Star Wars Battlefront 2 Will Come Out in 2017

thegeekdojo.net

Battlefront 2 will feature “bigger and better worlds,” EA CFO Blake Jorgensen said during an earnings call today. The game will also feature content from the new movies so expect to see stuff from Episode VII. The first game only featured content from the original trilogy.

Jorgensen also said that EA plans to release a new Star Wars game every year for the next three to four years. He also confirmed that the Star Wars action game from the Dead Space developers, Visceral, will be coming out next year as well. The third-person action adventure Star Wars game from Titanfall developers, Respawn, was mentioned, but with no planned release window.

With all of that info being dropped in one day, it sounds like we will have plenty of Star Wars video games to keep us busy between movies. I just hope Battlefront 2 is a major improvement.

Meet the 3 New Starter Pokemon of Sun and Moon

Nintendo hit us with quite a bit of new information about Pokemon Sun and Moon today. New starters were revealed and a release date of November 18th, was given.

The water starter is Popplio, a Sea Lion Pokemon. Rowlet is the owl Pokemon. He is a grass flying type. Last, but not least, is Litten. A flaming hairball spitting fire type cat Pokemon. All 3 starter Pokemon are pictured in the image below.

The new region of Pokemon Sun and Moon is called Alola and is Hawaiian inspired.

Also, shown off today is the box art of both games featuring the Sun and Moon legendaries on the front. The Sun cover features a lion Pokemon, while the Moon box art features a bat looking Pokemon. You can get a better look at those two in the trailer at the top of the page.

Initial response from Pokemon fans seem to favor Litten the most, Rowlet second, and Popplio dead last. I personally agree with the masses. I have started every Pokemon game with a water starter and think Popplio is the worst looking one, but as the day has gone by he is starting to grow on me. I will probably still pick him to keep the water starter streak alive.

What’s you take on the new Pokemon starters? Do you love them or hate them? SOund off in the comment section.
