    I used to laugh when people got Battlefront and Battlefield mixed up, but now that they're both under the same studio... it just feels weird. I mean, I'm still excited for it- it's just different.


    Also, Frostbite engine. Blowing up the Death Star in real time.
    I can dream.

    Need to see the game itself in action. Will it actually feel like a continuation of Battlefront? Will it have, at least, a semblance of the structure that made me love the first 2 games so much? Or will it be just another shooter skinned to look like Star Wars?

    Also, 3rd person or bust...

    I'm intrigued and interested. But I'm not necessarily sold.

    Never played one or two but they look really fun and were highly praised. If the reviews are good, this will be on my must buy list.

    I'll have to see more before I'm in.

    Even if it's EA I can't help but be excited about this.

    In an interview with DICE, they said it won't be Battlefield + Star Wars "because that would be boring" DICE are such an awesome studio.

    Also, I'm so sure that heaps of the people who have posted in this thread were saying they wouldn't get it since EA was involved back when it was all being speculated. So many hypocrites...

    I can't wait myself, it was rather obvious that DICE would make it.

    I remember calling that as well. When they announced that DICE was doing a Star Wars game, I thought "what else could it be?" The format of Battlefield is very similar to the Battlefront games. I was still very surprised to see anything from the game or any sort of teaser trailer. I just expected a logo and title for the announcement with Star Wars music playing.

    Bumping this because Five Below has the Grestest Hits edition of Battlefront 2 for Playstation 2 at only $5 AND the online STILL works! I just played 3 games with 10 people!

    So if you want to jump in on some classic BF2 online action and for only $5, go grab yourself a copy!

    I'm going to play some more right now! :D  I am playing under the name "DURGE."

    I'm really terrified that this game will be in development hell for eternity and never see the light of day.

    I'd really like it if they released Battlefront 2 on PSN.
