I work at gamestop, we are to begin excepting BFIII pre-orders the 14th, which is soon after the VGA awards. Yes it will be announced im guessing, why would they let us start excepting pre-orders for a non displayed game? So yeah. The official release date of the game is March 8, 2011. Just signed up to tell you guys. Your welcome.

Neat find and we'll find out if it's true Saturday. Also March 8, 2011 is the same day Dragon Age II comes out.

Will you elaborate on how you received this information (how were you told, and what exactly was said?), please?

If either of your statements are true—well—these are very exciting times (yeah, that's a Matrix line).

Those little paraphrases are all I needed to see to be scared.

You work at GameStop and have BFIII news. Normally, this would be great! But we get GS people all the time knowing nothing (no offence).

VGA awards announcement. Again, a bit skeptical considering we've been told this for a while.

Questioning GS is not important to the legitimacy, just something that everyone does.

Finding official dates has also been a promise broken many times for BFIII.

If you are right, I redact everything I said and will possibly hug you. If I am right, damn my omniscient ability to point out faults!

I will bring home all the stuff you guys need to see and scan it on my scanner. Oh and also forgot to mention Spark Unlimited is the developer of the game, Lucas arts is the publisher. And as far as im aware i think they are using a modified version of the Unreal Engine?

That would be great to see this stuff because if it says the developer I have high hopes. Even my 8-ball is ambiguous: All Signs Point to Possibly

Hi. This is my first post here. I've been following the articles on this site for a long time and have felt constant disappointment along with my fellow Star Wars fans. I do, however, have but a shred of hope for the VGA.

I have to ask an obvious question, though, because my time waiting has brought out the skeptic in me...

Could we confirm these are two different people? I have a sneaking suspicion that it's a little too convenient. It's nothing personal, really, I'm just very weary of trolls and other unreliable/useless sources.

Does lucas arts even have the incentive to push out a sequel to battlefront 2 anymore? Seeing as though The Force Unleashed franchise has beaten the battlefront franchise in sales.

Yep. I just did a check, and unless one of them is using a proxy they are indeed different people.

Hey, I was looking around the website, and I took a look at the senior multiplayer design, not only does it say the other stuff, but it also confirms that it is science fiction, so it's not anything like a modern war shooter. Seriously, like the other guys said, how many science fiction, third person, high profile, triple-a games with an "awaiting and highly critical audience" out there?? I'm critical, and I'm certainly awaiting this announcement. If not at the VGA's, I have very strong hopes that this sucker is going to be announced finally.
