After a lot of work I managed to get my hands on Star Wars Battlefront III and wanted to share the infamous cancelled game that I'm sure many of you wanted to play.
I know not everyone will get the chance to play this immediately, but over time I expect the modding community to be able to change that.
The game build works on Xbox 360 Development kits, XNA kits, Test kits, and any 360 that can use RGLoader (which makes it be treated like a Development kit) so if your 360 is modded you can get it working via RGLoader.
Some important notes
-Xenia the 360 emulator will crash if you use it. It may work in the future but for now it does not.
-Default.xex and bf_gold.xenon.xex act the same as far as I can tell but I'm likely wrong.
-When booting you'll get a purple screen. It's cool just hit the Start button and wait a moment and you'll get to the title screen.
-Expect poor framerate.
-Expect bugs.
-Expect crashes/freezing.
-Expect anything I didn't list here.
I have made both a Mega upload and a torrent for this build. I would prefer you use the Mega link unless you wish to use the torrent to seed. I will not be uploading the game to Mega again after it's been removed (if it will be), so once the link is down there use the torrent.
The game build: https://mega.nz/#!zQUj3LqL!4T4MRLn9YnU3fDE6wsvp6xGavNlrROFl0a2DFpDX_CE
The torrent: https://mega.nz/#!ORtQEJQK!M3wX9s1uSnzpQUvtrJQhbo0nKqDaiCEvmE03jLJZ3b0
I am currently processing a short video of the game once booted, and will post or edit when the link is available.
I hope you all have a nice time with this, some may be mad at me but the story behind this build is a disaster and not releasing it will cause more issues than anything else.
Sincerely - ProtoFaggot
>>324636860
welp, just waiting for someone with x360 to confirm it
thanks anyway OP
Bumping this shit
>>324636860
SOMEONE TEST IT QUICK
>>324637167
threw it on /vg/ and reddit's star wars battlefront board too.
i can only hope that they dont ban me for my name there being ProtoFaggot
I don't have a devkit so I cant play it but all the files are in the torrent.
>>324637302
I googled your name and saw a reddit link
the megalink might get deleted
strong doubt
>>324636860
First for OP has the high ground.
>>324636860
Is this the latest build?
>>324636860
Can you make a screenshot of a Wookiee looking at a neon sign on Coruscant? Just to know this is legit.

>>324636860
>yaddle_fleshlight.jpg
not this time
>>324637893
Get a chewbacca-looking character to do something specific like look at a sign on the map that looks like some futuristic city.
Mind telling the story behind the game by any chance?
>>324638069
Ill see what i can do for you.
this takes time. loading is one hell of a time waster on this build.
take this pic for the mean time.
ill make a webm shortly
This got posted like a month ago
>>324637635
Just posted it as a warning since I think reddit mods might be the type of fags to report your links
just as a warning to let everyone know to download in case it gets removed
>>324638261
oh man... after the webm ill give you a quick greentext.
>>324638069
this work?
>>324638463
thanks for the warning
If the PC version is found could modders finish the game then?
Because that would be a dream come true.
>>324638545
Not even close to what I asked aside from the character, but I'll take it.
>>324638261
One of the clones is force sensitive.
cautiously optimistic
>We didn't get this instead of that garbage "reboot" by Dice
I'M PLATINUM MAD
I'm gonna fucking learn how to mod my box just to play this damn thing.
Please for fucks sake let this be real, EA will be all over this to trash it when it's better than their shitty Battlefront though.
Finally someone leaked this... build has been molested by the 360 community for far too long.
>>324637518
Why are so many people trying to bring back this old as fuck "high ground" meme?
Fuck yes. Well done Anon.
you're lucky no one here is old enough to remember lost boy.

That's why i'm waiting until someone posts a youtube video of it or something.
Webm anything really of actual gameplay.
Never trust anything.
>>324636860

It's almost 4 years actually.
>>324639192
Fug. I wish I had a modded 360 instead of a modded PS3 now.
Posting in potentially legendary thread
>>324639192
My dick and my heart. OP, you are a god if this is real.
Does this include the source code and assets?
Im monitoring this threadI hope someone manage to get the pc version too
OP, please, can you do a webm of you running in a circle and then shooting straight up in the sky and then jumping?
If so, I'm downloading this shit asap
>>324638261
The story mode ?
>Modded clones with force
>2 brothers
>one goes full edgy after order 66
>the other runs and join the rebels
>story of 4-6
>evil twin goes full sith and want to rule the Galaxy
>good twin goes Jedi and kills the evil twin
It's the same story from elite squadron(psp) if I'm not mistaken
If this fucking thing is real
Tell me OP
Do you have insider info on FFXV?
There's one thing I just have to know
>>324639192
Damn, this looks promising. Does it also contain all the heroes and villains from BF II ?
>>324639136

>Le cuck maymay

>>324639449
Thanks anon, but I was mainly referring to the back story of the game's development and cancelation
I swear OP if this is fake...
OH SHIT HAPPENING
How the hell did you come across this, OP?
Looks like this thread's about to get crazy
>>324639301
This was like 2008 wasn't it? no doubt the PS3 version would be inferior to 360 at that time, especially an alpha build
Holy shit OP you crazy mother fucker.
So how much content is actually in this? What maps and modes and stuff like that?
>>324636860
Holy fuck. PC version WHEN?
>>324639712
I don't know anything about the game, I just like dicking about with alpha builds of stuff
>>324639750
The canned build was complete iirc, but needed debugging.
how easy is to buy an 360 and mod it.
might do it just for this?
>>324639170
>post a webm or something faggot. Then I'll buy your words.
processing it now. i wish my capture software didnt take ages
>>324639301
i have a debug ps3. honestly im more in the ps3 stuff than 360.
>>324639506
hell if i knew. i never played any battlefront.
Im sorry for keeping you waiting but heres the opening of the video im uploading
>>324639524
>gaming is already killed
Sick memes bro, did you get your GamerGate paycheck yet? I hear they are paying white-knights like yourself, or were you the "bigger" man who turned down a fair lady's paycheck because you are a man filled to the brim with honor and chivalry?In case you didn't catch it, that was sarcasm. Because gaming is far from dead.
>>324636860
OP I'd love to hear the story behind you getting this and all that if you wouldn't mind. Just curious, this is really cool.
>>324637768
sause
Goddamn. I need a fucking modded 360 now. This could be the savior we need
>>324639750
Probably more maps and modes than Battlefront.
skeptical
yet hopeful
>believing it
Kek
>>324636860
I like to expect the best of people, so if this is true, you made a man happy for the first time in a long time
OP, how much do you know? I wanna know how many maps there are, where they take place, how the gun play is etc.
I just have a shit ton of questions, whiteboi.
>>324636860
>Not the PC version
Well, thanks for the effort OP.
>>324639830
This could be the start of a long journey that leads to a complete release. If it's legit, I'd lend a hand with assets and stuff to bring it up to modern day.
Holy shit
So this is why I'm still going on this site
QUICK!
POST YFW THIS ENDS UP BEING REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone please confirm this?
OP if this is real, you are fucking incredible.
Alhough I don't have a modded 360 I may have to buy one on ebay if this turns out to be real.
This is all I ever wanted
>>324639875
What kind of debug/alpha PS3 stuff can I go exploring with my Rebug 4.76 REX?

Who can be blamed for the cancelation then? Free Radical? LucasArt? Disney?
>>324639880
Yea thank god we have such classics as Assassins Creed, Call of Duty, and Madden! Those silly gamers are just stuck in the past. I can't wait to see what epic games we get this year.

>>324640437
Fuck off, /g/.
>>324640286
Eh I think 70-80% is a more roughly estimate, its probably buggy as fuck and miss some planned content.
The thing is that it should be in such a state that any amateur team could probably finish it
>>324640120
I'm so sorry that the only games you get are AC, CoD, and Madden. Luckily for those of us who don't live literally underground we get lots of games that aren't complete shit. But who am I kidding, you've already proven yourself to be a nostalgia-fag who can't accept any other games than the ones he played in his childhood as being "good".
>>324640035
>If this actually came out it would probably still have a decent sized playerbase
>Blows EA's Battlefront out of the water and it's not even complete
Now if only someone can leak a beta build of SM64 or OoT my life will be complete.
>>324640102
We can hope, maybe then we finish it ourselves and boom suck it EA.
>>324640286
that's literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard. why the fuck would they cancel it at 99%? wouldn't they lose money?
>>324640035

LucasArts. Execs got nervous because they were taking too long.
>>324640286
Wrong. It was only halfway done and they had wasted millions of dollars already. Were going bankrupt and Lucasarts couldn't afford to give them any more because they too were struggling. The game was then passed to Rebellion who finished it as the PSP game Elite Squadron. It was shit. Do your homework before spouting /v/ lies.
>>324640102
We can only hope a functional PC version comes from this. Fuck you EA/Disney ruining great potential. One of my favorite group of devs too and they got stripped apart.

Free Radical literally went bankrupt while making this game because of that failed FPS they did and cost Lucasarts millions for nothing, not Lucasarts' fault whatsoever.

/v/ certainly doesn't considering how many blatant lies and falsehoods always get spread around here about stuff like this. It's not hard to find the truth though, this game's demise was well documented and the fault lies entirely with Free Radical. It's the same sort of nonsense with KotOR 2 where /v/ thinks George Lucas hated it and tried to sabotage it when the reality is that Obsidian admitted they were the ones that committed to releasing that Christmas when Lucasarts even gave them a choice of delaying it when they weren't capable of meeting deadlines on a bunch of the content that was cut.
>>324641557

>>324641335
Yeah, the game in the state it's in is very unfinished. Half the maps are still using placeholder textures and there's not really any AI implemented. Shooting also wasn't fully finished. The game needed at least another year of development.

I FUCKING LOVE YOU FAGGOT
