Jeff Ellis: There was a time that Tower of Guns would have been par for first-person shooters. You begin on the ground floor of a tower and proceed to climb to the top, battling an army of murderous robots along the way. There are guns, but none of them are familiar to what we know a gun to be. You can jump not once, not twice, but as many times as you have been able to scrounge together jumping power ups. The story can literally be toggled on or off. It is all very Spartan in its design and very, very, hectic.

Remember in Return of the Jedi when Mon Mothma reveals the rebel's plan to destroy the new Death Star? Of course you do. Well, on the first day of the Star Wars celebration, we lucky press were ushered into a briefing room much like that scene. I took my place around where I think Han, Leia, and (eventually) Luke sat down.

Here at Star Wars Celebration, EA is showing off its upcoming gameStar Wars: Battlefront, and we really like what weve seen thus far. But while the game largely exists in the world of the original trilogy, a free piece of downloadable content announced today will connect J.J. Abrams film with the originals in a very direct way and gives us some new clues about the world ofThe Force Awakens.

We slaughter Clone Troopers as Darth Maul, desecrate the Jedi Temple, and steal a TIE Interceptor.

GameSpot - Last year's Wolfenstein: The New Order took us back to an alternate 1960s where the Nazis had won World War II, much to the displeasure of a gruff B.J. Blazkowicz, who had spent the preceding 14 years in a coma. The upcoming standalone DLC Wolfenstein: The Old Blood takes us back even further in time; all the way back to the 1940s, in fact, and the the ascendance of the Nazi war machine. The Old Blood is being developed by The New Order's Machine Games, and we spoke to executive producer Jerk Gustafsson about what changes to expect in the upcoming game, what new weapons and enemies we'll see, and much more.

In the cavernous halls of Star Wars Celebration, amidst the countless cosplayers and merch peddlers and chipper attendees, there is a circular room. Inside this room is a small amphitheatre modeled after the white briefing room on Home One, the rebel command ship from Return of the Jedi. You might recognize it as the place Admiral Ackbar hosts all his pals when they come over to plot, or you might tell me that the ship is a Mon Calamari Star Cruiser (and until some recent Googling, I would've thought you were making that up). Or you might not know it all.

Even if you count yourself among that latter group of people, you'd have no trouble following what I saw in that small room: the first gameplay demo for Star Wars Battlefront. Though Battlefront is a series with some history set in a universe positively bursting with history, the first scenes of Battlefront in action didn't rely much on referencing the past. Even if you haven't seen a battle on the forest moon of Endor before, it was easy to follow the progression from skirmishes on the fringe of a battlefield, to firefights fought between elevated terrain and pitched positions, to lopsided clashes as lumbering vehicles crashed through the undergrowth and sent soldiers scrambling. This wasn't the debut of a bold new direction or innovative new features; this was Battlefront reintroducing itself to the world.

The return of Battlefront is slated for November 17th of this year, with PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC the target platforms. That's about a month before the movie is set to launch, and indeed, the tie-in announcements have already begun. A free map for the Battle of Jakku, a pivotal battle that follows the events of Return of the Jedi and features heavily in The Force Awakens, will be made available for all Battlefront players on December 8th, while those who pre-order the game will get access on December 1st.

It's easy to see why they'd want to strengthen the connection between the new game and the new film, but the Battlefront I saw is one terested in connecting with Battlefronts' past. It focused heavily on the original trilogy, so I saw a lot of the familiar building blocks that have defined the Battlefront series since its inception. What I saw looked good, albeit scripted to put its best foot forward and light on detail about how this Battlefront is branching out. What remains to be seen is how this Battlefront will fare when it comes to doing what Battlefront games have done best: making the player feel like a heroic soldier, an ace pilot, or a powerful Jedi during the chaos of a battle waged a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
