SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — February 8, 2010 — LucasArts and TT Games today announced the development of LEGO® Star Wars™ III: The Clone Wars™. The next chapter in the award-winning LEGO® Star Wars videogame franchise, LEGO® Star Wars III: The Clone Wars will combine the best elements of all previous LEGO® games while adding brand new gameplay to make it the most action-packed LEGO® videogame to date. Developed by the same team at Traveller’s Tales that created the critically acclaimed LEGO® Star Wars and LEGO® Indiana Jones™ series, the game will ship on the Wii™, Nintendo DS™, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, and Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows in the Fall of 2010.

I'll definitely pick this one up... but I'll probably wait it out and grab it once it hits a sub-$30 price.

I agree with you Jeff.  I loved the first two SW Lego games as well as the Indiana Jones games, so this one is a no brainer for me to get.  I don't need to get it right away too, so I can wait until it hits the $19.99 bin.

I knew it was just a matter of time so this is cool.  I tried replaying The Complete Saga last week and it's just such a chore so I ultimately gave up.  I have a feeling Batman & Indy will be the same story for me, but that's okay.

Both of my boys were doing the jump and down woohoo dance this morning when I showed them the ad.  The Complete Saga is pretty much their favorite game right now (and me too :))

I've moved on from Complete Saga but intended to go back.  It's addicting though.  Gotta love the playing time on the games too.  It takes a while to accomplish the majority of it.

My son is going to love this news when I tell him today.  He's still counting down to Harry Potter Lego and now this gives him something else to look forward too.

Trailer (http://www.starwars.com/video/view/001039.html)

More of a teaser, new footage starts about halfway in, and there's not very much of it.

But the main reason for the bump is that this has been delayed to 2011 now.  Amazon shows February.

How can this actually get delayed?  I figure they have the game's engine all sitting there just ready to be re-used...  We need Jared to explain some of this.  ???

The new Lego Harry Potter game was pushed back by at least a few months; I remember seeing a presell thing for it at Target at the beginning of the year which said it was due in March, and it didn't actually come out until a month ago.  So, it happens.

On this, my guess would be that maybe they pushed it back to be able to include stuff from Season Three in it.  Just a guess.

Season 3 content's a good point, I didn't think about something like that bumping it back.  Love these games, so looking forward to this.

Damn...I was hoping for XMas for present reasons.  My boys have played the crap out of all of the Lego games and are now obsessed with Lego HP.  Most of that stuff looked to be from Season 1...

Maybe you can get your boys to hold off on opening gifts until February 15, 2011 (http://www.joystiq.com/2010/11/12/lego-star-wars-3-release-date-february-15-2011/).

my son saved his Christmas money for this one.  I will be picking it up today at TRU - if you buy from them you get a $10 gift card.

I'll be picking it up Friday at Best Buy.  I got a $5 off Reward Zone certificate today in my email so I'll apply that to it.  I'm anxious to waste a ton of time on this over the weekend.

I miss those days as a kid - still remember how hyped I was at Super Mario 2 and The Adventure of Link back in the day.  Hope you and your boys enjoy the game!  I'll wait till later in the year and pick this up used for half price or so as I always do.

I picked this up for the PSP during the week at TRU so I got a $10 gift card with purchase - that will definitely come in handy when the TRU exclusive deluxe sets hit in a couple of weeks...

Anyway, the game itself is really fun - I'm almost done with the story mode play through and I've gone back and completed the first three levels on Free Play - so I'm making pretty good progress.

It seems A LOT shorter than the Lego Star Wars II game for the PSP, but perhaps I haven't fully uncovered everything yet.
