WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) LucasArts teased the announcement late last week on Twitter saying that "amazing news" was coming Monday and that they were "super excited." "You have no idea how tough it is not to start yelling about it! But it's secret! Until Monday!" Edited July 6, 2009 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Aristes Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 http://kotaku.com/5308431/lucasarts-rerele...assics-on-steam Huh... somewhat related.. but... Interestingly the games mentioned aren't the games that most people consider to be classics... Loom, Starfighter? WTF!? WHERE'S MY DARK FORCES! Somewhat related? Apparently, this is the news. This is just too funny. I can't believe that the new game is rerelease of old games. Oh, man, that's too precious.
alanschu Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I don't see where Lucasarts, or Kotaku for that matter, mention anything about a new game. Am I blind?
H Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Cool, now I can buy games I already own again. The generosity of LucasArts truly knows no bounds.
Aristes Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 *sigh* No, Alan, I suppose they didn't really come out and say they were producing a new game. I still think the rereleasing of old games on STEAM is perhaps a bit much for the hype engendered in such a short time in this thread. So, you get a TOMBS point for catching the error. Yay. I still think it's funny.
alanschu Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I agree the enthusiasm is a bit much. But he did say old school gamers would be happy haha.
Aristes Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Actually, I really do plan on buying some. You know I'm a steam fan.
Calax Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 well, they may be watching the partnership to see which games get the most downloads/purchases from the "new" generation to see where they should expand. Of course they're being stupid about it because what they should do is let Double Fine do its' thing, and reboot the Xwing series with Totally Games. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

Gorth Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I don't know any of those games... and I wanted to be excited “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

bhlaab Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I don't know any of those games... and I wanted to be excited Fate of atlantis is worth getting excited over, the rest... eh. They didn't really pick and choose the cream of the crop (The tim schafer and monkey island catalogues are suspiciously missing...)

steelfiredragon Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 went and looked at work. so they are putting some games up for streamloads... meh, the only one I know of is republic comando, but thats it Strength through Mercy Head Torturor of the Cult of the Anti-gnome
Calax Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 http://kotaku.com/5308707/lucasarts-hopes-...adventure-games Looks like it's an experiment, if they see sales on their titles that they release on steam they'll release more of the classics.
