New Star Wars Game to be Announced During VGAs

Brainiac9000, one of our commenters, recently informed us that a new Star Wars video game will be announced during the 2009 Spike TV Video Game Awards on December 12th. Kotaku corroborated this news and provided a link to the Gametrailers.com teaser video. Although probably not related to Star Wars: The Old Republic, save for the clips of the "Deceived" trailer, this should be interesting news to any Star Wars fans out there.

It's not what I'm hoping for...but from the little information available I'm guessing it's a lightsaber related game (TFU/JA style).

First, there seems to be a clear focus on lightsaber combat in the Gametrailers teaser. Second, the "M" rating could suggest a dismemberment feature, since it's considered Blood and Gore ("mutilation of body parts") and thus would require such a rating (source: http://www.esrb.org/ratings/ratings_guide.jsp).

Again, just a guess.

Cheers

They quit working on Battlefront 3 because the company making it went out of business. The way things work behind the scenes means somebody else may have picked up on what was started.

Couldn't guess to be honest, I think it could be various things. There isn't really any New Republic games out there (Jedi Knight games are the only two aren't they), but tbh I would LOVE a battlefront 3. I'm still kinda annoyed that they put elite squadron on DS and PSP >:| I was looking forward to space/land battles in one, and they put it on hand-helds lol :/

A game based on "Heir to the Empire", the first book in the Thrawn Trilogy that is pretty much considered the sequel trilogy by all SW nerds(with HttE as Episode 7 by extension)? I wouldn't mind that as a game.

I think he said "you have a stronger knowledge of the force than Yoda himself..."

All of those statements appear to be just framing the level of geek-ness and that despite what we know, will still be blown away. Hehe.

It could be the rumored new casual MMO from Sony Online Entertainment...

I hope that one is 'Sandbox'-ish. TOR is kinda a non-sandbox-ish MMO, and SOE have done quite a bit of Sandbox stuff in the past.

I was under the impression that had already been "announced", but now that you mention it that is a possibility
