6. Tie Fighter was absolutely brilliant

Especially the CD version. Damn, I was looking forward to a new Sam and Max, I wish I could find my old copy of the first one.

11. I SO agree

GRRRR!!I am so mad..

They just do half assed star wars games now..

What are they doing next? some star wars game based on tekken??



Talk about a "has been" developer.


And yes I know they "used" to do good star wars games.. but before knights of the old republic(which btw wasnt totally by lucas arts) their last good star wars game was x wing alliance which came in 98 or something

Lucas Arts (AKA Lucasfilm Games) used to be the best game producer - period. Everything with the "Lucas Arts" logo rocked, Adventures , Action-Sims, even Sim-City clones. I'd really like to know, which genius manager decided "hey let's stop making cool games ourselves, we'll sell bad 3rd party Star Wars games instead". :grr:

It's strange, that the best adventures and the best Space-"Sim (Tie Fighter) are 90s productions.

7. For some reason I always thought Sam & Max was Sierra...

did it used to be?

8. SUCK ASS!!..................

I was kinda looking forward to it. I missed "S&M Hit the Road" back in the day. And speaking of KOTOR, why no multiplayer?!? Has the potential of a great MP game.

10. WHAT!?!?!?!?! Lucasarts SUCKS. I guess there will be no Grim Fandgo sequel

I am BEYOND shocked, saddend and PISSED F***KING OFF by this news..FIRST they cancel the Full Throttle sequel now they can the one game that I was waiting for..What for so they can make another suck ass Star Wars Game?????
I guess we can kiss off any kind of hope for a Grim Fandago Sequel. ( Witch was the greatest Lucasarts adventure game ever in my opinion )
The company just took a big dump on what made it special. I will mourn the passing of what was once a great game software company beacuse Lucasarts is dead to me.
I LOVED playing Sam and Max..One of the funnest adventures ever..I still played it now and then.
Oh but I see they are makeing a Battlefield 1942 ripoff with star wars..They have beat that horse to the point of dust.
Lucasarts R.I.P. I will never puchace a game from them till they get the adventure games back where they should be...
