This refers to the front page article.

1) The list doesn't include titles currently being worked on
2) All those games with the exception of BF3 and BF4 have been released
3) The list is in Chronology order
4) BF3 and BF4 appear in the list x'd out around the time when Free radical went under
5) I think the xxxx refers to the games getting cancelled but he wanted to include them because he didn't want any CV gaps.

However, I admit the possibility that he may have moved project within Crytek and BF3/4 may still be worked on by others but I find the probability of Crytek working on a game and its sequel for 4 years without any public disclosure minimal.

Just my 2 cents, will take a more in depth look at all the sources when not so hung over.

What is everybody else thinking?

It's cool to know Free Radical was planning Battlefront 4 (enough to make it on a resume).

CryENGINE and StarWars games (especially Battlefront) seem destined for each other, just as I believe Bethesda and a Star Trek RPG are a match. If Spark doesn't poop out our game, my new hope will be: as Revenge of the Sith 3D is finished being forcibly re-marketed to the planet, Crytek will announce or be in production of BF3. One can dream.

Edit: Actually, it would probably be The Empire Strikes Back 3D.

I'd prefer Crytek over SU, but SU has hired so many new employees there's probably not too many similarities to the old SU.
