Adventure games do not sell well. I consider Lucas Arts as a publisher, not a game developer. I play Curse of Monkey Island now. I am at Blood Island. We can’t find original games today like this one, because they are risky. Game studios make what they can sell.

I agree. If you go to lucasarts.com, every game they have one their site is a Star Wars knock off. LucasArts lost it’s creativity and now takes popular games and remanufactures them into a star wars version, battlefront is conflict vietnam with stormtoopers etc. If they are going to stay competeitive in the market they need to come up with something new, and stop beating the dead horse that will be Star Wars in just a few years time.

I wanna be a pirate. And a Jedi. And lost in a mansion. And a TIE Fighter pilot (Rebel scum).

I also want some more one off gems like Grim Fandango.

I’ve kind of ceased hoping for them though. So if any ever come along I can just be suprised and insanely happy.

For the moment I’ll just settle for anticipating the work of ex Lucas Arts employees, like Vampyre Story

I’d like to see more good Star Wars games, preferably the likes of Republic Commando. The jedi have been literally done to death, and with a universe as big as the Star Wars franchise has provided, it’s like looking through a small hole in a very large fence.

I’d also like to see a hell of a lot more original titles like Sam & Max, Monkey Island or Armed and Dangerous. It’s games like those that provide this industry with life and stop everything from becoming Frasier 3D.
