Here is a link to an interview with Robert Bowling talking about the Star Wars Mod for COD4 PC
http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/call-of-duty-2011-project/1196687p2.html
Here is what they were talking about
GameSpy: Are we ever going to see mod support for Call of Duty again?
Robert Bowling: I hope so. It's a discussion that we're having now. It's something that we want to do. It's something that I loved in Call of Duty 4, especially the total conversion mods that people did.
GameSpy: Like the Star Wars Mod?
Robert Bowling: Yeah Galactic Warfare from the Black Monkey guys. I loved that stuff and it's something I want to see for Modern Warfare 3 so it's a possibility. Again it's one of those things that we can't start working on until the full game's finished, you know? But it's something that we want to do.
GameSpy: Last question, if you guys could get a movie license and make a Call of Duty out of it, what would be the ultimate one that you think Infinity Ward would like to do? Have you ever toyed with this idea?
Robert Bowling: No, we've never toyed with the idea officially. I mean there's always tons of stuff I would love to do. But no. You threw out the best example of Star Wars because I'm a Star Wars nerd. I would love to make a Star Wars game. That's why I loved Galactic Warfare mod so much, it's because it was everything I wanted, you know?
GameSpy: Did many of the IW guys play it?
Robert Bowling: Yeah. I think I probably play it the most out of anyone in the office, I've been playing the beta. Every time they release a new version I've been playing with those guys. I love those guys. So I probably play it more than anyone in the office but I've been getting more people on the bandwagon. I've been getting our producers and stuff on and checking it out.
GameSpy: So we might see Call of Duty Star Wars in the future? (laughs)
Robert Bowling: I think that's up to Lucas Arts!
So my question is, do you guys think that a COD star wars edition would be a good idea or a bad one?
Do you think Lucas Arts would team up with IW to make this game?
What are your thoughts on the subject because I for one would love to see a COD Star Wars edition (If you played the Mod on COD4, then you would know what I am talking about) and please, lets keep this civil. Thanks everyone for reading.
Also here are some gameplay footage of the COD Star Wars Mod

Lol and you know whats better, today is my B-Day and Chuck Norris himself gave me a thumbs up. This just made my day, thank you.
i only bring chuck norris out for the greatest ideas lol
and happy birthday mate
Thank you, i turn 28 today. I cannot believe how fast time went by. It really feels like yesterday when I was playing Duck Tails and Ninja Gaiden on the NES. Good times and memories.
hahaha im 34 and i still remember playing on the likes of the commadore64 and zx spectrum kids these day dont realise how lucky the are being able to play online and having game that save bloody hell i remember games where you had 3 lives and once you died you had to load the game in all over again none of these check points lol
There were no public beta's and I cannot remember ever really hearing about them until the 2000's. We also had no internet so we needed to learn everything either on our own, through friends, Through game mag's or the official game stratagie guides. What bothers me is that a lot of the games that came out during our childhood are still better then most games that come out today (that's just my opinion).
I agree, many of those old school games were brilliant.
Remember how we had to figure out the games ourselves?
I remember trying to figure out how the hell to pass pokemon back in the good ol gameboy color days
But back to the topic, that would be awesome to see Iw help lucas arts create a star wars game, this is the first i've ever heard of the star wars mod(im not a pc gamer) and its badass.
THATS WIERD, JUST POSTED A QUESTION( WHAT LOADOUT WOULD CHUCK NORRIS RUN) THEN HE TURNS UP HERE. THATS WHY EVERYONE FEARS CHUCK NORRIS. NO WARNING SHOTS, NO SOUND, NOT EVEN A BLACKBIRD CAN FIND HIM!!!!!!
It would be awesome to have Lucas Arts license out the next Battlefront game to either IW/Sledgehammer or DICE.
I would rather see IW make a COD Star Wars game then DICE. If you played the COD4 Star Wars Mod, then you would see how well it plays out with the whole Star Wars theme.
Here is a link to one of the COD4 Star Wars Mod Video's
The only reason I mentioned DICE is because they have more vehicular combat experience (which is a big part of Star Wars).
Would be awesome if they could collaborate (IW handling infantry combat and DICE handling vehicles).
I wouldn't want IW/SH with Activision to make a Battlefront game. Battlefront is very different from COD and it wouldn't be the same. I would like IW/SH to make a COD styled Star Wars game though.
Well maybe not Battlefront but possibly something along the lines of Republic Commando (infantry focused).
I've only played one mission of one of the Republic Commando games (The one where the LAAT/i dropship dropped me off) and I think that would be a good basis of what IW/SH could do.
I lurve the star wars mod, the sad thing is it is miles better than any star wars fps that was commercially released to date.
apart from maybe dark forces but that was basicaly a doom reskin
.
and g-d no i couldnt think of anything worse than the "in name only" iw making a star wars game.
I loved the Galactic Warfare mod, i wish they would bring the people that created the mod to the studio to help develope a CoD : Star Wars. That is a game i would buy. Oh, and happy birthday.
Thank you and I agree also that they should (If the COD Star Wars game is actually ever created) bring in the studio that created the Star Wars Mod since they created the prototype and did such a good job with it. Hey but think about it like this, if IW/SH do decide to release the Mod tools to create things like the Star Wars Mod for MW3 then you can bet your bottom dollar that there will be a newer, updated version of the Star Wars Mod.
I added some footage of the COD4 Star Wars Mod for the people who have not got a chance to see it in action.
Anyone else?

I have added the list to my OP of people who have signed the pentition. If anyone would like to see a COD Star Wars game please sign the pentition so we can show Activision, IW, SH and Lucas Arts that we are very interested in the idea (Hey you never know, this pentition may very well get the Attention of the Dev's).
I don't remember "/sign"-ing but whatever. ![]()
Well I figured since you said "It would be awesome to have Lucas Arts license out the next Battlefront game to either IW/Sledgehammer or DICE" that you liked the idea in general so I took that as a Sign/.
I respect you're opinion but I see it as a very big possibility that a COD Star Wars game would be made as IW has a interest in the idea.
Considering that Infinity Ward is a subsidiary of Activsion and that Lucas Arts holds exclusive rights to develop/license/publish all Star Wars related video games I don't see this "dream team" becoming a reality.
