I was going to add this to my last post (http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=5152.0) but a big red box told me I shouldn't :)
I read this today and thought it might be of interst, obviously the second part's just rumours;
'Just to make you feel even more depressed Star Wars: First Assault has been revealed to be an Xbox Live Arcade game. The title was originally discovered via a trademark filling, but rather than a reboot of Rebel Assault, or any other big budget endeavour, it's speculated to be the remains of Spark Unlimited's work on Battlefront III.'
Edit: Here's a picture:

Looks like it's the same concept artist as Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron, that might be a good thing.

I was told Spark only offered to do BFIII, they didn't actually take it on. That said, I wouldn't be too surprised if this was actually a reboot of the Battlefront series, because, let's face it, the name has pretty much become jinxed to developers.
The wait for a direct sequel to SWBF2 has been longer than the wait for Half Life 2: Episode 3.
Valvetime means nothing, it's all about Lucastime.
I have a bad feeling this isn't the Battlefront we're looking for, possibly a lifeless FPS.
But I'll reserve judgement until it actually apparates.
The way I see it is this. Most if not all of us on this site were disappointed with SWBFII which is why we still play SWBFI! So SWBFIII would just be a better version of SWBFII. :shrug: Personally the recent Star Wars games haven't been that appealing.
Huh? BF2's a decent game. Better graphics, for one thing. Just the gameplay isn't as intense as battlefront 1 and you can strafe in vehicles/go prone.

I can agree with your last point but not your first. The reason I still played BFI was because for PC that was the only title I could get hold of at the time (I now have the PC version of BFII and I still have my PS2 copy). I'm sure it's for similar reasons for the others (for Mac players, BFI is/was the only Battlefront title on the Mac anyways)
Well im a mac player And i got both KotOR ii as SWBF ii for the mac. Just a matter of what kinda site you look
