes up, but don't rule it out either.

In reality though I have no idea what they're going to do. Given that Star Wars titles have lost so much steam I can't imaging it'll be a space sim (too niche) or a game in certain parts of the EU (Thrawn Trilogy, Legacy, Yuuzhan Vong). No, I'm expecting yet another ho-hum Clone Wars game that I play through solely for the voice acting and cutscenes. (Yes, I played through Republic Heroes and Jedi Alliance.

Whatever the Star Wars game is I just want it to be fun, available on PC and consoles, and have online multiplayer. I'll be happy if those three criteria are met.

[TK432]

I wouldn't mind playing through yet another clone wars era game. Though i really hope it's not gonna be based on the tv series again. I'd really want to see a star wars game that has an older audience targeted. Gimme a good Star Wars game and I'm in, no matter what franchise.

On another note. I'm really looking forward to Halo 4's spartan ops missions. That sounds really promising. 343 has taken a huge risk cutting Firefight for it (they did right?).

[THEWULFMAN]

Legos firefly....

Yes!

Lego skyrim

YES!

Heh. You're not alone. They didn't suck did they? They just weren't very good either. I'd like to see a game with the quality of a game like SWBF2 or Republic Commando, yet is in the Star Wars The Clone Wars franchise. I like the art style of the games, and the acting, just not the gameplay so much.


Oh well. I am eager for E3 this year though. I always am. I don't know why. Well, yes I do. I'm a gamer. So is pretty much everyone on this forum. Not really curious at all that I love E3. But anyway, I digress.

It's only a few more days away and we won't have to guess what LA is doing. Hope for the best, expect the worst I say.

[THEWULFMAN]

Agreed with Tean, I think 1313 is just their project code name and nothing more.


Anyway, another thing I'm looking forward to is any more info Bethesda will be releasing about Skyrim's 'Dawnguard' DLC.

[Moving_Target]

Well that is exciting. I'm on the fence about this whole "LET'S REVEAL STUFF ON GT.TV BEFORE E3 STARTS." It kind of kills the excitement of it being you know revealed at the event.

Its interesting that they're doing it this way, but I don't really mind because we get information faster

[Moving_Target]

Very true, and now here's a chance to remind everyone that tomorrow at 1am if you're east coast USA GT.TV E3 episode will air and the star wars game will be revealed.

It is nice to have more information spread in different ways, I just find those announcements would be cooler if held off for actual E3.
