Starbreeze 'reinventing classic EA franchise'

The developers of Privateer went on to make Starlancer and then later on Freelancer, all the games are very much alike. I could see a Freelancer 2 coming at some point, but I think Privateer itself is dead.

Syndicate Wars????

Top 5 out-of-nowhere guesses: Fade to Black, Ultima, SSX, Where in Time is Carmen SanDiego, and Shaq Fu... I can't wait to see what starbreeze does with Carmen SanDiego ;) P.S. @Chazmeister The MOH series is not "Dormant" or "Classic" so I'm pretty sure that's ruled out...

Although this game will almost certainly turn out to be System Shock 3, it'd please me to no end to see the 3rd CRUSADER.

I have it for sure now. Drum roll please..... "SPOT...The 7UP GAME"!!!!!!

*Knock* *Knock* Privateer plz!

I agree, I've been saying MUTANT LEAGUE FOOTBALL next gen would be AWESOME!! Totally destructible fields with crazy monsters!!!!!

SSX. Here's hoping.

One other major EA franchise that no has mentioned yet is the Medal of Honor series. My money is on that as Starbreeze's past track record for great games is in developing FPS's. I'm guessing EA have seen how well the new CoD4 game has done and want a piece of that action. Just think a contemporary war shooter a la CoD4 but with Starbreezes less linear and more open world approach to it. Its certainly a game I'd look forwards to.

Wing Commander!! Wing Commander!! Wing Commander!!!!

Let it be another Wing Commander masterpiece!!!!!

what about a new simpsons game. check apu's stand, http://www.universalorlando.com/usf_attr_simpsons.html?__source=emailus0208

Definitely would not mind if Road Rash or Desert/Jungle Strike were brought back to life. Not really caring about the other two titles.

ROAD RASH!

Yeah, leave it to us swedes to save EAs ass ^^

The Darkness isn't nearly as good as Riddick, IMO, but I think Starbreeze can pull this off. I actually hope it's Wing Commander. That series was great for its day.

General Chaos pelz0r!? Anyone remember that game on the Sega Genesis?? LOVED IT!!

I would like to see a XBOX 360 EXNCLAVE 2 plz

I wouldn't mind seeing some of these games brought back to life. That's when EA was fun. They're too busy trying to make a buck.

The Chronicles of Riddick and The Darkness were great games, so lets hope this will be great too.

I wish they would bring back Mutant League Football. But as long as its not James Pond they are reviving I guess its all good.

that riddick game is soooooo good. the last prison quarters was insane.

Road Rash is an absolute must......... please EA bring it back!!!

I wuld KILL fr a new wing cmmander game.

road rash or the strike series would be nice

I heard Molyneux say that a Syndicate sequel was in the works, but not necessarily by his team. Still, I'd sell my sould to see a return of MUTANT LEAGUE FOOTBALL!!!

Oh man, I miss Road Rash and Desert Strike. It hope its either one of those or System Shock 3.

Actually, now that I think of it... it's GOT to be a new MAGIC CARPET title.

OH! I hope it's a new Syndicate game. I quite enjoyed the open-ness of Syndicate Wars. The Deus-Ex universe always reminded me of the Syndicate universe. Regardless, I bet the game is an FPS. Obey the Persuadatron! I still want a Road Rash update... even if it is just an XBLA game. If GTA would just introduce melee weapons on motorcycles and bring back long stretches of highway, Road Rash would be obsoleted.

@nintendorocks. Sinse Dice are still Making Battlefield Games, with one dew soon. so it wont be battlefield

The notion of the name "RedLime" actually made me think of Crusader almost instantly, primarily due to the color of the Silencer's suit. As for a Wing Commander game, I too would love to see a GOOD sequel/spin-off to it or whatever, but it already has so much entries into the series it may/may not be the game they're working on. As for new Syndicate or Road Rash games, why not?

Battlefield is FAR too recent to qualify as a "Classic". System Shock 3 was already being tinkered on by the Godfather game team. My money is on it being a series they discarded like Ultima, Syndicate, Dungeon Keeper, Wing Commander, etc...

My guess is Battlefield. Just for the sake of Starbreeze being a first person shooter developer. But I'm really curious to see what they can do.

This makes me wonder just what on Earth happened to Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.

yeah, my money's on system shock 3.

Hold on, does this mean that Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Athena is going to get delayed?

I would like to see Road Rash in a new form.....kind of like street biking game

please road rash funnest game ever

Heheheh, its gotta by syndicate or wing commander, id go with syndicate. Those other games dont suit their expertise. They make dark and gritty games, which syndicate suits nicely.

If Starbreeze has its way, whatever they produce will be a standout for all gamers alike.

DIablo is Blizzard, not EA.

@heyhamburgerpim: diablo? wrong company. WING COMMANDER PLEAZ

What about Diablo? I loved those games... or going wayyyy back to The Immortal? Those were awesome.

System Shock 3? Oh please let it be System Shock 3!

a new syndicate or Crusader game would be sweet

I hope its system shock 3. I never played the other 2 but Bioshock was definitely the best game of 07 in my opinon. System shock 3( if bioshock was anything like ss 1+2) would more likely be made by starbreeze than the games listed above.

I guarantee it's System Shock 3

WE ALL NEED SYNDICATE IN OUR LIVES!

Vambran - EA needs to stay away from Starbreeze. Vivendi Games needs to stop EA from Working / Buying out this great Dev. Where in the article did it say that EA was buying Starbreeze? Read the whole thing before jumping to conclusions. On that note, isn't EA reworking Need For Speed, trying to get back to basics on this game gone to hell?

Please tell me it's the Crusader: No Regret/No Remorse series
