I was skeptical about it at first, but Mav's right; that list isn't a 2010 release list, it's a 2010 E3 Press Center list, so a list of games to be covered this year at E3. If it's real, that is. So I'm a little less skeptical.

Hasn't "The Force Unleashed II" already been announced at 2009's E3? Or do I not understand how E3 works?

EDIT: Nevermind, it wasn't.

TFU2 was announced at the 2009 VGAs. Still, they could be showing the first gameplay *IF* the list is real, which honestly I doubt. I'm going to keep the "until I see official proof it isn't happening" stance.

I just read a Facepunch topic about this list-Apparently Kotaku proved it's fake.

Kotaku hasn't posted such an article; as with any rumor remember it is best to cite your sources as best as possible.

BF3 is dead. Foever. They are not going to make it. No matter what news you hear, read, or site you go to.

Only a sith deals in absolutes. :vader2:


Seriously though, that's a pretty bold statement. Unless there's something you aren't telling us, you know no more about what the big boys at Lucasarts are planning than the rest of us.

Yeah, like LUCAS ARTS isn't going to at least consider revisiting a series everyone thought they were done with? :roll:

I'm king of hoping more for KOTOR 3 (not the MMO, but an offline rpg) than BF3 TBH, because BF2 has such a strong modding community and modders have added so much more to the game than there was when it was first released, that it'd take an awful lot for a BF3 to be worth it. (like what we saw in the leaked footage) What I'm going to do personally is not worry about it and then when E3 rolls around in June I'm going to see what was announced.

Well, there is the saying, "once you go MMO, you can't go back". I'm yet to see a franchise return to its origins after following in the footsteps of World of Warcraft.

Well, that's proof enough for me. Kotaku wouldn't outright call it a fake unless they knew somehow. Yes, they post rumors, but they always state that it's a rumor.

That being said, mystery solved, topic locked.

The original post didn't mention this at all, this was an add-on to that. That's one rumor debunked but I don't see any harm in continuing a discussion (provided it doesn't get spammy).

Actually, according to Wookieepedia, KOTOR 3 was cancelled.

Its either a fake call or the CSR (Customer Service Representative) was just trying to get the kid off the phone. Puny CSRs don't get information like that -- especially not before the game itself is revealed.

Not to mention anyone who knows that might be talking would almost certainly be unauthorized and putting their Career on the line, and I know I sure as heck wouldn't if it were my job. Especially not just to spite my employer.

That makes me think the game might have been in progress for both PC and PSP, but the PC version got cut and the game got renamed.
