Lucas Arts should stay with what they do/did good, and that is drawn adventure games. Just thinking about The Dig or Full Throttle or Monkey Island 1/2 makes me wanna play them again. Not to forget Sam & Max - The notsodynamicduo.

Full Throttle 2 was announced a few weeks ago.

Full Throttle 2 ?!?

are you kidding?? full throttle was the only Lucas Arts Adventure that was bad!

why don't they continue masterpieces like Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle...and why do they make Indy5 (or is it 6 already?) into an action game?!

I'm still waiting for a renaissance in adventure games...
like Baldur's Gate made to RPGs

Full Throttle was da bomb! Motorcycles, and voicework by Mark Hamill! YEEHA! Also, you didn't need the damn hint book to win (which is a plus for me).
