They should have at least released the PS2 version, just giving it the same rename as the PSP one. That console was still popular back then, so I'm a little baffled that they didn't seeing as it was already complete.
This game’s plot is just one giant fanfiction lmao. “Uhhh Jedi and Sith clones, evil clone wookiee army, Force Unleashed, Renegade Squadron and Jedi Academy characters and settings and there was actually a rebel attack on the Death Star BEFORE A New Hope!” And I don’t mean that as an insult, I love how crazy and weird the story is. This game probably feels the most like the old legends books and comics. Great video as always!
Oh the memories… I played the DS version of Elite Squadron all the time as a kid. Good times. I even decided to give X2 a proper name when he became a Rebel, and then a Jedi: Tal Grey.
@@gabethebabe3337 agreed it’s truly sad. Same I don’t consider SWTOR KOTOR 3 and wish we could’ve gotten obsidians KOTOR 3. So many great Star Wars games cancelled ahead of their time
Yeah, while it makes me sad that we never got BF3, Elite Squadron was an amazing game for PSP. They really crammed everything they could into that little console and while many corners had to be cut, you can see the passion that was put there. The story is positively crazy and as a kid, I really loved that the characters changed in the menu depending on where in campaign you were. It only shows that BF3 would've been an amazing game if only it was not in development hell. Also, I would love to see a video about BF3 from you!
the cumbersome controls can be swapped to having the four face buttons act as your right stick, with the actual analog stick being fully used for movement, much more intuitive. - in fact you can do this in all of the psp games in the battlefront series.
That's how I play on my Xbox, it feels way better. First did this with GUN: Showdown, also a Portable game with clunky camera but that allowed the use of face buttons for that.
I worked on Battlefront III with some of my friends. my NDA has expired a long time ago so i can speak now. Yes indeed those games were Battlefront III and its really a shame the real one didnt release, it was nearly done but had serious stability issues that slowed our work to a crawl, thats ultimately why it was scrapped i think. I was a 3rd party QA tester and i recall that 60% of my time was waiting on reboots and loadings, we could not get anything done.
@@battlefrontarchives All maps were done. Maybe there were some problems with textures or collision but the whole campaign was done and multiplayer maps also. The problem was not the art pieces, all of those were done, it was the fontionnality of the game that didn't work.
Never got to try Elite Squadron, but I had dozens of hours on Renegade Squadron. The customization was so cool at the time. The handheld Battlefront games were so underrated.
I got Renegade Squadron after Elite Squadron and that made it harder for me to play a lot of it. Always felt like a downgrade to me, though that doesn't mean I didn't play 100s of hours of it growing up. Both great games imo and love the customization
Grew up playing all 3 Battlefronts on PSP. I had an original Xbox but never got to experience them on the other consoles. Played it on every road trip and plane ride for probably 4 years straight as a kid. Good mems ;)
Would absolutely love a video of you covering battlefront 3. I only barely know the basics of what went down so a full video explaining everything would be great
The DS version handles the plot and writing so much better in my opinion, more cutscenes, less of a firm loop, and X2 isn't a piece of cardboard. I still love how both versions are like a culmination of the entire Legends storyline of the games, bringing together Dark Forces and Force Unleashed.
Yeah I would definitely argue the ds version has the better campaign, even in terms of gameplay. I hated playing through the campaign on the psp while I've played the ds campaign many, many times over. That being said, the psp version has a far better instant action and galactic conquest, so both have their merits
the story on the DS version is actually so good that it's honestly on par with Republic Commando for me, if not better. fighting your brother at the very end never failed to be epic and emotional
Yeah but the gameplay on the PSP one is unmatched as far as any portable Battlefront games go. Some mechanics in BFII on PSP were slightly better but the online multiplayer on this was incredible. You had 16 players and loads of bots and the battle is going on both on land and in space and in the capital ships. At any point you can get in a ship and fly around.
There's a mod for SWBF2 called Battlefront 3 Legacy by ElFabricio that gives us a pretty good look into what could have been. It uses a lot of content from the cancelled game from what I understand, and while certainly not perfect, it does manage to scratch that itch.
@@MileHiGuy95 Wonder if with the new classic collection being 64bit and such we could get a much broader expansion and maybe finally get around the level limit in the original PC port
I really wish the terrible Battlefront collection had more time and effort put into it, in part so they could get in a bunch of mod features like online Galactic Conquest and add this PSP game with added dual analog support.
This game upscaled on the psp emulator is about as close as we're gonna get to the PS2 version and it actually looks good also this imo is the best Battlefront on the psp hands down.
I'd love to see a video discussing Battlefront 3. One other thing I'd suggest is looking at the mod Battlefront 3 Legacy for Battlefront 2. It's a mod that is recreating the maps seen in the Battlefront 3 clips but in Battlefront 2. Including custom assets and even seamless ground to space.
The PSP game was my childhood! I played it so much I basically ended up breaking my PSP in the end. I still have it today, and have recently managed to get it playing again. Its upsetting the main game never came out, though, would have loved to see the the difference between Battlefront 3 and the PSP version.
Grew up with Elite Squadron on PSP! Absolutely loved it back in the day. I played Renegade too but Elite Squadron was where most of my childhood memories of being introduced to Battlefront comes from. Only got into classic Battlefront II on PC many years later. The BF3 Legacy mod is great but man a complete BF3 for consoles and PC would’ve been great. Hopefully the future holds a Battlefront III that does the series justice and takes from Free Radical’s work too.
I'm just releasing that all these Star Wars Games took place in the same universe. I always find Pre-Disney Star Wars content so facinating...and bitter sweet.
They should release the PS2 version. Imagine how cool it would be to get a new ps2 game after all these years. So many people would buy it on the nostalgia factor alone
I remember playing Elite Squadron online. It was kind of easy getting a win online, since no one ever bothered to defend the capital ship. You could just capture the ion cannon, get the shield down, and end the match way to quick.
I remember trying to play the Dantooine map in multiplayer and never going back after hackers took over and just spammed orbital strike rifle shots all over the place.
Totally forgot about this one! I played it on the DS back in the day and even though it was pretty simple I had fun playing it. It was cool seeing the story proceed after the events of ROTJ
I remember playing this on the DS when I was younger. the hardest parts for me were the X1 boss fight and the defense on Hoth. both took me ages to complete, especially X1 since the lightsaber combat is not easy on that part. Also, I'd love to see a video about Battlefront 3 since I like analyzing on what we could have gotten. from leaked cutscenes I saw online, it seems that the story in the DS version is more accurate to what the story was in 3.
Same here bro! lol they literally built it using assets from BF3, also cutscenes, but scaled down the scope and visual fidelity and obviously used the Renegade Squadron engine.
I recently played through this game on the hardest difficulty and it is the hardest game I've ever played and straight up unfair most of the time especially if you force yourself to use the Jedi class later on if anyone wants a challenge play this
This game was pivotal for me as a kid. I remember playing the final level RIGHT before watching Star Wars in concert at my local stadium, where anthony daniels hosted. I love this game
I had great memories playing Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron in the PSP, it was so much nostalgic! But it's pretty upsetting that we've never got Battlefront 3 on different platforms like the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, the original Xbox, Xbox 360, and of course the PC!
Back in 2009 this game was my introduction to the Battlefront franchise so you can imagine my confusion when I played the critically acclaimed Battflefront 2 (2005) 5 years later in 2014 only to realize it had less features than Elite Squadron.
Same! I played Renegade first but spent way more time in Elite Squadron and have more memories of it. I played classic BFII on PC around 2018. Still very much enjoy it to this day, especially with mods. There’s a BFIII Legacy mod that somewhat replicates the real BFIII by Free Radical but in BFII, and resembles Elite Squadron.
I remember getting Elite Squadron on the DS and falling in love! It is such a great Battlefront game and honestly may be my favorite. It is so so sad what happened to its big brother however. 😢
Say what you will about Elite Squadron, but it is my favorite out of the originals. The land-ship-space gameplay feels like a destination-met, as it were. Basically, Elite Squadron was THE Battlefront game the series was building up to. You could customize your soldier as in Renegade Squadron, the battles take place on land and space (that rhymes, lol), and I enjoyed the inclusion of Rahm Kota as a fan of the Force Unleashed. The controls do suck sometimes, especially when engaged in close-combat. But the flaws to me, are easily missable if you craved the Battlefront 3 we never got. I will say, however, that the DS version is far superior in story, lore and location than the PSP. The best maps in Elite have to be Cato Neimoidia, Endor, Dantooine and Coruscant.
If you want a BF3 experience there is a mod for BF2 (2005) on the PC that actually adds in a lot of the maps and content from the cancelled game including the seamless ground to space combat. It’s called Star Wars Battlefront 3 Legacy. It’s a lot of fun.
Lol, I remember watching videos of this game as a kid thinking it was Battlefront 3. I wish they'd make a console port of this game. Sadly, video game spinoffs are often forgotten by their makers, especially the ones that had mixed or less than favorable reviews.
I'm glad that Battlefront Elite Squadron gets some attention here and there. I loved this game as a kid playing the DS version a crap ton. I am really happy to know the DS version is the complete story even with some variations. I always take this game as part of my personal headcanon. It was such a great game even if it wasnt the best mechanically.
When I was a kid playing Elite Squadron on my PS Vita, I didn’t know anything about battlefront 3, so I used to imagine a home console version of Elite Squadron that would be the perfect sequel to battlefront 2
Man, for me personally battlefront 3 is one of the most painful "What if" of video game history. The fact that BF3 was almost complete and got cancelled for trivial reasons, instead we got the disaster that was the EA BF1 and 2 is just painful and sad
Hehe the DS version's speeder bike level uses the same music track that plays on Ando Prime in episode 1 racer. It's probably from the EP.1 soundtrack, but I really don't remember which one.
I have a friend who worked at Rebellion on it (I won’t share names) said it’s nonsense that BFIII was nearly finished. They were handed the free radical code and files. My friend is a high up designer and he said the files and code was a mess and nowhere near finished. He told me that free radical likely spread that myth to gain attention at the time.
Star Wars Battlefront III can be played on Xenia thanks to the leaked build from Xbox 360. There are mods that fix certain issues in the game; the only thing that doesn't work entirely are the missions in story mode.
haha holy shit dude I fucking loved the DS game as a kid, def an underrated title and easily my favorite game for the switch. it still holds up pretty well for a ds game today, the combat is super satisfying and the story cutscene slides are sick. the story is genuinely quite compelling as well, I must've beaten the game dozens of times as a kid and the final boss never lost it's impact and can even be emotional
Two questions, 1. Did multiplayer in the PSP game limit you to only space or ground battles? Or did those cutscene transitions happen in multiplayer? 2. Did the DS multiplayer support DS download play?
If they added this to PC, the things modders could do with this. Multiple capital ships, large scale maps by modders, and a larger amount of players. All that in this little game would've made this game completely addictive.
This was my entire childhood I have the psp version and Jesus Christ do I love that game wishing Nintendo decides to bring it to there lineup of Star Wars games
We were so close to having this game, i will never understand it. I know they hit a point where the new consoles came out, game hadn't released, they couldn't upscale to HD so a new game would have had to be made.... But the groundwork was all done. The idea of a bigger and better, seamless transitioning battlefront 2 was perfection to anybody's eyes and ears. They could release the damn game completed today and anyone would buy it.
I don't have an apartment, I have a "Desolation Station"
"You just have bedrooms. We have quadrants."
They should have at least released the PS2 version, just giving it the same rename as the PSP one. That console was still popular back then, so I'm a little baffled that they didn't seeing as it was already complete.
Yeah might as well have released the ps2 version if it was finished, wouldn’t have had anything to lose with doing that
If they had, it would have at least had good controls. Playing this on the psp is uncomfortable
Just like what happened with the psp GTA games
@@Leonard.L.Church this. Even emulating the game you can get rid of those clunky controls.
yeah a port would have been nice but it would have looked so shit if they didn't upscale anything

Great video as always!
Before disney took over and made it non-canon, almost all expanded universe star wars stuff was basically fan-fiction made into canon lol
Aside from Luke there is no Jedi Academy characters unless you talk about Novel trilogy by the same name
Pre-Disney Star Wars did a much better job of “X is relevant right now, let’s reference it.” Without milking it to death.
Well SWBF3 was supposed to just be fan fiction and fan service. Like that rumour of light side darth vader
Well for awakens took that road and also the comics
Oh the memories… I played the DS version of Elite Squadron all the time as a kid. Good times.
I even decided to give X2 a proper name when he became a Rebel, and then a Jedi: Tal Grey.

haha holy shit dude I fucking loved the DS game as a kid, def an underrated title and easily my favorite game for the switch. it still holds up pretty well for a ds game today, the combat is super satisfying and the story cutscene slides are sick. the story is genuinely quite compelling as well, I must've beaten the game dozens of times as a kid and the final boss never lost it's impact and can even be emotional
I would like to see your video on the chaos of battlefront 3 development
Two questions,
1. Did multiplayer in the PSP game limit you to only space or ground battles? Or did those cutscene transitions happen in multiplayer?
2. Did the DS multiplayer support DS download play?
Ground and space combat happened simultaneously in multiplayer. It had the same cutscenes.
You should review the unreleased Darth Maul game that still has footage leaked
If they added this to PC, the things modders could do with this. Multiple capital ships, large scale maps by modders, and a larger amount of players. All that in this little game would've made this game completely addictive.
Check out the modders that have rebuilt BF3 dev builds from the code and fixed the sound etc, pretty cool stuff going on
My Favorite UA-camr
This was my entire childhood I have the psp version and Jesus Christ do I love that game wishing Nintendo decides to bring it to there lineup of Star Wars games
I loved playing this game as a kid. I was happy we got something close to Battlefront III, at least.
Seeing as the ps2 version was complete do you ever see a scenario where that version is released on modern consoles
We totally finish the battlefront video collection with the Battlefront 3.
I loved Elite Squadron on the PSP. Hopefully at some point they will do a remaster of it on home consoles. Aspyr could definitely do that.
15:27 I definitely would love to see you Flandrew do a video covering Battlefront 3 and what could have been.
We were so close to having this game, i will never understand it. I know they hit a point where the new consoles came out, game hadn't released, they couldn't upscale to HD so a new game would have had to be made.... But the groundwork was all done. The idea of a bigger and better, seamless transitioning battlefront 2 was perfection to anybody's eyes and ears. They could release the damn game completed today and anyone would buy it.
I would love to see a BF3 video detailing everything about it, its history, gameplay, and ultimately why it got shut down
Please do a Battlefront 3 video! Would love to hear your thoughts and perspectives on it.
